I know I remember 89. I could have been there Your parents so So I want to give a shout out. We have a kind of a big day today because Not only are we doing the podcast and we have 10 hours in the salon I'm actually gonna run up to Millennium software and chat with the owner of Millennium software John Harms So that should be exciting. So cool. Don't forget my question. So we're gonna do a little interview. I will not All right, and then So Millennium they're always supporting us and everything that we do. So I want to say thank you to them And I'm looking forward to they have a huge event that I want to talk to John about Coming up in June. I believe it's in June. Yeah, but that it's called the experience You can check it out on I believe their new website address is Millennium SI comm Which is a little bit easier if you can't get it there then go to harm's dash software comm I think but google it. Yeah, check it out. It's always at a beautiful resort I've been there for the last two years. I've done classrooms there and it's always an unbelievable time and a thing I like about the experience is that and hopefully we can get you guys there soon but Last year two years ago. Tabitha was there last year. We were hanging with Martino Robert Cromings is there a lot of But it's a very intimate setting. There's not a ton of people Maybe 700 as opposed to most hair shows when you go there's like 7,000, right? So you can't get in close with any of the artists That's what I like about this event is you're actually you're eating lunch with them and you're hanging with them And that's so it's really fun Let's see. We have our best blonde contest that Ends ended. Yeah, it's officially as of this podcast over and I gotta say I was really impressed with what I saw out There yeah, we had a lot of great entries We did and what's cool is you know Matt's got it linked up So all of us get the notifications from pretty salon education on our phone And so just throughout the day I get all excited because I think someone's showing me love on Facebook But I realize it's just But either way so it's it's been cool just randomly throughout the day every day for the past month I'm getting to see what kind of cool stuff you guys are doing and it's been very impressive So today we're gonna officially go through all of our submissions and as a team like Hash it out decide which one is is gonna be our best blonde winner Well, and that's my thing too I like that we can do these contests But really just allowing people to post on the wall because normally and I don't even think Brian knew this Until this week because we were talking about how I cannot even see you I don't think you even knew this but if you post on somebody's wall It goes into posts by others and you can't actually see it like a lot of our some people can sometimes Facebook I'll let it through but they have this weird system on how Facebook works So it depends on how you post things what you post If they're gonna actually put it up or not for everyone to see so when people are sharing on our wall I like to turn around and reshare it so that oh, yeah, everyone can see it and I think Because that's what it's really about and from now on make sure when you share a picture on our wall I didn't put this on the contest, but make sure that you put the formula with it So that we're all learning from it and we can see I know one person posted a I forget the name, but maybe you can pull up a picture of The the girl with the pink in it a little bit. She's got a little bit of pink anyways, but we'll like tears What I liked about that is that he I think is a guy Put put the the story behind it right so and that wasn't part of the contest So we won't hold that against anyone, but that is good to know because especially with blondes every blonde is a story Yeah, you know we all know it's not that's one reason that I was so impressed with all this because I know it's not that easy To get blondes that look that good, right like it it took time. There was color correction involved There was toning there was everything involved So it would just be cool for us to know you know how to do it What was the story and if you have a blonde? It's like a level seven already and it's not that hard like there's a quick story exactly so We got all the kinds of things make sure you follow some Facebook. That's the one salon education. There it is Yeah, let's pull that up nice and big People aren't gonna be able to really see it that well, but if you go on our Facebook, you can really check it out But again, it's a story it says this guest was a natural level five had virgin hair So that's cool. That's an easy that's a little bit of an easy story But if you started a level five that's still exactly you're working through a lot of really warm dominant pigments And when you look at the end result here used well a blonde or blonde or 30 volume cream developer root to end with he whoa buddy and toned with blonde a well a 10 What is it called 10 stroke zero one? Yeah natural ash So pretty pretty awesome I think it's cool and then did the pink balayage