 The Hair Dressers podcast starts now. Featuring Matt Beck, Christina Cavalcanti, Brian Hare, Brea Boland, Thaddeus Boland, and Justin Scott. Hey guys, this is Matt Beck from freesaloneducation.com episode 86. Yeah, this one's good. This is going to be good. So we have some stuff to talk about. I'd love to say that we have a lot to talk about, but it's summertime and I don't think there's a ton going on, but we do have new cool things like Periscope. So if you guys are on Periscope and you want to follow, we're kind of posting on that throughout splitting hairs, but for the most part just throughout the week with what we're doing in the salon. And we have a lot of other stuff going on. So we'll start off. We've got Brian Hare, Brea Boland, Justin Scott, Thaddeus Boland, and Christina Cavalcanti hanging out. So yeah, so we're going to go over industry news. We're going to chat about that. Justin's got that going on. We have Brea Boland with the trending tresses. Some celebrity changes this week, right? So we have a few things and we're excited for those of you that have jumped on. We didn't get the link out very quickly, very quickly. So we're getting some of our people. It was Cyprian. All right, I feel better now because we didn't have our normal live people jumping on. So I'm excited for that. Well, Kristen Collins just logged on too. Oh, cool. All right, so I'm feeling better. They're coming. Yeah, they're coming. Slow start. So welcome to episode 86. Thank you guys for your support with FreeSalon Education. I would love to start off with, I've been posting a video every single day of the week. And those of you that follow us, obviously we're going to get more people involved than just me posting a video every week, but we've been doing and I got to get you guys in here so we can start filming some things. We did film something with you the other day. So we have some more interesting topics coming up and I want to get into more than just haircutting. So Brian's periscoping right now. I am. What's your hairstyle? Yes. Or do you look up your name? I don't know. Is it name or I don't know? I don't know. I just signed up and then that was it. So check, check out all of us. Are you on periscope? No. No. Fashion squared said hi. Hi. I downloaded the app. Does that count for something? You downloaded the app? So this is where I'm thinking, I think even if you're not, I don't think everyone needs to broadcast all the time. Oh good. I'm not saying everyone as you guys. You guys can do it whenever you want, but I'm saying people in general, I think you could download the app and just watch people. I don't think you have to be a broadcaster. So I think it would be cool because there is a lot of hairdressers in the industry that are using periscope right now and it's kind of cool because you get to be a part of their life. Some of them use it a lot and it's like okay, I don't need to know everything that you're doing throughout the day, but then some people post it like Phil does hair. He's on there a lot, but I think it's interesting and he's always doing something cool. Like he was at the Vidal Sassoon Academy, so you got to take a tour of that and that's what periscope is all about. It's being able to instantly be somewhere else in the world from somebody else's eyes, almost like you're teleporting there and that was the whole goal of the company. Amen. Is it like only live or is it like once you finish broadcasting, does it go into an archive? I think if you watch it for like what, 24 hours? Or if you guys follow each other? I think it's a little longer. It's like a feed, so as soon as if you follow a lot of people, that feed keeps pushing down and I think eventually it just works its way out, so it doesn't hold on to it. So it's not like forever, but it's like more than just a lifetime. Yeah, as far as I know. So it's like Snapchat and Instagram, I've had a child. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, Skype was the milk man in the background. Yeah, I wish I would have come up with this idea because I think it's awesome. I think so many hairdressers are doing education on there and it's a way to just get into everybody's world if you want and see the people that you look up to and what they're on their day-to-day life. So I think it's kind of cool. That's pretty much it on that, but I think if you guys aren't following, follow Freestyle on Education on Periscope, follow Brian, and hopefully everybody else. I'll sign up, but I'll make sure I have it. Do it right now. So that's cool. So do you want to, what else should we talk about? Are we talking about what we did this past week? Yeah, actually, yeah, I wanted to talk about that. So we did a shoot for SuperSilk, which we did on Periscope as well. We showed it off. So we had models come in and pretty much everybody was involved for the most part. Justin had some things he had to do. We had more shoots coming up, so I know he already feels bad about it, but I said, you know, this is the first of many shoots that we're going to do. So why don't you guys talk about your experience with what we did? I had a lot of fun with it. I enjoyed, we each kind of all had to find a task. You know, we wanted to show the versatility of using SuperSilk in different ways. And so we sort of each paired off with a model. Each of us being Matt, Dre and myself. That was like running everything. He was making sure things worked. Yeah, he made sure that we had something to watch us do this. And so we each kind of sort of just had to figure something out to do. And I, of course, shocker to no one did some balayage that day, but at least tried to change it up a little bit every now and then. Okay. At least I tried to change it up a little bit so that I wouldn't get such a hard time. Yeah. And, you know, incorporate the SuperSilk into my model. And we had some fun, like I really liked the end result. It was really cool. Yeah, I'm excited for everybody to see what happened. Dre probably worked harder than, Dre did work harder than anyone the entire day. That was an arm workout on Dre's model. Yeah. Yeah. It had coarse, curly, thick texture. And we had to smooth it out. And we didn't get to do what we wanted to, which was then rinse it and show off the curl. Yeah. But it wasn't just her texture. She just had so much. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. Yeah. And it was deceiving too, because you look at her and you're like, it looks thick, but like as soon as I got my hand in it too to kind of hold a little bit for you, I was like, whoa, this is like a lot. So yeah, she definitely had a lot of hair. And I'm excited because we exchanged numbers and she's gonna have pictures of her hair in its natural setting afterwards. So I'm really excited to see that. Yeah, I'm just really excited to see that. Yeah. And I mean, working with super silk, the cool thing was we did every aspect of the salon for that shoot. And we use super silk in everything that we did, you know, from putting it in the hair color to, which is basically like taking us extra protein or silk amino acid and putting it into the hair color and letting the hair color infuse it together, because that's what really what you're doing. It's almost just speeding up the process of a smoothing treatment, you know, instead of taking a smoothing treatment and running an iron over it after the color service and processing it and doing all that, you let the color process it for you. So we did that. We also sprayed it in before we cut the hair and then let it process during a haircut. We put it in your demi color. We, and we did the full treatment as well. And we did it before a blow dry. So the versatility of super silk I love. And that's, you know, being able to create videos based on that. And we have three great models. We got cool with that product. So I'm excited to showcase it and to have it on shop FSE so that you guys can get the product as well. So, so yeah, that was our weekend. Thad's model, we did the full super silk treatment on and her hair is like glass in the photos. It was blown away. And I think let me see if I can do a little preview. You guys won't be able to see this very well, but I don't I should have done that. No, and so here's a few of the models. Yeah. And wait, go, go back one more time. Is there some on my girl's face? What do you mean? There's yeah, there's a dot because I took a picture of it. Yeah, it's like, yeah, he gave her a beauty mark. So, so yeah, so very cool photos and the hair turned out beautiful. So I'm really excited to be able to share that with everyone when it's done. So it was nice. Dude, it was a super silk treatment. So I was there in spirit. You did. Yeah. Okay. How did that go? There's always awesome. All right. Cool. So and they redid the packaging, which was cool too. So I'm loving the new packaging and stuff. So just really cool product. I also want to give a shout out to MinervaBeauty.com, which we have a I created a video the other day when Christina was power washing the windows. And so I'm sitting there talking to the computer and we and we were doing a giveaway kind of thing more of like a not a giveaway a discount giveaway sort of thing. So that video is coming out. So stay tuned for that. But you could be able to get a special price on these bad boys behind me these stations. So exact ones. Can we sign them and sell them for more? I don't think that makes them worth more. But yes, if you want. If you can find a buyer. Yeah, exactly. I can do you work on that. You give me a task. So right. So we so that'll be coming out soon. So check out MinervaBeauty.com. I also we have Mizetani scissors. I believe all of the refurbished are pretty much gone. There's a couple left. So if you guys want those, I know there's some texture scissors. If you guys are looking for that, I have a video coming up where what not to do with texture scissors. So that's things you see people do with them. Yeah. And speaking of video, Chris, should I talk about this video thing? Or should I keep my mouth shut? No. Okay. So if you have to ask that question, the answer is probably I know. But okay. So we have so that's pretty much it with that millennium systems international. We have the experience coming up me and that are going. We got our flights. So that's official. We are going to Scottsdale, Arizona. There's going to be some great people there. And instead of broadcasting live the interviews like this, we're going to be periscoping the entire weekend. So I worked that out with them. So I don't have to bring all this equipment. And I can just film the interviews the way I always do, which is with regular cameras and edit it and all of that, which makes it better quality anyways. So we have our own booth within the mall at the experience. So stop by our booth if you guys are there. I think there's around a thousand people that have signed up for this event. So looking forward to seeing everybody. That's cool. All right. Industry news. Industry news. Let's get into that. And now, now, air industry news from Justin Scott. You already have sound effects. Stop that. I keep going with them. Cool. So we have some pictures. Let's bring this one up first. You have pictures over there. There's a two little like it looks like text messages. Okay. Pop one up the longer one. I follow a few different curl it. Okay. I follow a few different like hair things on Facebook, like pages, other hairdressers use. And one thing that a lot of people are coming in saying loud is that there's a big