DIY Layered Haircut- Beard and Unicorn Haircut

As a mom of many, I am always looking for ways to pinch pennies. I have six daughters and hair cuts are expensive. I am so glad I tried this DIY Beard Haircut, followed by a Triple Unicorn Haircut...it will be my go to now!

[@morganmclaughlin9863]

Turned out really good 😁 and free

[@Herbal_Mama87]

Laughed so hard, “I seriously look like a guy with my hair like this” 😂 I’ve only ever cut my own hair I use the unicorn all the time. Good tips 👍

Absolutely beautiful! 💐

I've been watching tutorials called the butterfly method for several days. You just gave me the courage to go for it! I need a haircut badly. You did a great job!♥️🇨🇦

[@GentlyLedSisters]

I almost did the butterfly but my friend warned me to stay away from that one. So I did the two she recommended. And I am so glad I did!

[@amandazplace5663]

@@GentlyLedSisters yes. The butterfly method looks like it's to go shorter and it looks harder. I'm doing what you did. Beard and unicorn it is.

[@athomemamma]

Looks fantastic. I will line my girls up today 😊✂️✂️✂️. Thank you so much for sharing this. I have watched videos but never from someone I know. Thank you.

[@GentlyLedSisters]

I also did Lana's after mine and it turned out wonderfully too. I am so happy. I felt sick spending so much on haircuts all the time!

[@athomemamma]

@@GentlyLedSisters yes!! Your daughter’s hair look fabulous also. For my 6 girls the cost is $300. This saves time and money. The older girls are saying I have to start with the 10 year old and then they will make their final decision. 😁

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Smart. That's why I did Allie first. I was like, welp, worse case, I take her to the salon to fix my mistakes. 😆😆😆 And that's an insane amount of money!

[@aliciacampbell2890]

Looks great. I sooo needed this. I've got pretty straight hair and just tried this as well and I'm really happy with the result. Thanks for sharing.

[@raquelklinger1368]

This is such a blessing! I have been putting off going to the salon for a hair cut. Because it can get expensive, I used to cut my hair in a different way. This one is so much easier and has easy-to-follow steps! I am so doing this tomorrow! Thank you so much for doing this video! truly blessed me! And your hair and your pretty daughter's hair absolutely looks fabulous! Thanks so much again.❤️

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Awww you can do it!!!

[@miriam5755]

😂"do i want to do this?" this is so me. Thanks for trying it on your hair. Turned out great! ☺️

[@GentlyLedSisters]

I was second guessing myself a bit there haha

[@barefootgardens22]

I've been cutting my own hair my whole adult life except a few times and never was happy with the salons! Your hair is so thick and pretty!

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Thanks! I am shocked at how much I love it. 😆

[@suetube13]

Looks great 👍

[@annloui8814]

I'm going to have to do this to MY hair! Thanks! This is the same type of joy that I had when I found the CHI Spin and Curl to curl my hair. My hair NEVER kept curl well until using that and it is SO quick! Love it when our crown of glory looks and feels amazing! 💟

[@jessicaa562]

You’re so brave and cute! It looks great! 😍

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Thank you!! 😊

[@melissawill2752]

❤❤ looks fabulous

[@phoebeo780]

It looks really good. I have been cutting my hair for years. I have screwed up a few times lol, but it's so much cheaper. By the way, I can't believe how your daughter has grown. She's beautiful!

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Thank you! She is almost 13!

[@lferris5045]

Thank you for your bravery!! I laughed out loud!! Thank you for posting!! I am pinching pennies as well and heard about the hair cut and was Your hair turned out beautifully!!! 😊Thanks again ❤

[@lferris5045]

I was *scared* lol

[@GentlyLedSisters]

@@lferris5045 I still cut it myself, I haven’t messed it up yet, lol

[@ashlieleavelle]

I am going to have to try this!

