So should you cut your hair yourself? Should you be cutting your hair yourself? I would say no, don't do it. Nothing is better than a professional doing it.
But if you really have to, there is one thing, with long hair, that you actually can do. It's one chop. So I'm going to show you.
You will need to take all of your hair and actually brush everything. So it's brushing or combing everything forward. Then go all the way to the end. And what happens here, you will take the scissor and just cut that straight off. What that will do is actually keep all the length that you have here, that goes here. So that won't be touched. And once you cut here, it will actually give you some of the layers in front too, at the same time. So in one shot you can actually make your hair look pretty decent.
The second option would actually be to turn your face sideways, comb your hair in the front, meaning bring all the hair towards you, and actually cut the bottom of it in a straight line. And do the same thing on the other side. That's the only way you can actually reach the back of your head. It won't be perfect, but it will help.
But, like I say, nothing is going to be better than the professional. So don't do it yourself.

i remember my 5 last hair experiences to a salon and they screwed up 5 times.
and it was expensive.
so now i'm screwing up my own hair and it's free.
+Sakuems LOL I laughed way to much. But your so right! That is what got me started on my own and my sons hair.
And now my son is trying himself with a little help from me :)
love it!!
Yeah "professionals" always F up hair no joke every single time I went to a hairdresser they have ALWAYS messed up my hair (cut to dammmmm much!!!)
+Sakuems So true! My hair is actually growing better since I'm using colour that's less than a tenner, as opposed to over ÂŁ100 colour, trim and style. Plus, most hairdressers where I live are very rude and don't care about keeping customers happy. It is very hard to find decent ones, though where I used to live years ago, they were exceptionally.
It comes to something when we want something done properly, we do it the self.
Hahahaha XD Priceless comment :)
For everyone saying "just pay for a cut"....some people simply can't. I was one of those people for about 3 years. When a haircut costs $30-40, and you have to decide whether you spend that money on food or the heat bill, well...you don't get the haircut.
I wish haircuts were that cheap where I live.
I was taking my daughter to salons where a haircut was $15. They always screwed it up, no surprise. A co-worker with waist-length hair told me how she cuts her own hair, and I tried it on my daughter. It worked perfectly and her hair was gorgeous! That was how I trimmed her hair for a year or so. Then I found another technique that I tried, and it worked just as well. No more screwed up haircuts and wasting my money! I cut my hair and my daughter's hair from now on. It takes literally thirty seconds and turns out perfect every time.
Same girl.
Most people are doing alright in life and don't AT ALL understand the concept of people not being able to afford things. It's a foreign concept and actually sad that this many people don't feel the pain of those who can't barely feed themselves. This only means that the concept of charity makes even less sense to them.
@@shelmmii9425 youre totally right, which is really sad. I have learned behaviours from when I had to triage my expenses and decide which bills to pay and scrape money together for food. Those days are over for me, but out of principle I won't pay for certain things. I still cut and colour my own hair, I love second hand clothes, I wash dishes by hand to reduce water bill. When you've literally had to search your house top to bottom to find nickles and pennies to buy food, you realize everything truly does add up. And that there are always people out there who have it worse.
I have very long thick wavy hair. I'm not gonna lie, I have incredible hair. It grows really fast and can get really long đ€·đŒââïž. I always want layers, but hair stylists hate doing it cause it's so long and thick. So they charge me $100 and take 2 hours to cut it. This morning I wanted 5" cut off. Called salon, not working today. Searched youtube = less than a minute and free. I pulled my hair forward like he showed first. Took shears, cut straight across five inches up, Gorgreous haircut. Better than I get at a salon. Took less than a minute and was free. GOT THE CUT OF MY DREAMS FOR FREE. Wish I could share photos. đ€·đŒââïžđ
Thanks for posting! I, too, have long, thick, wavy, coarse hair that grows like weed, lol. *And* blonde with highlights. Sounds like a dream, yes?
It's been a nightmare
I quit my job to WFH a year and a half ago and can no longer afford the expensive upkeep every 8 weeks, so I've been doing root touchups and cutting my bangs myself.
