How to Cut Curly Hair with Deva Curl | Beauty TV

[@curlyjo84]

This method is very effective, i tried it myself. Trimming the curls dry is good for me since my hair shrinks. With this method my curls felt right where i wanted them.

[@ryanwade1234]

I am a hairdresser and have read "curly girl" and followed everything that she says about cutting curly hair and it has been wonderful. I am completely "known" for being able to cut curly hair, and it is soooooooo simple. At least 30% of my clientele now is curly and it's great.

[@talesia]

I spent years begging stylist, please don't cut my hair wet, I have maximum shrinkage and if you cut it wet its going to be way too short once its dry. I'm glad someone made a technique out of dry cutting hair!

[@crazygoofu2]

I've actually found a hair stylist who does this with my hair 6 months ago and It made a big difference in my hair! I hated my hair before but since then I've grow to like it. I love the product too but I can't afford them yet so I stuck wit the cheaper products. Anyways, its such a relief that I can find someone who knows how to deal with curly hair.. i wish i found my stylist sooner.

[@queenrosesblue]

i figured out this trick to cut my curly hair when its dry a few years ago!i love it, im never meting anyone else cut my hair again!

[@Kiara-ro2ut]

The salon I go to actually does this for customers like me with curly hair. They use deva curl products and everything! I haven't regretted going to them for one second!

[@linlupin]

I really wish Deva stylists would get some educators and teach around in beauty schools, or at least SOMEONE that knows how to actually cut curly hair! All the instructors tell us to make curly hair DRENCHED before you cut it, and that is obviously not gonna turn out good at all! (sad part is, that they've been cutting hair a REAL long time, and one has a salon in her house even! )

[@sibkiss2009]

That was great. I was cutting hair today at school. The student volunteer had curly hair, highly texturized with a razor (she did it herself) that had grown out and she wanted an A line graduated style. We discussed her hair and it's behavior. I shampooed and conditioned it because it had been tinted brown and had recently been died electric blue in streaks on the side. I wanted to cut it after it had dried, to see where the hair would lay, and then layer it to keep it from being bushy.

[@mdbeautyguru]

Lorraine- the hair cutter, is my auntie :) so proud of her

[@f.m.m6706]

Lucky you! Your hair must look amazing with her at your fingertips.

[@RussianPlaylist111]

Finally somebody who knows how to cut curly hair!

[@artchick07]

Yay! I finally get to see a Deva cut in action!

[@TheSedika]

Girl is swinging those scissors around like Whoa.

[@lisareidmitchell]

I'm a Stylist , I like this technique..it works well..thumbs up

[@youlosez]

This is such a good video. Screw going to a barber, I'm going to trim it myself.

[@orangevirago87]

@girlzrock44 She's making a couple of key points: 1) Curly Hair should be cut dry because a) we wear it dry, not wet, b) wet hair has a different shape than dry hair, and c) because curly hair shrinks so much when drying 2) Curly-heads shouldn't use sodium-based products (MOST shampoos are sodium based) because they strip and dry the hair. Your hair then gets HUGE because it's expanding into the air trying to grab moisture. She recommends using "No-Poo" products that don't have sodium.

[@vegahw]

@SydellexX I've heard that if when shorter your hair curls more, then you must have thin hair because when it's longer the weight of your hair makes your hair less curly. It's just the way your hair is, i guess.

[@tobywinter1]

I just cut my own hair.....dry....after seeing this video. I doubt if I will ever pay to have my hair cut again. Cutting it into a shape that flatters my head and face was so easy. My whole life I've warned hairdressers that my hair shrinks up alot once it dries but it's like I'm talking to a wall. Result: hair so short that I want to cry on my way home and for the next several weeks. No more.

[@LaDominicana33]

The problem with curly hair is that not enough people know how to cut it. Ive seen sooooo many people get haircuts from people who only know how to cut straight hair and they totally screw it up. Any stylists who tells you cutting both types of hair is the same, curly heads stay away.

[@mybrownb]

@TaintedxHalo: MANY PEOPLE HAVE CURLY HAIR but Straighten it because today's Idea of Beauty is the Staight Slick Bone Straight Hair. I love my Curly Hair.

