want to waste any more time i want to get right into this haircut let's get started here we go okay so we're going to start off the cut today with sectioning sectioning is the most important thing that you can do because it's really mapping out the technique that you're going to be working with really understanding the head shape of the guest analyzing the hairline uh callix all that stuff so as we plan it out we take a parting straight down the center and then i section out the fringe area so we're going to be cutting into that later and the way that i look at this is i try to separate uh from the hairline up and around so when you look at that little triangle section that i created in the front it really comes from that point um where the hairline is on the head and then i wrap it around and then i twist up that section and kind of uh it's just sectioned away with a clip and then i'm going to work into the back so i go almost high point of the head and i separate the front and the back to really section those off the reason i like to do this and i've talked about it in quite a few videos at this point but this might be the first video you're watching as i section it off the reason i separate the front and the back is because the densities are so different look at the amount of hair uh in that front portion of the section as opposed to the hair that's in the back so i really just want to separate those so i know what density i'm working with when i'm going to move up in the hairline and that's just the basic sectioning that i like to do so now in the uh crown area we're going to section off a triangle shape so i draw a diagonal back line and then i do the same thing on the left hand side another diagonal back line they meet in the middle right at the occipital bone and then i pull that hair up uh and clip that away and we're going to cut that triangle section later and i'm going to show you guys a really cool texturizing technique using the tri razor all right so as i finish up my triangle section in the crown area just notice that you know the line was fine but it wasn't quite clean enough so i just take that extra second to then adjust it and make sure that i have clean partings and clean sections within this cut it helps keep me organized helps keep uh me going through keeps me consistent throughout the cut so you can see there is my sectioning and now this is the tri razor this is how you switch the blades out you just pop that top off and uh you can swap out the blades it's super super simple uh and now we're going to start our cut we're going to use 100 cutting side on the tri razor and i'm just going to slide through it now what i want to do is i want to create um just nice soft layers so i start in the mid shaft and i slide through the ends uh working my way out to the ends i don't just slide straight down i kind of glide out a little bit and what that does is creates that layering now if you want shorter layers obviously you just start a little bit higher up if you want in longer layers you start further down it's a pretty simple process to go through and i'm bringing every section straight back to me cutting a nice balance shape in the back with the layering and now i'm just going to pinch cut some of the ends uh just to soften that i'm going to go through and cut the ends a little bit later as well but i just like to see kind of where we're at with the balance of the haircut so 100 cutting side the tri razor has three different uh cutting sides so it has 100 cutting side and then two texturizing sides one takes out 25 of the hair and one takes out 50 percent it's just a really versatile tool being able to just kind of flip it and then take out different amounts of weight which you're going to see right here this is a really fun technique that i do with the tri razor so what i'm going to do is i'm going to pull out this section i take the 25 side i take out 25 percent of the hair and then i glide through and cut a line so i'm taking it just a little bit above uh where that mid shaft area is i glide the 25 percent which reduces the weight adds some texture and then i switch to the 100 percent side and then i cut my line to match up with the lengths that i'm working with in the cut so just a really fun way to to go through and texturize your haircuts so same thing 25 percent slide it through see how easy it glides through the hair and then at the very end i just take off that the rest of the length using the 100 cutting side so now look at those layers popping in the back it's you know just really really fun fast way to cut hair now we're going to work uh with a center parting and we're going to create a face frame on this cut so i wanted this one to have kind of a curtain fringe or a nice open feel to the haircut so what i'm going to do is i'm going to pull the hair in front of the face off to the one side and then i'm going to start cutting my line i'm going to leave some length in the front uh we're not really going for a total fringe in this haircut and then once i have my guideline i just slide it through so the blades are so sharp that we have in the tri razor um that you can just slide it you don't even have to carve and and kind of chop at it you can really just slide once you have your line you put the razor where you want it and you glide it through and you get a nice soft line on any texture of hair you can uh slide just like that through it so same thing on the opposite side we take a little piece as our guideline and then we just work our way so we're pulling the hair uh from the left side of the head over to the right side and cutting it and sliding through so you can see all the layers that we created with very little effort now i'm going to go in with paul mitchell invisible wear uh this is volumizing whip uh just to pop some volume in there a nice light hold feel to it i'm using the ergo diamond head brush uh which is my favorite mini paddle brush we have it available on shop fse which is our store or go to free salon education dot com and hit the shop uh and you can pick up the tri razor the ergo brushes the combs the clips everything i'm using in this uh and now we're just going to go through with a little hot off the press once i get uh the blow dry going i get about 80 dry i like to go in with a thermal protectant uh hairspray and i spray that over before i do my iron work um using some dyson tools you guys will have tons of questions about that i'm sure it's a cordless flat iron from dyson it's called the corral i'm using that to just iron this out i really love this iron for longer hair um i've definitely found that uh with shorter hair it's a little bit harder to get in those tight spots so i like using this on longer hair it's got beautiful plates in it they flex and move and kind of form to the hair uh and just you know full disclosure dyson sent me this iron it's it's a little bit pricier iron they sent it to me for free i did some sponsored videos with it now i'm just using it because i enjoy it in certain uh cases this is not a sponsored video by them but yeah definitely a really nice iron we also have some new dry hair cutting clips you can see right there those are available on our shop as well you can pick up i believe it's a four pack of them um they don't crease the hair when you're using them in dry hair that's kind of the whole purpose when you put a regular clip in with a lot of tension it'll put a crease in the hair so it just kind of helps with that i really love those clips so check out the fse uh dry cutting clips uh and they're also made of all metal which is really nice as well sometimes those dry cutting clips so those dry clips are um made of like a plastic so it's kind of cool uh so see i go in now i'm using a scissor to get a nice blunt edge on the bottom that's a preference uh it doesn't you don't have to do that but for me i just like to have in that nice clean line at the bottom so razor creates a really soft line which is great for texture great for you know movement and a scissor just creates that blunt edge nice clean appearance to the hair so the combination of the two tools work really well together now i'm going in with my 50 percent texturizing side and i just attack those little weight areas to remove some of that bulk from the very bottom of the hair you can see how easy that 50 percent cutting side glides through the hair so now we're going to go in with invisible wear undone texture hair spray this is by paul mitchell as well and i'm just going to use it just to define the front of the hair look at that beautiful face frame that we created with the razor just by sliding it through gliding it through the hair no effort whatsoever really really fun tool this is my new favorite thing to cut hair with and obviously we built it from scratch so uh it's going to be my favorite anyways but uh