I love how you were so straightforward about how it turned out, so I'm going to try chopping the ends myself, too! đđ
@HamsterDiving*759 wow, your hair sounds hideous. You should just chop it all off.
the girl in this video looks so done with everything
yes hahah
I just watched it with no audio lol
Lol true. Exactly what I was thinking haha
+Leire Rab I wouldn't be happy either if someone combed my hair like that.
+Clouds23x exactly
The reason why I'll do it myself because when I tell my hairstylist I want to get rid of the dead ends she ends up cutting a lot of my hair or if I want layers she will cut too much... So YES I will do myself thank you!
yeah, I don't trust hairstylists lol. haven't gone to a hair salon in 3 years
me too... almost 3 years lol
I told my stylist to cut ALLL the dead ends, but she didn't cut them all! Then I told her to cut alot layers and she only CUT MY BANGS SHORTER AND SOME FUCKED UP LAYERS LIKE WHAT THE FUCK! From now on, I cut my hair myself...(sorry my enhlish)
Me niether lol. I haven't cut my hair in 3 years. Last time I went for a trim I told the lady 1/2 inch ONLY and she tells me "oh honey you have too much hair I take off 2 inch" đ so I got up and left. Lol
This is exactly why I stopped letting other people touch my hair with scissors. I cut my own hair now, especially if I only want a trim, and if I mess up I have no one to blame but myself, which is better than being upset with someone else. Plus, it saves money.
There is only one other person on this earth that I would allow to cut my hair from now on and that's the hairdresser who gave me my first haircut and many cuts after because he knows what he's doing and he does exactly what I ask and when he has something else in mind, he tells me exactly what his plan is and if I'm okay with it, otherwise he doesn't do it.
Step 1: spend 30 minutes curling your hair
Step 2: Rip a brush through your hair and destroy those curls
My thoughts exactly
Selina Go
nza
I get the feeling this entire video was nothing more than him just wanting to touch her hair.
see looks not happy with him
He probably did another tutorial before this on curling hair. She is obviously being paid for her time as a model for his tutorials.
For anyone wondering if the first method works - I just did it to my wife last night. Took one second. She has long hair down to about her mid back. She wanted three inches off and we did that. Looks great. Saved about $20/$25 it would cost at a salon. Looks like Iâm cutting her hair from now on.
Thank you
That's cute. I may try this cut myself.
Thank you I may try it
THANK YOU
Itâs not actually cutting the length of the hair itâs cutting long layers into it that way
Ok. So I just cut my wife's hair as Pierre showed (one cut) and she loves it. She said it is the best hair cut she has ever had. It totally has all the layers. I can't believe how well this worked. Pierre, you are a genius my friend, thank you.
Do you realise how much money in haircuts we've just saved over the next 20 years??
With fine thin hip length hair, I was desparate for a solution that does not cost $75-100. Held out on a hair cut for almost 3 years because i refuse to pay those exuberant costs. Finally mistered up the courage to try this at home after watching multiple videos and tutorials. Stumbled across this video that an 8 year old could easily accomplish. The results were amazing!! For years i jave ask stylist to layer my long hair and few ever get it right. This was the layered haircut of my dreams. Gave my hair loads of texture and volume to my thin locks. The only amendment to the tutorial i made was trimming the long point of hair left over in the back straight across using two fingers, a mirror and snipped away. I will never be back to a salon, thank you sir!
Your review is the one that is convincing me to try this! Thanks
I haven't been to a salon in 5 years, I always just cut it myself. Saves me a ton of money
And saves you a ton of anger.. diy is the best.
Kristina CindriÄ
My mum cuts my hair haha
I had a long Bob last autumn, andI was due for another cut to keep up with the shape basically (I grew it out finally. Too much work to make it lay nicely) so I found a tutorial and did it myself. I loved it! my best friend even commented on it, and her mother is a hair dresser. Now my hair is past my shoulders, and being thin and fine, I think I just need a trim. I don't really have money to spend on my hair this time of year.
