Long layering/long graduation part 4- shaping the front

[colakissed]

im going to try this tonight on a wig before i do it for real. im going to do it just like you did. wish me luck ! it looks easy enough. and you made it so clear! thanks

[xxaprunexx]

@colakissed Glad you felt confident to try this! It can be confusing at first while you work out which way to cut on each side (up or down) is more comfortable for you. Hope you find it easy!

[jorgeargento2010]

siempre que cortes una graduacion en los laterales debes pararte en el lado opuesto,si cortas el lateral derecho parate sobre la izquierda de tu modelo y veras que tus manos se acomodaran mejor. esta muy bien lo que haces solo queria dasrte un consejo ya que en esta hermosa profecion todos aprendemos un poquito de todos.saludos

This is exactly the type of video I was looking for! Simple, basics and straight to the point! Well done!!

[trixieuk]

Can I ask, why are you pulling the left section 'out' the way, yet the right section is kept quite close to the face? Does it matter what angle you're pulling the hair out?

[xxaprunexx]

@trixieuk Hi, in answer to your question - I'm right handed so I find I have to cut upwards on one side and downwards on the other side. Everybody finds that they have an easy side to cut and a more difficult side for this reason. As long as your scissors are curving round in the same shape, and you keep checking the length on both sides then it doesn't matter all that much what angle you hold the hair

very helpful :) thanks

@farheennaz1 Glad you found it helpful :)

[kiraesque]

thank you for actually showing us the cut! most videos are just talking and advanced techniques! you need the basics first! thank you!!

[xxaprunexx]

@kiraesque Thanks very much! I wanted to show the basics and not do anything too fancy

[muskndusk]

I thought most hairdressers did the overall shape first then put in the layers?

[xxaprunexx]

@muskndusk it depends. Those hairdressers are probably doing a forward layer, in which case they pull everything forward right from the back first, creating more of a V cut on the length at the same time.

[samalmendoy]

thanks a lot it is amazing haircut

[xxaprunexx]

@samalmendoy You're welcome! Glad you liked it

[jerseygirl523]

I am an owner of a salon who watched all 4 of your tutorials, and i think you did a great job! You are really helping alot of students and stylists to have better knowledge of how to do layers 'correctly'. There are stylists everywhere who have been cutting hair for yrs who STILL do not cut layers properly. Great job! :)

[biglovelydoodle]

Hi! I really love your videos. Anyway, I'm attempting to do this cut on myself but I have a sideswept bang. Well, not so much sideswept...I had a straight accross bang and it's grown out enough so i can comb it to the side with my part...should I follow the steps exactly as in the video, or are there alternate steps I should follow due to the bang?

[xxaprunexx]

@biglovelydoodle you can still follow the steps shown in the video. If you want, you can clip your bangs out of the way while you do the haircut then after youve shaped around the front let your bangs down and blend them into the rest of the hair by chipping into the ends to break up the line. And you always perform this haircut on a centre part, then part it at the side once youve finished the cut to make sure it is balanced so you wont have to do anything differently there either

[miandalus]

Short, long too if you want to. You are amazing to do this for all us people who need good teaching!! haha, but yes that is me, I can't learn from class or a book. I'd be willing to buy your videos.

[xxaprunexx]

@miandalus Ok, I'll do those for you. And Thanks! I just enjoy sharing my own skills as I know how hard it was for me learning - I couldn't find the right aids anywhere and I found it frustrating.

[miandalus]

Thanks for this demo, it helped me alot!!! Good teaching girl!, do you know how to do the A-line cut?

[xxaprunexx]

@miandalus thanks very much! Do you mean an A-line cut on long hair, or an A-line bob haircut? Let me know and I'll try to get a video up for you

[yangzom1]

[rocaeterna99]

I would like to learn to do a very short haircut in the back and long on the top, could you please help me? Thank you and God Bless you

[xxaprunexx]

I will add a short haircut like this to my List of videos to do! Thanks

[rocaeterna99]

Thank you very much for this videos, I really learned a lot. Could you do a Bob cut hair step by step? I'll be very glad. God Bless You.

[xxaprunexx]

Glad to help :) I have done a video on a concave, one-length bob, but the next one will be a graduated bob (the modern wedged bob) so check back soon for that video. Thanks for watching

[rocaeterna99]
