 Hey guys, this is Matt Beck from freesaloneducation.com. We're here at Palm Beach of the School Jersey Shore in Brick, New Jersey We're gonna head inside and we're gonna work with the students on filming a haircut color style the whole entire package I hope you guys enjoy this video and yeah, let's go have some fun All right guys, so this is Matt Beck from freesaloneducation.com and I'm very excited for this video we Went to Jersey Shore obviously and we filmed this is gonna be a full-through step-by-step haircut. We're gonna do a graduated Basically an A-line bob on curly hair And the thing I like about this we wanted to go to the school because we wanted to find People that were willing and open and also, you know They wanted to learn as well and wanted to learn filming and all that so we got some students involved So I'm gonna walk you guys through the haircut what we did We're gonna go through the style breakdown the color breakdown and how they did that as well So starting off here in the back We we started by cutting our guideline and what you notice is I'm not holding the hair in my hand Because I don't want to create a lot of tension. She's got curly hair. It's gonna live curly anyways So why would I pull it down on my hands? That's not how it's naturally gonna live So I comb it down. I even give it a little bit of movement with my hand To let it spring up and become almost in its natural state and then I cut my baseline now I cut that at a zero degree angle Which basically if you look at the curve of the head is gonna create almost a 45 degree angle anyways because of the way that the Oxipro bone curves and moves so we're working diagonal forward sectioning I cut that baseline first now. I'm gonna move in with elevation So we got a few different camera angles here. So hopefully you guys can get a really good look at what we're doing But what I want to show here is How that head shape is is angled? So I'm gonna pull out what I cut at a zero degree angle right here to show you that it's really at a 45 degree If you hold it out So you can see that that angle that it creates even though I cut it right at the neck It's still a 45 degree angle So I don't need to elevate any of that if I do that I'm gonna create a weird tail in the back of the head That I don't want so now As I work through the elevation I'm gonna work on a higher elevation because the head starts to curve away So you can see that angle that I'm working at and right here I'm basically telling them that if if I were to hold that hair at a 45 degree angle the entire time or what we consider a 45 degree angle it would basically turn into a zero degree angle as the head curves away, so Now we're gonna work still keeping it At a little bit higher elevation because with curly hair you don't need that much graduation You don't need a really strong angle that's gonna build up a lot of weight It's gonna happen anyways, and it's gonna shoot up because of the springiness of curly hair anyway, so My elevation is is probably at about a 45 degree angle at this point looking at it It would be really high if it was 90 degrees So we're about a mid mid point there. So holding it out 45 degree angle And just cutting palm to palm Combing all of that new hair. So all the new hair is going towards the center of the head Towards my guideline and that's really key. You'll also notice that I'm using a Y spark 3 3 2 comb Which is a really wide tooth comb And the reason for that is she's got curly hair Why would I want to use a tight tension comb on curly hair a lot of classes that I've taught out The hairdressers have their favorite comb and you can't just have one comb for everything you need a you need a Comb that fits the situation and the 3 3 2 comb I like on curly hair So we're still working palm to palm Following that guideline now we were traveling slightly and now Everything is over directed straight back because really what I want to do is once I hit that corner of the head I want to push that weight forward, which is going to create our a line feel It's going to push more that weight forward so you can see how it drops down a bit in there I'm just checking the way that the hair falls. I think with curly hair It's a lot about the feel and what we're trying to do is where we want to expand that shape So I'm just kind of tossing it around and then we'll go through. I'm cleaning up a little bit of neck hair Sometimes that's a nervous habit. I mean it doesn't need to happen yet. I'm going to do it at the end again But you know, we just we all have our habits so These are things that when you start editing a video you notice about yourself, but So it's still working at 90 degrees. I let a little bit more hair down working vertically at this point still Straight back but not straight out. So still again at that 45 degree angle straight out would be straight up from the crown And we're working about midway down So vertically using the previous section as my guide Traveling guide still I'm not over directing it all the way back Maybe we'll get an angle in there as you can see that but we're not I'm not over directing it to the very center back Because if I did that I'd push way too much weight to the side of the head and I don't want to do that So over direct straight back Watch the consistency and this is what I look for when I watch myself cutting hair is I'm looking for the consistency of my elevation So right here I'm working around the round of the head I don't want to elevate it the top section is going to be elevated straight out So I look at consistency with that then I drop my elevation as I work the round of the head Because the angle of the head changes So I don't want to create too much weight dropping down towards her ear Now we're going to go through and cross-check basically working diagonal back sections Just make sure that you shift that finger angle. So it's horizontal with the neckline In the back in