ŚąŚŚŚȘ ŚŚŚŚ Ś ŚąŚ Ś€ŚšŚŚšŚŚ
Iâve just mustered up the courage to do this. I was hesitant (despite all the positive comments here) because my hair is really thick. Itâs turned out great! Easily as good as Iâve had at the hairdresser! I would really recommend it. Itâs quick and easy and never had to leave the house. If youâre not sure, just cut less off initially so you can prove to yourself it works, then do it again straight away and cut a bit more off the length. Thanks so much for this videoâ€
Every time I go to a hair Solon they always do it different then what I asked or they screw it up.
So now I cut my own hair and I color my own hair. I may not be the best on doing it myself, I'm not a professional but it still looks good and I save a ton of money. I'm very happy.
I'm too :)
Thank you for this video. My daughter has long hair and it was getting hard to brush. I'm a bit limited on funds the next few weeks, so I did the first option you showed of bringing all her hair forward and cutting it across. I also cut into the line a bit at an angle with the scissors to make the line less blunt. When we combed it back, she was very happy with it! It looks lightly layered around her shoulders! Thank you again.
coming from a guy who works 70-80+ hours a week who has long hair and cant ever get the time to find a stylist because i travel all over the country and most places have closing times that are anywhere between 2-4 oclock p.m and i wouldnt get off work until late.. thank you for the first demonstration. worked like a charm and i didnt have to hastle to be that one dude asking for a womans haircut at a salon for mens hair haha.
Same! Lol
I love how realistic he was!! My hair is thick and almost grazing my thighs, and I'm tired of paying the long hair tax and a tip when I never do anything fancier than a trim and a few long layers. Going to try this đ€
Same! Tired of paying that long hair tax.
I've been using these techniques for about 12 years on my long, fairly thin, straight, baby fine hair and it looks really good to this day. I stopped using a hairdresser because they wouldn't listen to me and always cut wayyyy too much off.. Doing this I'm in control.
How to do this: don't. But here's how you could do it if you have to. But don't
+Harreh Pottah I don't know why but I laughed way too at much at your comment. That's pretty much it
hahaha
Harreh Pottah Lol đ
I know you posted this ages ago, but your comment made me laugh more than anything else I've seen in a long time! (I probably need to get out more!!)
French cynism
I actually tried the first method last night and it looks brilliant. Maybe he's just worried we'll all realise going to a stylist is pointless for simple cuts and we'll put him out of business? All I want is long hair with layers and now I've learned an incredibly simple and effective way of getting that so I can't see myself going to a stylist again until I want a style that's entirely different.
Same! My daughter had beautiful long hair and I cut it myself. It took thirty seconds and looked perfect each time. Unfortunately, we had to cut her hair short because too much hair dye damaged it. She and I are both growing our hair out now, and I'll be the only one cutting them from now on.
That's great. I have long thick hair. But I don't want layers I need to just brush and go
I was cringing so much because he brushed and pulls on her hair so harshly. You could see her holding back on saying "ow".
Good, I'm not the only one who noticed that. I was thinking "she looks like she's in pain"
I knoooow! Damn he's aggressiv đ
Lol u make me laugh so hard. That is nothing. How did he pull? I am a hairdresser. She may be tender headed, but then again she shouldn't be a hair model...
Gille87 I am a stylist too! Then you well know, he had no business actually advancing those ideas as a GOOD way to cut your own hair. People with no formal skills do better than that lol
+TheOtherMartina But hey, don't brush your hair yourself, go to a professional. Nothing like hair breakage professionally caused. :)
I used the first method to cut around an inch off my long hair, and I love the layers! Did exactly what I hoped it would do đ
Yeah sorry, I don't care how professional someone is, I never let anyone touch my hair with scissors anymore. I cut my own hair, especially if I only want a trim, and if I mess up I have no one to blame but myself, which is better than being upset with someone else. Plus, it saves money.
