" I am not a hairdresser". But you're more educated then most of them. There's nothing you can't do. Love, love, love your videos. I swear I learn so much!!!

[@carriep2370]

Atypical60 so true, most hairdressers seem to just cut and not examine the individuals hair!

[@neatcleanandsimple.1909]

Yes.... Amazing analysis...

[@DebbieGeez]

As a licensed cosmetologist, this technique is amazing! Unfortunately, most hair stylists are in a hurry, not trained with a straight razor, are taught NEVER cut on the top layer, obsessed with every hair being even, and just don't have a general understanding of the physics of the hair itself and/or head/face shape. It's why I went to school and have cut my own hair for over 30 years. I watched a guy at a hair show do this technique to curly hair, cutting each curl to lay where he wanted! Beautiful!!!

[@LindseyDara]

yes they are in a rush often

[@njc1304]

😮 I'm seriously amazed that she always has such original tips.

[@LeAmuseurPublic]

I am a licensed hair stylist and I feel like you take the time to really think about how hair reacts. Some stylists don’t experiment and break the rules they were once taught in beauty school. I think this is amazing.

[@tastedpurple1492]

I love the fact that you highlight the importance of individuality. We are all here spending time to take in great advice from you and many professionals. But we also need to take some time looking at ourselves, to decide what works for us.

[@eli-fm5zz]

“some hairdressers might say thats shit” LOL i love you!

[@annabellenolan2682]

I love your videos. I can't believe you do not have the the highest following on youtube. Your content is so much better than most 'popular' beauty gurus.

[@NikitaMaree]

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I will definitely be trying this very soon. My hair has always laid extremely flat on the top of my head and I have NEVER been happy after leaving the hairdressers. I have tried different ways of explaining what I like, I have tried letting them do what they think would suit my face shape, I have tried taking in photos of hair cuts I like on other people with similar hair to mine, I have tried cheap places, expensive places and all the places in between. Nothing has worked. A few years ago I decided that I will never pay for a haircut again. And I have been doing it myself ever since. It's not perfect, but it's better than what I have ever paid for. And I get better each time. Last month I decided to ask my husband (a mechanic) if he would give it a go for me. After showing him a couple little snipping techniques, he cut my hair for me. So far, it is my favourite haircut yet. And finally, I am comfortable wearing it out.

[@Sara-hm4hc]

So kind from your husband! :)))))

[@JennsCorner777]

Yeah you and me both not just with haircutting but with hair coloring. It's probably easier for us than them because we are the ones wearing our own hair and know it through and through and know exactly what we want. It's kinda fun to do it yourself except when you just don't feel like doing the work and clean up lol

[@NikitaMaree]

@@JennsCorner777 Haha Yes. I hate the clean up too, so I take the mirror of the wall and cut my hair in the backyard 😂

[@beckyburkart6570]

I love your video! Everytime I get a haircut and color it cost $180.00. I tell my hairdresser how I want it cut and she just does it the same way. I want to cut my hair and save the money. 🤔

[@TongnChic]

Well Done Aly! This has been a basic consultation that many stylists use to explain weight and shape. Being an artist, you have naturally understood your own bone structure in 3D. Not only did you start cutting your first section at a place where the bend in your hair adds volume, you made the length land (visibly) on the top of your cheekbone. Shaping hair to support bone structure in 3D is where many people get lost. When weight and length work with the angles of the cheekbones or jaw or clavicle, it can visually lift the bones, extend the angles and add lightness, height and strength to the overall structure. Believe me most people will not be successful in shaping their own hair in three dimensions but it is so great that you successfully educate people with terminology and concepts they can convey to their stylists. Thank you for your channel, you are a generous and worthy educator!

[@jennifers6435]

The best haircut I ever had was layered with a similar method...I can count the number of good haircuts on one hand for my 70 yrs

[@marlysmithsonian5746]

I've had my Cosmo license about 30 years and back in the 80s, before I went to school, I learned what you are talking about. Back then it was called Overdirecting. Our big boofs of hair were cut like that. Shorter near the part, graduating to longer and longer layers. I cannot get anyone to do my hair either. I've cut it myself 90 percent of my life! You learned very quickly, :)

[@jessicagomes4043]

Can you please do a video on fringes for each body type or face shape? Thank you 💙

[@dianamary6170]

[@Mary200692]

She just did! And its really helpful actually

[@TenTenJ]

So smart. You use your mind for everything, I love that!

