 Welcome to today's video. We are going to be going over a pixie cut a pink pixie actually It's gonna be an undercut pixie. So nice disconnection on the top We're gonna color it pink at the end. I think you guys are gonna really dig this video. So today The sectioning is gonna be pretty simple. I started the parietal ridge and I worked my way back So look at for that recession point. You want to make sure that the top section that you're sectioning off is not too wide It can really throw this haircut off also You're trying to make some texture live on top of the head if you go too far down on the parietal ridge Then hair will start hanging over in the final look So nice rectangular shape goes right down to the middle of the crown area and we section off that top now I'm using the Paul Mitchell Pro Tools Express Ion dry. It's a turbo light Dryer so it's a brand new dryer from Paul Mitchell. I'm gonna use this to blow dry the bottom portion of the head So after you shampoo, I always like when I go on my clippers not to go in with the wet hair Just helps kind of get everything into the clipper better and also Keeps the hair nice and smooth and works out any callix So you just go through and you cut it really nice and all the hair is laying the right way So I'm using my andis cordless clipper And I'm also using a two guard to start out and that's really just to remove the bulk It's also really where I want the hair to end at about the parietal ridge. So I start by just taking out all that bulk It just makes it easier for me. Some people like to start with that short section first leaves a long hair in there I like to get most of it out of the way Especially if I'm gonna cut the whole thing at a two level anyways, so I work my way through Working the clipper back and forth key thing with using a clipper guys is just to make sure that you don't just go in one Direction because hair kind of does grow in multiple directions even though we do that blow dry to prep the hair It's still good to go back and forth in different directions to make sure you get every little bit possible Now I jump all the way down to the zero guard and this is a trick that I want you guys to try when you're working in The salon, especially if you're not a barber I'm not making this video for barbers if you are a hairdresser and you're not used to using clippers Going in using your highest clipper first take the bulk out Then go in with your lowest clipper and draw your line around the head shape. This is something I've really been working on I have had some barber friends come in and film some videos. So I learned some things I really like working with my lower guard all the way creating that line and really just Drawing an outline of where I want the shadowing to be in the haircut So we're gonna do a lower fade So I want the the weight to kind of come down just at that occipital bone area and then I clean the rest off at a zero guard Now this is Mary. I've done multiple cuts on Mary. You guys have watched them on YouTube for sure She really wanted to go nice and short show me this really short haircut So I thought it was really cool being able to go in and try out those fading techniques So now I jump to a one guard and that one guard is gonna be fully open So you'll still see a line following the ridge of the head But you noticed that that that line really hugs the head shape and that's what you want because you want to Really accent what her head shape is so I work my way through there one guard fully open You'll still see that line because we're going from a zero guard to a one guard open so there is gonna be a little bit of Shadowing in there. So I work my way through Then I'm gonna go in with my ys park barbering comb. This is available on freesline education. I believe it's the two Actually, I don't remember the number but just look up barbering combs on freesline education You can see this one on there. I use this for my clipper over comb So I completely close the blade On the clipper and I go through and I just take away some of that shadowing with that That's my personal preference. You could do it with a guard as well. So now Cleaning it up. This is my I got this picked this up at the last hair show. I was at in Philadelphia At the Andis booth. So I paid my own money for it, but I do really like this trimmer So I like it. I like a tea trimmer for all the detail work It cuts really nice. It's got lots of power and it's cordless. I like working with cordless tools So now I wet down the top of the head. This is where the haircut to me gets interesting, right? So And this is where I think a lot of people have challenges We're gonna make a lot of movements on the top of the head So really make sure you stay focused. Don't worry about pausing it rewinding it and really watching the sectioning that I'm taking So this first section that I take I take it right at the crown and then I comb everything down This is really where that calic area is and what I wanted to do is create a line now I'm trying to get a little more creative with this cut So what I'm gonna do is create a stationary guide the haircut's gonna flow to the right-hand side So I'm taking diagonal Forward partings and I'm over directing them to that stationary guide and what that's gonna do is grow not grow But push more length towards the right ear, right? So you'll start to see that