There is only one other person on this earth that I would allow to cut my hair from now on and that's the hairdresser who gave me my first haircut and many cuts after because he knows what he's doing and he does precisely what I ask and when he has something else in mind, he tells me *exactly* what his plan is and if I'm okay with it, otherwise he doesn't do it. And that is what a great hairdresser does.
Control freak đ©
I did this... It worked and my hair came out beautifully layered!!
Which one did you do?
i do it too first on
Hairdressers always ruined my hair... I cut and dye my own hair for three years now and I receive so many compliments on it, way more than when hairdressers did it.
Devil in Her Heart What kind of scissors do you use?
If you're watching this and want to know how to do it properly > first, have a shower and wash+condition hair. When hair is wet, GENTLY comb it all forward from the neck to the front (with conditioner the comb should glide through), so it dangles down in front of you. Make sure there is a thin wall of hair (not a round ponytail), and then cut evenly across in a straight line. This works better the longer the hair is. You will get a slight layering effect.
Is it okay to cut 3 inches ? This is my first hair cut in 3 years and I don't want to get it ruin so I want to confirm first. Thanks.
Yes. As long as everything is below the chin.@@peichun722
@@peichun722 I just cut 6â off of my hair, and it worked exactly as she described, light layers around the face & shoulders
anyone else watching this in 2020 because weâre in quarantine and in desperate need of a haircut? đđ»ââïž
YES
Yes! It kinda worked - i was too chicken to cut further back enough to get all the layers - but it's better than it was (cavewoman)
Yes, Melbourne lockdown and canât get to hair dresser for another 6 weeks so desperate measures đââïž
Meeee
Luckily before quarantine I wanted to grow my hair out anyway, but now I'm in a desperate need of a trim
I have really long hair and watching this guy comb her hair hurt me
Girl, same. Tender headed club
agreed,and I`m not tender headed in the least but,ouch!
Same
Probably why she doesnât look too happy. Suppressing a scream of pain!! đ
Same sisss. Ouch
Wow, she looked like she was in pain. Aren't you supposed to be a professional? How can you brush such fine hair so roughly? You'll damage it and give her terrible split ends. See, this is why I don't go to "professional" people to get my hair done anymore.
He was making a quick video. She agreed to it. She's fine.
@@pagejames8754
Of course, she's fine. If I yanked your hair around like that, I'm sure you'd be fine, too. But it would still have been an uncomfortable experience. That's all I'm saying.
I think his statement of not cutting ur own hair and going to a hair dresser instead is straight out a gimmick. Salons charge a ridiculous amount of money for cutting hair and half the times they don't even do it properly. I've been to numerous hair dressers to get color and cuts and they rob me so much. One person even burned my scalp so badly that I had blisters in the back of my head for an entire week. I will never go to a salon to get my hair colored ever again because of her. Cutting ur hair at home is safe and cheap. All u have to do is learn from trial and error and cut in small amounts. Over time u'll learn.
I agree with you. Never have i had a good cut before i always walk out crying. I think its because most hairstyles tend to be outdated and automatically wanna give everyone layers or a damn scene looking mullet layers layers and more layers especially when their asian! Asians dont know the struggle of thick curly frizzy hair, they're hair is fine silky and flawless. So giving layers or a cut to someone whos hair is thick and curly is the worst. Layers onmy create more volume. Its best to cut it oneself at home.
My problem is that the hairdresser will get scissor-happy and cut like 2 inches off when they'd say they're only gonna cut half an inch off.
You just sound like someone whos never satisfied. As for the person burning you scalp, i understand totally messed up and you shouldnt have to go through that. As for prices, we have to make a living too. Most of the time people dont know much about hair especially when it comes to color. Hair isnt just hair its chemistry. And everyones hair is different. We are taught that certain thing will do this of you have done it this way, and its not like that all of the time because hair is unpredictable. Take the time to actually find a good stylist and prices will be worth it and know that your hair isnt gonna look exactly like the picture you show them because thats not how things work.
