Let's get started. Here we go. All right guys So we're gonna start off this technique. We want to create symmetry to start this whole thing Really, the whole haircut is based on being symmetrical not asymmetrical So center parting to the high point of the head and then down to just Right at the ear really the top of the ear So we're gonna have a slight diagonal forward in that sectioning Notice how I comb all the little hairs right at the scalp nice and tight and then I twist everything Away and clip it. It's keeping everything nice and clean as we start off our sectioning in this cut Same thing on the opposite side. So again keeping it symmetrical and then the overall goal of this cut is To not only have a nice symmetrical layering pattern, but also create a versatile fringe It's gonna allow you to your guests to either part on the left or right or the center. So really a nice Symmetrical feeling that is very versatile for the end result So the last bit of the sectioning is pretty simple diagonal back parting it's gonna create a point right at the occipital bone and is going to End in a triangle section right at the crown. So that's gonna section off that part as well Thing that we're gonna be using in this cut is a straight razor So this is something that you don't see a lot in my videos I wanted to pull that out today show you guys, you know It's really there's no difference in a lot of the different razors that you're gonna use the thing I like about the straight razor is the precision aspect of it every single bit of that blade is going to cut the hair So I'm using that. This is the just high. I believe is how you say it feather razor plier feather razor Cannot get this on free salon education calm. I don't really care about that So you can get it on the internet though. So if you want to check it out So basically what I did is I cut a straight line using about a half inch stroke of the razor And then this is where it gets a little fun in this technique. I didn't want to cut a ton of layers in the bottom of the hair I wanted to be nice and thick So what I'm doing is I'm just combing the hair vertical straight out from the head And then I'm just tapping through with the razor creating invisible layers within the haircut So I'm really just choosing how much layering I want to put in you could cut a straight line If you want all the layers if you want just some then you go in with just the tip blade of the feather Razor and you can get just subtle layers within the shape So what I wanted to do is just remove a little bit of weight create a little bit of movement on the bottom of that haircut And that's the that's the choice I made using this razor So you can see that movement that's happening, but still again nice and thick And everything came straight back from the head now. I'm gonna let out that triangle section and This is where we're gonna start to really build in some layers. So I take a vertical section we're gonna be working along the round of the head and I start from the guide the guide comes from the bottom and I work my way up and I'm really working 90 degrees straight off the head or straight off the head However, you want to say it and then I take a pie shape section and I shift I'm moving with the head shape all the way around to the ear That's gonna create round layering that follows the head shape and it's gonna create a lot of nice movement So you can see nice high elevation medium stroke with the razor. That's gonna give me a nice soft line That's really the the reason I chose to use a razor in this haircut was I wanted that movement I wanted those soft lines in the long hair Because sometimes when you cut blunt with a scissor, it's not as forgiving What I love about a razor is it creates soft lines, but also precision at the same time So you can almost see the roundness coming off the head in that technique Now we're moving into the side in the front of the head This is going to be we're gonna work straight over the ear taking our guide from the back So you'll see I pull that hair I comb everything nice and tight to the front pull everything straight out And I work from short to long now. I'm following the round of the head Also, you lose some density when you get to the side because there's not as much hair So you're gonna start to see that shape start to work its way up the head I'm not keeping a strong line on the bottom not thinking about that over the outer perimeter of the haircut I'm just I want the outer perimeter to kind of follow the head shape and work its way up towards That chin her chin or her jawline So working my way up working the 90 degrees of the head Soft stroke with the razor creating a soft line in the haircut And just working my way through traveling guide all the way to the front The other key thing I want you to to see as I'm working on the head is Gotta know when to stop right? So I want to work on a fringe later So you'll notice that I'm only gonna take Not even gonna take any more sections. So right there. I'm gonna pause I'm gonna clip it. That's as far as I wanted to go. I got to the edge of the eyebrow That's where I want my fringe to start So I pause I clip it and now I work to the other side same exact thing on the opposite side Combing everything straight out grabbing a guide from the back and then working that Medium stroke with the razor up the head shape 90 degrees out And I'll work my way all the way up the head until I get to that fringe area again And then I'll pause and then we're gonna cut into the fringe after all right So we let out the fringe area So this is pretty simple what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna comb everything over to me on one side I'm gonna determine the length that I want and that's where I'm gonna start so I'm creating that angle On one side So now it's gonna push that way from the left-hand side of her face Over to the right-hand side then I go in with the tip of that feather razor Just to skinny it up a little bit take out some of that weight And then I do the same exact thing on the opposite side keeping everything symmetrical Which is gonna allow her to go to either side on this haircut now going in and using the tip of the feather Razor is gonna lighten it up a little bit. So it makes it a lot softer When she decides which side she wants to put her hair on but you can see you can work it back and forth whichever way you want So now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna blow dry her hair I'm gonna show you guys the end result But I'm also gonna show you it with hair color because I'm gonna go into the hair color next So if you want to see that stay tuned in this video if you would rather Just do the haircut then you can do that. This is the end result. You can see that fringe This is off to one side. It would look the same on the other side or in the center It would look beautiful that way as well. So very versatile layered haircut. Hope you guys like it Now if you're interested