from the video So it almost puts you in the place of what because we're hairdressers were visual I can totally picture his day in the salon doing that that was a nightmare To begin with but beautiful result So we really like that one and it just stands out to me mostly because of the story So yeah, and so did we officially ever decide what the the prize is gonna be from this? So we did Remember yeah, well, I didn't know you want to say it. No, you can so we're totally going with it So we have decided for the next few months. We're gonna do this contest so We're actually gonna start the best haircut contest Coming up for February. We'll make sure you we talk about what it takes to be the best haircut, right? Well, we'll go through that. I don't know it the one that's the most appealing more snow There's no flicks. Oh geez. We if you're not on the East Coast, we have had the most miserable winter It's freezing cold. It's everywhere now It's funny for me seeing all my friends back in Alabama posting like their first snow pictures ever Yeah, because they got like a quarter of an inch, right They're like, oh, the whole world is closed for the next six days Yeah, I think if you guys can see outside you can't but it's it's a nightmare more snow So all right The price of the color so the price of the color and we're gonna do this with every contest But the prize for the color is a personal class Not even class a personal hangout with Brian hair on Skype So we're gonna do that with every every contest for the next few months So we'll get in contact with you and sort of go over. All right, you know, we're gonna have this little I'm just not really a hangout like hey, what's up? I'm gonna take my phone to a bar and hang out Yeah, but I don't want it to be like it's not necessarily a class Maybe like a little one-on-one tutelage, whatever you want to go over anything Can learn from you you for me exactly that's it out about some hair That's my thought and then we can definitely Get them on splitting hairs possibly. Oh, maybe a call in or something and we can talk about what they did story but I Think it'll be really cool, and I just didn't want to say I don't want to say it's like Because they're doing the best blonde. Obviously they they're talented. They're getting blonde hair But I think it'll be a cool hangout and when I want to get them on splitting hairs to talk If they have any questions or want to learn a technique or anything from you You're open to that if they just want to jump on splitting hairs. Hey, that's cool, too Yeah, you know it's just open and we put out that opportunity and also I'll probably throw in you know We'll send them some cool right something cool. Obviously, so obviously Let's see Where are we headed next you want to go into questions from social media? Yeah, let's do that. All right cool Let's see this one This is from Expellogistic Yeah, I got that. Expellogosius. Yeah, pretty close Asking about the off of the Jennifer Lawrence pixie haircut video. Can you finish off the cut with thinning shears instead of point cutting? Believe this one's for you. Okay, so the pixie cut I did see this I Saw this question. I think the pixie cut for me. I don't yes, you can you can finish it with anything that you want I think The number one thing to realize is that if you're using thinning shears then there's not a Precise way to go about it. So I guess if I were Going to finish off I like using point cutting. That's why I did it Some people love thinning shears and sometimes I use them. So yes, you could Do I think it would be a little bit different effect possibly and I think you're gonna remove more hair than what I removed And I think when you do that when you remove too much hair You've totally you killed a structure that you were building or any line that you were putting in there So thinning shears are a tough thing and I know a lot of people have a lot of questions about it And I should do it. I really need to do a video about It can be one of the steps. Yeah. All right moving on before you answer this one I want to throw a comment to you Draya. Yeah, this is off of the cutting a side bang easy dry haircut face frame haircut Okay, I believe that's one that you guys just did right? Yeah, we just did that. Okay says this is great Can I ask is this technique work on shorter hair? Maybe Bob length? First of all, congratulations Your hair is now considered long I know and I keep trying to cut it I'm like so trying clipper Bob right because I Robert chromines does this clipper Bob And I just want to show a video on it and I think it would be fun And the only person I know I can talk into is right Because I know we're like in the long the the final stretch before this wedding She's got to be in that she's been trying to grow her hair out since the first hair cutting video we used her for yeah She's holding. She's holding strong. I'm impressed. So I'm very strong willed when I want to be so the side bang on short hair, right? Yeah, can you do it on something Bob length? Yes, absolutely. I've had it. Well, yeah, I mean we've been doing it on Andrea