 Alright guys, so we're back with another point of view haircut. This is actually on one of my guests named Sysca and Sysca is a lot of fun. So I figured you know what? Let's just film this. She's got really curly hair She never lets me blow it dry. So we've all had that guest before but you'll be able to see the overall shape At the end and how she likes to wear it. She actually hasn't hadn't been in for quite a while She's like, you know, I forgot to reschedule before I left last time and I couldn't get in with you for a month So She definitely rescheduled when she left this time. So we're gonna start by combing her hair back I put a leave-in conditioner in her hair. She's got really curly hair. She loves wearing it wavy So I figure, you know, we want to put that leave-in conditioner in there is gonna help keep the quality of the hair and helps keep Really curly hair from being frizzy when it dries. So We're gonna start by sectioning at the parietal ridge back We're gonna cross over mid-crown and then we're gonna go right back over parietal ridge to the recession point of the head there So we're gonna comb that all through and notice I'm using a wide-tooth comb at this point The reason I like to do that is because just easier to get through especially when they have really thick curly hair Using a wide-tooth comb is just much easier So we're gonna comb that straight up in the air when I section hair I like to comb it straight up almost like I'm putting it in a ponytail Because that's gonna get all of the little hairs nice and tight and then I could twist it up and just clip it away So now we're gonna choose our tool. I'm gonna go with the Mizetani type Z2. It's my favorite scissor It's always my go-to so I Love the power of this scissor. You'll notice that if you can see it It's got a thicker point to the blade. It's still a point to it And I like having that but the blade gets thicker towards the end Which gives it a lot of power when it's cutting hair So it allows you to really cut through the hair nice. So we're gonna start center back section parting We're gonna part the hair. I'm gonna comb it off to the side. I've Moved to a finer-tooth comb. That's really important to make sure that I have my tension I'm gonna show you how Cisca is kind of the bone of her head or occipital bone It goes in pretty deep. So as I'm working through it I want to make sure I focus on that and how my finger angle is gonna be working So you can see you can actually see in the mirror what it what it looks like when I'm wearing that camera It's not the coolest thing to do, but that's why I choose which guest I do that with Cisca was pretty cool about it. She She had no problem. She was actually being very quiet at the beginning And I was like I'm gonna voice this over so you can talk so then then she got more comfortable And started talking to me a bit. So horizontal section diagonal forward slight diagonal forward Don't get too crazy with the angles as we're working. We're gonna cut a nice graduation in the Cisca's hair We're gonna get rid of that length. So I just want to section off nice and clean I didn't get complicated with the sectioning. I'm never somebody that wants to do that really. There's no point in Getting complicated with it. So We're gonna comb her hair down Tilting her head. I'm only tilting her head and talked about this before I only tilt the head for comfort on my part So I can be consistent. So now I'm gonna use My fingers as a guideline. I'm gonna push the hair down. This will give me a true the truest zero degree that I can get Obviously, this is where the occipital bone and the nape of her neck are really moving at all different angles. So you know, this keeps Me cutting a nice straight line at basically a zero degree angle It also keeps the hair from moving too you know, but Sometimes if you hold it in the comb, it's just The comb can keep the hair steady, but it gets in the way just doesn't work as well. So I like using my fingers All right, that gives us our baseline our guideline for the rest of the haircut and Her head is already the head shape right there as at a 45 degree angle So basically as I'm holding that down, I'm almost cutting it out of 45. So that starts our graduation nice Right away. So now as I move into the haircut everything about it's gonna be elevated Because I don't want to build up too much weight, especially with her curly hair. I want to make sure that It's a nice light airy feel to the curly haircut. So We're gonna work still horizontal, but slight diagonal forward It's cutting with a slight diagonal forward as well The reason I like to do that is because it's really if I cut it at a slight diagonal forward It just gives my hand positioning more comfort so that I can be more consistent with the haircut So if I'm just straight up vertical for me, it just not as comfortable. So I'm not as consistent when I'm not comfortable So working diagonal forward Elevation is straight out from the head following the curve of the head So you can see my hands slide down as I work lower towards the nape of the neck and the reason for that is the head shape Is changing so I'm following the head shape to keep a true 90 degree angle With this haircut 90 degree for me is gonna be nice and soft