scam coming out now. They finally try to scam hairdressers. We don't usually see that here in like New Jersey, Pennsylvania show and do booth rentals that much around here. Right. But people who do obviously put their name out there with their cell phone. So that way they have the direct contact with the guests and whatnot. So people are sending out like mass text messages. And as you can see from this lovely image, and then the next one she can post up, like it just looks like poorly translated English, like any eBay scam or Amazon scam, whatever you get into. So I just want to kind of warn people with that. But another one, the big one she posted, the person who posted it said that they contacted a human trafficking network because this is apparently a really big problem. But they're trying to like bring in these girls to get like all their hair done and then ship them off to some miserable life of slavery. So if you get these messages, like the big long one like I have popped up, they say just contact human traffickers and let them know, but do not engage, do not try to have them come in or anything. Matt, we got one of these. Remember? Remember the email and like it didn't even make sense? Oh yeah, I do actually. Okay. We totally did. You see, you guys got human trafficking letter. It wasn't a text, it was an email. And I'm like, this is so broken up. It's like my mom was scammed about a place before for rent the same way. And they tried getting her information saying that they lived overseas and like we're trying to rent this place, blah, blah, blah. But yeah, it was all broken the same kind of thing. Yeah. So if you have this and you see it's sketchy and they're trying to really have like multiple women come in or girls and just contact human trafficking network of your own country. Yeah, don't book anything through text. Do not book anything. Oh, and who is it? Andre? Oh, tank top. It's an old classic. Nice. That is a classic. Couldn't help it. But yeah, that's one of my bigger stories. I don't know what you got going on here. Something else in the news. Iran. Iran is in the hair news. Brian ran too. Brian did ran. And so is Iran. Okay. Iranian women, we've seen like the news in Middle East and everything. And they wear the burkas, which is the ones where like it covers their whole face a lot. It's not like a religious thing out there. It's actually the law. Like if you don't cover your hair and your face and all the stuff like you're going to jail. It happened about 1979 during a revolution. That's when everything changed. So there's a huge uproar through social media of women trying to kind of go against it and like let their hair sway in the wind and kind of be free like they should be. Right. So it's really cool to see all this. It started as a trend with somebody who was from there lives in New York now and kind of wants to start a revolution and it's it's going it's getting getting some speed. So I wish them the safest luck out there in Iran. Yeah. With this whole movement they're doing. Yeah. That's interesting. I mean, so what are I would like to look up about what the hair salons are like and how much what's the like, you know what their country well, there's several in there's several different types of like headdresses they wear. The Burke is the biggest most aggressive one where they have like a little shawl here that still you can't see the eyes is just covered over it. Right. But they still have to wear like headdresses where their whole hair is covered. They want them to just like not show it at all. But I don't really think that there would be a big hair industry out there for women. But like in other countries like hygiene and taking care of that kind of thing is is still so I'm just curious. I don't know. I'd love to know that. Maybe look into. Yeah. We come to news. Iran. All right. Little update. Little update. Yeah, I got that. But so yeah, that was kind of nice. You okay? Yeah, I'm fine. You got the phone. What else? Another, you mentioned earlier it's the summertime and like a lot of news isn't going to be happening. But since there's a summertime, there's going to be a lot of outdoor festivals. When it comes to outdoor festivals, there's going to be charities. The city of Hope Rock the Cure is having an event in California on July 2nd. Who is putting this together? Kevin. Kevin watches the founder of Earthly Body Incorporated and also the founder of Provena. Steven Goddard. They're joining about 50 like celebrities and music acts and performers to put on a huge event called Rock the Cure. 100% of the proceeds are going to charity. Nice. This is for I believe cancer research. It took me a while to figure out where the proceeds go. That's never a good thing. Well, it's every time you trust us. Just give us your money and trust us. Yeah, we'll see where it goes. Every time you look it up though, it just tells you about the event doesn't tell you where it goes. So I did a little digging and it looks like it's all for cancer research, which is really cool. They should, but they are going to put more about who's going to be there rather than that. I think it's like 30 bucks in advance, 40th door and then 100 for a VIP ticket. But it's going to be at this like big country club, which apparently holds a lot of people. So July 2nd at the Canyon Club in Agora Hills. Christina, you and I are going. Surprise. Happy birthday. Nice. I can show you. Somebody run this. I'm going to go shopping. I got this. I can do the news. And the last thing I found is the UN is recommending bands on microplastic and cosmetics. Okay. Do we all know about this? No. There's little pieces of plastic, microplastics in everything from sunscreen to makeup and everything and toothpaste, toothpaste, the