[@kristinerubi7055]

You did a really good job! I'm a pro stylist and you actually used a lot of basic techniques used in layering, you don't have to go to school to give a good haircut, it's really basic geometry! Angles are what will give you that layered effect! One hot tip though, get a cutting comb, it'll really help you line up the guides on where to cut, and it'll smooth out the little knots that your brush won't take care of! Also on the front layers don't cut the scissor straight across, try a point cutting technique-it's super easy and it'll make it look more natural than just a harsh line....think of it as blending makeup lol. Love you carli!!

[@SweetEmelynes]

I've been cutting layers in my hair since you uploaded your first video about this!! It saves me so much money and I always get compliments! Thanks Carli:)

[@CarliBel55]

SweetEmelyne's YAY :) SO happy to hear my love

[@yckieh568]

My sister and I do too! Hahaha. We followed your old video years ago and that's how we cut our hair since.

[@gemscence]

Me too! Since the first video she put up! I haven't gone to the hair dressers in ages! I don't ever feel like I need to even when I move home :) Thanks Carli!

[@elenixatzidou93]

What kind of scissors do you use?

[@raulshah1421]

nice1

[@danteotero5106]

My mom has been a hair dresser for 30 years...SHE wouldn't dare cut her own hair. YOU are amazing Carli! I have got her watching your videos now. We were doing braids the other day with you-- and NOW you have given her more ideas. Girl, you have a natural talent for fashion, make up and hair. I am a fan!

[@sophdoeslife]

your hair is actually perfection I swear I could see my reflection in it

[@rinmedina9292]

I love ur energy 😌✨

[@ASMRWorldTikTok]

😂😂👏🏻

[@boredweegie553]

Wow ..the way you worded that..I had an 80s vibe love song in my head..😁👌👌👌 Works better if you leave out the "in it" at the end..❤️

[@RachelleAshmanWells]

All I can is, even if she isn't technical in the way she does it, if it looks this awesome and SHE is happy, then who cares? Awesome for her!

[@1216pam]

I agree

[@cowsmooo2723]

I completely agree with your comment!! :)

[@sarasaranora5271]

*Just got the Argan Rain product and i love it! Makes my hair feel soft and looks great! Recommend to all!*

[@swkas1098]

Sara Sara Nora can i knouw were you had it from andere wants the of it

[@KiwiNoelle]

I've been cutting my hair with your 'method' since your first tutorial and I've loved it every time. I haven't gone to a professional in years (this started because every time I had gone they f'd up my hair royally) and I get compliments *all* the time. I agree that if it's your first time you should *go slow* and just cut a little bit at a time. You can always go back and take off more but you can't add more lol once you get the hang of it, it's a super quick and easy thing to do to maintain it every so often. Thank you, I love your videos!

[@KiwiNoelle]

Jeon Shine omg...lmfao careful we might get put up to the firing squad for even mentioning we're in the same fandom around here.

[@KarennElisee]

I went to cosmetology school, and I still can't trust a hair stylist cutting my hair! I do it myself as well. You are really making me want a keratin treatment though. Your hair looks so silky smooth!

[@AshleyrCoello]

Do it it's AMAZING

[@lucycastro2261]

If the right way to cut our hair is the one that all of the hairdresses do (the ones that I've met), then I prefer having my hair cut by this girl because her result once is better than all the times I've had my hair cut by "professionals" Thank you good evening.

[@colleenkingsley3700]

This video was exactly what I needed! I'm a stay at home mom with two kiddos pre-school age with no childcare relief. They are ALWAYS with me! My partner is only home one week at a time every seven weeks. It has been two years since my last haircut. It was down to my belly button! I watched this video about 5 times before I got up the nerve to do it, but I figured anything was better than where I was. I don't think I did everything perfect, but my natural curl came back and it looks so great! I'm not just a tired mom, I can look sexy again!! Thank you so so much!! ❤️

[@vickyingals983]

I cut my hair today following you and I love it!!!!!! No more money in hair salons ! Thank you so much!😄

[@zenaiko33]

I use your original hair cutting video the first time I ever cut my own hair into layers, and it turned out beautifully. Now, it's all I ever use. I love your technique and it's the only way I ever have my hair cut the way I want! xx

[@natalieallan2758]

I tried this at home this evening, following your instructions to the word, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way my hair is. It is THE BEST haircut I've ever had, and I had the same problem where my hair was cut too short or ruined at salons, and couldn't grow past my shoulders. I'll never go to the salon again after this. Thanks SO MUCH for this great tutorial! And your hair looks amazing by the way. I hope I can now grow my hair that long and healthy too!

[@AprilSixsmith]

OMG you literally posted this at the perfect time. I'm competing at Miss World America this weekend and I always cut my own hair but I've been dying to watch how you do your layers. I'm about to hop in the shower and do it right now and it's just so ironic that you posted this lol!

[@AshleyrCoello]

Good luck with your competition :)

[@AprilSixsmith]

Thank you so much!

[@Doni.anxhela]

April Maroshick wish you good luck from albania xoxo

[@Kat3Lov382]

You are so pretty :-) All the best in the competition.