With her curly hair and it's gonna create a nice rounded shape to the layering So just fall on the shape of the head Now I'm gonna work back and forth sometimes I like to just work one side of the head and then move to the other side with this particular haircut I'm just gonna really get each side even and work through it because I think Sometimes when you rush through not rush through but when you're working through and you do one whole side Then it's harder to find your guide when you move to the other side So this just allows me to right away find my guide Make sure that both sides look even and then I move on instead of you know trying to guess my way through it later So my fingers are now pointing down The reason for that is so that my combing is consistent because you always want your you always want to be combing The new hair towards your guideline So on the other side I was combing towards the center and now on this side I'm combing towards the center and the only way to do that comfortably is to Change your finger position. So pointing my fingers down Still working palm to palm And you can see me shift my finger angle towards the neck as I cut along Still working diagonal forward as well. So everything is the same the only thing that changed in this haircut so far is my finger angle slight over direction back with this because Obviously right around there is where everyone talks about getting a hole I Think it's just important to have a slight over direction to push some of that weight because the density changes as soon as you pass around the ear so Because the density is changing and there's less hair there I want to make sure I push a little extra weight behind the ear. All right. So now we're gonna move straight vertical Now I'm working closer to the top of the head. So it's gonna allow me Easier to work with my body positioning again. I talk about comfort comfort makes me consistent. So Using I'm gonna move the camera down a bit but Now I'm standing up. I'm not sitting in the stool anymore. So we're gonna work on top of our fingers There we go And one more adjustment. There we go. So Combing the hair you can see me pushing away from my body The elevation is still at 90 degrees at this point But then there's gonna be a slight see right there. You can see it the finished part of that section So it starts off at 90 degrees, but then by the top By when you get closer to my knuckles the hair that I have in my fingers That's that pretty much a 45 degree angle. So we're watching Cisco's head kind of move away So there's gonna be a nice little buildup of graduation towards the top But I don't want to start that graduation right away I want to wait until we're at the mid crown area, which is up by my knuckles right here Just to have a little bit of graduation in this haircut So a nice little slight buildup of weight Which will sit right around her occipital bone. You can see where it's building up right there Everything coming straight back keeping this kind of a square back feel to the haircut pushing the weight forward And I'm being very consistent with my combing as well Using the same side of the comb working through it Checking everything. It's all about the details guys And that's what I hope you get to see through these point of view haircuts is We're not rushing through haircuts in the salon right now We are working on details and that's what makes our haircuts worth more money So now we're gonna work the other side vertically as well, so I'm gonna Part it at the division point and just work on that back section Take a little bit of the hair from the previous side as my guideline We'll comb it out of the way But I'm still standing on the same side of the head and the reason we're doing that is again for consistency Now I'm gonna be the only difference is I'm gonna be pulling the hair towards my body Because the guideline is in front of me now So before I was pushing the new hair into the guide now I'm pulling the new hair towards me and towards the guide Just so that guide stays where it should be if you push the guide right now If I were to push that guide into my new section I'd be moving it and then by the time you get done with the haircut You have one side that's way longer than the other because you kept pushing the guide further and further away So you just want to make sure that you're keeping the guide where it should be Still vertically following the round of the head Everything coming straight back no over direction Working above my fingers with this cutting but just again that one blade moving Notice throughout this whole entire haircut. I don't just comb the hair and cut it right away We work that section so I comb it over and over again to get every little piece of hair In the comb that's how you end up with those little stragglers as you just quickly comb the hair up And then that's it you can see I'm working the base of that section combing through Until I get every bit of hair even then I cut it. I don't just comb it up and cut it right away Sometimes in the psalm we get in a rush and you can see I'm almost at that edge. Could I take it all on my hand? I probably could but that doesn't mean I should so make sure that you don't rush through anything And I can grab that last