[@ambercotrone]

I do this too! I heard it’s called beveling. I started doing this a few years ago and I love the results. I have wavy/curly hair and I’ve always had the triangle poof no matter who cut my hair. This technique was the only thing that helped get away from the triangle 🤷‍♀️

[@rubyrydinghood2600]

amberdoe The dreaded Christmas tree hair! Been there!

[@lorsange1107]

Me too 😢

[@Thelesser.bb_k]

Thank you! I’m going to try this technique, whish me luck 🙀

[@dianethompson9525]

Amber Cotrone I’m a hair stylist and beveling is usually done on the very ends of the hair and can be turned under with longer hair on top or it can be flipped up with longer hair on the bottom. The technique in this video is slide cutting to texturize the hair!

[@kavi3479]

Same here 😊

[@n.6353]

Glad you included curly hair! I’m so used to being left out of “hacks” unless it’s specifically from someone with curly hair 😊.

[@radhageorge]

I love how your tutorials and advice are based on your own experimentation & just straight logic- not a bunch of standard nonsense. I cut my own hair too and it's always interesting to try and figure out what works for me and why. Great video, great tips! Thank you

[@happytrails699]

This is right up my alley. My side swept bangs help to give me volume on top. It's necessary for me. I razor cut and texturize my own bangs.

[@AlyArt]

Coool!!!!

[@jessical8609]

I wish I could cut my own side bangs. As a teen I would cut my long bangs, not side bangs. As a teen side bangs weren't a thing (I'm showing my age...lol) but I'm scared now and won't try!! I wish I could bc it's $10 just for a 2 minute cut of my "bangs"

[@happytrails699]

Jessica, you can cut your bangs. It is so easy, and youtube really is one of the best teachers. Just watch several youtube videos on people cutting bangs the way you would like yours to fall. Go slow. Cut just small segments of hair at a time. I promise you, you will get the hang of it.

[@jessical8609]

@@happytrails699 Thank you!! I need side bangs to add some kind of volume to the front of my hair and I've always liked the way I look with them. I will go through you tube vids and try. I can always get them fixed if I mess up, as long as I don't cut to short (which I know I won't). Thanks for commenting back. Much appreciated 👍 💇💞

[@happytrails699]

Jessica, not sure if you wear your bangs like me but this is how I cut my own bangs. I made the video a few years ago. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKLChq2rfrN4oq8

[@mstoraaljuhani3077]

For curly hair there is a simple move that while I’m washing my hair I but my head down and the same when I drying it , you will watch the volume raise it above for2 m and if u dry it by a T-shirt that’s better the curls become perfect not so messy 🤷🏻‍♀️💘 I’m watching u from Saudi Arabia 🙏🏼

Going to try this on my hair. Exactly what I needed to know!!! Have been to 3 different salons and the layers were NOT correct. So now I can do it myself.

[@ishitaojha3217]

I know you said you're not a hairdresser, but I think you understand hair shape/styling/cutting more than a lot of the hairdressers I've been to! I have thick, very wavy (almost curly) hair, and every hairdresser I go to gets so confused regarding how to cut it to make it look good...Your bit at the end about curly hair being flat on top hits home so hard that I'd rather have YOU cut my hair Haha ;)

[@polarbarr21]

I have thick curly long hair and I dry my hair with a diffuser. It gives me as much volume as I need on top.

[@MsJerrySparkle]

right! every hairstylist i've gone to in the last few years would cut my hair in a perfectly circular bowl which would make me look like a let me talk to your manager lady 🤦🏻‍♀️ mom cuts my hair better than any of them and she's in finance.....

[@america1403]

When you got to the long thick curly hair, you were 100% correct about how it always ends up with volume on the side but still flat on top... I have been dealing with that for 40 yrs... I have hair exactly how you drew it and it always ALWAYS looks just like the 2nd sketch after a haircut....I always tell my hair stylist how i want it to look in the 3rd sketch, but it NEVER happens... now i can tell them what to do! Thank You!