Lol yes and he clearly has no idea what he's talking about here in my opinion as it is like if you tried doing what he said your hair will come out so uneven and choppy
I quit going on the chopping block in 2009 and have never regretted it. I'm sure I have saved a ton of money too. I got tired of coming home in tears and forced myself to learn on my own. No one in my local family goes to the shop anymore and they always have a great style. I even rework my wigs now on my own as my own hair starts to thin. One thing he did not say is that cutting straight across will almost always make your hair look like you did it yourself. To point cut the ends makes all the difference! Very interesting.
The fact that he says 'Don't do it yourself' ruins the video's purpose...
agreed..
yesss
Lmfaooo exactly
I know right
I thought it was funny
Guy in Video: "Don't do it yourself."
Me: "I do what I want!"
(Grabs sword, cuts hair to dramatic music, runs off to join the army and save Disney!China)
Lol đ
AHAHAHAHAHA!! JA FEEL
Agree youđ
+pLanetstarBerry I know, right?
Yass YASS YASS
i have been cutting my own hair for 2 yrs and am happier than i have been with virtually all so called 'professional' cuts. If the professionals would listen to clients when we say we want a trim instead of sending us home 4 - 5 inches shorter we wouldn't resort to doing it ourselves (and liking it far better)
Typical hair dresser manhandling and aggressively pulling the hair. No thanks. I always brush my long hair from the bottom up not from the top down like he is doing. He cares about the cut not the condition of the hair.
Breakage, split ends, pulling out hair
what if she's into it
+Micky Mus đđđŸ
+One Bound (Ella) Good point. Looked like she was. :)
+Micky Mus True, but Ethan's comment had merit. And was funny.
Ofcourse he's going to say to go to a professional. If everyone learns how easy it is to cut your hair at home, he's out of job. It's like a plumber showing you how to fix your own messed up pipes.
That's what I was thinking too
I felt the same
+Monica Marie That was my first thought too!
EXACTLY my thoughts the ENTIRE time he spoke...
I agree. I've been cutting my hair since 6th grade, I'm going to be a Junior in high school this year. I got better over the year's, I started using hair clippers on my own and I get multiple compliments. I dye, cut, do treatments for my hair. It saves a lot of money, since my dad pays for everything including haircuts, no more paying for $20 haircuts.
Video title : How to cut long hair yourself
Video: don't
You are so right nothing better than a professional, but for people with compromised immune systems, afraid to have a professional close to them, this is a great gift. Thank you
I would go to "professionals" if they weren't so scissor happy and end up cutting 5 inches when I just ask for a trim. I have cut my own for a while now and actually see the growth
I have been trying to grow my hair for over a year but my hairdresser who says âIâm just removing the split endsâ has managed to make it shorter. I gave up going a year ago and my hair has grown at last. Also it was costing a small fortune.
I like how he is saying don't do it yourself but I am deffinetly watching this vid because Im gonna do it myself
I love this video. I have long hair no layers. It has saved me so much time and money. I wish I could give him a million likes. Thank you!
My guess the model looked pissed off is probably because for one, he ruin and combed down all her beautiful curls. And for two, did you not noticed how ruff that guy was combing her hair? I can tell he was pulling her hair really hard. That hurts!
I don't blame the model for looking angry, For a professional, his method of handling hair is way too rough. The way he kept throwing her hair around, it was actually tangling her hair up. It didn't help that he was violently running that brush through her hair, which looked like it was tugging on it. A professional should know that with hair as long as hers, you're supposed to brush from tip to root, continuing to move the brush downwards. Instead of just throwing it around, he should have taken the time to move it up and over gently, and brush it out slowly. Just because it's supposed to be a quick demonstration, doesn't mean he has to violently handle her hair, he's going to end up damaging it majorly.
I disagree....every hairstylist I been to messes up my hair bad so I have to fix it myself. I always do a better job
Ain't that the truth!!!
Wendy. I stopped going...I do my own for years now..took lots of practice but I know what I want so I just do it
+Zombiehead 17 totally agree with you
hahaa! the model seems to be having fun
Thank you! I just did it, it took 5 minutes and it's perfect...you are my hair hero!!! It's very even so, I'm amazed. It cost $100 where I live to cut the ends on long straight hair. I luckily have long straight hair which seems to work well with this cut.
