    I have curly hair and high density hair so styling it with a comb is really hard even with conditioner or water to soften the hair strands, this vid helped me a lot and now know the solution to it only matter is there are no professional stylists or barber who knows how to do this in my town.

    I have thick hair and they always want to thin out my hair but the hair doesn't bother me unless it's hanging in my eyes. The length of the hair weighs it down. I tried thinning out my bangs but it's temporary. Your hair always goes back to how it was naturally.

    Be wary if a stylist suggest thinning your hair. New one did that to me today, I now look like I have a thin hair problem! And my hair was thick. I think I just needed a few layers, but she went to town in just 3 quick zips! It will take a good year to regrow the damage she did today.

    and it costs the person with trust issues reason why they cut their own hair.

    I did go to my hair stylist just around a month ago and asked her to thin my hair, since she really loves my hair, she usually doesn't thin almost anything at all so I had to tell her to continue thinning like 5 times and she still didn't thin it enough.

    How long it takes to grow back?

    would you recommend using a relaxer to straighten hair as thick as the one in this video or would it damage it too much?

      Way to damaging the hair is fine it will fry it off maybe a keratin smoothing treatment

    Okay- but my hair is only curly after I take out a little weight? Is that okay?

    In your video from June 1 you said you are not a fan of the multiple light chomps, instead you let the hair fall and do one big chomp. Here you use multiple small cuts. Which one is better? Why are you using light cuts now?

      different type of cut, different technique

    What can be done about bulky curly hair? I’m desperate with my stylist on vacation and he doesn’t trust anyone with my hair 😅

    I already have thin hair and my barber always thin me more. I always told him that i want thick hair and he always thin my hair. I change barber almost every time and they are all the same

    would this work with wavy hair if you straighten it before you thin it out?