since Here right yeah, so Bob length you can do it on pixie cut. Yeah, I was gonna say anytime There's a side bang. That's just a way to do it, right? Yeah, this is a technique that is perfect in any situation on any part of the head, you know what I mean? So like we could it's it's following the round of the head and that's where round is gonna be soft So anytime you're following the round, you're just gonna create softness and not weight and heavy So if I over direct hair Let's say even if it's right here in the front. I'm still I'm always pushing extra weight So it's just if I decide to follow the round then I'm taking out that weight So it you can use it anywhere you could use it in the back If you feel like you always push a lot of weight there cut that with the round so Yes, short hair medium hair long hair any hair that can wear a bang. It's a great technique for that I've been wanting to do that video for a while. So I'm glad that Dreya actually for that video Left to work because she gets off at five o'clock on Wednesdays and I just want to say this because this is dedication Definitely she goes takes a I don't want to say what I thought the class. What is it? It's a bar class a bar class It's a ballet. I keep calling it a pole class because I'm thinking of a bar So there is a bar. It's just it's horizontal not vertical, right? So it's and it's like ballet Yeah, so you do like stretching and stretching and it's a lot of leg work And she does that class which that is like because he's so Ripped he's so ripped and strong and Jim guy. He's like. Oh, yeah, she's going to do that The bar class silly class. Yes, but whatever so we um We went she so she does that then she comes back and you live it half an hour away from here, right? So it's not like and she came back just to be a part of the video which is awesome So and it's it's things like that that are allowing us to share this information with the people that follow us and subscribe to us So, you know, it's cool. It's much better that we got to do it on you than on a mannequin So it just looked so much better. Well, I don't even think about it Like it's just fun to come back and do these things like and I think that's what shows in a lot of our stuff Is that we're very passionate about what we're doing, right? Right? We don't have to be here We don't have to be here. Yeah, I could totally be in bed right now. Yeah, I like being here I actually thought about it. Did you know? I was like, I'd be surprised if you thought about that never sleep. I like being here, too So we um, all right. All right. What are we next question? Yeah, I got it. There's a couple more on here Okay, cool This one I think is a good one for you, Matt Obviously, I can't answer it because I look ridiculous when I hear cut hair When you cut elbow up, do you ever change your feet position to what we call crossover? So, basically, it's just about yeah, this is a really long question But basically it is do you turn your feet so like let's say I'm standing in the back of the head Do I turn my feet to be parallel to my hand? So that was really all it was and and my answer to this would be I Don't think I think wherever you're standing that makes you comfortable is where you should stand I don't think it's necessarily if you're in the back of the head and you're comfortable with your feet parallel to the to your hand I think that's how you should stand if you're uncomfortable and it's gonna make your hand go weird Then don't stand like that. So I don't think I was never taught that way And any hair class that I've had no one focused that strongly on Feet and the position there just where you were standing not how you were standing. Yeah, so I think The best way I could answer that question would be if it's comfortable then stand like that Because if you're comfortable, you'll have a more consistent haircut if you're stretching everything You're trying to hold your arm up and and get well That's what I was always told is if you're uncomfortable You're standing somehow wrong exactly nothing about what we should what we do should put you in any kind of discomfort or pain While you're cutting hair Well, exactly and think about it if you if you've got your elbow way up in the air like this and it's it's straining you And it hurts then you're gonna start to drop just naturally as a human being you're gonna drop down. So Are you gonna be more consistent if you just let your elbow drop a little bit? But just follow that line on your hand I personally think you would so it just depends on what in your mind works the best to keep you consistent when you're cutting Fair enough, so it's all about consistency. Yes This one I get it. I we have to go over. I love it From Facebook if anyone can help me out it's you guys I've been asked from time to time to do a three-layered haircut meaning three distinct layers. This is Brian's favorite haircut How would you achieve this effect in a beautiful way? She's stumped. We need to help this person out Okay, Stephanie. This one's for you. Do you want to start? Well, I just want to start by saying