little bit I can cleanly see my guide through it and then I can go in and cut it You don't want to rush anything or try to do too much at once because that's just gonna set the whole entire haircut off There you go. You can see a nice little graduation feel to it You can see the nice line at her neck. So So far so good the haircut's got a really good feel to it now. We're gonna check it. Just make sure everything feels even Just a quick check it doesn't have to be crazy in the song. We don't have to go through You know and spend 15 minutes cross-checking it. Just make sure everything's looking good All right, so I'm gonna start on the left hand side And what we're gonna do is we're gonna take vertical sections and I'm gonna now I'm gonna work with a high elevation Because what I want to do is collapse the interior of this haircut and allow the curls to kind of fall over from both sides So we're gonna start still working over my fingers Creating a concave shape within the sides of the haircut. So just you can still see moving that one blade But working with a high elevation Keeping the length as well. So right now. I'm disconnecting the length from the bottom But we're gonna go back in and take that length off later. So I just really want to remove the interior of this haircut and Allow a nice shape because basically what happens if on the interior right there right at the bridal ridge that that Bit of hair that's gonna help hold up the rest of the shape of the haircut if you have curly hair And you build up a graduation in the entire part of the haircut What's gonna happen is it's just gonna get too big on the bottom So this allows us to remove some of that weight from the interior and allows the top to fall over it So we're still gonna work vertically here The only thing we're gonna change in this part is I'm gonna be standing in front of Cisco Because I still want to be combing the hair in the same direction. So on the left side I was combing the hair back now. I want to comb the hair to the back as well So I'm gonna stand in the front and push the hair backwards But still doing the same cutting pattern there We're doing this in a few sections over directing everything to right behind the ear Which is nice because it pushes the weight forward still but we're removing weight using that concave layering technique So the haircut's coming together. You can see how the weight feels removed from there It's gonna be a nice airy feel to the haircut now. I'm gonna split the top in half Really just at the The division point of the head and what I'm gonna do is comb it straight up in the air I'm gonna take a guide from The below the bridle where I just cut and I'm gonna work short to long So the longest point is gonna be in the center of that section. So just cutting it straight up in the air Probably about a 45 degree angle to my fingers Just to take it short and allow that that middle part of this haircut to be the longest So it can kind of flop back and forth from side to side and over top of those curls that we have on the side of Cisco's haircut, so again just Basically falling around the head with my fingers, but then slightly elevating my elbow so that We get that point right in the middle of our head there over directing everything back To that center point As well so stationary guide right here that'll push weight forward and put place weight to the top of her head So that it can kind of bounce back and forth Now we're gonna do the same thing on the opposite side. So i'm gonna split it again And this is what's gonna ensure almost like a rooftop Feel you can see that there's gonna be about a like a peak in the top of her haircut So i'm gonna run from the guide there So there's our guide and i'm gonna cut straight up again using that same finger angle So it's just putting the the very center of her head the heaviest point Still over directing back I'm standing in front of her now because I want to be combing The new hair to the guide and still cutting short to long just like I did on the opposite side And then one more section And there it is So you can see the movement in it and we're gonna play around with it for a minute, but um I'm talking to sysga. How do you feel about the haircut? Which side are you parting it on because the great thing about this haircut? I didn't matter which side she parts on so now i'm gonna figure that out and we're gonna go in and work the uh the fringe area I think she gave me the the normal answer It doesn't matter but there but she really does have a side that she likes so You know, I kind of talked her into telling me which side works the best And so now what we're going to do is we're going to go in and cut a nice fringe for her So i'm going to work from the from the parting Down to the temple area I'm going to allow the rest of that hair to kind of fall out of it and section it away I don't want to mess with all of there at once and I don't want her to have too thick of a fringe either So we're going to part the hair where it needs to be Then i'm going to work diagonal forward And then over directing the hair towards myself So she wants her fringe to sit above her eyebrows So what i'm going to do is i'm going to do an initial cut And check the length of that to make sure