totally different and it may well go very wrong.
Sike. It actually did not go wrong. It went very right. I just cut my hair on YouTube, and Im super
excited with the way that it turned out.
So, Im gonna share this tutorial with you
guys. This is for all of you busy women out there,
busy students on the go, busy moms--all you women who are looking to give yourself a little
trim without spending that extra cash. Alright, guys. So, I hope you enjoy this tutorial.
Thank you so much for watching and for subscribing. Dont forget to follow me on my social media
platforms--Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and my blog. I love you guys. I hope you enjoy.
Alright, guys. Here is everything that Ill be using for
this tutorial. A garbage bag to create a little protector
for my clothes, a paddle brush, a comb, hair scissors, some hair elastics, and just some
water in a water bottle. First thing that I am going to do is brush
this hair to make it as straight as possible.
I already washed my hair maybe 40 minutes
prior to filming this tutorial, but its already kind of dry. So, Im going to need to spritz it with
some water to get it a little bit more damp. Next, Im gonna take my garbage bag and
some scissors, and Im gonna create a little t-shirt--a little protective t-shirt for my
clothes and also for my room because Im not trying to have any hair in my video room. So, I just cut out a hole for my head.
That should be big enough, and then Im
gonna cut out some arm holes. I think Im just gonna cut all the way down. Then, Im gonna put this creation over my
head. Perfect.
Exactly what I was looking for. Alright. So, now that Im cutting my hair, my table
and my floor will be protected. Im gonna flip all of my hair forward.
Im gonna brush it out one more time, and
then Im going to separate it in the middle. Im gonna create a part using this comb. Im gonna keep it as straight and even as
possible so that both sides of my hair are equal, meaning that theres the same amount
of hair in this side as in this side. I gotta say, Im a little nervous.
Ive done this countless times, but Ive
never done this on camera. So, Im afraid that I may mess up, but I
hope I wont. I find that working with wet hair is much
easier than working with dry hair. So, thats why Im doing that.
Im gonna brush it out one more time. Because my hair is layered, I just want to
trim the bottom part of my hair. So, the longest layer. What Im gonna do is take about this much
off.
Whew, here it goes. And then, Im gonna use my comb to make
it even straighter. Now, that actually looks a lot more than an
inch and a half--more like two inches and a half, but thats okay. My hair was dead anyway.
Okay. Time to make them match. Im gonna repeat the same thing on the other
side. Brush it out, take it into my fingers, use
my fingers as a guide first, and then use the comb for a straight edge.
Straight enough. Next thing Im gonna do is gather up all
of my hair in this front pony. This could be a style, huh? And Im just gonna secure it with an elastic,
brush it out, and then Im gonna chop a little bit from the bottom of the pony. Something like this.
Now, because you dont want everything to
be super straight, you can go into the hair and cut vertically, like so. It also helps to sort of twist the hair and
cut it at a diagonal. Especially if you have layers, this is a great
trick for layers. Woo.
Okay. Elastic off. Im gonna split my hair down the center
one more time and Im just gonna do the same thing--cutting upwards--on each of the
two sides. Okay.
Combing this hair, picking it up with my fingers,
and Im gonna flip over the ends so I can see them and so that you can see them. Something like this, and then Im going
to sporadically go in and gently cut on a vertical angle. Same thing on the other side. Just a little vertical action.
This helps to sort of sheer out the volume
of your ends because you dont want your hair to kind of look like a bell. Its not not cute. You want it to be thinner on the bottom so
that its nice and fluffy and full of volume on the top. Just spraying over the front of my hair because
Im gonna do a little trim here too.
Im getting really ambitious here. Im going to go down on a sort of diagonal
and very gently trim off that angle like that. Cool. Im not gonna get too crazy because, honestly,
I dont even know if this is gonna look good.
Im hoping it will. And I promise you this is much easier to do
in the comfort of your own bathroom in front of your mirror then in front of the camera. There we go. If youre a righty, just use your right
hand.
Just flip it over, and get this sort of angle
going, and boom. Just making sure that these two are even. Alright. Let me blow dry this hair and Ill be right
back with the final result.
Yikes. Alright, and here is the big reveal. Im gonna push all of my hair to the front
so you could really see it. Not bad, huh? What do you guys think? Heres what it looks like from the back.
I personally have not seen it, but Lee says
it looks good. So, I trust him. I think its a yay. Honestly, Im really, really happy with
the way that it turned out.
I was super nervous, kinda jittery during
the whole tutorial part--especially when I. Was cutting the hair--but now I can breathe
out a big sigh of relief--phew--and Im really happy that this video can be helpful
to some of you. Especially with school right around the corner,
I know all of you busy students, busy moms, busy women on the go, this is kinda something
that will make your life a little bit easier because, lets face it, hair cuts and trims
cost about the same and who has time to get them every three to four months? I certainly dont. This is exactly why I made this tutorial for
you guys.
So, thank you guys so much for watching. I hope you enjoyed it. Ill see you in the next one. Muah.
Do you know how to comb hair?.