[@Becca62382]

@MysTaria87 No it is in Wadsworth. You could try calling some of the "nicer" salons in your area and ask them if they do the Deva Cut and compare prices. Otherwise, I say make a trip to Wadsworth. :)

[@DrRisk01]

LALALOVE THIS! NOW I KNOW HOW I'M GONNA TRIM MY HAIR

[@nadakels]

i used to get made fun of cause of my curly hair in school but now IDGAF!! people are just jealous . if u embrace your hair, other people will too, and now i am admired for my hair because i wear it with confidence. :)

[@YulaTsheringSherpa]

great! This is how im going to trim my hair from now, thank you!

[@RacerWife7]

@EmilyBreast - don't hate it! Love it!! Curls are awesome!

[@Becca62382]

I found a place in Northeast Ohio that charges $34 for this haircut....can't wait to go have it done. :)

[@GaurdianAngel1231]

Sooo how do we make it look nice and hav moisture without using gel or hair products

[@queenrosesblue]

@cpionk313 Strands I want to stay long I only trim, so they're less wispy. The sides and back of my hair I layer more for volume. I usually try to cut with a slight diagonal angle, so it looks more natural and you don't get that chopped look. NEVER cut big locks at once, use small sections and gradually increase the amount for subtle layers. When curly hair is dry you can see how the curls rest, and that's how you know where to cut; don't cut too much, your hair will shorten up after a shower!

[@nicolemrn1]

Wow, they both have beautiful hair. I have tight coiled curls like them, but my hair doesn't look like that and I wish it did! How are you supposed to know who is qualified for cutting curly hair? Seems like I cant find anyone in my area that knows how!

[@grunntalll]

@mybrownb i "straighten" my curly hair because it's way too short for it to look good, if i air dry it just looks bad also because i have a higher forehead. Im gonna wait for it to grow long and then i'll wear it naturally.

[@shibbydoo322]

This lady has really pretty hair!

[@kgsunshine]

Go to DevaChan's website and they list stylist in different states that have taken their training. I found a really good stylist in Chicago that way.

[@tammymcginty3610]

Yes, I did the same in the suburbs of Atlanta GA! "Chadwicks" in Buford, GA. 😎👍❤

[@NarelleCustomSongs]

I know what you mean! I haven't yet encountered any professionals who know what Lorraine is talking about. I bought her book "Curly Girl, The Handbook" (discount plus free shipping from bookdepository.co.uk) and am learning to cut my own. Got my sister to do the back where I can't reach. She was glad to learn a new skill. =)

[@heidishoshana]

@anthonyd3903 what's wrong is me going to a normal stylist who doesn't know how to cut curly hair and have her chop of 5-6 inches when I ask for a small trim because she doesn't understand my shrinkage issues. dry cutting curly hair is a godsend!

[@-Lovely-Vee-]

Love it!! She made me want to grab a pair of scissors and trim my curls and save like $100 on a Deva Cut!!! LOL idk how the back would look tho >_> but I could definitely frame my face and outer laying edges ^.^

[@LunaOverEden]

I love my curly hair Thank God!

[@holistic7980]

The model was smiling so sweetly. I know how revealed she is.

[@girlzrock44]

Can someone explain to me what she was saying please? I couldn't understand that much... I'll appreciate if someone helps me out.

[@isasynn]

this lady is awesome

[@oceantasi75]

I LOVE MY CURLY HAIR!!! i was told all my young life by aunts and random runts to 'go comb your hair', DAMN THAT! a what? a flat iron? what's that?

[@logiclight]

AMAZING video!

[@DMarie0824]

Do you mean it looks like you have split ends going up your curls kind of? I have the same problem. Like when I look at a ringlets it looks like they are going up the strands of my hair. :/

[@Neekolassify]

@hellokitkat3000 use mousse or gel, but don't use a lot when putting it in. c:

[@cpionk313]

@vanillamonsterparis7 Really? I am thinking about trying that! Do you have any pointers? How do you make sure you get all the pieces and so it is still even?...by just cutting a very small amount off?

[@LeaveJordanAlone]

this chick knows what shes talking about

[@ColetteV]

well i dont live in the U.S, so i know not many hair stylist know this technique, i have like a mixture or wavy and boticelly curls, down to my waist, and i cut my hair every 6 months or so, but i always ask the stylist to cut just a little bit of my ends in a V shape but not in layers, because if i want to wear it straight at least it would look like a V and not like i let a child cut my hair like crazy. I dont like to cut my hair too short because then it looks way too triangular shaped.