[@katoucha007]

Hey new subbie, You are gorgeous ♡ Good luck

[@RitaFaustino16]

Yous are haterssss. She looks great. She cut what works for her. She said a million times "this may not work for everyone." and all of you are like I WOULD NEVER. Cool. Don't. Carli is not saying this is the only way to cut your hair. She's saying this is what works FOR HER. And since she likes it, she figured MAYBE some of you would like it too. And all you "professionals" go back to Great Clips, and shut up. No one wants to hear how you "cringed" watching the videos. Her hair looks better than mine, and I get it done professionally.

[@dianahuchim7084]

Rita Faustino Im going to cosmo school and honestly I think she did an awesome job, i've cut my hair myself and I actually think I wanna try this. She used techniques that we learn in school and I think its awesome that she can do it on her self.

[@amaraedwards9397]

+Rita Faustino I agree

[@autumnishappy]

I'm a cosmetologist- and I picked up a few good ideas from this! there are a ton of ways to get to the same end. i think its great! you go girl . love love love you!

[@luckycarms]

I will never cut my own hair because I can barely cut a straight line on paper but I love Carli so I watch anyways!!!

[@AshleyrCoello]

Lmao this is me ! I I can swear everything is straight and perfect and it's really not! Me and wall frames are not friends lol

[@Doni.anxhela]

Carmen H same as u with the line hahahaahhaha

[@luckycarms]

Yes ladies! It's okay though I bet we can do our makeup pretty well though especially since we do not need scissors!

[@saswathynikhil2733]

Even me. But Carli Bybel did a great job👍

[@aliciaaltom6652]

Same 🤣😭

[@TheYenyC]

I tried your technique like 4 months ago and really loved how it came out! I was worried I'd mess it up because my hair is really thin and kinda wavy, but the layers gave my hair a little more volume and when it curls it looks fantastic, so thank you so much! I'm about to cut it again 'cause it's a little damaged at the tips, thanks again! 😊

[@heatherann10880]

A hairdresser I used 15 years ago (when i had very long hair like this) taught me to flip my head over, cut it straight off, and when you flip back over it's perfectly layered. He called it the 5 minute haircut:) I then taper the front a little and done. This has worked great for me and the bonus is that it's easy to maintain and cut the same exact layers each time.

[@pamelar.3074]

Lmaooo there are about 900 "hair stylists" in the comments right now lmao all giving "advice" 😂😂 clearly this is how SHE likes it since SHE has been doing this for yearrrrrs!

[@paulinaochoa2226]

How she does*

[@paulinaochoa2226]

Not how we supposed to do ^^

[@nickidx4371]

Ikr! I don't understand how people were cringing? What's there to cringe about? Those who like to go to a professional, go right ahead but this is how she likes to do it, it's her hair, her choice, get over it

[@pamelar.3074]

She's showing how SHE cuts HER hair. Clearly says it on the title and she also reassures everyone that this is just HER method of doing it.

[@FromeMone]

lmaoooo she deleted her comment because she found out she was wrong

[@gabriellakovacs8350]

same.. I strongly dislike hairdressers.. left crying a couple of times.. apparently "just a trim" means chopping my hair from almost hip-length to just below the shoulders? never again. That little chop is years and years of insecuity and trying to grow back my hair...

[@rutujaskhanvilkar6692]

I totally relate to that. The same used to happen with me, since then I stopped trimming my hair at a salon... And then hair started to be frizzy and dry at the end... But just yesterday I tried cutting by my self, and it's so so pretty... Now forget salon forever... 🤗😊

[@gabrielavilla7308]

It's such a violation. A hairdresser did that to me too once. That was 6 years ago and I've been cutting my own hair ever since

[@HannaAndMaddyRawr]

Gabriella Kovács i mean... not all hairstylists* are like that. I’ve never got any complaints ever that I have cut it too short. Some hairstylists are just scissor happy.

[@lulubelle24]

Same. I had really long hair and wanted a trim and some extra long layers adding. I ended up with a Bob cut that ended at my ears. 😭 I do my own hair now.

[@blainevanity6]

Gabriella Kovács YES. I wanted a 1 inch trim and the hairdresser cut 4-5 inches. I never went back.

[@kakahindo5981]

I don't know abt hair cutting techniques BUT guys I tried it and I'm more than happy abt the result!!!! Thank you so much! this is the best haircut I ever !!! got tons of compliments. THANK YOU SO MUCH CARLY

[@DramaticMac]

You make it look so effortless! If I did this it would look like a hack job!! You are such a stunner honestly get so excited when you upload xoxo

[@JaimiLG]

LOL this is why people don't go to salons anymore. Hairdressers always feel like their way is better, even tho it's not THEIR hair! ugh! shoo shoo

[@ohheyitsanna]

I'm a hair dresser and I don't think my way is better, yes she's not professional but she likes it

[@christinamarshall681]

I agree somewhat. I went to a professional hairdresser, who was actually really terrific, even though she spoke little English, and communication was a bare minimum. But she saw what she wanted in my hair (it's as long as this girls hair), and even though I said something else, she still cut it her way. Of course it still looked great, because when you cut long hair, I think like someone else said, you can cover it well. But I'm not sure I ever got the cut that I wanted, from her. That said, I've never had the nerve to go this far in cutting my own hair. But my mother who has long hair too, cuts hers and it always looks great. I really don't think anyone would notice what this girl has done, unless she went to a professional. Then, they would be like what? lol

[@ajreyes6679]

I agree. I stopped going to the salon years ago because I have very long hair (Exact same as Hers) and every time I ask them to cut only 1inch and to add layers, they always cut about 2-3 inches and do not Layer my hair the way I asked them to so this is why I've always cut my own layers

[@tbyoungtm]

+AJ Reyes OMG I know right! I've been doing my own hair for years and years

[@siennacochran7593]

+Lia Vaultboy go away . know one cares about your job .