beads. Yeah. There was a bead in somebody's sandwich when I picked up your sandwiches. Really? Yeah. I didn't mind it. It was fine. Well, it wasn't in your sandwiches. Was that what the crunch was? Yeah. Was that the crunch was? No, I don't know. But that's when I walked up to the bar to pick up your food for tonight. The guy was complaining because there was a piece of plastic bead about this big in his sandwich. But they said that yours were fine. Yeah, we're good. I didn't die. I got salad. That stuff happens in restaurants. I hate when people make a big deal about it. I know. Yeah. I get over it. It's like fine hair. You just keep going. All right. Just move it. But the UN is looking to ban microplastics and everything because it's all getting caught up in the ocean. And after years and years of pollution, it's getting really, really bad. So the UN is banning together, not just America, not just, you know, the whole world. The UN. So that's pretty cool. The last little bit of news, the personal news. I taught a class at a salon down near me, a good friend of mine, Nicoletta, asked me to do it. And she just opened her own salon in West Long Branch. It's called West End Salon. So I just want to wish her the best of luck, whichever camera. When did you teach there? I taught there. When did we teach her? That's when that came with me. Oh, okay. Yeah. Over in Howell. And that was at her salon? That was at a salon. She worked at. She was like a manager. Right. Okay. Okay. So she left them, good terms, and she opened her own in West Long Branch, and I just want to wish her the best of luck. Nice. Yeah. Yeah. Yay, Nicoletta. She and I went to beauty school together. I talked her into chopping all her hair off because I knew she was going to hate it. I didn't do the haircut, but I talked her into doing it. She likes it was the blonde from the Pussycat Dolls had like this really cool asymmetrical like pixie on one side and then like a piece over here. And she was young at the time and blonde. And she's like, I think that would be really cute. I'm like, then do it. You should do it. Seriously, do it. And they like browbeat her into doing it. I think she was crying before the haircut was even over. Nice. And showed up the next day with like glue and hair extensions in her head. It was hilarious. Everyone that went to school with us, we still retell that story. I'll never, I can't look at her the next, next time I see her at the gym, I'm going to tell that story to her, safe surprise. Matt did that to me. I just went out and bought really nice fancy earrings. It's true. Yeah. I did do that to her. And it was actually right before a wedding. It wasn't the Pussycat girl haircut. I had just met her and you wanted to cure a nightly haircut. And I was very confident and I was right out of beauty school and I said, you know what? Yeah, totally do that haircut. And she right away said, I look like a boy. And then we went. Oh, I did. And everyone else did. The little boy. The little boy in Walmart. Yeah. This little boy in the middle of Illinois. Can I say this? Is that okay? It's so rude what he says. Yeah. So this little boy in the middle of Illinois. We're on our way back. We're driving, but we stopped at Walmart for some reason. I don't remember why. To stretch our legs. Yes. And then I found something. So we're walking through it. And as if Christina doesn't feel bad enough, the little boy with a mullet says, look at the gay boy with his gay boyfriend out of nowhere. Yeah. It's a compliment to you, but Christina. I know. So Christina is like, I wish I could say that guy is hot as you, Christina. Yeah. So, but I've done some pretty good haircuts since then, right? Kind of. All right. I've done all right. This is like a year into, not even a year of you being here. Yeah. It was, it was real, real. And you like totally highlighted it, orange. I did. Like very. I failed a lot, but you know what? That's what makes you better. You should see Christina's hair. I know it hasn't changed in like, you know, in a while, but through the first like five years of me being a hairdresser, she was everything. It's, well, yours too. Yeah. You used to have fun with your hair. Now you just keep it the same thing. I'd cut it once on the top, never again. They have bad hair. Yeah. You let me highlight it once since I started working here. And then that was it. Oh, that was so much fun. Can we highlight your hair again? Yes. Okay. You said it. It was on. Hey. Well, what? We're doing it. You can do it. I asked you the other day. You did. She did ask me the other day. Here. I want you to watch my balayage video. No, I don't want that. I'm kidding. Do the V's. What do you mean I don't want that? Flying V. It would look good. Right. Mighty ducks. Get all up in there. Smash brothers on your head. That's right. All right. So I don't even know what happened. That's the news. That's the news. And that's it. All right. Stop it. Cool. Oh, wait. Do you want to say what Claire said? Who me? Yeah. What Claire said? Oh, she sort of cleared it up because in the chat box they've been talking about how these women go about getting their hair done in countries like Iran. I didn't even see the conversation there. Wow. I was looking at my articles. Yeah. Let's sum up that conversation. Let's see. Claire. Thank you, Claire. Women with, I can't even pronounce it. They say JBS. Do get their hair cut, but they can't be any guys around to see them with their, okay. It's just like I used to work in liquid. Liquid has a very large acidic Jewish population. True story. When you, the married women can't, that's why they always have like long sleeves on and dresses all the time. Anybody besides their husband can't see there. People can't hear you. Really? Yeah. You're kind of