How To Create Short Layers That Leave the Length at the Bottom

[@JessicaJameson]

Yes! This is what I've been trying to get in a haircut for my entire life! Thank you!

[@b.josephine769]

Literally same. Was always told we cant do that without cutting off ur hair 😭😭😭

[@carold.7907]

And I too! Went to the hairdresser yesterday and she chopped 1/2 foot off my length and didn't layer it from the top like I asked. Funny thing is she just called me and told me to come tomorrow...she must have known I was secretly upset but didn't tell her. Now I'm afraid to go back to see what she does...🙏 The truth is yes it can be done because I used to wear it like that in highschool and not one hairdresser where I live now has ever been able to do what I asked. They just can't cut hair!!!!!

[@rpdbu8250]

That’s my hair! My hairdresser keeps the length long and does short layers. In addition, she keeps the hair weigh light and not heavy. I’ve gotten so many compliments about my cuts 🥰

[@samvillahair]

Oh wow! Thanks for sharing! ♥

[@tommyjablonski3281]

Love this!!! Finally what I've wished for ! For my hair, my daughters, and granddaughters !!! We all have thick long straight hair! Need shorter layers but want to keep length!!!!?

[@davidcampbell6765]

I love the top view that shows the overdirection very easy. I understand where my body position should be and where the hair should fall.

[@rockforester7908]

This is exactly what I want and I can do this myself. Perfect! Thank you SO much! You’re brilliant! In a millionyears I could not find anyone to do this to me without totally botching it. ♥️♥️🙋‍♀️

This is the look I've been trying to get stylists to give me for years. No matter how much I pay, I always end up getting what seems like, whatever cut they're most used to giving. Never what I've asked for like this is. Would it be acceptable to share your videos with them. Is that subtle or would they see it as an insult?

[@naugler19]

Sunny Day I’m a hairstylist and I would not mind if a client wanted to show me a video to recreate as my goal is to make clients satisfied and happy with their look. But I know not all stylists are open to clients directing the cut. I recommend you make a consultation appointment with a stylist and bring the video. You will find out quickly if they are open to listening and trying this exact cut for you. And if they aren’t no big deal as it’s just a consultation which is free and you can try another stylist till you find one who will work with you.

[@ThePixilator]

@@naugler19 Thanks for your suggestion! That's a great idea. I'll try it! Have a great day.

[@Medjugoriemiss]

You have said exactly what I was going to say. Lol

[@julietrembath5551]

WoW! Excellent,, I really love the shape of this.. Love this technique. Can't wait to give it a try!

[@monetluckey8670]

Best haircut I’ve ever had was like this! and I’ve yet to find anyone to do this for me again

[@OnlyPucca]

Thank you Mr. Sam Villa. I am a hairdresser but I still struggle with this request from customers. I think you method makes it looks so beautiful.

[@stelapopova6116]

Perfect haircut! Sam, can you find option for same haircut but with fringe, would be amazing :) thanx

[@BestFriendInYourThread]

I love this option for layering! Thank you, Sam.

[@sevenblessed2543]

The phrase, "I give them an inch, and they take a mile." Was definitely made for hairdressers

[@ellencausey6317]

Wow! Thank you for all these videos there beyond helpful! I have so much Respect for Professional Hair Dressers!! I am looking to cut my Long Damaged hair! I just find it so hard to find the person to help me achieve the hair cut 💇‍♀️ i so desperately need! I was going to attempt this but I really believe I will have to just do my research find myself a professional!!

[@moosegreen2612]

Thanks Sam! Not a hairdresser but always been interested. Have just done this to my hair with much contortion and grapling with no glasses a mirror and cheap scissors and it worked great on my long hair with layers that were growing out. I also have a layered fringe and it worked with that. Happy customer! Like my hair to have a bit of rocker attitude even though over 60 lol 🤗👌. Can't afford hairdresser and they closed anyway!

[@Birdsarecoolunlikeyou]

Good for you!!

