Bald barbers are actually the best barbers for real

Bald men are sexier aswell

Just like single people give the best relationship advice

They have sacrificed for wisdom on knowledge of hair

[@kylerwood6880]

He’s not bald it’s a wig

[@aliwtw]

Because they know the worth hair

[@jessicakohler4246]

I started growing out my pixie in 2005 and had to suffer through a good year of pretty terrible style. It killed me to pay for a haircut I knew I was going to hate so I started trimming it on own. Your videos got me through it. Thank you!!! I've been cutting my own hair ever since and always search your videos for inspiration and technique. Don't know why I didn't subscribe years ago.

[@rahul7megh]

It's always better to get your hair cut by yourself than getting it spoiled by a barber and wasting your money as well.

[@5uNgHo0nIe]

@@rahul7megh fr- I'd rather fuck up my hair myself and have the exact same result that the hair salon person is gonna do than have them fuck up my hair because they I'll probably associate them with that mistake but if it's me I get over it quick because I'm not expecting good results

[@mooncrumble9036]

"or it's gonna look like a mullet" Me, who cut my own hair for the first time and gave myself a mini-mullet a week ago: *noted.*

Moon Boi mullets are actually super in right now lol I wouldn’t be mad at that

[@mooncrumble9036]

@@JoannaT2 True, also I'm not really mad at it because I've been combing the back hair with my hand whenever I'm stress or on the verge of an anxiety attack so it's actually kinda useful for me :)

I did this as well by accident lmao it grew out pretty fast though

[@johnkasek2892]

I got brave today and followed your instructions. First time I ever tried cutting my own hair. It’s not perfect due to my lack of hair cutting experience, but I think it looks pretty good. Thanks for putting this out here for us shut-ins.

[@autredawkins8532]

I so enjoyed your technique as a cosmetologist myself .I am amazed at your ability to easily blend older and newer hair cutting terms and communicate openly about how to proceed into styling.Brilliant you have probably forgotten more about hair then most will ever learn!

[@darlaworden2670]

3 years since you posted this video and it is still helping! Not sure if the cut was uneven or my hair grows unevenly, but one side was nicely layered while the other was mostly one length. I watched your vid and within a minute things are now beautifully layered and balanced. Thanks so much!!!

[@Alexandroidd]

Can you put a wig on and do this to yourself, for science?

[@TheSalonGuy]

Sure

[@starriderkittykat9064]

@Jessie O. Lee well...untill I see him do this..lol

[@lorimiller4301]

That would be an excellent example for us do it yourselfers.

[@annymus4502]

​@@TheSalonGuy Did you ever make the video? :)

[@spongebob_studies]

did he ever did it? i wanna know

[@karens2303]

Thanks for this video, it helped me better understand the problem working on the back of my head. I've been self cutting since age 18 because my fragrance allergy prohibits me entering any salon. Many times I've cut too short or uneven, very challenging to self cut. Thank you again for your tips! Very helpful!

im about to do this on myself, its either gonna look swag as hell, or im shaving my head

I'm a 58 year old female. I watched your tutorial and did it myself. It looks better than most hair cuts that I've paid for. Thank you Sir. ❤

[@TheSalonGuy]

Wonderful!

[@reinaldoramos8700]

You are great. You explain thinks so simple. Love it. My hair was long and I did not dare to go to a salon because of the pandemia COVID 19.I follow your simple clear instructions and it came out perfect. I cut it shot with layers.thanks so much.for me it was awsome I am 71 years old.again thanks.truly yours,mrs iris

[@yeoldegrayCat]

Your vids helped my sister cut my hair for me, and it turned out pretty well! I'll probably be visiting your channel again when I have to cut hers. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!

[@TheSalonGuy]

Awesome

[@louiseshin8556]

Great video and I have enjoyed learning how to layer my fine hair so it looks fuller. Have been cutting my own hair since the pandemic and your videos have been so helpful! Gets a little difficult doing the back by myself. I also have been cutting and layering my husband's hair for the past year. Thanks for doing these awesome videos!

[@widow45]

Great 👌 thanks. I'm about to butcher my daughter's hair. Thanks for the courage ❤️ I'm gonna check out your channel. Best tutorial I have found on KZbin.

[@maggieframpton5435]

thank you, I'm in the UK November lockdown - I followed exactly what you did and my hair looks fabulous - I'm older, I like that slightly older look.

[@Squirrelfriends22]

My hair is shoulder length,but very helpful for short hair.very Nice of you trying to help people out .