quiet. You're, your things might be loud, but you're, get down on it. Sorry. Yummy down on that. I know. We're connected. Yeah, we got that. Let me try that. Anyways, we are. The women would come to the salon and they would be like super offended if I was walking to the back of the shop to pick something up because I had to get color or whatever to use on my guests in front of the shop because they would have like a partition up and I couldn't see their hair. So it makes sense, but I don't see it being a very large industry. It's a cultural thing. Yeah, it's right. How they roll? Yeah, it's their thing. Yep. That's cool. I like to understand that stuff. So it's nice. Yeah, I'm just pointing at Drea. Do something, Drea. I won't look at Drea. There's Drea. There's Justin. There's Brian. All right. And you're Matt. And there's Thad and Christina. Is that milk still over here? Yeah, he takes that thing out to dinner with him and everything. I mean, some of it's left gross. Drink it right next to Christina. Do it. Make me when I have it. Valerie says, I love you guys. Thankful for and then it disappeared, but she's thankful. Valerie, we love you. I'm thankful for playing too. Yes. Thank you, Valerie. All right. So that's all. That's the industry news. Trending. Trending Tresses. Sure. Trending Tresses. Get the 411 on Celebrity Hair Changes. Here's Trending Tresses with Drea Boland. All right. So this week's Trending Tresses is short and sweet. So Kate Mara has... Short and sweet. It is. It's short and sweet. Has chopped her hair off into a really nice, cute, long, pixie, really super short bob. I was saying her hair is short and cute. Get it? Make your jokes sort of went into it. All right. I asked Drea. Thank you for explaining it though. Thank you. So hold on. Drea was doing a play on words with that and her haircut. Is that what you're saying? Oh my God. She wasn't. I did. What's happening? She didn't get her own joke. No, she... I could tell by her face. Uh-huh. Yeah. Uh-huh. All right. Everyone on Periscope just so you know, you can go on YouTube and see a better version of this. Live. Better. It's the same thing. It is. Better quality. But so it's not... I like it. It's that fun in between haircut where it's not super short pixie, but it's fun. It's flirty. A lot of people are... She's pushing it behind her ears, so I don't know how long it is in front. But it's a nice little change. I'm really coming around to liking her. She's so cute. I love her. I like both those haircuts on her. I can't decide which one I like better. I think she has a face for everything. Her coloring, she's been blonde to red to red. You know, I think she just... She transitions very well. She used to remind me of Falcor, but now I think she's pretty. Oh. Okay. She's cute. She's not a babe, but she's cute. She's done my love Falcor. I just want to ride her back. And then Britney Spears has also chopped off her hair. She just didn't do it as fun this time. She has so much money. Why does she always have such bad hair? You know what? It's probably because she had a stylist before all this fame and everything, and they were terrible then, but they're really good friends. She doesn't want to break his heart or her heart. Well, I hope one of my clients gets crazy Britney famous, so I just get to go. See, I don't mind the length of the haircut, but I'm not liking his hair bangs right now. And I feel like they're not long enough to be side swapped. They should have just... That react. Did you see Matt's reaction to this? Come on, Britney. It looks like if Sideshow Bob kept his hair down, that's what he would look like. That is real bad. It looks like I cut her hair. Someone got a flowbie for their birthday. It's Britney, bitch. Well, I think what's happening too is I think it's supposed to be just super smooth and sleek and one length. But she's done this little puff up, like... Looks like a mushroom thing to the top of her head. That's something different. I didn't go there. So, yeah. No, like the top of a mushroom. Yeah, I know what you mean. Like a helmet. Yep. Let me debut my horrible haircut in between really expensive cars. That was a good find. Yeah, so I didn't even see that anywhere else. Not many people are talking about it. That's why. Did she delete that right away? She's actually staying inside. Her smile even says... I feel like Britney's body language. Oops, I did it again. All right, writes itself. On that note. On that note, last but not least is Selena Gomez is the new face for Pantene. Oh. She should be the new face for Super Silk. That's what that girl's hair looks like. She needs to stop with the bad choices. Come on now. Justin Bieber and now Pantene. Come on. Pantene's a step up from the Biebs though. I'm pretty sure that Pantene pays a lot. I saw a random picture. I meant to tag you in it and I didn't. Justin Bieber actually just got a good haircut. Jaya, I think hair right. Pantene probably does pay a lot. Pantene pays a lot. Like, and that's why all these celebrities kind of go with them. She's super cute. Plus, it's not like their professional style is trying to protect anything. They're like, oh yeah, shampoo will pay me a lot of money. I mean, sure. And she goes home and uses. Schwab. Yeah, whatever she wants. I mean, all she has to do is stand there for a little bit. I like the way it smells. Yeah. And cash the check. Right. Yup. And that's it for our trending dresses. That is it. That's it. That is it. All right. So I think how are we going to have, how are we going to pick the person to play Free Pong today? Are we going to do social media? Let's do social media. Yeah. Well, why don't they call in? Let me do this. Do we do a call? Because I don't know. How many people do we have on live? I think 16. Really? Yeah. Oh, that happened quick. 15 fans in one.