Actually, Drea, what's funny is I can't really tell the story all by myself anymore because you were there We just didn't know each other back then. Yes, I saw a Platform artist one time explaining I think where this whole thing originated from saying what show is this hat? It wasn't it was it? We were both in school. Okay Brian was there. I was there. We just didn't know each other. We just didn't know each other at the six Who is that you'd be here? I know It was it was George Morales talking. Yes, okay, and that was the goddess room one, right? Yeah And he was saying that back when he was in beauty school the way that his beauty school taught to cut layers Was to get the hair dry nice and straight and then just take your scissors and go along the outside of the hair And yeah horizontal line and that was a layer. Okay, if they wanted two layers, then you go up higher Yeah, and do another one. So I think that that might be where that horrible I only want three layers or four layers originated because at one point they were cut based on how many you wanted to put in there Yeah, can you imagine how the hair felt like when you it how heavy it was? Looked or looked. Yeah, but so let me also say we've had a client here forever Who always asked for the seven layer haircut. It's actually she's Barrett's client now She used to go the old owner of here and she would always ask for the seven layer cut there's seven layers and dip Yeah, and the old owner They worked here with Sam Burns was it was his client and he he would give it to her so then Well, he would say he was giving it right, right, but he's not actually creating seven layers So he would just hold the hair up and cut it and then so she when he left here and we took over the slum She kept coming and she kept asking for the seven layer cut Just so you know, there's nothing about this at seven layers, but people just get I think that what I take that from is It's the amount of layering So if they say three then they don't want one two and three they just want subtle I think so that's how in the consultation I would discuss that right I mean I the way that I've taken it is okay. They want a little bit of layering They have something like this stuck in their head that means at some point Something has happened that they didn't like layer-wise right and yeah They researched it enough for asked whoever fixed it what to ask for in the future So I think it's gonna be about just getting that story What don't they like what hasn't worked for them and then adjusting it from there? I mean I tell people When they you know when I when I give them any kind of explanation on the topic like well How many layers is this gonna be I don't know it depends on how many hairs are on your head Oh, right the shortest one and then that many layers between there in the length. Yeah a million like I have a guy Peter he comes in I love Peter and he's like he's like Mac Can you give me that layered cut that you give me and it's like as short as my hair in the back I'm like well it is layers, but technically he calls it layers every time what but just in the consultation Don't stress yourself out. There really isn't a three distinct layer Yeah, we will never be doing a video on that You can't you can't unless you go along and chop them in and if that's what they want and do it It's we're please them man. Make them happy. I don't think that will but I'm glad that she's having a hard time finding that on YouTube But I hope this helps okay next Well, then we move from social media into the salon news Want to go into that? Yeah, just talk about the couple things because there was some weird stuff in the news My favorite is the barber that stabs the customer in China. Yeah, what so just a little rundown is real quick hairdresser in China The man complained about his haircut and the barber freaked out and stabbed him in the chest with the scissors Oh That is so okay. We can't laugh about this, but no that's that is insane We've all been there. We've all wanted to do it. You can't actually do it Right you go to jail when that happens this man is never in jail. I survived by the way Oh, he did. Yeah, you got some surgeries to repair punctured lung and he's recovering. He's he's doing okay. Wow That's a story to tell can you imagine like later in life when you're telling your kids he's like I can't run up this hill why I have a weird breathing problem my barber stabbed me in the chest with the scissors because He cut a hole over my ear. Yeah. Oh my god That'll teach you to complain though. I know but you know some of those barber scissors are like really intense and big Right. It's out. He was using little three inch ears. It's probably like the hedge clippers. They can get like seven and eight inches Well, and and so that's not even so that we had that crazy story this week And then the other the crazy story with the girl who committed suicide, which I don't you know, we don't have to get super into it It's a very sad thing. Yeah, but it was so wrapped around hairdresser Yeah, it was like she didn't like her hair color and and they kept pushing