[@sallygiancanna4300]

Would you say the same goes for permed hair? I am fighting with stylists to get a good cut after all that money and always coming home to a bad cut. Thank god it is usually too long but this last time she butchered it.

[@kristylee6314]

Yes it would be the same, because it's a permanent curl, whether natural or chemical. So you should find a stylist who is trained to cut curly hair ( the best is to find a stylist who has curly hair herself, whether permed or natural) and go in with your hair styled the way you like and have them cut it, or if you don't know how to style it yet then have them wash you set you up for a natural style via scrunched up and under a hooded dryer. Then once it is dry she would be able to see the natural state of the curls and see what should be trimmed. And that would be it! (: Hope that helped! I should know, I have naturally curly hair, and a licensed hairstylist (;

[@alinflamingo]

The name of the video is How to Cut Curly Hair! And you don,t know exactly how to do that! Curly hair is a Gift ! Is a true art to know how to cut him!

[@becomefreewithalex]

its I nice try to get the curls done but not enough, I know a hairdresser in Vienna he cuts it better .

[@brandybobo2980]

She explained it so well!! I love her on Video! It such an AH HAAAA Moment!! Thank You so much.

[@sara_el.a]

@angie4779 ow really I'll try it, but does your hair get frizzy when you go outside and I didn't understand it really well, do I just have to make a ponytail and let it dry, cause that doesn't sound really helpfull to me but my English isn't that good so sorry...

[@telltalemse]

does anyone know why my hair could be looking healthy, shiny and wavy/straight one day, but usually not? some of my hair is pretty curly, but all the hair underneath is usually really straight, healthy and shiny. what does this mean? and though i dont think i have really thick hair, i have a lot of hair, just like the girls in the video. i want to have less volume but im afraid of getting layers. any tips are welcome....

[@chocochoco12chocolat]

@EmilyBreast yeah I know how you feel my hair is so big and pooofy and I don't like it at all and I would like to know how to thin it out. I'm not a volume kind of person. It just bugs me.

[@aphroditearva176]

what lovely hair!

[@vegahw]

@xforeverxlovexo :/ Maybe it just needs more moisture. Try to not shampoo your hair everyday maybe just once a week and just rinse with conditioner everyday. I know it seems tough at times but it's all about learning how to manage it. Good luck and trust me once you learn how to manage it, you will LOVE LOVE your hair.

[@MsDF936]

What did she say kills curly hair? I want some of it.

[@princeicio]

MsDarcyfan sodium lauryl sulfate

[@starwarsfreak1111]

i know EXACTLY how you feel. i told my hairdresser to cut three fingers-length off my hair and she took off like 10-15 cm... guess there's nothing left to do but wait till it grows back :)))

[@inkedcoder]

annddd she's beautiful.

[@holistic7980]

yes😊

[@CeruleanKat15]

I'd love to try this, but I'm scared it'll look like a mess when I straighten it!

[@raine1988]

@pattycolleen Indeed! check with the more "popular" places and check how much experience they have with curly hair. If they try to cut it straight across... tell them no right there and then, That is absolutely the wrong way to cut hair like ours

[@SydellexX]

hey i was wondering if anyone could help me? :) i have curly hair too but i always seem to get mine cut when it is straight when my hair is shorter its curly, so if i cut it when its dry, it would shrink further, after id have it cut does anyone elses hair do this, and if so do you recommened this cut? thanks guys! :) x

[@impossibletimelord]

@Becca62382 Hey Becca where in NE Ohio? Have you been yet and the real question is did they do a good job? I live in SE Michigan so it's a drive but not too bad if they give a good cut that doesn't give me crazy frizzy curls.

[@amibbdos]

is she brasileira?

[@SweetestMapleMami]

Lorraine is so cute lol

[@curlyhairfreak30]

OMG my hair is like that long but curlier way curlier and i love my hair it like curly but in really small ringlets

[@sara_el.a]

@nicobeing omg thank you, I'll try them but I live in Belgium so I hope all the products are availble here and again thank you so much

[@MrYatabtab]

And if She wears her hair straight what will it look like! Uneven hair? Wow I have seen this and it looks wronggg when it's straight!

[@DMarie0824]

Have a consultation first when you call and they set you up with someone who supposedly knows how to cut curly hair and ask them what techniques they use and what classes they have taken. Ask as many questions as you can, even if they get irritated. It's better than ending up with a bad haircut. Do your research so you know if they are just trying to blow smoke up your arse.

