 Welcome to the video. So today what we're going to be focusing on is with Crystal our model She doesn't want to lose a lot of length in her hair, but she also wants her hair to be healthy So that's something that as hairdressers we struggle with because of the fact that you know You want your client to be happy, right? But you also need their hair to look healthy So me and Crystal we decided on about three and a half three inches being taken off of her hair So that's gonna get her hair back to a healthy state. You can see how weak it is right on the ends So I go through there. I clean it up. I'm also cutting the back at a one length And the reason I'm doing that is I want a nice solid line Crystal's also got a nice medium density of hair so it's not super thick So it works really well to cut that blunt line in the back And I'm going to continue bringing all of her hair taking a half inch parting at a time Section at a time and bringing it back and cutting that blunt line That blunt line is gonna give me a nice healthy appearance to her hair when we blow it dry So I just again you can see I take the half inch section Bring it back to me Comb it down and I cut a straight blunt line in the back nice and clean I'm gonna do the same thing on the opposite side So just working my way up the head combing it over the shoulder and cutting that blunt line Once I get this done the other thing I want you guys to notice is that Crystal wears a center parting So I want to keep everything nice and symmetrical as I work through it So I talked to Crystal did she want to bang what was she looking for in the very front of her hair She said you know I don't really want to bang but I do like those shorter pieces that I can kind of push back Which to me probably gives her that movement that she's looking for It keeps her hair cut interesting without her losing a lot of length Right so I go through I take diagonal forward partings I bring them across her face over to the opposite side of the chair And I cut basically with my fingers parallel to her jawline And the reason I do that is that gives me a nice kind of over direction That pushes that weight keeps the length in the haircut But also gives her a nice angle in the very front of her face So this is going to push the weight off of her face really open up her face So it's a great option I also you'll notice just so you don't miss this part I cut my guideline by pulling a little bit of hair down and cut it to match But you'll also notice when I go through here that I don't work all the way down the head shape Now you could but I didn't want to take away the length in the very front of her hair So all the temple area which is the longest lengths of her hair sitting in the very front I don't touch those I keep that at that blunt line that I cut in the back And I just add these layers until I get to about the parietal ridge You'll see that I pull a little bit over and then that's where I cut that angle So that gives me the life that I need but it doesn't take away the length in the front of the haircut So I continue all the way through doing that same angle keeping my fingers parallel to her jawline And now we're going to style her up so we're going to use the Joico power whip It's a whipped foam it's a level nine on their hold system which goes up to ten So it's got a nice hold to it it's great for building volume and also it gives a lot of condition and shine to the hair as well So I go through I blow dry that in using a paddle brush Then I go through and I do some iron work just to smooth her hair out And give a little bend to the hair and then I finish it off with the Joico power spray This is a level eight to ten on the hold scale It's definitely got a great hold to it and it helped kind of separate those pieces that we created cutting the face frame Here's the end result guys you can see all the pieces in the front but how clean and blunt it looks in the back Hope you guys like this cut if you have any questions about it hit me up on social media Thank you guys so much for watching I will see you on the next video