[@courtneymerrell4946]

So if someone has fine hair but A LOT of it, would you take the horseshoe higher to lighten the load and give volume ?

[@carmengarza8122]

Yessss! Very good! Genius! I am super impressed! Thank you for sharing! your technique it is awesome!

[@countessdelancret2447]

Absolutely gorgeous bravo!

[@EmilyRachael90]

Ah! Great video! Thank you, Sam!

[@janeenutley3167]

@SamVilla Thank you for sharing 🤩 Super Cool & fun techniques, very interesting!:😍 I love that soft Silhouette & esp can still pull it back/up - (clients always appreciate that) Stay safe & Tyfs 💕

[@seruh5038]

Can this work for thick wavy curly hair? I’ve been asking for this cut and no one does it! It’s like they are scared so they go basic and I’m disappointed every time. Help! How do I direct my stylist??

[@Birdsarecoolunlikeyou]

Love this technique . Hope I can teach myself ! Lol

[@hackbattle4283]

Does this work on super curly natural hair?

[@midlifemom5829]

Stumbled upon your video today. Im not a stylist, just a mom stuck at home with the gray roots growing and in dire need of haircut. Could u do a video on simple trim/bangs we could do at home to help out us ladies who cannot visit our stylists during this crazy time???

[@vipinmurali3862]

Hai sam I want to know how to hold scissors and comb in one hand

[@codename495]

Pinch the comb between your middle and ring finger, that leaves your thumb and index finger free to hold/work the scissor.

[@debrabray7548]

Beautiful, thank you

[@gerardobernal6637]

Sam can you show a tutorial on how to hold the scissors and comb the way you do!

[@NadiaNadia-be6ro]

Great teacher, kashhhh I join sir Sam. Lots of love and respect from nadia Pakistan.

[@vandnabhindi83]

I big fan of your teaching techniques god bless

[@christeneadams4248]

Anyone in Columbus, Ohio that can do my hair like this? I'm loving it🥰

[@lisad8258]

[@Elenacamppos]

Muitas dicas incríveis pena que não tem legenda em português.

[@kerinabrooke8466]

Anyone do this for me in UK?!

[@triciamssensensensibility3350]

Very cool

[@barbbutler6937]

Awesome.

[@marylouwhite226]

thanks ,, merci beaucoup sam villa

[@adril.857]

This is what I need. How can i find someone who can do this for me in TX? Referral?

[@samvillahair]

Redken’s website has a salon finder! Since Sam works with many of the Redken Salons, that would be a great resource.

[@rockforester7908]

Dude, go to LA or do it youreelf. You can do it yourself!

[@katliese]

Amazing!! Free form if you will. 🙌

[@rockforester7908]

I doubt it. I’m in Cleveland. Go to DC. OR you can do this yourself. He gives esy directions.

[@Beautyloveconfidence]

Thank you! 💜

[@TERAMcBaybrat]

BTW it's a regular long layer textured

[@najamussahar7880]

More beautiful hair cut

[@l.bailey4791]

Handsome and brilliant🎯

[@iordankamilkova8595]

Good to know what not to do.

[@lisaalvarez740]

It looks like a bob on top or a long wig

[@leticiabal7520]

Me encantan su trabajo! Podrían hacerlo sin hablar tanto por favor???!!!!

[@sabitabenson5003]

Y u harassing her 😅 Great job

[@sashajimenez4153]

i deadass don't see what's the point of this haircut

[@Wilts73]

Omg. Way to complicated

[@SSNUTHIN]

How would you adjust this cut for spirals? I have been wanting a similar shape and I wear my hair curly.

[@britjj5126]

I’m curious if this principle works on curly/coily hair too! Im thinking it would be best to work on wet hair and spray it down if it’ starts to dry and cut straight across instead of into the hair like he was🤔 I might have to buy a curly haired doll and experiment😆

[@hackbattle4283]

I'm not sure but I'm afraid on curly hair it would be poofy where the layering is and then drop. It would look like a layered curly wig on top of long curly hair. I think this cut will only work for straight hair but I'm not sure.