[@brownsuga1212]

i was about to cut my long hair but after watching this i've changed my mind......

[@iyadart]

that's what I've discovered myself, after years of struggling with curly hair and bad haircuts...

[@CutsieMorbid]

I am the same way.

[@anthonyd3903]

@heidishoshana bit of advice for you, dont go to a normal stylist,pay more money and get a good haircut, but then again i bet your in america, british hairdressing is the best in the world come over here we will show how to cut hair the right way

[@Zipper12345]

I have had a love hate relationship with my curly hair for 50 years....it is so hard to find hairdressers who know what they are doing!

[@METALLOVEx]

how do i controll my damn frizz its annoying i wish i had curls not curls and then a bush of frizz over it :(

[@sistersMA]

@oceantasi75 Haha, that is too true ans so funny. Whenever I get out of the shower my mom is like "did you comb your hair?" The answer is always no! People always ask "when are you gonna straighten your hair?" and I reply "when hell freezes over!"

[@SuperPeacelovemusic]

I cut my hair cut while wet at a salon and as it was drying the stylist was like "woah....it's getting way shorter then I thought it would" I left the salon not very happy and with the wierdest bookshelf layers.

[@lovekaoriori]

sodium lauryl sulfate...

[@MiraLove]

Bonsai method. Tell your curly friends.

[@MysTaria87]

@Becca62382 hmmm.. thank you. :-)

[@HadesXG]

I'm a guy with curly hair (started growing it from a buzzcut 2011 summer, it's now 2012 summer) and I hate getting haircuts lol. I had my hair cut by some lady and she fricking wet my hair and combed it and then cut my hair. She gave me the weirdest hairstyle ever and made me look all gay (no offense) so I told her I was done, paid, and left. I'm gonna tell my mom to cut it dry since I just want the volume cut.

[@RoDJ99]

That IRRITATINGLY ANNOYING moment when you tell the hair dresser to cut off ONE cm, and they cut off FOUR!!!!!!

[@MyVestHasNoSleeves]

Can she cut my hair?

[@4kidsandacat]

Now the question is, how do you find someone that knows how to do this? By the time I am sitting in my hairdresser's chair I feel like it is too late! I have called salons and asked specifically for someone who knows curly hair and been told yes we can all do this only to find I am getting a haircut from someone who acts like they are cutting a smoothhaired girl! There should be some sort of specialist certification for curly hair cutting!

[@heidishoshana]

@anthonyd3903 i do pay more money, and i go to a devacut trained stylist and my hair has never been more amazing.

[@pangeleta1967]

I think this is for curlies who do not flat iron otherwise it would be a hot jagged mess

[@Taylinator]

@TaintedxHalo Aha I suppose my curly hair isn't too bad :)

[@JoannaMuse]

Doesn't seem like you would be able to get an even cut this way. Stylists make a huge mistake when they think that because our hair is curly it will hide an imperfections from a bad cut. I want an even layered cut.

[@sara_el.a]

@angie4779 ok thx for the tip :)

[@Gerbillfury3]

I haven't had my hair cut for about 5 years because I am scared someone is going to really mess up cutting it :C

[@MysTaria87]

@Becca62382 Is it in Beachwood.. do you mind telling, because I was thinking about getting this done. You can mssg. me if you want.

[@ronnyboy1988]

god i wish she had just cut my hair, I shoud be used to these awful haircuts where they take ike six inches off without you asking, sigh.

[@janelle579]

@TaintedxHalo oh no! many people have curly hair! your wrong

[@DMarie0824]

My hair is down to my boobs but shrinks up like that. And yeah, I will have to kill someone if they cut off too much. I have more success cutting my own hair. I've left the salon crying waaaaaaay too many times because I went in with hair 5 inches too short.

[@anthonyd3903]

its not in the text book of how to cut hair BEACUSE its WRONG to cut it that way!! the ditribution and elevation of how we cut hair will give us BALANCE, picking bits of out and cutting it will achieve UNEVEN BALANCE

[@Eyerusalem_]

She did more talking than doing the job

[@MostlyCloudy]

curly hair falls the way you tell it to.

[@melyssamunson]

This was NOT a HOW TO video, this was a video where we listened to her talk about flowers, trees, & plants while she trimmed a few ends.. RICKROLL.
