 All right guys another disgusting day in New Hope very uninspiring weather you can see it's pretty gross but we did do a cool haircut so I'm excited to show it to you guys here is the cut it's got a really strong line there's the front like I said the weather is terrible here but you'll see the good result of it at the end of the video but you can see underneath we did the undercut in there thing that I love most about an undercut is the fact that you can remove so much weight this is key thing for curly hair we've talked about this before you can remove so much weight from the underneath without touching what the outcome of the haircut looks like so I do want to say thank you to everyone for all the shoutouts and all the comments on today's video that I just put out hopefully you guys like this video make sure that you post in the comments let me know what you think I want to know what you guys want to learn next if I'm gonna do a video every day I need lots of ideas so make sure that you're posting them in the comments hit the like button hit the share button and here we go with the step-by-step cut alright so right-hand side parting all the way down center back what we're doing is we want to focus this is an undercut bob so we want to focus on where we're going to put that undercut so I'm gonna go occipital bone down to behind the ear slight diagonal forward but not too much I see some people that cut the undercut and they go really far diagonal it's almost like they created a triangle in the back I'm not trying to do that plus this undercut even though it's a mannequin so I'm gonna keep it a little bit longer because it's a mannequin but even on a human I would keep it a little bit longer I don't like necessarily the shaved underneath all the time I know that there's a time and place for for everything but I'm gonna go through vertically and I want to create a shape with the undercut I think if you leave a little extra length in an undercut it gives you a little pop it almost lifts the back of the head at the occipital bone and creates a really cool foundation for the haircut that's gonna go over top of it so again I want to create a shape I'm going vertical with my sectioning this is really to remove bulk you could go through and just scissor over comb it because we're gonna do that as well but I like to go through and cleanly create the shapes really start the shape because the scissor over comb I'm really only gonna do from the nape about halfway up to the occipital bone so I really want to make sure I have a strong shape towards the top now we're gonna go through I'm using my blacksmith fit Mizetani scissors this is a six and a half inch scissor I really dig this is actually the first one I ever got from Mizetani and I love this thing so I'm going through just doing scissor over comb working around the edges I'm not trying to create really a triangular shape or anything like that so I don't mind taking off the corners of this because it is an undercut so just working my way through you'll see my steady blade stays on my comb and then the other blade is is in motion cutting the hair and I'm really gonna work this until I have a nice solid line in the back you know mannequin hair grows straight out of the head so it's definitely a little bit more difficult but you just keep working your line until you get happy with it and then I go through and I clean I put a hard line in the neckline this is something you don't get holding hair in your fingers so just using that scissor doing that detail work is going to make your haircut look a ton better all right finishing up the scissor over comb you can see them leaving a wait line at the occipital bone what that's gonna do is just give me a little extra pop for my shape later on when I go to style the haircut all right so we're gonna start off we're gonna cut this haircut horizontally everything's coming straight back to me putting a straight horizontal line and using the wide teeth of my comb I don't need a ton of tension on this but why as part combs already have a good amount of tension so I'd like using a little bit of the wider teeth this is a 339 comb and like I said it has enough tension already so working through over-dragging everything back towards me and creating just a really nice one-length solid line in the haircut what this is gonna do is giving me a slight over direction you can see how it starts to pop forward it's just because I'm pulling everything back to myself so no matter what when you pull something away from where it lives it's gonna end up longer when it drops down so bringing everything back cutting that horizontal line creating a triangular shape in the haircut the reason we call it triangular and that's how I learned it is that if you think about the shortest point and the longest point it's almost creating that a line shape or it is basically creating that a line shape in the haircut around the perimeter of the cut so we're looking at where the haircut gets fattest so it's gonna be from over directing everything back it's getting fatter at the front so it's skinny in the back fatter at the front so it creates that a look to the haircut or the triangular look to the shape so bringing everything back I'm not over directing it up and back so I want to keep again that strong line around the perimeter of the haircut so I'm just over directing it slightly to get that weight to push forward but not elevating it and this is a good way to make sure that you don't get that to that really extreme triangular shape a lot of people because you remove a ton of weight you're over direct it way too far so if you're not going for that look you're just looking for a soft subtle shape to kind of hug the chin of your guest this is a great way to do that so we're finishing up you can see that right along the parietal ridge I did section away the top I don't really love to over direct the top the entire time so what I'm gonna do is actually now that I've finished the base of my wet cut I'm gonna let the top fall over I'm gonna blow it dry with some brocato active oil and or serum and go through just flat wrap it and then I'm gonna do dry cutting on the entire top of the head so I think there's a time and place for everything and I think that dry cutting to me sometimes is really great to not even cut the top and just go through and clean it up that way so once I get the hair smoothed out I go through and I do an extra blow dry and I feel like that just kind of gives it life again and a little bit more movement to the hair so we're gonna go through with our tease cutting technique this one I'm taking vertical sections and I'm going through and just tease cutting the hair so what tease cutting is if you guys haven't been following along it's your first video tease cutting is a half close of the scissor you're pushing the hair so I find my guide which is all the hair falling out so that keeps my strong line and then I'm just softening the top layer so I'm going through half close pushing the hair and cutting it so the more you close the scissor the more you'll cut you can see there's my guide and I'm just gonna go through and I'm gonna remove all of this bulk could you point cut this yes you could definitely go through and do some point cutting if you want to I just really love the tease cutting technique it's quick and the result is very effective so we're flying through this is my Mizzatani puffin so this is my dry cutting scissors so I started off with a wet cutting scissor blacksmith fit which I really love and a lot of people ask me what scissor to get while they're in school that is definitely the scissor this is the blacksmith fit puffin which is a dry cutting scissor has a lot of smooth feel to the cut when you're cutting dry hair it's specifically made for dry hair and it works really well so we're gonna use the same scissor to go through here and we're just gonna clean up the baseline of the haircut so the outer perimeter of the haircut this is where all the detail work comes in we did cut all those hard lines in the wet cut so it's pretty simple once we get to this point but we're just gonna use the tip of the scissor go through and just little by little carve out that line and define that line that we've created in the wet cut so just you just want to use the tip you don't want to go in trying to use the full scissor that's gonna push too much hair but just going through the tip will not push the hair and it'll allow you to draw that really straight perfect line in the haircut so a few key factors I want to break down with this cut today and definitely challenge you guys to try in the salon the undercut is not going anywhere it definitely makes your haircuts look more modern and more user-friendly for your guests to blow dry at home so it's gonna allow a more sleek shape what you can see here leaving that top and not cutting it in the wet cut cutting it only in the dry I hope you guys like that tip try that out in the salon it works really well and then also outlining the perimeter just with the tip of the scissor going through and defining that line you can actually see it right now happen in the slow motion shape you can see that outer perimeter how sharp it is definitely try these techniques guys I think you'll like them all right guys so I hope you enjoyed the cut again make sure you hit the subscribe button if you haven't done that already and share this channel with all of your friends and if
