 Alright guys, so we're gonna start off today's technique We're gonna be cutting a curly layered haircut can't wait to walk you guys through this So the sectioning is very simple. It's straight down the center So we're doing a center parting and then I'm working the round of the head with my next section So I take a diagonal back parting and then I pull everything over right above the nose Angling my fingers just slightly Creating almost like a triangle to the parting right so the partings angle diagonal back And then my finger angle is angle diagonal forward and that's gonna create a nice extreme kind of Push of the weight and you can see it right there how it gets short to long and then I'm gonna switch up my techniques So notice that my comb is also a razor. So I'm using the Donald Scott carving comb Which is available on freesaloneducation.com So I use that tool as my comb I also have a scissor so what I'm doing is creating a nice blunt cut for the fringe and then a soft cut For the face frame so notice how I split it right at the parietal ridge area right where that head starts to curve down I bring everything over to me cut it blunt with the scissor Get myself a nice hard line and then as I work down the face frame I switch up my technique using the razor to create almost a scooping motion with that razor To create a nice soft face frame around the face now. This is going to be a curly hair finish I'm gonna diffuse the hair. We're gonna make it super curly So you guys will be able to see how this haircut looks on curly hair now a couple things. I'm doing I'm using a very wide tooth comb So if I was working with curly hair, which I am here If I'm working with curly hair, I'm gonna use wide a wide tooth comb because that's gonna give me less tension I don't want to pull the hair too far from where it's gonna want to live naturally, right? So I'll work through now a switch up of this technique once I get a few inches back on the head shape I go all razor I go all in with the razor Using the razor to create a really nice soft edge to the layering technique So what we're doing is we're creating layers around the face But then also those layers are coming from the back of the head as well So we're gonna push some weight from the front push it off to the back So our heaviest point at this point of the haircut is gonna be in the back of the head So bringing everything over to me cutting it with the razor nice soft edge to the finish and That is the first side so you can see all the layers that pop how how exciting this haircut gets Now to do the other side what I'm gonna do is take out just a little bit from the very front and then I'm going to bring over The other side and use that as my guideline One thing I didn't share with you guys at the very beginning in this video that I wish I would have mixed in at The beginning was that I prepared the hair with Donald Scott prepare which is a razor cutting lotion So it helps with the slip and the glide of the razor over the hair so make sure that anytime you're doing a razor cut you have it a fresh blade obviously and Donald Scott prepare really helps to keep the hair nice and conditioned and healthy as I'm working through it so again going through with the blunt cut of the scissor in the fringe area and Then using that razor tool to cut the rest of the section So using the piece that I just cut as the guide and then I slide that razor down Creating that scooped effect and getting a really nice feel to the face frame So we'll continue doing the same thing for a couple sections cutting with the blunt scissor on the top of the head And then as I move down to the side switching to that razor This is why the carving comb was invented so you could have three tools in your hand at once a comb a razor and A scissor and I can work and mix and match those techniques so a scissor blunt cut here and Then I'm going to go down and I'm going to slide and glide that razor through the face frame So now I've moved a few inches up the head So now I'm going to go all razor and that's how I like to work it now If you guys don't have a carving comb and you don't want need to purchase anything right now You can use a regular razor for this technique as well Just switch just grab your razor tool and use it and then grab your scissor tool. It's not that big of a deal It's just kind of convenient to be able to hold them all at the same time Also, this razor is available like I said on freeslawneducation.com and it's 39 bucks. So it's nothing like crazy It's not a super expensive tool it comes in a wide tooth comb and a fine tooth comb so you can get both So you could see how those layers move and they work their way back on the head shape now We're going to work into the back of the head. I'm going to use the 50% cutting side of this razor So one side has a hundred percent cutting the other side has 50% cutting So I just slide that 50% cutting from the occipital bone down Which creates a little extra pop of layering in the back of the head to really bring The shape to this haircut in the back So now you can see all those layers. I'm going to use joyco joy whip a hold number seven It's a firm hold foam. You don't need a lot of it put it throughout the hair And then I go in with my second product, which is the defy damage Protective shield from joyco, which is a bond protector and it's also a heat protectant So everything we're doing is to protect the hair to build it up and then bam look at that tons of Curl to the hair just using a diffuser working our diffuser into the hair on low Airflow high heat and just blow drying that hair nice And curly and then the last thing I do I just finish it with a little bit of hair spray And then I'm going to go in and do a tiny bit of dry cutting just to finalize my shape I like how everything's kind of built up in there But I just go around the perimeter do a little bit of tease cutting Which is a half open half close of the scissor and I work that around and I also go through right in the face Frame area and I build I just take out a little bit of weight Throughout that as well. So just taking some pieces random pieces going in and cutting to finalize that shape So here is our final look.