the nape of the neck and Just dusting the ends. I'm looking for inconsistency in my elevation the key to this Cross-checking is just to make sure that I'm taking small sections because if you take Large sections what's going to happen is you're going to pull it too far from where it was originally in the cut You're going to change the shape of the haircut So just make sure that you take small sections and it comes straight out from the head just like you cut it in the other direction because cross-checking is really just Checking both angles to make sure that you have consistency And there we go So when you can see the thing about curly hair that's so great A lot of people like to cut a ton of texture in curly hair, which is fine at the end You can add some texture and lighten it up But when you create structure in curly hair, it's one of the coolest things because you can actually It's my favorite thing to cut is curly hair because you see the shape actually happen you see it expand out and That's awesome. You can't see that on fine thin low What's a density well there we go it hit me it's been a long day But low density hair you can't see that shape happen So curly hair is just so cool in the way that it expands So you want to create a precise haircut because then you can actually see that shape forming Now the difference here is my fingers are pointing down The reason they're pointing down is I want to stay consistent with my combing We've talked about this in past haircuts that I've done if you haven't seen them Make sure you're subscribing to our channel on YouTube because we have a lot of haircuts We're producing four to five videos a week With free education so but you just want to stay consistent with the combing make sure that you comb that hair Towards your guideline you're never combing your guideline towards the new hair still working vertical and the toughest part about this section here is that My elbow is is in the air so if my elbows in the air it's gonna want to fall down and So it's really hard to stay consistent this way So you just want to make sure you're focused on that the entire time I mean, we're not always gonna be super comfortable cutting hair But you want to try to have your hand as in your arm and your body position as comfortable as possible so You can see my elevation dropped at the beginning because of the head shape And then as I work my way up the head then my elevation gets a little bit higher The thing I loved about being at Palm Beach of school Jersey Shore was that First off they have students that are just love learning and they were totally willing to be there They were loving what we were doing. So it was really cool to experience it with them and Get them involved. They did the color for us. They helped with the styling They helped we showed them how we set up everything when we film and it was just really fun It was a cool experience to be with them and doing that. So you know, this is the place that we would go to Find new hires and new talent for the industry. So make sure that You get involved in getting in the school. This is something We didn't obviously get paid to go in there But we wanted to go in there and share What we're doing and it inspires the students and we get to meet them and and you get to find out Who's gonna work great in your salon? So it's a really cool thing to do and do it in your area and get involved with the students find What makes you guys different as a salon and go in there and and share it? So there you go. Now we're gonna go through we're gonna cross-check again This is the GoPro angle you can see when we do the the wider shot you can see there's a camera on my chest and Sometimes we wear it on our head. We're trying it in all different ways So just you can see this a good shot of how we're cross-checking really small sections Try not to pull all of that old hair with me So I take the small section and and over direct it back Keeping that elevation high because if you looked at that vertically, I would be elevating that whole section up So I don't want to hold it down at the bottom of this when I'm explaining to them now I wouldn't want to hold that all down because it would change the whole entire haircut That's not how I cut it. So just make sure as you work through there and you're cross-checking That you're keeping that elevation high and right off of the head that way in the last section making sure I'm just straight back straight off the head I don't want to I don't want to cut off that corner I want to create that and push that weight forward and that's what really makes this haircut stand out Especially on curly hair. I mean you we we just filmed a Straight-hair version of this type of haircut a little more asymmetrical feel to it, but with this one You know you want you want that buildup of curl around her face and to drop just below her cheekbone And that's what's really gonna bring this whole thing out You don't want to just have a big round shape on her head You want it to drop and move and and and showcase, you know the features? So what I'm gonna do is again, I did not comb this down straight I comb it down and then I let the curl kind of expand up and then I cut the line We can always go in and clean that up later But I want to just leave it there and I also did not elevate it because there's no reason to elevate it right now I want to go through the top part there That we're gonna work on next the very top section That's where we can create the lightness and and all that but she doesn't have a really thick density of hair So I want that curl to expand Maybe you can see me shaking it out Letting that curl activate and as soon as the curl activates then I'm gonna go in and cut the line I like this better than just holding it up Overdirecting it back and pushing the weight forward because I can determine what I want that line to look like Instead of holding it back and hoping