[@ailda4055]

I have done the Park ave $500 hair cuts and the $30 haircuts....and I cut my own hair once since i was so sick and tired of getting lousy hair cuts....and i LOVED it!!! and people loved it. No hairdresser knows how your hair drapes better than you do!!!

[@missmentalavenged]

I've read a lot of these comments because I was curious about what others had to say. Everyone is saying that they go to professionals and they mess up their hair. One word of advice, know what to ask for when you go in to get a cut. Your version of what you want may be different than what the stylist may be used to but it doesn't mean we don't know how to cut hair. We use different terms sometimes. we spend a lot of money and time to do what we do. It doesn't come over night, it's a learning experience over time. I'm not saying that her haircut was awful because it wasn't but please understand that as professionals we see things others may not see that could be done. And i was not trying to sound hateful in any way so please don't bash me. Lol

[@missmentalavenged]

True, but everyone makes mistakes and you have to learn from them. Just some stylists think they're perfect and can do no wrong. Lol. 

[@mumblesandwool1243]

Thank you! Most "bad haircuts" come from miscommunication. Either the client doesnt know how.to explain it, doesnt know what they want or the stylist doesnt completely understand. Its not that we dont know what were doing. I will never cut someones hair until I fully understand what they want and make sure the client also understands what theyve asked for. I dont play around with peoples hair and I dont play they "you fucked my hair up" game. If im not comfortable with what someone asks lr dont think I can properly execute it, I send them to someone who can. Ive had tons of repeat clients and client referals just by making sure there is complete clear communication.

[@missmentalavenged]

Exactly! And I feel like everyone should be this way. It saves so much headache in the long run.

[@L_Bocua]

missmentalavenged I feel it should be the other way around. It's up to the professional to make absolutely sure you understand what the client wants. Yes, I can bring in pictures, but the stylist can also grab some pictures to double check. Yes, I may use the wrong terms for a certain haircut, but the stylists should know what may cause confusion. Like what do you consider a long bob, do you mean this, or this, etc. Also, stylists sometimes pretend they know my hair. They'll for example think it's a lot more straight than it actually is, and even when I warn them, they sometimes sort of ignore that. But I'm very assertive at the hair salon and I make sure I pay attention to every move they make. As soon as I think I don't like it, I stop them immediately. But not everyone is that assertive.

[@PamMcElprang]

missmentalavenged I've literally told a hair stylist not to take off more than 3 inches - and I don't have split ends, there was no reason to do so. She laughed at me, but said she'd do as I asked and turned my chair. Next thing I know, she's cut off more than seven inches! You go to a stylist expecting them to listen to you, and they turn it into a big deal saying that no woman should have hair past her bra line. Professionals always think they need to create a 'style,' so much so that they don't listen to explicit directions. I'll never go back to a professional.

[@abbybee9397]

Hey, who cares if she is doing it "wrong"? She looks GREAT and she is happy with how her hair looks. Her hair looks really healthy and nice, so what if she is not using the same techniques that most hairdressers use? It's better than her going to a professional and getting a haircut that she isn't happy with.

[@sofiacaju6692]

You're right!

[@suerobb6597]

Abby Bee LOL, Well, if that's wrong, I don't wanna be right!

[@gracesci4779]

Abby Bee well if she's teaching people how to do it in a way that would look great on her but odd on someone else that's not good. She cuts her hair in a way that will make it longer in the front and shorter in the back.

[@keniacervantes8492]

To get the same effect and blend your layers a bit more point cut and that will give you really pretty blended and full hair - advice from a hairstylist

[@emiliejohnson2680]

Am i the only one that thinks that the sounds and watching hair being cut off is satisfying? Lol i know it's weird

[@michellebrito4680]

there is actually a name for that satisfying feeling of sounds. it is called asmr you should check out some asmr videos on KZbin. :) asmr

[@ankitakaye7454]

Only if it's someone else's hair... ;)

[@ASMRWorldTikTok]

It gives me anxiety, if the hair’s mine of course

[@nikitamitna6766]

I actually tried your method.. & yes the outcome is just perfect.. my friends think.. its a professional cut.. 💋

[@Ammeta]

I wish she would do a hair tutorial on her hair in the end

[@karensuepohlmeier2035]

Your hair is beautiful! I don't go to salons either...when I ask for them to cut an inch they took 6-8 inches off! I was so upset....you can't grow your hair out in a week....It took me a good year to grow it back, so after that, I said NO one besides myself will ever cut my hair again!