Otherwise, we'll pick somebody from like Instagram or something. Or Periscope. Whoa. Let's pick someone. Let's pick someone from Periscope right now. How are we going to know how they see us if they call? They're on there right now. People are going to call right now. Yeah, but so are they. They're not going to call.

So, and I don't think we have much show left. I think that's pretty much it. We have social. Yeah. I mean, Brian kind of has a segment. Yeah. All right. Let's do it. All right. They're edging me out. Yeah. Sorry about that. So, FSE Social, coming at you from Brian Hair. Yeah. All right. So, first off, I actually see this came up just now. Jose Rivera, who's been with us for a minute, has brought up that we had talked about doing videos involving chemical texture services and we still have not. So, are we planning on doing that? I would totally do a perm video. Yeah. I think we had that coming up. You know, we're in the process of doing a lot more filming and having a lot more live models. I think that's where it was. You can only do what you can do on a mannequin and we do what we're good at. So, we've done color. We've done that. So, now, I think perming would be great. It's one of those things where everybody keeps saying perming is coming back, but no one's made it happen yet. So, I think it would be cool to showcase that and maybe figure out how perming can be cool. Because it is. I'll do one. You know? So, yeah, I think we should all work on techniques that would change an industry of perming. I think it would be pretty neat and we could play around with some stuff. So, I'm going to perm Christina's hair. I believe that will be... I was going to say, you can do pads. I would totally do. I love the smell of perms. Me too! Wow, you're both freaks. I don't know what's wrong with you. You love the smell of perms. God, you guys need help. And you love the smell of a perm. Do you also like riding an egg salad? Yeah. Yes. How about dead skunks on the side of the road? Yep. Stop it. Matt seriously does the smell of horse and cow poop though. I don't like the smell. I grew up. I don't like the smell. I don't like the smell. I grew up with the smell. I don't like the smell. I like the gold coins. I don't know. Hayden and I drive past a farm. And we're like, and Hayden and I would be like, Oh my God, put the window up. Put the window up. Ask Christina how she says manure. Matt's like, no, keep them all down. Don't ask me anything. What's going on with social media? How do you say manure, Christina? What? Yeah, I want to socially media. You remind me of other countries. How do you say it? Maneure. Say manure. I think my mic's messed up right now. Totally not how that works. All right. I'm in control. She says, she says manure, manure. No, what? Minor. Well, it wasn't proven. No. How do you say it? Minerva. I don't say. Maneuver? Maneuver beauty? Come on. I don't say manure. Maneuver? Or manure. Maneuver. Maneuver. You say manure. What's wrong with manure? I say manure. You say manure. Maneuver. Maneuver. Maneuver. No, I don't. How do you say it? Shut up. Come on now. All right. Maneuver. It's all shit. That's what it is. We'll talk about this later. It's a bunch of BS. I think some of this, it comes from Kauso too, Brian. Whatever. All right. First one, we had somebody ask us, I'm really just going to roll through the questions on these because there's a lot. Somebody has asked, is it possible to give lessons for beginners who didn't learn hair cutting foundations? I know that we do have videos. Yeah. They're on the app. How shall we redirect? How do we direct someone to that? Because there's a lot of videos at this point. There's the 14 steps on the app. Yeah, but everything's put into a playlist and on our website, I think that's the challenge is people get stuck on YouTube and we've talked about this before and even my client earlier, I was talking to him because he has a company that he's launching and he was talking about, well, it's hard because if I put out a Facebook ad, people are going to go to my Facebook and not my website. Well, people don't really go to websites anymore. They go to social media sites to learn all about everything you're doing. The challenge with that is I've built a website for free salon education where everything is very categorized. So all you have to do is go to free salon education, click on education videos, and there's a drop down menu and it says 14 steps to becoming a better hair cutter. There's hair cutting fundamentals. So there's all different types that are all categorized so you can see all those videos. Wait, wait, wait, wait. You mean I got to work for it? You have to type in a website. What about those videos from, is it the SASS student, like the ABCs? Those are good too for people. Yeah, of course. I mean, there's like- To let him, I don't know. Yeah, I mean, I'm just saying because he had posted on ours asking about us doing. But also to let him know about those because those are great. Yeah, and let's talk about those because ABC, the Dallas SASS student, it's hard for some reason though. I went on the SASS student website and you can't, they don't sell DVDs on there anymore. So I don't know what's happening. Maybe they're going to move to like- Maybe they're transitioning right now. Subscription based, I don't know. Do you want me to try to get them? I can get a hold of them. Well, I have it. I have it. I know a guy. Justin, the bootleg fell off the back of a truck. Don't ask me any questions. I know a guy. I'm not that blood, it's ketchup. I know a guy going. He's got a truck with DVDs in the back. But you have DJ has a subscription based thing, DJ Muldoon. So if you check out thefactoryhair.com