that pushing that and it's just like When as a hairdresser when you see that story and if you haven't seen the story on Facebook I'm sure you will because everyone that's not a hairdresser has tagged their hairdresser in this in this video or in this story But so she didn't like her hair color, I guess and she kept texting her hairdresser over 50 times and was going crazy about it And and then turns out she ended up committing suicide. So It's that'll go to show you that you got to get it right. Yeah, you got to get hair color, right? I don't think that should go to show you that you got to get the same But clients will text you over and over right. I mean we we've all been through that and you got to really think about Because we're in a people business I think is right the important part of what I'm saying So we just want to make sure that we're catering to people and we figure out their needs I have a guest coming in today that I Put some blonde in this week and she wants some low light So, you know jump in we do that and we just try to people please But it was weird that they wrapped a story around hair. Yeah in that. What's the next one? Um, I think Well, there's the thing about Forbes named or eBay haircare as And it's annual America's most promising company's list. Yeah, which is kind of a big deal. That's crazy. Yeah, and it's Forbes That's like the biggest deal. Yeah, or bae's definitely Working their way up. Yeah, I mean they're already up, but they're they're so awesome I've seen them I've seen them at a couple different things and and I have a good friend who who speaks very highly of their education and Everything and it's just cool to see they're a very small company. I think yeah, but they're getting big press Well, that's what they say. This is based on it's based on Growth, okay, that's what got them on the list. So that's huge. Yeah, that's cool All right, and then what do you want to move on to next? I think oh, I want to talk about the 20 for 20s Because this is our little business tip of the week This is a stack of cards. So we ran this promotion and I just wanted to kind of show How thick this is let me see if I can show so this is cards that were returned to us from clients so we ran this promotion. It's called 20 for 20 and Basically what happens is we give each guest that leaves a $20 off card with their name on it and they can give it to a friend so that friend can come in use the $20 off card and They'll get $20 off and then in return the guest that gives it to their friend gets $20 off. Does that make sense? Yeah, right, so Basically with that being said we had a bunch of them returned and this was a very very successful thing that we've done Some of these are loyal loyalty cards But so we did the 20 for 20 and we did a loyalty thing But this is a lot of return guests. Yeah, and there have been more than that because I'm really bad about saving I know you wanted him save to just throw him out. Yeah, this is why oh, sorry So make that stack a little bigger. So yeah, think about it like this thing But yeah, this was a stack of people that returned it so this is the stuff that works really well and It's just an easy card that says $20 off any cut in color for new customers only my friend blank Gave me this card. So that so then we know when it comes back who gave it to their friend So right but it worked really well. So make sure that you try it I think on our business page on freesalineeducation.com. There's a little template for How to create the 20 for 20 cards and what's what's cool with that is I Noticed with some of my guests. I would you know I'd give them one or two and I'd be like now be very selective about who you give this to right because if you Give this away to someone that you don't know that you just met at a party and they don't come back You don't get anything exactly and so, you know it it helped to sort of build that that tree of Loyalty and branching out, you know, your your guests are thinking about which friends they want to come to you or they trust to come To you, right, which is great because that's just gonna help build a stronger web of loyalty. Yep Cool at all. So and you came up with that idea, right? Yeah, tell me that idea. I mean who knows Did it is that something that you had done before or yeah? It was something in a previous line. I had worked at had done, but they didn't market it quite as well Okay, and it didn't they had the wording weird and nobody really understood what was Happening so I just always thought it could be simplified into a more easier Into an easier way of explaining it so that people understood. Oh, I'm getting money off as well as right This person exactly All right, so we are we're gonna move into Grammys trending trusses. Yeah. Yeah. All right Jaya keeps up with the trends all week and we try to watch him and we But this week we had the Grammys so there's gonna be just a few things that we noticed I have Beyonce up here. I'm gonna switch her over cool There we go All right, so let me just say her opening performance. Did you watch it? I saw everyone else's but I