[@luciatat4084]

I get the opposite thing...I ask my hairdresser to take more of my hair ( like 4-5 cm) becouse it grows so fast, but she always takes about 3 centimeters of it....(probably becouse she wants me to be back sooner) 😑

[@missalys4526]

Agree!! When I went to salons I'd only go to stylists with long hair, because they seemed to understand my fear if cutting off too much! Anytime I deviated from this, I had a stylist wanting to cut so much off with the excuse "oh but for health purposes I'd really need another 4 inches..." . I really feel like alot of hair dressers get way too excited to cut off long hair. In my experience anyway..

[@leslietiwari8625]

Yeah, I can never get my hair to grow because of getting a trim and the hairdresser butchers me.

[@rightsaidfred7783]

when you look like that it doesn't matter wtf your hair looks like after you chop it.

[@missalys4526]

This girls hair is beautiful! Makes me want to be brunette again! So long, thick, & shiny..

[@blakedanielle2000]

True 😭

[@scarlet132011]

Absolutely luv your attitude about the whole hair cutting thing! Ive stopped going to hairdressers as well for many reasons, its shocking how we outsource almost everything nowadays and we all listen to ppl telling us how things are supposed to be, how irritating. You did a lovely job, you look great.

[@jamiemichelle6711]

This cut is perfect! I've grown out my bangs from high school and when they got to chin length they started to look really heavy and flat. I've been trying forever to blend them with my hair. I almost caved and cut them shorter again but this was a perfect way to blend them in and give my hair a more effortless look. Thanks!

[@Lisa.Alexandra]

Your hair is literally GOALS!

[@samb4002]

Oh my god halfway through I was thinking you butchered those layers, but the end result is amazing! Kind of want to try this now.

[@leaperrins8373]

People here need to get some perspective.. It's a fucking haircut, not DIY open heart surgery. Why don't you all start caring and whining about something important like world hunger or the fact that there are still people living on the streets in developed countries? Please stop acting like entitled spoiled children. If you don't like what you see then move on and don't attempt to recreate it at home. It's quite simple.

[@Caitlinaceves]

"DIY open heart surgery" OMG DEAD 😂😂

[@mojoblue70]

We have ppl living on the streets in the USA too, unfortunately... What does that have yo do with a hair tutorial??? Wtf??? Calm down! Geez! Haha!

[@marybethbavero983]

how about you caring about the country you live in. USA! Tons of people right here living on the street but people care about "underdeveloped" countries. If you care so much for them, then MOVE THERE and help them out. Ahhh, but no right?? Not you! Let someone else, right? Your a Moron.

[@leaperrins8373]

Marybeth Bavero I'm not sure who you are referring to here?

[@leaperrins8373]

mojoblue70 I'm perfectly calm thank you. I'm just pointing out how ridiculous the negative and bitchy comments are. Some people here have been AWFUL to this girl - over a haircut . . I mean please! Get some perspective!

[@emmajoyce5271]

I used to do something pretty similar to this and would never go to the hairdressers! Then I stopped and the past few times I've got it cut professionally, it's looked a mess with short thick layers and hasn't grown much... Carli knows her own style best and she's been doing it for years.. You can all see her hair is to die for! I'm definitely going to go back to cutting it my own way and by no means am I a professional, I just know I was so much happier when I did my own hair 😊

[@elizabethendsley6462]

Helpful tip point cut your bangs and layers so they have better blending I could see the chopy lines but if you cut vertically into the hair after you chop it it will blend so much better

[@Lprince4e]

Please notice she is using good scissors people

[@dakotarae9533]

I have cut my hair a few times with regular scissors and have had no problem

[@melanier-f2799]

If you use cheap ass scissors or not professional scissors then you're actually breaking the hair shaft and not getting a clean cut. In the long run you are breaking your hair and causing split ends.

[@korinngray]

I have been using kitchen scissors to cut my hair for the past 10 years with no split ends or "broken hair shafts" to report. The quality of giving myself bangs (especially side bangs) is a challenge and not recommended with kitchen scissors, they come out super choppy

[@ET23Edith93]

I've used my little cousins old safety scissors once, did not have a problem. Actually got complimented about my hair and the style it was cut in afterwards. I've been cutting my own hair since high school with almost any scissors I can get my hands on. The worst outcome I had was from the "right tools".

[@valrieblair9434]

I first tried your technique 6 months ago and guess what? It was my best haircut ever! Then I did it again after watching your video as a refresher and Perfect yet again! I officially have long hair, thanks Carli :)

[@ginettestauder5137]

Omg. I've been cutting my own long thick hair for 15 years. When I was 18 someone jacked it up... but babe! Use a comb from root to end before the angle cuts. Maybe it's just the ocd in me. Looks great though. You have beautiful healthy hair! No comb made me freak out a little ;)

[@funghoul05]

as a stylist i just want to go in and cross check everything lol

[@ItsMimiZLife]

Lmfao yes!