in the color stay with me here. I'm gonna walk you through that All right, so we're gonna start off our color technique doing a zigzag parting right down the center Now this haircut we're basing the color off of the haircut. That's kind of the way I want to start doing these videos Let me know if you like that But I wanted to do the cut first and then show how I would color that cut So we go in I do a zigzag parting on the center part. We built the whole haircut off of the center part I want this to be versatile The whole haircut is based on having the client be able to push the hair either way So I want a top I want to color it so that it has that movement so no matter how they put their hair It's not gonna favor one way or the other so I use the zigzag parting and I take the first bit of that triangle I do a slice and then I tease that slice and I start painting so I work my way through I'm using Joico blonde life lightener with 20 volume And I'm gonna put that on her hair first now lightning hair is Just the first step right I think too much in the salon We think of lightning as the final step or a quick toner at the bowl What I'm gonna do is I'm going to lighten her get her light where I want her and then go in and do a toning Little bit of shadowing a little bit of lightness on the ends But really soften that tone and bring it all together. So Taking each edge of the triangle so I got the first triangle on that zigzag and then I take the next triangle So you should see kind of a back-and-forth movement with these foils notice that the first one was that direction The second one is the other direction and now I'm taking one the opposite direction So just working my way through that zigzag with one foil at a time This is a really simple technique, but it's really effective It really pops some brightness in the top, but you don't know where that brightness is coming from And that's what I wanted to create in this color technique here So again Working my way through that zigzag then when I get to the fringe That's where we're gonna change things up because it's such a versatile fringe You got to be very careful of how you decide to color it. So just working through notice how much I'm teasing that it's sped up So it looks a little funny, but I'm teasing it quite a bit because I want An as soft result as possible if you want a little bit harsher result a little bit more bold statement Then less teasing if you want it softer more teasing That's kind of the key to that So notice I've only done this is my fourth foil And then now I'm at the fringe. So it's pretty quick across the top and then Now I'm gonna work Slices all the way down weaving Weaving and not teasing so really really fine weave in the front and then I put the foil under I Paint that the lightener on and then I'll work my way through so pretty standard weave But notice that I'm going kind of diagonal back with my parting I'm gonna work my way all the way to the front fringe. I'm gonna do the same thing on the opposite side So I'm gonna stop talking let you watch and we'll work our way through this So here's where things change just a little bit when I get to that front hairline I want to be a little softer I don't want to go right to the scalp with my lightener So I'll paint that a little bit more forward you can see and I'm gonna use kind of a feathering ticket from Balia's technique Where I just slightly paint towards the base and then get a little heavier towards the end So I'm just trying to make it as soft as possible right around that front fringe area So that's our first side now. I'm gonna move to the opposite side and do the exact same thing that way So finishing up feather painting right at the front fringe area Now we're gonna switch up our technique again to create even a softer effect along the side So I take a slight diagonal forward parting About an inch thick section and I really tease that up like crazy And then I add that foil underneath and then I paint my blonde life lightener right on to that just to pop some Brightness on those ends. I don't really need it at the base. That's not really the goal with this cut Wanted a more lived-in color for the sides. So Just working my way up and I'll take one inch sections all the way through Until I end up with no hair at the end So really popping that brightness on the ends there another quick tip is to make sure that you don't paint that lightener into The tease section too much because it's obviously bunched up there So you might get a little spotting this in your end results. So just get it right up to that teasing But don't go too far in Same thing on the opposite side The last little touch that I do is I'll paint just a tad bit into the back of her hair So you'll see some feathered nests feathered nests. I don't think that's a word So feather it through the back just to pop a little bit of lightness into the hair But here's the deal. So to me and we're gonna use the natural warm series from joyco I'll talk about that in a second. But for me The lightener is the driver that takes you to the party, right? The toner is the fun part It's the part that really brings it to life. This is not a great look right now This is just her lightened where I want her to be lightened. So now I'm going in with six nwb This is demi color from joyco demi lume shine I work that at the base level six now her overall appearance on her hair was a level six when she came in to me, right? So I want to overall make her hair that natural warm tone I want to bring all of that in you don't want to just color the blonde, right? So what we would normally do in the slimes We just throw a a toner to tone the lightened part of her hair you want to bring the whole thing together That's the whole purpose of making something really look nice It's like putting in a really nice couch in your living room, but never painting the room, right? You want to make sure that the whole thing goes together the whole package goes together. So I take six nwb paint that at the base then I take eight nwb and I paint that through her ends That's the key to making sure that you really have a nice put together package for your client in the end result. So um notice getting really in there um working with my comb to get the tangles out of the hair and then I paint that uh toner on also notice It's on dry hair. I personally like to do it on dry hair I feel like you get a better end result. You have more control. Some people like to do it at the sink Do what you do best, but for me, this is what works In this situation. So use that lightener drive the hair where you want it to go and then tone it So it looks beautiful and your end result and looks like it's all put together. So notice how Beautiful those tones go together you tone down that blonde to that, you know crisp level eight Uh, you doesn't need to be a 10 and then you have that level six that warm Beautiful golden tone coming through there the natural warm series from joyco.