or something like that, I believe it's that. There's a subscription based. I think there's a lot of things out there. I think it's a factory. I don't think it's factory hair. I think it's the factory hair because I'm sure thefactorywas.com was taken. I'm pretty sure. But he's really good too. He's really good. I mean, if you're- Like fundamental wise, I think he breaks it down and teaches it really well. Yeah. We have our free stuff and it's great and it's fantastic. And if you were looking to go and learn, because I strongly believe in you learning from multiple people. I don't think anything that I've tried to collect in my head has come from one person only. DJ would be one of those people, but there's many people that you have to learn from. Because- Right. Well, that's how you build your style. You get little bits from everybody to create your own style of doing something. Thefactoryhair.com. Thefactoryhair.com. And then also on our app, you can do the 14 steps to haircutting too, which is pretty easy. I like our app. Our app's cool. You can't find it anymore. I don't know why. Something I'm working on. I know the guy who did it. But those of you that have the app, already have it. Yeah, already have it. And it works really well. For some reason, iTunes isn't- You type it in and I can't find it. So I got to figure that out. But our freestyleneducation.com mobile site is good as well. So you can find all the videos through that. But yeah. So I think from a fundamental standpoint, there's so many outlets nowadays to find that stuff. And ours would be the 14 steps. There you go. It says you can do the ABC cutting hair the Vidal Sassoon way on Amazon. Yeah, it's primate. But that's being sold from somebody. Not my guy. Like I bought it on eBay once and it was completely bootlegged and the DVD didn't work. When I finally got it, I bought it off eBay and that's why I don't use eBay anymore. Because every time- Oh, go on Sassoon then. It says it's there. ABC cutting DVD series. That's what I'm wondering though because I remember the other night. I went on there. I was going to buy the ABC collection. I was going to buy their latest collections because I wanted some inspiration. And there's no DVDs for sale. So I contacted Travis from Chicago about that. So it's- Right now- I mean you could find the ABC if you want to or Google it. It probably comes up somewhere. But look for the fundamentals. No? All right. No, it comes up. I don't know if you can get it though. It seems like the only one that- the Amazon thing was the only one. But go ahead. Okay. We had just gotten a nice shout out from Krista Schaefer who appreciated that we actually do all of our own everything social mediaing. And it had just you- I believe it was you had commented something to her. She'd commented on some Instagram picture and you told her you liked it. And she got excited because we do this and we love talking to these people. And- I try really hard to get back to everyone that writes something. Because I think when I look at- There's people that I've looked up to like and you write like- You don't even get back to me. That's because I'm getting back to- No, I do get back to- Christina, he doesn't get back to me either. That's why we just need to start texting each other. I know. I feel like we all get the shaft while everyone else is getting back to. I love you guys. We know. But I do try. I try to get back to everybody. He has Justin's face. I wish the camera was on him. I love being in this seat because I could see everyone's eyes and the rolling of- Yeah, like I could see the- I just want to clarify. I didn't roll my eyes. It wasn't a roll of the eye. It was a- That was sultry, Christina. I don't know what that was. Do I have a sexy sassy face? Is what you're saying? No. All right. Yeah. So, another one, Matt. This might be a good question for you. We've got somebody who's asked basically she wants to know a good video to go watch about cutting layers. She's having issues with blending and issues and stuff like that. Of the cutting videos that you've done is there one that you feel is like a good fundamental like good layered haircut that could be adapted easily? Yeah. In the haircutting fundamental section of freesaloneducation.com there is a layered haircut that goes over how to create layering seamless layering so you don't get all that weight and all of that. But I'm going to do a video coming up on layering as well because what I've been trying to do now is put out three-minute tips on everything. But everything that comes to mind I just I mark it down in my notebook thing on my phone and then I just have a list of videos that I'm going through. So, if I think it's something that could be important. I mean we've gone over everything even this week from what cutting lotion I use or I didn't even talk I said cutting lotion because I knew that would draw people in and then I told them use your favorite product is cutting lotion. I mean that's cutting lotion is great and everything but you don't have to do all that. And then we did even cutting on top of your fingers. I mean it's like the simple things that people take for granted I think when you're cutting hair throughout the day they're just on top of their fingers chopping away when really you should have the tension nice and tight in your fingers it's things that people don't think about. Hopefully layering will be next. I'm going to be filming the next couple of days some more videos on that. And then finally on our chat box our good friend Andres Benola who I always love to see on here said Matt check out essential looks from Schwurpskopf their collections are actually very good. Okay well that's cool. There you go and apparently accessible because he's suggesting it. Yeah