line kind of unfolding So I just keep taking diagonal forward partings bringing them over and cutting it in my fingers palm to palm So notice I'm gonna comb this out Notice that line and the length and it's just an asymmetrical line It looks really cool on the head and now I'm gonna connect it almost like a u-shape And I'm gonna start another stationary guide for the top part of the head So this was cool about this cut I think because obviously if you comb everything over to this side, it's very heavy But what I'm doing is I'm removing a ton of weight from the very back portion of the head And I'm pushing all the weight to the front So what that's gonna do is give me more hair to play with in the drive cut portion and also Remove that bulk from the back of the head Also, I should mention the scissor that I'm using is my new scissor that just came out It's available on freesaloneducation.com. So if you're looking for a new scissor, it was manufactured in Japan By hand by Mizutani. I'm really proud of this scissor I was involved in the entire design of the scissor So it's every spec that I love how it fits in my hand and everything. So I know you guys will like it as well a lot of thought went into the scissor All right, just finishing up everything still keeps coming over to that stationary guide and now you can see that weight build up That's not an attractive look, but that's not how she's gonna wear it She's gonna wear it off to the complete other side. So that's where that weight will go away Now I'm gonna connect this line all the way down to the front forehead area So I just comb everything over and I keep bringing it over to me and tell I run out of hair So there's no hair that will reach to this side now doing this if you think about it I'm cutting it horizontally. So I'm really focused on that shape and how the angle is gonna go From a horizontal line aspect But when you look at this shape if I would take the same exact thing vertically It would be a very collapsed shape when it goes to fall to the other side if that makes sense So we're really collapsing the left-hand side of the head and pushing all that weight to the right-hand side of that So now I continue that line all the way across Over-directing everything back and just connecting it together and then from there I've got my guide and now we're working with the heavy part of the head So that's why I say that this is interesting because a lot of people just cut their line Then go into a ton of texturizing techniques take out the bulk But nothing really has a rhyme or reason to it the reason I'm now Elevating the hair is because this is the heavy side of the head So I want to elevate it I switched to a point cutting technique instead of blunt cutting because I want to add more texture and take out some more Weight on the lines that I'm creating and I'm over directing everything back So I do that I blow it dry and then what I'm going to do is go in and color it and Then when I rinse out the color and I blow it dry one more time Then we'll go in and do our dry cutting technique. So we're using palmitraal pop XG. It's a fantasy color I mixed pink and red and and hot pink and like I mixed tons of peach All together we wanted to make a pink color that just was a little earthier looking So it wasn't just like a really bright fantasy color. It was a little bit softer So I think you guys will like the end result. So I just paint that on that's fully Scalp to ends just painting it over the fact that she's already got blonde hair So you want to make sure if you're gonna do color like this, especially lighter pastelli kind of colors On your guests make sure that they're nice and light. They got to be at least a level nine To really get the right effect. So Mary. We've been bleaching her hair for quite a while She wanted to try something new so the pink was kind of a nice fit It also will fade out. So then it will fade out and also tone her hair So you'll see but check out that the kind of smokiness to it I really love the movement and everything now I go and do some dry cutting techniques start out with point cutting because I really wanted to Break up the lines that we created on the top. So we did some pretty blunt lines over directing everything back to that stationary guide So what point cutting does just goes in and softens those lines And then I go right across just above parietal ridge and I pull some of the hair down This is hair that probably is gonna fall off to the side. Let's just say so what I Want to do is just soften that so I comb it down and I work my scissor a half close And I just kind of take some teeth out of it or gaps I just create air in that shape and then I go in with palmatial invisible wear and I spray that in it's a texture hair Spray so I create a ton of texture. It's got a slight Me I'd say a medium hold and then I go in with my iron. It's a palmatial Pro Tools Smoothing iron I go in and I just flip out some of those textured pieces to really show off the shape Notice that the shape really follows her jaw line and expands into the back Which really gives her a nice flattering shape to her head shape So hope you guys like the video remember check out my scissor on free salon education calm Thank you guys so much for watching if you have any questions hit me up on social media everything at free salon education Thanks for watching