[@charliebrown-vr2nb]

lol same. idk how anyone could do this

[@Kmanzo01]

Lol me too

[@andreadiaz8622]

Me too! I died a little inside when I saw all the blunt lines

[@Kmanzo01]

D Serrano we just wanna "cross check" of course it's about her preference it's her hair. If people want to try her technique go for it. Her hair looks beautiful all the time.

[@scheilaferreira7899]

I cut my hair yesterday using this video and my hair looks great! I didn't cut much just in case it went wrong but I am so happy with it that next time I will be a little bit more adventurous :) Thank you Carli! I always thought there might have a system of cutting my own hair by dividing it into parts but I could never figure out how, and also what angles and you managed! so well done! and I am much grateful! I will only go back to the hairdresser when I decide to have my hair short again until then I am doing it myself!

[@melaniestoney1234]

I really wanna do the keratin treatment but I'm too scared to do it lol I really love my curly hair but sometimes I cry of frustration when I want it straight. I'm the only person I know that hate blow drying I can't do it and I never will its annoying and I sweat whenever I do it.

[@melaniestoney1234]

I'm just not sure where to ask and get it done and at home care. The salon I went to my whole life never explained anything to me I had to figure myself I want my frizzness to go away

[@AshleyrCoello]

Do research on the salons around you girl . It's hard finding trustworthy people . What state are you in? Don't do at home . Especially for keratin. Get it done right and they have to fix it if they mess up . Also , the keratin does weigh down the curls ALOT! So if you like your curls maybe keratin isn't the best choice . I did mines because I always have my hair straight. My curls are barely there, but I'm ok with that . There are sprays that cut blow dry time in half and you don't need a treatment . There's one from GK keratin and it's amazing! You should look into it

[@melaniestoney1234]

AshleyrCoello​ I live in new York maybe I can look into the spray that's really awesome you mentioned it thank you :). I just learned to love my curls but I cant stand it when its frizzy and I wanna look cute lol my sister hand the treatment done so long ago and they never told her what to wash it with at home. I have major trust issues with my hair

[@lynnnduhhx0]

Lolz that's funny cause I cry of frustration cause my hair is so straight

[@LaravonMondberg]

Carli, your hair is so beautiful and even though you're not a professional, you are doing it great! Plus, as long as you're happy with the result, it's fine.

[@Dailyannie]

how did you style your hair?!

[@sleecruz0320]

Yessss i want to know also

[@ravenwinter9634]

***** She just used a curling iron and curled all the layered pieces under :)

[@theresaharrington5697]

She's made a video on it before but I know she usually blow dries it with a round brush and then curls or (:

[@MM62442]

I think this is awesome. You're right, a lot of barbers just see a bunch of long hair and they just start chopping and styling it the way they want, instead of the way the person wants their hair to be. And the client is the one who has to live with the hair if it ends up being annoying! If you cut it yourself then you control what happens to it, great technique and you have a great system here. Your hair is gorgeous too!

[@ItsMimiZLife]

How does it look when you flat iron it? You should cut it wet so it's easier to cut and invest in a nice pair of shears since you cut it yourself.

[@xxviciousbeautyxx]

I think hair is better to cut dry because hair can look and lay a lot different when it's wet. My hair is curly when it's wet and I wear it straight so my ends could be uneven.

[@ltarleton7527]

She said she likes to cut her hair dry. You have to do what works for you!

[@smile4ever1995]

Dang you're such a hater just let her be.. I see you commenting on others comments , just chill it's her life I bet you ain't no pro your self .

[@sharpestacey]

also, cutting it wet will reduce any split ends caused by cutting hair dry!

[@alexiswatt4416]

One time i cut my bangs while they were wet and after they dried i looked like betty paige

[@ricadaripper]

As a hairstylist of 17 years I have no problem with this vid. When people mess up their hair doing this, the more appreciation for the hours of experience and education for what we do.

[@peganopolis]

I desperately needed a haircut a couple weeks ago, right around the time that everything shut down for coronovirus. Decided to try cutting my own hair at home and it turned out great! Thanks, Carli!

[@molly7787]

I want to......but I'm scared. lol

[@flaminhotcheetooos]

Molly Kinslow just be conservative with it! Only take off like MAYBE a quarter of an inch at first to see if you can, and thats such a short amount that it'll get any split ends off but won't really affect the length. Good luck!

[@radhefurniture603]

I was terrified when I first cut mine, but now I wiz right through it. my hair is super long too. I just added layers. safest way you do it is pull all your hair into a ponytail but at the front of your head (make sure it's even and brushed, then suzzor up into the hair. then the layer, from the ears up gather the top section and repeat but sizzor up a little more. then let your hair down. :) do a little at a time till you're comfortable. I took 4 inches off my shortest layer. looks great.

[@carlynunez2075]

That is the technique I use... the pony tail. It works wonderfully and you really cant butcher your hair. I think doing it the way in this video for ME... it would not end well. She is beautiful and her end result is amazing, however, I will stick to my ponytail technique.

[@jeanniemk72]

I can only imagine how nice it is to have such a lovely mane. So pretty!