that's you know about where she wants it And that seems to be pretty good. She likes that length So we're going to continue through and this is where I can decide how far back to I want to go with the fringe How thick do I want it to be? I don't want it to be too thick So i'm just going to really follow her hairline for a bit But I am going to go in and use that as my guideline I am doing a nice elevation to it so that it's a nice light fringe and Because I don't want to create too much weight either. So it's not sitting down at her nose It's hard to see it from this angle, but I'm actually elevating it pretty much straight out from the head In that part So there you go, that's all I did three sections and you know, the fringe is good Now we're going to Over-direct the the side there and I'm going to comb it until Basically we run out of hair right at the temple. So I'm going to push that a little bit back Taking nice clean sections keeping it organized still And just cleaning it up connecting the two sides together So now I'm talking this is going to see what she thinks of the length She wants to take the sides a little shorter. She said it's flipping out I personally like it that way I like a little bit more length in the front a bit, especially with curly hair because it's not like it's too exaggerated like a Victoria Beckham feel but Or dated in that way with curly hair. It just curls up a little bit more, but cisco is just a wash and go kind of kind of lady so We're going to take it blended in nice So you can see I section at the bridal push the rest over because I don't want to cut too much at once You don't want to just go in there and cut it off and cisco Her ears are a little bit bigger. So What I did was I comb the hair down and then I tap it with my finger just to Lift that hair up a bit so it doesn't interfere with how it's going to fall later And then I go through slowly I'll adjust the camera one more time Calm the hair down into its natural fall and just go through using the scissor to cut it through it And then I check that length before I move any further because why would I keep working? Until I know that we have the length that she's looking for So I think she wanted to go a little bit shorter So we're going to comb it down again and I'm going to work Just a little bit more. I'm going to take that line up a bit Following the jaw line She likes it to come a little bit above her her jaw line. So um and even here Combing it down. It's got a little flip to it. So probably in my mind. I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do So now I'm going to hold it in my fingers because that'll help me control it So I like to keep it at its natural fall, but if it has a little kick to it I'm going to hold it in my fingers with just a light tension. Um Not gripping it hard because I don't want to take it out of its natural fall, but Sometimes you got to hold on to it with your hand So I'll pull the rest of her hair over again And check it because I already removed the weight that I wanted to from her hair So it doesn't necessarily mean in every haircut you're going to have to go back in And redo the entire haircut because I cut those concave layers in there I'm going to go in and just blend the line a little bit, but it I'm sure it I already did the layering. So um You can see I held it out there and I was like, well, that's there's no need to go in and cut it there. So um But if you look at When I held her hair up before and I cut those concave layers in all it did was preserve the length And kept it nice and light at the length So it allows me to go in and just cut her length and not mess up the shape of the haircut, I guess Same thing on this side Combin it through and then this side her hair doesn't really kick out like that. So Um, I'm going to say I probably do not need to hold it in my fingers on this side You just go in and cut it and we're good to go So we mess it up a little bit Sisk is so funny and she's been coming to me for Probably about six years and she's been coming to the salon for I think 10 years and um I got her as a guest after One of her style is left and you know, she's been coming to me forever And it's funny because I cut her hair. We style it up. She loves it Then she'll go take a walk around town and then she'll come back later And she'll show me that it's a dry and it looks great. She's never let me blow dry her hair ever but just being able to put in this curly shape starting off with the The leaving conditioner so that you know because sysca doesn't like to blow it dry It's going to keep the style nice And then just going in putting in a nice solid shape in there is going to help create the nice curly hair I think with curly hair we think we need to texturize it like crazy But you don't if you do a precise haircut we took out the interior We cut those concave layers and I think that really makes this haircut shine and you know Sisk is going to go walk around show it off show it off all over town and uh Yeah, so I hope you guys like this haircut Make sure that you subscribe to us on youtube for more of these point of view haircuts and Everything else that we're doing on freesaloneducation.com, but hope you guys like the video and we will see you on the next one.