WTF this is NOT how comb or brush long hair, you're destroying it.
Which is why she probably has to go to her stylist every couple of months... bringing him a whole lot of money...
this is how you comb it, so yeah.
He looks so rough with her hair half the time, yanking it around like she has no feeling in her head. OUCH.
I agree
That is why I don't like hairdressers...
1) this guy does not know how to brush other peoples hair.
2) he ruined her nice curls
3) he's snobby
4) he showed you a trick he doesn't recommend
Not a snob, just a French man
@@allisonjourden587 what's the difference?? LOL just kidding.
Because people will do it anyway so heâs showing them how to not screw it up. And who cares if he brushed out her curls đ sheâs at a salon ffs. If anyone is âsnobbyâ here itâs you.
Well, he is French.
All french aren't like him. Thanks đ
So during the pandemic I did the 1st method. Worked great. Honestly never been happier with my hair. It's still long, but not too heavy because it layers my hair. Been over 3 years since I been to a professional. Might never go again. lol.
I did this last night, and it worked like a charm!!
I have long, thick, coarse, VERY wavy hair.
I quit my job to WFH, so on a very tight budget right now
My hair was almost down to the middle of my back so I said, scr*w it -- I bent over and gathered my hair together (I didn't brush it first because it's just too wavy), pulled it a little taut and just chopped it. About 4 1/2 inches.
And that was it! Looks and feels great. I even have the layers I've always wanted, that I never got my stylist to do the way I wanted, which was what I got with this easy cut. Go figure...
Keep in mind people that he is seriously giving you the best advice. I do this with my hair and it works just fine, however some people are uncoordinated and miss the mark. With that said, be thankful w/out the criticism please.
Love the honesty! I will go to professional stylist only if I cut my very long hair badly. I tend to stay away because many whack off inches more than I specified. And once it's gone, it's GONE!
2:11 Iâm ROFLMAO at the look of absolute disgust that the hair stylist gives at the very end when he says, âLike I say, nothing is going to be better than a professional, so...donât do it yourself.âđđđđđ
You can do this method on medium length hair too. If you want shorter layers then cut it with this method and then section off the top half of your hair, once again pull all your hair forward into a section in the front, and chop away! Doing this method in sections turns out a little better in my opinion. Also, using a pony as a guide works wonders.
The hair model looks pissed off
I would be very surprised if a hairdresser actually encouraged people to cut their own hair regardless of wether the end result is a good or a bad haircut. They cut hair for a living so they will encourage people to depend on their services. I cut my own hair, with great results and I am very very happy with it and I know that many people do the same. Cutting your own hair is great, saves money and can be fun to learn a new skill(s)! Spend time researching what you want to do and only cut the smallest amount. You may get a happy suprise!
Calm down! Don't brush these hair so hard! I'm not a hairdresser, but I understand that it's too much!
She have beautiful hair, she is beautiful!
I'm ALWAYS more satisfied when I cut my own hair over a professional. I don't care if I don't have the proper techniques, it comes out looking great. Hair dressers have made my hair uneven and sloppy. They don't know what I want. I do.
The model was like: getting your hands off my golden lovely beautiful and already amazing hair !!!
I'm a metalhead with long hair. I just need a trim, I don't need to look pretty. Thanks for the video! đ€
Perfect! Thank you!