[@jeniromero1949]

WOW! YOU ARE GORGEOUS! I'm a retired hairdresser and absolutely love your technique and admire your tenacity to boldly layer your beautiful long hair. I'm not sure if I am even there yet but, maybe after taking a few pain pills, I would be able to withstand holding up my arms and cutting my own long hair as well. Congratulations darling on a job well done. 👍👏🍃🌹🍃💇‍♀️

[@TheBeautybyKristen]

Just a tip from a cosmetologist: Use a guide from the bottom layer. Your bottom layer is way too long for the rest of your hair, and it makes it look mullet-esque. I was scared for you when you started aimlessly chopping at the top part at the crown.

[@tina6442]

Just a tip from a human being: Respect other people's opinions as long as they are not hurting you in any pertinent manner. She said from the beginning this is what works for her and how she loves her hair. And it does not look mulletesque, now that was just being a little internet troll.

[@michellediciurcio876]

her hair is so long n pretty nuttin mullet like at all

[@flowergirl11470]

Just because you are a cosmetologist doesn't mean you know what to do! Haha I have had so many hair stylist who went to cosmetology school mess my hair up.

[@amandac4107]

TheBeautybyKristen As a cosmetologist: her hair looks great, I was cringing while watching it happen because I'm a huge advocate of "leave it to the professionals" (at home bleaching videos make me want to cry) but she literally doesn't look like she has a mullet-esque style whatsoever. I was pleasantly surprised by how great it turned out. I'm just sad she's had bad experiences because she could totally afford to go to a great hair stylist by now. I would love to get a chance to cut/color/style that beautiful mane of hair!

[@beautybymarinastar]

TheBeautybyKristen not true a lot of clients are asking for that now because if you cut the bottom layer it can make the hair appear shorter and thinner!! i love leaving out the bottom layer it actually makes a huge difference.

[@asiya271]

Very true... Hairdressers really spoilt my hair and made its worse over the years to the point that it stopped growing... And now it's been 1.6 years since m growing my hair without cutting... My hair feels so much healthier and they are actually growing.

[@starrpeppful]

Its amazing to see the type of women who end up having to cut their own hair due to bad experiences at the salon. Ive come to youtube searching for self cut tutorials for the same reason. I mean every time I got my haircut it got butchered. Im glad to know Im not the only one & to find help on here! Ive been struggling with this issue for years! I finally have long healthy hair again & nobody is touching it but me! Txu for the tutorial

[@suelester2259]

i dont think this person would look bad if she was bald. it looked great. gorgeous hair

[@aletab3051]

She would.

[@AALEV61]

Hairdressers say that she is doing wrong, because if everyone cut their hair themselves they are afraid of not having to work. She has beautiful hair, it is the most important, I agree it is not perfect, it is not worse than the hairdresser...

[@geethanjalib7987]

I followed your method and my hair turned out to be so much better than before...Thanks for this method and to say this is the first time I've ever cut my hair by myself!!!

[@enzarella2486]

😮😅t

[@cathyduffy1249]

Your hair is so healthy looking loved the cut its stunning xx

It's so shiny and beautiful!!!!!!

MiniMeeshie thanks girly!!! XOXO

[@MiniMeeshie]

[@haleigh-jadehamiltonsmith22]

I had ruined my hair through cutting it myself originally so I let it grow for a while, I watched this tutorial and thought "I need to cut my hair" WOW! My hair has never had so much bounce and volume and it's also a lot stronger, people have asked me where I got it done and when I told them about this video they were so shocked, I absolutely love Carli and all her videos, thank you so much for helping me save my hair! Xo

[@andreahutton7309]

It's your hair and it suits you, I think it helps coz you have a lot of it ! But it's not blended well when it's straight

[@LotsOffGlitter]

Crazy technique but results are amazing!!

[@RSSHARES]

5 MILLION AND GROWING!!YOU GO GIRL!! COLAB WITH SOME BROWN GIRLS PLEASE!!

[@sanderskennedy]

Wait.... I legit thought that pink towel was a Cape that you can get from Barneys New York , lol she makes everything look like a million bucks. Xoxoxox

[@CarliBel55]

sanders kennedy You so cuuuuute :)

[@beautybymarinastar]

i like using a razor (not like a shaving one an actual haircutting one lol) for cutting the ends of the hair when doing layers because it texturizes the hair better and blends it so you don't have to angle the scissors like that :) also cutting vertically with the scissors pointing up at the ends will also help blend it better (: im sure there is videos about it but yeah i think you would like that!(:

[@AshleyrCoello]

You can do that with scissors too just open them up and wala. My mom does it all the time :)

[@beautybymarinastar]

yeah that works too!(:

[@DonnaJoshi]

I cut my own hair all the time. I also color my own hair. Alot is trial and error and a bit of common since. I love Carli's hair. It's beautiful!

[@Mrsbieber201]

im curious to know how your hair looks after the shower with keratin, like without styling it? so i know if i shld do keratin or not. idw to do it and have to still use heat.

[@xodalia6931]

My hair was pretty curly and frizzy and I got a keratin treatment in January and for the first 3 months I would say I didn't use any heat or products. My hair out the shower would dry fairly straight and completely frizz free, it would even take less drying time. now it's getting the curls and frizz back and I need to have it redone but in my opinion it was completely worth it. I was amazed by what it did to my hair because I would never be able to let it air dry. I would have to either use gel or heat to get it manageable.