[@CarnivorePets]

Looks good!!! I may do the beard in the back because I like the sides a little longer..or I could split the beard into sections… Then the husband has to check the back though. I went to beauty school and cut my families hair, but someone needs to cut mine or I do it.❤

[@kjvdisciples4447]

Wow! You are so brave! This was definitely an Anne moment! Thanks for trying this out for us. Turned out great!

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Awww thanks!

[@MrsS520]

This inspired me to try! My hair is so long right now, down to my hips almost, and it’s driving me nuts! But I haven’t wanted to spend the money!

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Same. I didn't want to spend the money or time to go, lol

[@amandazplace5663]

Okay, I did it, and it turned out GREAT! Now, I just have to wait 2 days for my daughter to come back from Europe with my curling iron so I can curl it!😆♥️🇨🇦

[@GentlyLedSisters]

That's awesome!!! I am so glad! ❤️

[@PraiseGod1611]

Awesome , if you look up videos on eyebrows like how to to draw them a bit straight instead of to curved , I guess that will bring your eyes really out and would look awesome.

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Lol. Eyebrows are my nemesis. I barely have any to work with. 😆

[@PraiseGod1611]

@@GentlyLedSisters 😂 I have the same problem but I bought a good eyebrow pencil and draw the rest on 🤣 . Makes a lot of difference to my eyes the whole shape of my forehead 😉😀

[@GentlyLedSisters]

I have tried that as well. I have tried everything. Lol. Still trying to find a method that works for me..😊 thanks for the tips!

[@CassieRaeMcMurtry]

Oh, side note! I just ordered rosemary oil to see if it will help my eyebrows grow. I use that after postpartum hair loss and it works, so why not try it on my eyebrows? I'll keep you updated!

[@JJ-no1youno]

Your video made me lol. I cut my own hair a couple of months ago, I tried the DIY butterfly haircut & it actually wasn’t too bad. Where I messed up, was when I tried to cut curtain bangs. Long story short, my attempted butterfly haircut w/ curtain bangs ended up looking like the werewolf haircut 🤦‍♀️

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Oh, no! That was my fear, lol! I just did my hair again a few weeks ago, following my own video, lol, and thankfully it turned out well again

[@zoehannah6278]

😂

[@MrsTurner]

Turning the video up and down to see if it’s your kids yelling or mine, it was mine lol! I’m curious how it looks natural with this cut, can you take pictures next time you do it natural?

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Naturally curly? I am sure it would be great! But yes I will! I don't do it naturally curly very often anymore.

[@MrsTurner]

@@GentlyLedSisters yes naturally curly, I almost did this last week but my hair texture held me back. If I’m styling my hair it’s just product with my natural waves so that would give me a better idea of how the shape would look!

[@GentlyLedSisters]

I will try to do it next week sometime!

[@MrsTurner]

@@GentlyLedSisters thank you!

[@eflo4115]

I'M GONNA DO IT! All caps because I am freaking out😬😅

[@GentlyLedSisters]

I still love mine. Let me know how it turns out!!!

[@kjvdisciples4447]

Wonder what I can do about all the short lengths where my hair is growing back out after losing so much hair? Any ideas? It is a frizzy mess right now and headbands are my only help.

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Ooooh I don't know, maybe do more layers??? Or go to a professional. 😆😆😆

[@niffer62]

You normally wear a side part? Do you change the method at all because of that? I see this one you went ahead and parted initially in the middle, despite your usual side part. Thanks!

[@GentlyLedSisters]

I do normally wear a side part, and no, I didn't change the method. I need to do this again, I need a haircut, lol!

[@christyflaig6220]

I would feel more comfortable running with scissors than cutting my hair with scissors. You are more brave than I! 😄

[@GentlyLedSisters]

This used to be my mindset. Until I got crazy. lol

[@SusieQ-uw7jv]

You need to lower the camera - can't see what you are doing! Its not very helpful if you do not show exactly what you are doing! You also need to tell us how much you are cutting.

[@GentlyLedSisters]

Sorry sorry! I am not very professional. 😂