watched it I'm like trying to make it a point I mean me and Christina miserably kind of watch this because it's just like you you know how old you're feeling When you're watching these things you're like, is this really cool? It's got to be really cool because it's on here, but you just don't feel like it is so we're watching Beyonce Beyonce comes out. She's got wet hair. Yeah, so it's like all these hairdressers Rihanna Before and then whatever the last one was she came out with undone hair or was it was half done Beyonce comes out with wet hair. It's kind of for me. It's kind of a thing. I feel like Artists are kind of starting to do that. I can see like for her performance that having the wet hair was kind of However, it did raining though. Like I didn't you didn't see it Yeah, I think you're supposed to be like rainy or something. Well, she's saying drunk in love, right? Yeah That's how drunk she was. She was completely drenched in alcohol But I you know that there's hairdressers backstage I don't understand why her hair wasn't styled afterwards because right it just dried in this I Think it looks like it was like attempted to be styled, but I think it was Well, this is just down with too much stuff or something. I don't know. It was such a rush It's an award show. I think so yeah, I'm just I'm not I don't love She could use a three-layer haircut. Yeah At least two more in there. I think this is goes to show you this is like She's been transforming quite a bit this one-length cut. I think Personally, I I love a one-length cut on curly hair. I I don't know. I actually like it I wish it was styled a little differently. Maybe a little bit bigger, but I do love I just don't care for the style one length on it Okay, yay, so this was Katy Perry style and it was actually She was quoted that it was inspiration off of Elizabeth Taylor's Okay, I get that and I can see that a little bit. I think it's impressive like this This year. We're seeing so much messy hair. Yeah, and this is so structured, right? It was neat to see not one hair out of place. I hope no one comes in asking for this, right, but No, this is that's not real. Do you think that's all her hair? I know none of that is her She's probably got a bun the size of a golf ball and then this huge rope of fake hair is just tied and pinned around it Right. All right. I still think I think it's pretty. It is pretty. I agree and I've got Lord So they were saying that Lord the hair stylist She did Lord's hair wanted to try something different because she's so known for her big textured curly hair So they actually blew her out and then flat ironed her with these little waves Down at the bottom so that she still had texture. Okay And then center out in a rainstorm and then send it to the Grammys. Yeah, like I just I think her hair I have a hard time believing that a smoothing iron touched that hair I do too and I just feel like it's a very heavy like when she was performing I just felt like her hair was like taking over her face. Yeah Well, it needs to because did you see how creepy she is during that I have never seen it So I'm watching this is probably the point where I was like, I'm not cool anymore at all So I we're watching it and I'm like, she's like freaking out up there like doing these weird things and But then she wins an award and she gets up there and you're like, all right She's kind of nice like she's just young and but when she is performing She's the creepiest thing I've ever seen. Yeah, but good for her. I mean congrats. I mean she is young I said you can see I'm like this this this is cool and she's like well no one else is really doing this yet So I don't know if it's cool, but she's this year. She's making it cool. That's for sure All right, I got um, I don't know You get I got the blonde and the I got Yes that one isn't that The tough thing is I don't know celebrity names So I'm I have her picture up here and I can't sell them what it is, but that's it. Isn't that what's your name? Lucy's claim from Hunger Games. Yes All right, so she is gone from Unfortunately, the she's debuted her darker redder hair on vacation, but She didn't really do yes, it's a Papparazzi debuted it for her. Yeah with an iPhone. Thanks guys. So Blurries picture it is blurry and I apologize, but It's the best thing we have so far. So Um She went from having her honey blonde to a more Auburn Slightly darker. It's not super dark. I like it. I like that middle tone for Blondes who are going darker because it gives them The sense of feeling dark, right? Yeah, but but it's not gonna make the hairdresser want to throw themselves off a bridge When they she decides to be blonde again in yeah, exactly. Yeah All right cool cool. Yeah, I think it just got Alba Or what do we have next? What do you have I'll go there? So this is Hugh Hefner's wife. Oh wow and she went darker a Hugh Hefner wife that is not an all-over blonde Yes, so she went from her nice little platinum too. She wanted to go darker and have an ombre and she just wanted to try something fun Apparently when she went home and asked have how he liked it. He asked when