[@popcornlover722]

Farah ak i personally dont recommend doing the keratin treatment, I use to get it done for years and I have tried different brands of keratin and different stylists. Some stylists have a crappy and lazy technique when it comes to applying the keratin treatment so be familiar with the process if you decide to get it done. It was worth it the first handful of times I got it done but I can say from experience overtime it thins out your hair in the long run! I have been keratin free for 1 year and a few months and I have crazy curly hair. My hair is finally back to being thick and growing at a normal rate.

[@xodalia6931]

really? I feel like it made my hair stronger. lol my hair wouldn't break as easily. I've only done it once though so maybe with constant use it will eventually wear the hair out

[@popcornlover722]

yeah i was getting it done for maybe 3-4 yrs every 3-4 mths and in the long run my hair was just thinning out. I naturally have pretty thick hair but with fine/fragile strands. The process and the intense heat from the blower AND straightner throughout the process is what damaged my hair. I'm not gonna lie the first 2 yrs my hair was on point but unfortunately its not worth it in the long run!

[@xodalia6931]

That's definitely something to think about now that you've mentioned it. Thanks!

[@MessoverOG]

I'm a professional master stylist and a cutting expert. The next time you want to get your hair cut you should shop around for a long hair cutting expert, preferably at a Salon with a good reputation. Not all hair stylist are equal unfortunately, just like any other profession. Simply put, you could buy an original Prada or coco channel, or you could go to Queens and get a knock off in the back of a truck, the choice is yours. BTW, those scissors are not professional hair cutting shears. I wouldn't recommend cutting your own hair just like I wouldn't recommend doing your own at home surgery. You seem like you have some skills. I suggest getting your cosmetology license then getting a few years under your belt before putting out information that could possibly cause an unwarranted lawsuit. Overall, I like your makeup techniques and I feel you would do really well once you have some professional training. I hope you decide to go that route. You're an amazing and inspiring girl. Thanks for posting! ❤️

[@naomikrahn1944]

lol i love this video she clearly explains she's not a hair dresser but does her own hair because hairdressers have mess up her hair so much. I'm in the same boat and have been cutting my own hair for years, now i have beautiful very long hair and will not ever let a professional cut my hair, to many mess ups that cant be fix, made me so unhappy evertime i would walk out of the salon.

[@biancapichardo4851]

Mess Over hahaha she stated that she was not a professional but she likes it her way

[@takecare0721]

Mess Over she can't get a lawsuit from cutting her own hair lol bye

[@MessoverOG]

I think people are missing my point here. As a professional who's been in the industry, my advise is that she put out some sort of a disclaimer to cover herself. Also she would do herself and many others a service by going the professional route and possibly enter the salon industry. She could be the next Sam Villa or who knows, even Sassoon himself. Would love to see her pursue a career in cosmetology since she clearly has some mad skills. ❤️

[@coryo2485]

Technically she does make a disclaimer from the title. It's how she cuts her own hair and in no way has she ever told anyone to go and do it. When a person decides to follow this video, they do so with their own free will and with the knowledge that she isn't responsible for any mistakes made by these people. So technically you can't sue her and a judge would just laugh that person out of their courtroom, since they would tell them you did this on you own free will and in no way did she force you to cut your hair. So even mentioning a lawsuit made no sense. That's not being rude but stating a pure fact. Also look at her discription box. It says try at you own risk. That right there is her disclaimer. Though I can see why you said it but fact is, can't sue for something you did at will.

[@SusanYavaniski-mw1zw]

I am grateful beyond measure for this video, use it every time I cut my long hair, always looks great.

[@saraalvarez1547]

Come to Chicago please 😩😩😩😃

Hi Carli, I followed your instructions: Absolutely happy with the result!! Thank you!

[@melbabe4366]

You know what you're doing when you cutting your own hair lot of people probably felt like. They don't want to go to salon how people just yet because I'm tired of your hair and they don't listen how you want it done I know what you're saying when I saw your video it gave me courage to do my own hair and it came out just like yours keep doing a good job

[@sophiaalexandria1917]

Can't wait till my hair is your length 😭🙌🏼

[@sevencutetweens2030]

Me too

[@elibjo01]

My hair is longer than down to my butt ahahahah

[@Salma--s]

your hair is so beautiful, it looked gorgeous before the haircut 😢

[@SaharH2023]

you are much better than most of the professionals, loved it!

[@ELV547]

The hair dressers always mess up my hair so I'm definitely going to be trying this

[@LittleMissScareAll17]

All I'm seeing is "as a cosmetologist" this and "as a licensed pro" that. Can y'all just shut up? The title made it very clear what the video was going to be about so why click on it just to leave your unnecessary opinions? She clearly stated she doesn't trust anyone with her hair so why keep saying to go to a professional? I'm licensed too but that doesn't mean I'm going to force my opinion down someone's throat. At the end of the day it's her hair, let her be.

[@jessicagomez783]

Your telling us not to give our opinions and yet u just stated your opinion....?? Wow.