My hair were really long (under the bottom) so it was really easy to do with a sharp pair of scissors. I used a plastic clamp (the ones used to close^^ for food, like chips...etc.) to really block the hair and cut straight. I actually started with the second method to get a sideways layering then finished by cutting just a little (putting the plastic clamp just at the limit where the back bottom hair where not clamped any more and cut the rest to get a slight vertical layering. The results is really nice. I did it on dry hair, washed them afterward and it's really nice (at least on wavy long hair)
I've been doing the first method for years but just recently realized that because I have a side part the framing around my face isn't even when I do it. So I went to the hair salon for the first time in my life last week and explained what I needed but they hardly knew what I was talking about and gave me a bunch of compliments on my layers. They could have been trying to flatter me but honestly they hardly took any hair off to fix it. It looked almost exactly the same. So I basically paid them $10 for a delicious smelling wash and some reassurance. đ
"Yeah don't do it yourself" = we won't have any clients
That guy motivates us so much
The model in this video is so gorgeous omg. And so is her hairrr
I've cut my hair already for 16 years and my gf's hair now too, thx for the video
they look like they hate each other LMAOđđ
he's really selling it to us isn't he? LOL
I just did mine in 20 sec and its pretty good. Thank you i saved my money.
He's definetly correct by saying keep it to the professionals...but I must say this video came in handy for me with waste long hair needing a simple touch up while I was unable to get to the salon during the COVID-19 shutdowns. đ
I currently have waist length hair, do you recommend doing the unicorn ponytail and then the look to the side and cut for both sides? I dont want to cut off so much length
@@saraev1119 whatever floats your boat!!!
LOL!!!! The best way to cut long hair yourself is to NOT cut long hair yourself. BEST HOW-TO VIDEO EVARR!!
I love you and your videos.
Wrong. You should not wash your hair everyday because you're ripping off your scalp's natural hair. And if is really oily, then wash it every other day. And if you can, wash it twice a week. It gets really oily because is used to be ripped off oils everyday, to make itself stable it produces excess oil. Sort of common sense. I'm not trying to be offensive or anything btw. Just so you know.

no. washing your hair everyday causes it to overproduce sebum. Use a dry shampoo if you have to "clean" it every day, but do not put soap/wet shampoo with all the sulfates in your hair every day.

Shampoos strip your hair of the natural oils which protect your hair, over washing is the only reason for needing to use extra products like hair oils to compensate for the loss of moisture and stop your hair drying out. So don't wash your hair as often because it's a con to get you to buy more products! As has been said once a week (depending on how oily your scalp gets) is often enough to wash.
Kendahke M Well it depends on the person. Myself and brother have extremely oily hair. I can go weeks with no washing and it is greasy! By the 2nd day. I wish I could go a week without washing it. It really depends on what you inherited to some degree. I do not use hair products. Hair is very soft otherwise. And cutting one's own hair, do my fringe all the time!
Thank you so much for this! My hair feels SO much better (it had gotten really brittle by this point đŹ) and it looks just fine! not ideal but during lockdown this was a great 'for now' option! đ
I like an instructor who will just answer the question, advise against it, and leave me to make my own decisions
The 1st cut, if you hold the hair up higher, itâll create more shorter layers towards the top.
Thanks for that tip đđŒ
Why did he even agree to do this if he was going to discourage viewers twice? lol

Some Anon i took as a, if you must cut your own hair then do it this way. I cut mine the second way.
Show the model some respect. You are pulling her hair harsh. Jeez.
That model is so beautiful with most beautiful hair!!!!!
Merci Monsieur! I just did this in Salon du la quarantine (AKA at my house) and it worked!
I model for hair stylists quite often and yes, yes it does hurt. I'm pretty good at keeping a poker face, unlike this young lady! I actually have a lot of short hairs that have grown back after they've been yanked out by overzealous stylists. I find young students tend to be better hairdressers overall as they actually care about the hair, experience apparently leads to a lack of empathy.
True that !!!!!!!!!!!! Amen !
***** Obviously the experienced hair dressers can cut hair better but when did quality of cut become more important than caring for the hair and client?
Hmmm I never thought of this as I typically look for older stylists based on experience. That said I also have a hard rule that if I do not like your hair you cannot cut mine. đ€·đ»ââïž I have very long hair and my experience is often that the stylist subconsciously mimics their own style. I am not against others having vastly different styles I just want what I am paying for on my own head :)
i feel like she's cursing in her head the whole time
Check out the new video !!