I think for me it's like we all take inspiration from different things and when you're actually Anna just put up something good on a neaterhouser. It's I'd never heard this it says it takes an industry to make a stylist which I thought was good. I like that. Do you need me to say that because I know you were not listening. It takes an industry to make a stylist. Sorry I was dropping his phone somewhere into the beverage what I was just showing you no why do you have to have a working cell phone? I thought that was really good and that was awesome and I appreciated her saying that. Okay can you say it one more time? Sorry. It takes an industry to make a stylist. It's a nice way of basically putting what we're doing into one sentence. Exactly but not even what we're doing it's what everyone's doing. It's what the industry's doing. Exactly because it makes a stylist. It takes a lot of the stylist to make the industry. That's what we're saying. No Christina yes it's fine the way it is. You better watch it. No I agree with her 99% of the time. That is a great inspirational line to just take and just take it as it is. Take what? Take what? Oh Jesus Christ let's have people talk about it. It takes an industry to make a stylist meaning when you're learning don't follow just one person get your bits from everywhere. It's the whole half hour that we just spent talking in one sentence. Yeah. But the stylist make up all those bits the industry doesn't. I get it but I'm just saying I could have my opinion. We don't have to break it down it's not an opinion we get it you're right. Yeah no that's what we're that's what we're saying is it takes many stylists to create the industry. I get it. Do you guys want hugs? She just wants to put her own name after a quote. I get it. Do you want me? Yes you. No I don't I don't want to make up a quote at all. I just think that the industry always gets all of the credit. All of the big names like I'm taking it I guess a different way. I believe all of you should get the credit. We're not talking yeah we're not talking about like the names up on stage we're saying it's all of us. I took that as like each of you guys are the industry. So you all okay. I look at it as like then I totally agree with you. I looked at it a different way. Oh no no no. Okay sorry. Yeah no I look at like the the teacher I remember I had this great teacher phenomenal color teacher when I was in beauty school her name is Jess her last name is Graham now not Paige but she was great because she was trying to teach me how to foil and my like I didn't get it yet that I had to have my own way of doing it and I was trying to do exactly her way and I was like wait hold on how did you do that and she wouldn't show me again and she goes you won't you won't succeed if you try and do it exactly how I do it you have to find your way of doing it right that's because I was sitting here getting tripped up like I have to hold this in this hand and move it to this hand in this hand she's like no you have to find your way and then you'll get it right and that's where I just went from there was you gotta you have to find your way yeah you do but it's guided by everyone right right nice anything else nope no anything I'm good good good I'm good I wish I could do that right now because that's kind of how I feel so you have so we we're headed to the experience yep Arizona our bags are already packed really not really there's a lot of I hope not because it's kind of I know it's not it's kind of a long ways away but we have so it's it's closer than you think man I know well yeah sad packs an hour before he leaves for anything yeah but he does a good job I'm not gonna say what I was about to say I do that too I usually need a lot of this stuff yeah yeah that's a problem with packing but you have uh so you it was packed too much underwear you too much underwear you can never pack too much yeah I don't think that I forget socks no I'll have like eight pairs of underwear for like an overnight trip no see that's I feel like underwear dry the fastest if you were to have to wash them out that's the key to packing you need yeah you need lots of underwear and lots of socks or just go without them it's so easy not to have to wear underwear wherever we be honest with you that's really where I was gonna say but then I'm like me we went to I can't I should have what I said going on this tonight you can just go with that underwear no but I think it's easier to go without underwear than it is to go without pants and I'm gonna leave with that quote wait so clearly we haven't spent a weekend together Christina we uh why do you think I don't say this house anymore all right so if you guys haven't signed up for the experience in Arizona it might be too late but you should do it and don't wear pants yeah everybody don't wear pants don't bring that many underwear it's gonna be a no pants party it's not necessary all right Nicarojo is gonna be there also Gerard Scarpezi from Hairbrained with pants I do need to say thank you for sending the HVA certificate certificate of nomination for a war so I got this in the mail today from Hairbrained which was very nice it was because we were nominated for a Hairbrained video award thank you thank you for that so on that note follow us on Hairbrained as well Hairbrained.me Facebook Instagram all of those things Periscope follow Brian Hair hairstyle on everything on everything Dre Day 2289 I am Justin Scott Bad Bowl nice underscore Stiney and also next week we will have Donald Scott's interview from Orlando fantastic he didn't forget to build pack pants so that should be excited yeah no no interview today so no interview today we're done thank you guys so much for watching bye bye Felicia we'll see you see you next