that it falls the way I want it to just clean it up a little bit more This would be a good chance to look in your mirror and see if both sides are balanced the way that you would like them to be And then just get your hands in it. I mean curly hair is so fun to just watch it expand and build and Become what you want it to be so now we're gonna let down the top and The top is just really we just built the shape We've created everything so now what I want to do is I'm gonna separate the front and the back So you can see that right at the high point that apex right there And I'm gonna work and I want to keep expanding that round shape in the back And then I'm gonna do something a little bit different with the front and collapse the top a little bit more in the front Because I don't want a lot of weight being shoved over So we'll twist up the top and you completely separate it and just you know Keep everything clean organized as you're working through don't get too Ancy to want to jump and do everything at once because they're two separate things as you look at the curve of the head and how it works It's different. The back is different than the front. You're gonna hold it differently. It's working differently So eventually they will connect but they're they're a different part of the head They're gonna the hair is gonna lay in a different spot So so we separate the front in the back and now I'm gonna work in basically pie shaped sections But I'm gonna over direct them To that back left corner. So you'll see this What I wanted to do is expand the heavy side So if she's gonna part on the left hand side I wanted to over direct everything to the left hand side and just push that weight because I also I think with with curly hair Sometimes we cut too many layers and on the top it'll look a little flatter Because of all the layering and then around the side It gets it starts to sort of expand and we collapse it a little bit too much on the top. So Here you're gonna see me Combing with the round of the head, but over directing it all the way over Just to build up that weight on the heavy side It's going to give it a little bit of an asymmetric feel but not really because the the left side is light airy So it's going to expand on its own and then the heavy side sometimes falls a little flat because it's so heavy So you want to add a little bit more Layering to the left side and then the bulk to the right side Still working vertically through there and over directing it stationary guide And this will be the last section Just grabbing it over over directing all that hair To that stationary guide pushing all that weight to the right side There we go And now we're going to work on the front the cool thing about this experience was Teaching a class at the same time. So we're filming this and we had the three camera angles going but There were students there. So we were teaching as well, which was really fun So now I'm going to take a section out of the corner. So this is where she parts her hair So I want to take a section from above the part And I'm going to take a little bit of a section from below the part And that's going to start my guideline for the front of the head Also the thing with our model Jessica here who's also a student at the school um The one thing about her was that her head was a little bit flatter on top. So what we wanted to do I wanted to create A little bit more bulk in the middle Like around the apex area just to give it a little more roundness And that's the thing with our guests. They all have we all have different shape heads I have a really flat head in the back So I was just talking to the guys before I want to create a little more bulk in the back of my head You know, so you want to create an illusion of something that's not there That's what a great haircut is So when we look at here, I want to build up that weight right in the center. So my over direction is short around the Forehead area and it builds to a peak right around the apex So the weight that I built up in the back section I cut short to long in the back And now I'm cutting short to long in the front to create that peak right Where the top of my knuckles are there And then everything is again being over directed to right over top of the parting So we're creating a side angled kind of fringe with curly hair And also removing a lot of bulk and placing it on the apex So everything that we're doing has a purpose and that's really What you want to make sure you're focused on when you're cutting hair is Putting weight where you need it and removing it where you don't need it Sounds simple, but as long as you understand head shape and that was thing that clicked for me You know a few years ago cutting hair was just I understood How to create a shape or like a triangle or square shape on the head But what I didn't understand and what clicked with me finally was to put it with the head shape as well So, you know combining all that stuff together And doing everything with a purpose And there we go So what we're going to do now is we're going to break down some of the other stuff the styling And then I'm going to come back in and finish up with the dry cut So let's let Barrett go through the styling and then we'll come back All right guys, we are moving on to the finishing now. This is Barrett Sultana from freesaloneducation.com And this is our friend Taylor and she came through and she helped me do a lot of the finishing So I'm just going to have her go through and say what products we've used and how we achieved We're going to start in the back So if you could walk us through and tell me what we did in the back Sure. Well, first we started with a palmatial twirl around We rubbed it through the entire Head and we went with the curl pattern. So we kind of twirled our fingers in there Kind of just like worked it through every curl individually. And then when we went in with the diffuser We started