How To Cut and Style a Short Shag

[@bigspoon685]

I've met sam twice and let me tell yall, he is all love 🧡 a great teacher

[@samvillahair]

Thanks for the LOVE

[@sandragalli5588]

He’s the best !!

[@lindaparsons6]

I've met Sam about 4 times, he is a wonderful teacher. I would let him cut my hair in a heartbeat.

[@amyk8488]

Sam you are. STAR. I could watch your videos for days. I think you are just the greatest.

[@canyongal2138]

Hi Sam! I'm just a gal who really needed a haircut, and couldn't wait for the salon to reopen. SO I tried doing this cut by myself - ha! What I COULD do was divide my hair into sections. What I could NOT do was hold the scissors and do the long/short, etc. techniques - of course! So I just cut my hair as best I could, using your sections as a guide. I think it came out pretty great! I'm lucky to have curly hair that can be chopped up a bit, without really showing mistakes. Thanks so much for your tutorial! It almost makes me want to go into hair styling - but, I'm already retired! Thanks!

[@lillyriter8261]

i'm scanning the comments for this exactly, i'm considering doing this on myself, by myself. no experience. would you recommend it?

[@wendysway7350]

A sphere is a sphere is a sphere!!! If you were a stylist, you'd understand it

[@doraayalacastro5380]

This so excellent 😍 I am not hairdresser but I have wanted this exact style. Now that I've seen it cut, just a matter of finding a professional who understands curly hair and give me this shape without creating a mess. My hair is unusual it hold a curl for one day next day it actually flatten straight within day. Cutting my hair always been a challenge.. The stylists go too short it will be a month before it actually look the way I want it. This is so exciting thank you

[@festivelady826]

It's one thing to be a fabulous stylist, but to be able to teach someone else your trade along with it, and you have the force of nature that is Sam Villa. I'm not a hair stylist, but I just love to watch him.

[@ronieelise6143]

I love how the best continues to learn ! I guess that's why you're the best!

[@samvillahair]

Thank you my friend! 💜

[@dolls4456]

Love love love the way you train/teach! I’ve been out of the game for years! But watching you just makes me want to get back in ! Lol you are so awesome! Thanks 🙏🏽

[@sandracwhite9165]

Love your shows. I miss hair designing so much. How ling does it take to become a hairdresser now.

[@sandrasimpson3924]

I’m not a hairdresser. Just a lover of great haircuts/styles and this is friggen fabulous!

[@printscreen5076]

Love the video instruction and love the 90s Snoop Dogg-esque background music 😀

[@michelevickery2231]

I cut my hair like this today ( ex hairdresser here) and it turned out great!! My hair is about 25-30% curlier than this mannequin so I did change a couple things. Instead of cutting layers 1/8 inch longer than the guide like he suggested, I cut them about 1/4 inch longer which gave my curls more " room" for a more pieced out effect. I did not slide cut top section but did point cut and used my thinning shears a good bit! Loving it!

[@samvillahair]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@mellissacollier2153]

Wonderful. I am not a beautician and I think I could do this haircut on my girls using your video. My g-ma, mother, and a daughter were/are beauticians, but I opted out. I will show this to my hairdresser before my next appointment so I can SHOW her exactly what I am unable to EXPLAIN to her about the look I want, which is my fault because I do not know the hairdresser language or products, tools, etc. I like an easy, casual, softlined, fluffy, and natural look that is not a "fixy" or formal perfect do (which g-ma and mother did in their era). I am very gray, silver, and white haired with very fine hair now mixed with the wiry weird texture of some of the grays. Thank you very much. ...Country Grandma

[@DanielleSnyder]

This video is great! Thank you for the tips. 👏🏻

[@mariacurry9780]

I love it! I’m cutting my own right now! Gracias Sam!❤❤❤

[@ronieelise6143]

Awesome any differences for curly hair?

[@racheldoesacrylic4089]

i admire the way real hair artists work because to me a proper hair dresser makes you look fantastic without cutting all your hair off i wish i knew a decent hairdresser most times i come away and think i could have done it myself/ i keep my hair a decent trim as im 59yrs and do the grey hair i think as you get older you need to keep it choppy because we lose all the hormones and it falls out sadly//great vid thankyou you given me great ideas/

[@queeneywarren9474]

This is exactly what I am looking for I went to the beauty shop and they don't know what they are doing do you think I could do this for myself

[@sharonlatour6230]

Sammy, THAT whole thing was awesome! SEXY hair!! I'm not a stylist, but I just love watching you work and teach!

[@lgrillo]

Sam had a bit of trouble holding on to things in this video! I’ve never seen a cutting technique like this before and not sure how to maintain that cut after the first time since the short to long layers alternate from side to side in 1/8th sections around the top of the head, but I love the result and Sam is awesome.

[@littlebird8837]

I love your videos, Sam...gorgeous haircut and styling....💞

[@pattysmallwood2408]

I will definitely be using the twist and diffuse technique on my next blow dry! Thank you so much for sharing such valuable information!

