 Hey guys, this is Matt Beck from freesaloneducation.com and I'm happy to bring you guys another haircut this week. This week we stayed a little bit longer than last time so we didn't go with the bob action. We actually went in with a nice medium length layered haircut. This is a little bit shorter layers but it could be transferred into a longer haircut as well. So don't be discouraged by that. If you wanna do a longer haircut, go for it. This mannequin just only has so much hair. I love this haircut because it's a very simple haircut to do. It's only a few different panels or sections within the haircut so we're gonna break it down obviously in a second but it's just one section in the back and then we have two, three and then the fringe area is completely separate. So it's a really easy haircut to do. You're gonna be able to use it in the salon. That's the most important part and you get these really killer cool layers and the best part about this haircut, you could wear it on straight hair or obviously wavy hair and it has a really nice shape to it. So I'm psyched about the haircut. I hope you guys enjoy it. Please leave your comments below and let's get started. All right guys, so we're gonna break down the tools that I used and they're all available on freesaloneducation.com. We got the Mizetani DB20 scissor, my favorite scissor. Also the Donald Scott carving comb, wide. YS Park 337 comb, YS Park shark clips and prepare liquid tool glide. So we start off the haircut with a center parting that goes all the way down center back just to make it easy. And then we section off a V shape in the fringe area two inches up and then you can see from mid crown down to behind the ear, a diagonal forward section. And that is it. There's really one panel on the back and then we work off of two panels in the mid part of the head and then the fringe section. So we're gonna start off the haircut by bringing the hair directly down, everything straight down. We're cutting a square line in the back. This is really just to clean up the ends. So any guests that you have that comes into the salon, you wanna get that nice clean line first in this haircut and then we're gonna go in and create our layering after. All right, so we're gonna work off pie shaped sectioning in the back. So moving more and more diagonal forward as we go and we're gonna create concave layers. So this is really just elevating the hair straight up from the head and then kicking your finger angle up just a little bit to create a little more of that concave feel to the haircut. If we were to come straight out of the head that would be more convex. We're trying to collapse the shape and create more shorter layers within the haircut. So you can see just it's only a few sections. With longer hair, you don't have to necessarily, depending on the density of the hair, take as small of sections. So we're gonna move through this haircut. Sorry about that angle, not as good. But you can see it just creates nice short layers right around the occipital bone area. All right, now we're gonna move to the front taking diagonal forward sections and I'm determining my length based on how short I want the face frame to be. So if you have to, you can drop it down and just check it. But real simple, I went a little shorter with this one. I wanted some real nice pop to the layering throughout the haircut. And I'm just bringing everything to that stationary guide. And my finger angle is pretty much following the head shape at this point. So right around the forehead and how that forehead curves, that's what my finger is doing. And it's sitting, you can't see that angle as well. But bringing the hair directly forward right over that left eye. So, pretty simple. Again, stationary guide, bringing everything forward until there's no hair left to cut. So you're gonna keep working that sectioning and that parting all the way through until there's nothing left. And that'll give you that connects the front and the back of the haircut. You can see it's a nice face frame, a lot of pieces in there. And the layering just has a lot of movement. It's really, really cool haircut. Now we're gonna grab our guide from the side that we just cut and we're gonna bring it over. So I just grab a little piece of that guide and that'll connect the two sides together. Now, a lot of you will probably have questions about if it's not a center part. This haircut, there's no real parting to it. We're doing a broken front fringe and then the layers just kind of fall. So you'll see, you can see at the beginning of the video, it's really just a bunch of choppy layers and it doesn't have a definite parting within the haircut. So this would be a great haircut for somebody that's not looking to part it on one side, but if they were going to, you just adjust it, do the same exact thing, but just make sure that you're doing it based off of their parting. So you can see how the layers fall. I love the movement in them. Now we're gonna take the Donald Scott Prepare Liquid Tool Glide. What I love about this product is it just makes the hair so silky and has a nice slip to it. So when you're razor cutting, even cutting with scissors, it allows you to glide to the hair really easy and detangles the hair really well. So we're gonna use the carving comb wide. I'm gonna go through and I'm gonna use big strokes with the razor, a nice vertical section down. The bigger the stroke, the more broken the fringe will be. When I say broken, I mean like a shattered feel to it. So I cut my first part right above the nose and then I'm just gonna slide the razor off of that using the center part as my guide and just slide the razor down. So it gives me a nice V shape to the fringe and it's not just a big straight across bang, I guess you could say. So you can see nice soft feel, a lot of layering, a lot of movement, a lot of choppiness. That's what I really love about this haircut. It's just really easy to style. They can wear it curly, they can wear it straight. So we go in with some Bercato Cloud 9 blow-dry serum. I like this, we're gonna use a round brush really quickly. But I just go around the head, I'm working diagonal forward with the round brush, going back and forth with the sections, just creating a nice wave to the haircut. So we'll go through, we're gonna style it up. I wish I could blow-dry this fast in the salon, that would be great. Working our way through. Still working diagonal forward. Using the Ergo round brush, I love those round brushes. You could see, because of the concave layering throughout the whole haircut pretty much, you could see how soft the ends are. The ends aren't real thick. So this haircut is great for long hair, for medium length hair. You can really do it on any length that you want. So a lot of people are asking what my favorite long layered haircut is. This is really it. The mannequin just doesn't have very long hair. But I would do the same exact technique on longer hair. So I just go through, I take a nice vertical section, you could call it horizontal, whatever you wanna call it, through the top and I point cut through that just to soften the top layering. But not too much. Not really getting into dry cutting in this haircut because I like the result of it already. So little brocato, maximum hold hairspray to finish off the result. Here's the haircut. All right guys, so here is the end result. Got our mannequin, I'm shaking it. This is the end result. A lot of layers, a lot of movement, broken up fringe. I love the look of this haircut. It's very salon friendly, very modern. So you can use it right away in the salon. So I'd love to see your results. Make sure you hashtag free salon education on Instagram so we can see your results.
