The visual examples of haircuts with the characteristic you were explaining is super helpful. Sometimes it’s hard to imagine things like low/high apex for example. Appreciate that !!!

Would love to hear you dig a little deeper on steps 1 -4. Like for example, if the occipital bone protrudes a lot, then this is how or where you put the weight. Or if the O-bone is flat, this is how and where you'd build the weight. Would love to get a visual for how to manage head Shapes. I think suitability is a hugely helpful topic for stylists that not many educators are diving too deeply into.

I am learning a lot from your videos, including how sometimes haircutting "rules" can be broken in a haircut and still look good. It's making me consider stepping out of my comfort zone with my own haircuts, which I think I need! I appreciate all your videos 🙏🏻

@andrewdoeshair 8 ай бұрын

Thank you! The way I see it is if you follow most of the rules you can get away with breaking one or two. Then there’s also the (very true) cliche that you need to know the rules if you want to break them- like if you want to ignore a rule but still execute to your exact intentions then the rule was probably meant to be broken. Often times when I do these sorts of haircuts that are deliberately a departure from the norm people mistake it for me not knowing any better, but if all I did was “good” haircuts I’d lose my mind 😂 there’s something fun about a figurative middle finger to what a good haircut is supposed to be, and I’m here for that.

@@andrewdoeshair I have definitely seen some haircuts with harsh lines that look WAY cooler than the fades I've seen, but maybe that's because I'm so used to seeing "good" haircuts like you said. I definitely appreciate the creativity and contrarian nature of that lol I look forward to the next video of yours!

Super valuable information. I have big forehead and high hair line and overall big head. After watching your videos i got the idea what i needed to do i was doing totally opposite. Now with your guidance i look balanced overall and don't feel the need of hair transplant.thanks a lot for providing such valuable information.

I like your way of talking about this stuff! I feel like it’s hard to find experienced hairdressers that talk in depth about what goes into choosing a haircut. I’d love to hear about what it can look like when you adjust an area of hair to balance out a certain facial feature. You could even ask people to send in photos and their answers to these different questions you’d ask, and then do an analysis on what the different principles could look like in real life.

Thank you! I’ve actually done a video like this. It’s incredibly hard to offer much value in these sorts of videos though because 1) I can’t feel the head or hair, and 2) nothing I say can be relayed to cause the person cutting the hair to become a better haircutter. At the end of the day they’re gonna do what they know how to do 🫤

Can you explain the stand/bend test in more in depth? I sometimes struggle with volume and was wondering if this can give me a clue on what to do? or if you can explain how to achieve volume? thanks and great video sir!

@andrewdoeshair 8 ай бұрын

Sorry, I can’t explain the bend test in text any better than what was shown in the video. It’s one of those tough things that makes me hate trying to be “hair guy” through a screen, because I need to actually touch the hair to know what it’ll do. For more volume, very generally speaking, a hairdryer can “set” your to stand hair up at the root (hot and then cold, think of it like ironing a shirt, you heat a shirt with tension from the iron then let it cool flat or else it won’t stay flat- heat your hair and use a brush to apply tension, then cool your hair at the roots while it stands and it’ll hold that volume), and with the right products (something grippy and rough, not heavy and hard) the hairs can sort of stick to each other a little bit and support each other up better. Individual hairs fall easily under their own weight, but a thousand hairs lightly sticking together can hold each other up. The right cutting techniques can work wonders, as well, if you texturize it right you create shorter hairs hiding inside of the longer hairs, and the shorter hairs will be more rigid than the longer hairs so they can help to support the hairstyle up even more. I hope this helps.

Hey I have a question concerning growing the hair out. I've watched your video on it about a dozen times, but I'm wondering how keeping the widest part of the head in mind works when growing the hair out.

@andrewdoeshair Ай бұрын

@@catalystcomet it depends on the end goal and where you are in the grow out process. If you’re growing it all together, like a shaggy layered haircut (think Owen Wilson, Matthew Mcconaughey, or Jeff bridges, like unkempt edges even at shorter or medium lengths), it matters a little less but if you’re sticking to more of a Johnny Depp or Leonardo DiCaprio shape where it tidier near the bottom (“graduated” as we’d call it) then it’s a little more important to make sure that longer hair on top piles up over the shorter hair on bottom at just the right place to compliment the parietal right and not look like a second parietal ridge. A layered haircut will tend to build a softer silhouette so if there is a small weight line and it winds up a little above or below the parietal ridge it doesn’t appear as intrusive to the overall silhouette.

i love these videos! next time if you could go into depth about those cases where the client says "i want my hair to look like ive put a lot of effort into it and where it can style itself" what would you do? how would you cut it? what simple things could the client do to achieve that with barely any effort?

@andrewdoeshair 8 ай бұрын

Lean into the bend test and “what the hair wants to do” (number 6). Let those details direct the design. Also there’s a direct correlation between the cutting angle and the way the hair will act (go watch my video attempting Tim Hensons hairstyle to see a decent example of this). Of the hair is cut right it styles itself. If I shake the uncut hair and see how it falls it’s a lot like looking at a piece of wood with distinct grain patterns that tell you which sort of tools and direction of cuts would be a good or bad idea with that particular piece of wood. Kind of like, I think it was Michelangelo, who said that the sculpture was already within the marble and he just needed to chip it away to reveal it. Not exactly something that can be taught through a screen, but therein lies the ultimate issue with KZbin, its almost (but not) impossible to self diagnose and self cut your way to the same results you’d get from someone who has been doing this for twenty years. I can’t give through a screen what I can do in person, and even explaining it would require a large series of videos like this one and would require that the viewer developed some fundamental skills before eventually gaining a practical working understanding- at which point they’ve basically completed cosmetology school online 😂 it’s easier to just go to cosmetology school and even easier to just pay a professional. There are fundamentals that can easily be taught through a screen (like deep point cut to cause shorter more rigid hairs to prop up longer hairs and add volume) but that’s like chapter twelve of a forty chapter book. There’s a lot of context around it that will determine where, how, and why it’s applied. Even when I do teach these sorts of things, I get comments that it only works on my models texture, which is half true, because most techniques ARE altered slightly due to density or texture. It’s just convoluted 😂 I’m sorry, I wish I could help. When I figure out how to make the video you mention it’s game over for hair KZbinrs, the world will have effortlessly good hair 😜

Random question: is it better to shampoo my hair before I get it cut or not?

@andrewdoeshair Ай бұрын

I generally prefer if a first time client comes in with their hair styled- this way I can see what they’re going for, what they know about styling, and it actually tells me a ton about what we’re working with. Usually I can mention immediately which areas they probably hate dealing with and usually it’s spot on. Then in any case, new client or not, if the hair needs to be shampooed that’s something every salon is equipped to do and most salons do it regardless of whether you’ve shampooed your hair or not. I think a lot of barber shops skip the shampoo or even charge extra to do it, I’m not sure why that worked out that way but it’s kind of a cultural thing. I know of a few barbershops who have a single shampoo bowl that doesn’t even work but they needed to install it in order to operate legally.