[@mwritesabout]

Aly, I'm a stylist, and I don't think it's a shitty idea at all! I use thinning shears to get the same effect. They remove some of the bulk without losing all of the length, and they're great for blending shorter and longer pieces!

[@kasey77]

[@littlefrog9553]

For years I've had bad haircuts, since I had to leave my birth country for school and work, and so leaving my amazing hairdresser behind. 😥 I have unusual hair texture because I am mixed and live in Scandinavia, they never know what to do with me, and cut my hair the way you would cut straight and/or thin hair. Finding this tutorial is such a relief. I had my last haircut before quarantine, and it is bad. Now that it's growing out a little, I can start to correct. I will use this technique, thank you!

[@jen7715]

[@Just_Kirsty]

julia findlay I think unfortunately many people don't want to think about things. They just want to recreate and doublicate. At least from what I see everywhere around me. It's really sad imho because that takes away the creative process of finding perfect solutions for ourselves. Some might say they got no time for that. Others probably don't see a difference. Everytime I come here and read through the comments, I feel like here are so many people who appreciate their individuality and that makes me happy :)

[@strawberryseeding]

Julia Kirsty yes! Couldn't put it better myself. We should Always embrace our individual style. X

[@poojavarada]

Been searching for this my whole life. My hair is extremely voluminous but i have a small head area and my scalp gets greasy very fast. Thank you for the unique haircut advice. Gonna try it soon.

[@colleeninprayer1498]

Fantastic tip. I have always wanted more volume on top.

[@brownielou82]

True. Back home my hairdresser understood perfectly that problem. He used to give me a layered haircut which allowed me to achieve the best volume on the crown. He used tu cut the layers starting from very close to the scalp moving outwards. Approximately he cut 7-11 layers being some of them really really short . The result was awesome. Here in Europe when I've explained this to several hairdressers they refuse to do it . I think they do not know how or just they're afraid.:( the only way for them to get the volume you're looking for it is with a blow dry which I hate! Thank your for the advice I definitely will try it!

[@syloosh]

You are a genius 🙇🏻‍♀️

[@ellyb2010]

Just found your channel a few days ago and I love it ! You have a very special way to look at different things and you can explain your conclusions very good. I have very fine hair and a I´ve found a different way to more volume: I stopped using shampoo, I use indian herbs instead (Amla but only for dark hair ! Blondes can use rye flour instead) My scalp loves the absence of chemical substances and started to grow more and the hair itself has now a better substance, it´s not so weak anymore.

[@dina_ganzheitlich_gesund83]

Thank you for sharing this trick with us. I'll try it, because I have so little volume.

[@franci-uz]

Wow, this wavy short hair look just so amazing on you! I love how you explaining things and your balanced attitude

[@emilied8766]

I often cut my own hair and use a razor blade (the men's blades you get in packets to put into razors). You have to be very careful holding it, but it's very sharp and flexible and they are cheap so you can change to a new blade when you feel it getting too blunt to slice through the hair nicely.

[@melacore87]

So, I cut my hair with this method and I am very pleased. Finaly I have some volume whitout having to thin out the lenght. Thank you for the video!

Do you think creating more hair volume on top of the head will help balance a jaw that is too big and too long?

[@PolarBear-rc4ks]

I'm not aly but I think it might? And possibly some big pieces surrounding the face. Think of it this way: if someone had a very pointy face, and sharp features. Would it stand out more with a sleek/flat cut, or a voluminous cut? The voluminous cut around the face and at the back will make the head more in "sync" with itself, whereas the sleek cut will look separate and the pointy face will stand out! (Balance is key)

[@nandinid290]

Aly, love your videos, they're always so helpful and based on really solid, nuanced visual principles/perception. One thing I never see in ANY video by anyone (and believe me I've searched a lot!) is talking about hairdos (not hairstyles/haircuts, and not for 'face shapes' which is just straight-on) in profile/3D - like working with convex/concave profiles, the different shapes/flatness of the back of the head/skull, and why buns look so terrible on some of us in profile, no matter if we wear it low/high/midway !