This really works you guys!!!!! Itâs one easy cut and I have salon perfect long layers!!??? I am so happy with this â€ïžâ€ïž
*teaches you how to cut your hair yourself*
Says "don't do it yourself"
AHAHAH the model looks so annoyed
I did this but in many layers from long to short and put a fringe twist then cut. Thank you. I love my hair.
Who knew when this video was posted, that there would come a day when going to a professional wouldn't be an option. But here it is, during a global pandemic. Thankful for it now.
dang it's not a rope why are you pulling so hard on the hair
i agree with vancityguri. I've had hair knee-length and now it's past my hips again. I will never go to a hairdresser again! They just want to CUT CUT CUT! They are butchers. They can't even cut in a straight line. I've been to several and one made me look like a clown after his perm. Stay away from them IF you really want long gorgeous hair. I trim my own hair now and am never disappointed.
Okey...real tip... if you really know how to cut your hair and really know how you want your hair...Do it... actually hairstylist is here only if you actually don't know how to cut your hair or don't know what you want....
Best at home hair cut video that doesn't insult hairdressers thankyou.
Her beautiful curls are gone ! :( He looked rough handling her hair. Ouch. The model looked very mad haha.
Why is this titled 'How to Cut Long Hair Yourself'??? The only information provided was a snarky hairdresser yanking on a head of hair telling all of us not to cut our hair by ourselves... đł đHairdressers like the one in this video are exactly WHY I'm looking for ways to cut my own hair.... Sheesh.
but he gave us valuable information. I think that was better than information from any other internet "gurus". he only said that because it's risky and it can result in disaster. so it was like "if you really have to..." .... damn. internet is full of whiners.
@@urnice4172 Yes I Agree
Simple instructions on how to cut long hair by your self. I did it with good results. Canât believe what all these whingers are complaining about with the model looking pissed off etc
Every time I have gone to a "PROFESSIONAL" they do exactly what I asked them NOT to do and they mess up my hair! I don't care if its a cut or color. Every single time no matter which one I go to. So I do my own and I am happy with the results.
Video; "how to cut long hair yourself"
Him; don't do it yourself.
Well wtf was the purpose of this video.
lol yes dont do it yourself. he want you to go get cut by him
technically the man was cutting her hair. so the title is totally misleading
If hes a "professional", keep him away from my hair. I don't want my hair ripped out of my scalp. Thanks.

Way to say it
I did this and it turned out great, I have been wanting to cut my hair so bad, since covid I havent had it done in a long time..thank you so much..
I have curly hair that reaches the middle of my back.
Every time I go to the salon it costs me at least $100.00 for a trim. (Trim and styling fee)
This is day 4 of my straightened hair (hair wash day) so I decided to try out this tutorial.
I tipped my head forward, combed the hair through, gathered my hair in my hand and trimmed about an inch with the other hand.
It was so easy, and it looks great.
I will be doing this from now on!
My tip would be to do this on straight dry hair, with sharp scissors.
lol the model does not look happy that her curls got brushed out! :P
Make sure you don't take off the model's head while brushing...xD and it would have been more significant if she did it herself ;as in this is a DIY video?!?
***** I also agree omg I couldnt even look at how he did that I could hear the hair snap
She Looked So Uncomfortable
As someone who cuts her own hair and that of her kids and husband (well husband is frequently shaven) And has been doing it for over 10 years (gosh I should have saved all that money I saved!) I'd say try it! If you don't like it it will grow back!
Just please cut your hair when it is wet. If its not wet you won't get a nice and clean cut (and your cut off ends will fly everywhere). And you will have some pieces of hair that are longer then they should be because they were not pulled upp thight enough with the rest.
And don't start off (to) short... you can always cut again but you can't glue it back on! ;)
I've had such nightmarish experiences with hairdressers I never want to go again. However, the diy videos aren't great. Like this one, as he doesn't cut the hair we don't know how it would look to use his method. In other videos they deliberately don't show the end result properly. Some just flick their hair so you can't tell if its even or not.
This looks like a simple method so I'll try it, my hair is very long so it won't hurt. And I don't have to spend nights in tears over someone else's handy work.