it was going back to being blonde Wait, so oh, but apparently she was posting all these selfies on Instagram Loving this darker tone and honestly, I think her hair looks so much healthier her eyes pop Yeah shows off her lip job a little better. Yeah and I think Like it looks like technique-wise that they they basically just removed the top Yeah, I'll read it because it that dark goes quite a bit through. I wish it was a little more Gradation in there, but the blonde at the bottom looks a little crisper as well like in the picture on the left She's just really really highlighted in the picture on the right. They actually made that blonde at the bottom nice and solid right which I've I've had to do in the past when someone goes from Being a highlighted guest to an ombre guest. Yeah Because if you only do highlights on somebody They're lighter at the top in the the crowny area and then darker down here because this is where you put all the foils So to flip that you can't just do this because you've got that dark down at the bottom as well. So, right Okay, good job Good job. All right, what do we have? Oh, I love her. All right, so we have Emma Roberts All right, and she is one of the celebs who has following the nice little Bob chop trend And you know, I think this is great. I Think it makes her look older the blonde looks good the blonde looks good. It's great You know, it's just it's a sharp clean line. This is why more people should cut their hair shorter Right, what are we doing with this long hair? It looks so good. It makes her look taller Sleeker now she looks ready to carry the Roberts family name, right, right? Well, I think like she's been in the spotlight for quite some time since she was younger in her early teens and I just think how graceful it looks that she's tapped her hair and she's really showing off that she's Right, she looks gorgeous. She's grown up Jessica album So sorry Brian, they put it on the wrong side again. Yeah, I was gonna say which one of these is supposed to be her after So her after is the shorter bob length style Hmm, so she's gone from this longer One to actually we might have to be honest that well after picture just looks like she had her extensions taken out And that's what she's trying to grow her hair. I know and Christina Christina actually showed me on Instagram The other one her hairdressers page or whatever. She was showing it to me. So yeah, and I was looking at it And she shows After she had cut this I don't like this haircut. I don't I don't personally I like the fact that her that celebrities are chopping their her shorter, right? But this is such a she's already got stringy hair and they made it stringier. It's like they they took a dull razor and cut it Yeah, so I don't really love this one. It doesn't look clean. It looks messy I think those ends look like when you know someone who's been getting extensions for years Yeah, to try to grow their natural when you take the extensions out. It's like Yeah, well, I found it fascinating that when Because I looked I first saw it on her hair stylist Instagram Okay, she chopped it but this picture that her hairstylist posted of it. It wasn't even a good picture of It wasn't any straight-on angles. It was just little bits and pieces of the haircut, right? Hmm, and I thought that was odd that they weren't showing it off more. Yeah, well, they know what we're looking at Alright I got my moving on we've had enough Jessica Alba There we go, so we have Miley's new haircut. I love it at a tail. I think it looks awesome. It's fun. It's PC And I mean they took the same. It's the same haircut Well, I'm glad they made it up a little bit. Yeah, yeah, so I'm enjoying that She's gonna try something new because obviously it's what she does She's played this out and a lot of people have cut their hair like her So now she's got to move on to the next thing and I think it's cool that I like I like the blonde. I like the softness of she just looks Like Yeah, she looks less severe, right? I Think it's cool. I have one more picture. Did you? Yeah Demi Lovato. Oh, you can bring that up. I'll pull up. Yeah, we don't have this on a slide But if you've been anywhere on social media, you've seen it. Yeah So Brian got really excited that she's no longer blue and it's pink. Well, I for a minute there I didn't like the blue at first because she I felt like she didn't have enough roots To make it look like that was an intended look. It looked like I'm just gonna put something really dark like my roots And then when she turned that into sort of that blue ombre I was starting to feel it and now this I'm cool with I like the look of it I think it goes with This look that she's trying to achieve and the roots have gotten long enough now that it looks like I'm intentionally having dark roots and long pink hair. Yeah, so I'm I'm cool with it. I like it Actually, I'm just really curious as to what her hair feels like. Oh, I'm sure it's terrible But yeah, but at least she has somebody blowing it out all the time. So yeah, she's getting done. She's getting hit done All right, is that it? That's it.