[@erikaerhardt8136]

Tried cutting my husband’s beautiful thick hair. I messed up now he’s bald. You make it look so easy. Don’t worry he’s not mad at me 😂

[@BEMLvlog]

I’m a 13 ftm and I used your tips and it’s kinda choppy but I think it looks fine, this and other videos of yours really helped me out! Tysm! 🎉

[@BEMLvlog]

But it’s basically just a mini mullet

[@klz001]

I have not been able to get out because of COVID and had to have a haircut! Having watch LOTS of your videos and this one in particular gave me confidence. I did an angle in the front (from some of your other videos), top like you show here and had my husband trim the back. It looks great! Thank you so much!!!

[@andreaandrews6713]

OMG! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Baby, you earned another feather towards your full set of angel wings in heaven by posting this video! Thank you!

[@debbielarion8821]

Thank you so much for this video! ❤️. My hair has been screwed up for about a year! I have been to several stylists that do not know how to blend my layers! I found you while I was scrolling on utube, and I couldn’t be happier! I really do wish that I could have my haircut by you, but I can only wish! Thank you so much for taking the time to show how it’s supposed to be done!!

[@johncareatti7835]

I watched one of your videos before I cut my grandma's hair and she liked it so much she wants me to cut it again today. It gives me a lot of anxiety to cut her hair because my aunt did it around Christmas time and basically cut it all off. It looked really bad and I don't want it to look bad when I do it. So now I have your video saved and I will watch it every time she asked me to cut her hair. Thank you so much!

[@TheRedSatan10]

I love you man.This was during the pandemic and you were trying to help people around the globe. I believe my hair long gone around this time coz I just bought a friggin trimmer

[@The-X-Target]

Thanks to you i have around Two years trimming my own hair, i have (Damon Salvatore haircut) ,takes me around two hours but is nice.

[@vilmamontano9977]

Thank you for your videos I got my first autonomous hair cut after watching your videos. Thank you.....It actually looked great.....I'm in the health care, and know nothing about hair....Thanks again....What state are you in? People can not cut hair....You Rock!!!!!

[@carlmelogulay6877]

i have a messy middle part hairstyle, i noticed the curtains on the front isn't like flowy or uneven. I saw some tips on how to have a middle part and they said "layering" i searched up on how to layer your hair then i saw your video, i combed and compared my hair on the front and IT HAD LIKE A 2-3 INCH DIFFERENCE. I followed your steps and holy did it become so good. I will never go to super cuts anymore. Thanks!💘

[@almd_mlk]

I gave up on barbers a long time ago because they always mess up for me personally. So I just cut my hair by myself now, and this video really helped

[@Ivy_1057]

Thank you! This is very helpful! I cut a length of all hair to a certain form like straight bob by the middle of my neck. Then I made a lot of tiny “ponytails” on my head and then tried to follow your directions and cut them by measuring to a certain length. It is not 100% perfect, but good enough to give me “sphere” shape and layers. Your explanation helped me to understand what I need to do. I will ask my husband to check and trim my hair in a back because it was harder to reach while looking in the mirror 😆. Thank you for making this DIY tutorial! I give you 👍 and subscribe to your videos. Best wishes!

[@cbviau1332]

Stephen ... I enjoy your videos so much. You are a wonderful teacher. You explain things so well and are easy to follow. Thank you for sharing your skills with us.

[@JuletJulet]

I enjoy watching you cut hair. You make it look so easy. I just cut my own hair shorter but I want layered bangs so I'm going to try it! Wish me luck 😊

[@Darren-D.C-Cross]

Thankyou! Easy to understand! I had a crack and saved $120 down here in Sydney Australia! I appreciate it.

[@CableGhost]

Awesome tutorial! So easy looking! Other videos look so difficult for people with no skills like me, but you made it so easy looking, definitely gonna try this!!!

[@rachelhatton9344]

I did a cut on my hair and it actually looks ok but your video is brilliant. Given me more idea how to break the sides up as it looks a bit clumpy. Thank you.

[@vasilyokless]

could you at some point give a demo of the haircut that is on the model you use @8:38? - I really loved that combination of lengths on the front/sides/back!! Thank you!

Can you please demonstrate preciselly how to transition from the back of the head to top of the head without leaving steps. Cutting around crow till the top. Thanks

"It's not how much is cut, it's how much is left on the head." My boyfriend will thank you for these words of wisdom, sir, when he inevitably asks me for a home haircut soon. His hair looks like mannequin 2 right now. ☺️ It's very thick and he'll want some weight off.