[@LittleMissScareAll17]

Y'all's is unnecessary. Y'all are saying you're cringing and begging her to go to a professional. I'm not forcing my license down her throat like you guys are. "Wow".

[@M.T.44]

I've cut my hair for more than 5 years. And sometimes it went wrong and most of the time I was very pleased with my haircut. Anyway, the time I messed up , I didn't mind because at least I was the one who did it. After 5 years I went to a pro because of my arthrosis in my shoulder, and she said she didn't see I've cut my hear myself, it was well done. She was even surprised !! And I've hair up to my shoulder, so it's much difficult to put that in layers than long hair. Concgratulations for all who are cutting their hair themselves!

[@tinsfl342]

Omg... I'm cringing, I am to a hairstylist and this makes me want to cry..... Please guys go to the pros for this!!! Yes her concept was on the right track but there's no blending and shears from Walmart can not be a good choice!!

[@sams517]

She clearly doesn't like it and likes the result she gets doing it herself

[@sarabeg6924]

I'd go to a pro if they actually gave me a trim instead of a full cut like I asked. As long as Carli likes it, then good for her.

[@ItsMimiZLife]

Right! Lol I'm a hairstylist too

[@tinsfl342]

Week that's great that she likes it and I love her, I'm just saying as a hairstylist it's harder it fix it when people do there own hair at home and really mess it up, ya it might look good when it's done and curled under to hide the imperfections but if your not going to do that everyday it won't look that great.

[@tinsfl342]

Well*

[@1829Emily]

your hair is so gorgeous

[@glamyla4136]

your hair cutting videos made me give myself a makeover at 2 am :D but i LOVEE how it came outt!! best hair cut tutorial ever

[@danielavillota6020]

You are so pretty Carly... and such and inspiration.... I have seen your videos for years now.... love from ecuador

[@AshleyrCoello]

Woooooo Ecuador!!!!!

[@rubyanntorres9618]

Rewatching in 2019 cuz your recent video was so satisfying 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@chelybeann]

Rubys Journey same though!!!

[@TaniaCastaneda1]

I cut my hair 2ice after watching this tutorial and its come out wayyyy better than any stylist has ever cut my hair 👏🏻 thank u!

[@Ammeta]

omg what lipstick is that? so stunning

[@CameraB]

I'm sorry but I cringed while watching this video, it looks so choppy. I understand about not trusting these stylists tho. Some of them have ruined my hair many times.

[@butterflysoul92]

Look at her hair tho obviously cutting her own hair is working for her!

[@noxfior]

It is not choppy. She simply chose to keep blunt ends. The whispy ones just reduce the volume of the hair and look good on people with lots of hair, but not so good on those who generally have their hair laying flat. You obviously haven't seen what choppy looks like. She did a better job than lots of professional jobs I've seen around and she's obviously happy with the result.

[@popcornlover722]

***** the layers are choppy but it looks really good in my opinion. Each layer she cut was thick and gives volume to her hair. Which I understand bc having keratin in your hair makes it all flat.

[@breeangelo478]

***** Who cares!

[@missmya3972]

***** People needs to find one stylist and stick with them... I know its difficult to find that perfect one. Thank goodness I found one. I can walk in and just tell her to do whatever she wants with my hair. I have total confidence and trust in her.

[@lamellow4996]

I am a licensed cosmetologist and I do think this turned out beautifully and you did an amazing job but I would recommend to you and everyone else to purchase their shears from Sally's instead of Walgreens. They have a very decent selection of from Brand shears that will be a total game-changer. The sharper this year and the better the brand Mark are put into it then a better result. Sharp scissors or shears create amazing cuts and can save a bad cut. It also prevents you from having split ends in other hair problems in the future.

[@bluexnosex]

Hi Carli, how do you manage to make your hair look so shiny / glossy? What products do you use? :-)

[@faa4374]

it doesn't look that great when it straight it looks nice only when its curled...

[@cat2thevine]

Okay so I cut my hair using her tutorial and I swear guys IT LOOKS SO GREAT!!!! And get fun with it too! My hair wasn't as long as hers but the steps still work out, just keep in mind the differences in length :)

[@makeupbyKB]

IM SCARED TO HAVE ANY PERSON WHOS NOT PROFESSIONAL IN CUTTING HAIR TO CUT MINE LOL

[@makeupbyKB]

HowToKim Carli you are so pretty!!!

[@AshleyrCoello]

Me too ! My mom does hair and she's done my hair my entire life and she just moved upstate and I'm desperate. She recommended someone to me and thank god she's good. It's hard finding people that know what they're doing

[@enbylez1170]

HowToKim Did you literally just reply to your own comment and tell yourself you're pretty?

[@makeupbyKB]

Laughy Sapphy no i said "Carli, your so pretty"

[@enbylez1170]

HowToKim Ohhhh okay that makes much more sense

[@janiemelgoza166]

love how you butchered your hair and it looks awesome, we all can not pull that one off, but lucky you. i have super long hair and i wont let no one cut it, i do myself.Thanks for sharing.

I used some of your techniques and now my fine hair looks thicker and better! THANKYOU Carli! I'm never going to a hairdresser again :)