did you want to start in the back? Can you tell her in the back because she was pretty saturated? So we wanted to get this dry first Okay, and now the haircut that matt went through Because we went I wanted to start in the back Just to build that weight because matt went through and talked about a lot of the structure that we did with the haircut So I think that that helps with building the volume in the hair and building the structure of the curl back So then we went through and we had her tilt I'm just going to have her show you a little bit that we tilted her side To side and then I'm going to have taylor tell you why we actually did that with her So when we tilt her side to side it kind of helps bring up that natural volume that she gets with the curl Okay, and then when we went side to side the last thing we really had her do is flip forward You really don't have to flip forward. I'm not going to give you whiplash But you have this the client or guest flip forward and if they have a little bit longer hair You can also have them stand. We just had her sit in the chair flip her head forward and that also Gave her volume up here And that's why just not touching the curl too much as we're diffusing it Kind of just gripping it at the root to get all that volume up there is what we really did and then going through with a Working spray really helped to build all the weight in the structure of the curl So that matt could go and do some finishing with some dry cutting And then we finished it with a nice finishing spray and that is our style for today. Thanks guys All right, so cool. So um, that's the way that we styled it now that we have it finished and you know You don't want to touch a lot of those curls like bear it was saying So now I can really get my hands in it. We've already got it styled irons and everything um And the one thing that I don't think was passed along in that was That she did go through with a small wand iron and just to find the curls So I think that's important to say because this isn't just a diffused look You know more effort goes into it than that I think that was the one thing that hair shows is that you know So much effort goes into making that hair look flawless and then we come out and we're like, you know It's just this one product did all of this and it's not that's not the case. So You know, there was a wand involved. There was diffusing sprays all different stuff it goes into this look Um, so we're just going through doing a tease cutting technique. I'm using my blacksmith fit puff in Dry cutting scissor. So it's a real smooth scissor in the dry hair Just going through and just lightening up the top layer of curls So nothing too fancy. I just like to create a little airiness airiness if that's a word through the top of the hair and And yeah, just give it some movement in there I remember when I was in beauty school. I was told that, you know, um I saw this really sleek beautiful look from on a DVD and My teacher was like, you know, they go through with a flat iron They use all these serums and all this stuff and I'm like, well People can do that at home. We can teach people to do this stuff. So, um, you know, this is a look that's very easy to recreate and um And I think if we show people to diffuse and then use a wand really quick I don't think that that's too much to ask for our guests. So but it gives it such a definition on all the curls I'm going through clean it up the neck hair. I just lift up some of the curls and go through just flatten my scissor Along the neckline. This is something, you know, work on it But if you have your steady blade that's not moving and you just work that along the neck and then you close it um With the the blade that you have in motion it works really well You don't have to use a clipper like I don't I like to leave it a little natural She's supposed to have some neck hair there. So just go through through scissor and clean it up a bit So now we're going to jump in uh, just finish it with a firm finishing spray Expand the curl out. It looks great. The color looks awesome. So Brian here is going to go through now and he's going to break down the color technique that Um, they did at the school. So here we go. Hey guys, brian here from freestylaneeducation.com with my good friend Jess and she was the creative genius behind this really cool color technique on our lovely model here So i'm here to let her explain that to you guys So hi jess. Hi great job So why don't you walk us through a little bit of what you did? We did a block coloring technique on her Um from the apex forward. We did a cool red And then we did um a cool red on the occipital down as well the same color. Yes And then around the band of the hair We did a red red a neutral red and then right here on the sides We did a block coloring with a red orange So you have a cool a neutral and a warm red all in the one head? Yes That's awesome. I mean it looks great. You can definitely see the dimension throughout Uh, why did you choose to do one of each? Um, just to give it some movement and some dimension and just to give it Different colors has some fun with it. Well, I think it did a great job. It definitely translates well into this great Angled haircut and it explodes great choice with the block color because it really helps to show up on the curl So I think did a fantastic job and don't be surprised if I steal this from you Thank you Hi, i'm draa bullen with freesalon education dot com And i'm here with alana to break down her makeup technique that she used today on our lovely model Hi, um, so I really wanted to play out her warmth in her hair car that she got and really feature that in her makeup application I really incorporated the copper red tones and kind of a coral cheek color and the Consor and highlight really brings out her facial features and really plays up the whole hairstyle and brings it all together Well, you did a great job.