[@amyk8488]

Love you Sam. You are the best. I don't cut professionally but i cut my own and have learned so much

[@boredweegie553]

Just shows you that not one hairdresser cuts the same style the same..I've been watching Hairdressers cutting all sorts of shag hairstyles all morning..This is very different from most I've been watching..interesting though ❤️👌

[@felicienchanel8960]

Thanks for this Sam, could immediately think of a client for whom this would be perfect. Your work is amazing.

[@joym824]

I always cut with those combs, love them. I loved this styling technique

[@wendysway7350]

Retired, but lovin' the show!!!

[@wendysway7350]

Lovin' your combs!

[@wendysway7350]

Going to try this Redkin product!!!

[@wendysway7350]

Education... great!

[@lisacody61]

PERFECT LOVE IT SAM

[@ilsagalvin7195]

With gratitude... Excellent teaching retchniiq ...

[@zhannasviridenkova6051]

Sam,thank you so much for such a thorough tutorial!Will definitely do this cut on a client 👍

[@melaniewhite444]

Well I am so excited to do this! Holy St! I believe my life will be on a whole new level! Thank you for this incredible experience, product knowledge, and technique!

[@samvillahair]

You're so welcome!

[@kmSm0212]

Love this cut!

[@judithcote758]

Really love❤️ this haircut❤️

[@AP-nx6xo]

I like the shag cut. If I get it, I will style it differently every time I wash it. I think I would tire of that look quickly but watching Sam cut was very interesting Thanks👍🏻

[@minervaguzman5941]

Omg so beautiful. Where do I go? You need to do this for my hair. Gorgeous

[@nancygsmith1533]

How would this be recut in a trim it up situation...This process is so different than most use. Help.

[@marnid2235]

Regarding the term: "scan". I assume that means notching or point cutting? If not, what is the difference? Sam Villa: You have great education videos! Thank you.

[@aadaharovlog4362]

wow... i love the way you teach. 😍

[@joym824]

I really enjoy watching you Sam! And I've been lucky enough to see you work live several times in St Louis 😊

[@mindywillard8213]

What is the name of the product you used before drying the hair?

[@sarahnez9137]

Did you mention a product. Was it redkin cutting lotion

[@bridgetslavin5921]

Love this cut. So feminine!

[@nancygsmith1533]

Can this be done without bangs?

[@samvillahair]

Absolutely Nancy :-) Just continue the same pattern on top to the front hairline

[@TheTruthResearchers]

Interesting!

Nice 👏♥️💐

[@donnadavidson5213]

you are the best

[@momzilla9491]

Curly hair alert! If someone began cutting the back of my hair that short, (4" to 6" long shag?), my curly hair would afro. Forget trying to do anything with your air if the humidifier is over 60% chance of rain times. Curly hair can loose up to 4" of length. In other words, cut long throughout your hair the first time through. Second time you take off the excess from just behind the ears forward. Remember? You have much more hair in the back of your head. Forget time saving one size. Blend if you can.

[@janinedear-barlow]

The top is the same principle as the video you did on layers on fine hair.

[@jenhouston2571]

Dear god, thank you!!!!!!

[@earthsingle3586]

🙏i love it

[@celesteattore8495]

Molto bravo, certo non vorrei essere quel manichino. Mi spiegate cosa vuol dire con quel pettine? Io non ho capito, in ITALIANO GRAZIE

[@Katrn30]

[@mirietasina3932]

[@CarlaMamita]

[@lindagarza1214]

[@sae2701]

[@MsKris2626]

I can hardly find stylists that will even use product on your hair now. It’s like they don’t want to share it now

[@ceamean]

Thank you but this hairstyle is the most high maintenance I've ever had bc I have fine hair and not much of it. It was not my choice. The hairdresser ruined my cut and I had to go to another salon to get it fixed and ended up with this cut

[@samvillahair]

[@mscarolynnigro]

I dont know anyone who could do this

[@amyk8488]

You should create a curl clip to put in the hair.for.defusing. large for long hair short for.short hair. Your hand must kill after a while. 💙

[@earthsingle3586]

Good morning

I could feel my scalp on fire while watching the blow drying process. 😂

Amazing class 👍 thank you for beautiful sexy haircut video🙏👏

[@jeriannejackson1544]

Cut mine

[@tiffanycrystalclear]

Obviously this hair cut it’s not suitable for all hairy heads and textures. He missed explaining or pointing it out! - what does look great on that other person may not look good on you ! Mannequin looks great 😂 she got perfect features ha ha of course, it can be always customized accordingly.

[@dragonbone5000]

Wow how ungrateful. This is a teaching tutorial. Like nuggets of gold for students.

[@PamelaMauro-xw6pp]

No one knows how to do this anymore. All the great Nyc hair stylists are either retired or dead.
