This video taught me how to cut my autistic son’s hair. I’ve been cutting his hair for two years now! Thank you!!

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Oh, wow! I'm sooo glad it helped you! ❤️

[@nylarose3932]

Me too

[@nycbabyyy]

Sis THANK YOU!!!! i am a mom of 2 boys (5 and 7) and this video is a godsent. Im TIRED of havin to deal with the barbershop!. i just invested in some clippers and the outliner and i have looked at your video a couple times and I am going to start doing my kids hair!!! your video was great!

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Thank you so much for your comment. I made the video for other moms and dads who were over it like I was. My boys have had plenty of bad cuts from "professionals", not to mention all the time it takes and money wasted. It wasn't worth it.

[@nycbabyyy]

@@DanielleLaShawn omg yesssss!!!! Many times I wasn't happy with the professional cuts smh..I told my boys that they are now goin to be getting haircuts at 'Mama's babershop'.. I got them capes and everything so they will be excited about it. I'm about to be saving so much money grl. So Thank you again!!!

[@tyraniegray5096]

Thank you a million! I have a autistic son that’s terrified of haircuts and i can never find a barber that has patience and can come to my home for haircuts. I just watched this video while cutting his hair myself and i am so happy with the outcome!!! Your the best ♥️👍🏽💯

[@DanielleLaShawn]

I'm so happy to hear that. Glad it helped!

[@madisonbeautifully_locc]

Same i have 4 boys 3 are autistic

[@nicolerattless2030]

I am attempting this as well in my Autistic brother. Wish me luck! Great video!

[@nicolerattless2030]

Not sure if my post went through. I am attempting on my Autistic brother for the first time. Great Video!

[@andreaobeng-appiah4308]

You tubers, you’re all amazing with the information you shareℹ️ . I am in the same situation of having an autistic son. It’s how I found myself having to learn from online platforms such as KZbin how to teach and groom/ cut hair ( including general hygiene like brushing teeth) in a way that suits him.

[@maxjnb4816]

I wish she could just stop with that disclaimer "I'm not a barber" cause we don't believe you, you're just too good. God bless you sister.

[@DanielleLaShawn]

😩😂😂😂

[@Perfeccionista89]

I'm married to a barber but I'm learning. She's trying. Nothing wrong with being humble.

Barbers know how to cut hair sis

[@ccason1016]

Thank you for taking the time out to show us how to cut in simplified terms 🙏

[@cashflowtv6127]

Believe me i am 19 without a kid and even i prefer the way you explain it😂​@@DanielleLaShawn

[@fr3qh0pp3r]

Nice job mom !!! I’m a grandpa improving on my only grandsons haircuts as I do them. Just trying to convince him of that !!! He’s four at present. I’m a fan of the fade styles and they look nice on him. I was showing him your sons expressions. I said “ look he’s not crying cause he’s a big boy like you !” “ look he’s smiling cause he looks good with his haircut !” Great job mom !!!

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Lol, that is awesome! I hope he lets you do it and it turns out amazing!

[@aprilhanna9188]

Sending love all the way from the beautiful Bahamas, my son needed his hair to cut but I wasn't able to take him to the Baber due to my car being down atm... so I went through some of my hair supplies and found my clippers I haven't use in a lonnngggg while. Pulled them out of my hair bag my son saw it started playing with it so I said let me cut your hair, he started crying , until he saw the finished work... All he could say was WOW MOMMY, YOU DID THAT? I SURLY DID WISH I COULD SEND YOU A PICTURE. HE CAN'T STOP LOOOKING IN THE MIRROR AND THANKING ME, HE SAID HIS HAIR CUT IS WORTH $15.00, HIS UNCLES CAN'T BELIEVE I CUT HIS HAIR SO GOOD, THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS. NOW NO MORE BABER SHOP FOR THEM I'LL MAKE THIS MONEY NOW💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💈💃🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@DanielleLaShawn]

I know that's right! So happy the video helped you.

[@Vikshay]

Oh my God Thank you so much for putting it in mom terms not all that with the grain against the grain open closed. I get so confused with all that. This was straight to the point!

[@DanielleLaShawn]

You're welcome! We just need the process, the rest is irrelevant. Lol

[@annmariesmith5638]

Very detailed, thanks for sharing. I had already cut my son’s hair and messed it up , I took too much of the hairline and he already has a big forehead. But with your video I will be good.

[@DanielleLaShawn]

You're welcome!

[@independenthustle2342]

This was a wonderful job you did wow really good for a mother you go sis nothing like a mother’s love

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Thank you!

[@mcsarah5910]

Thank you for this! I've been shaving my sons hair for years now and could never master the blending fade technique. You don't know how much you have helped me with this. I've got this now 💪🏾

[@DanielleLaShawn]

So glad it helped you!

[@SFBr-sc4jq]

Me too, thanks!!!

[@ryanwilliams7600]

Thanks for this video as well. I liked your last explanation of teeth forward and backwards as opposed to lever open or closed. Your updated explanation is appreciated. I also like the different blending technique you used in this video. Seems like it makes the cut go a little faster. Great cut! As for the clilper oil I use Andis Cool Care 5 in 1 oil. Not only does it lubricate, but it disinfects as well.

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Thank you! Good to know about the oil. I will probably order some... didn't think about the disinfecting aspect.

[@meeksadorable9311]

I watch your first video every month when cutting my lil man's hair. I'm loving this new video as well. I get so many compliments when I cut his hair and I send them right to your channel. Thank you so much!

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Thank you so much! That is the highest praise you could give.

[@NatNatMom]

Excellent video! I'm on my third cut for my husband thanks to your videos, which are so thorough and detailed. Your little man looks so handsome!

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Thank you! Glad to hear they're helping you.

[@dimplezzz1988]

Thank you so much Danielle! You have been so helpful to me! I’m a single mom of five kids (three are boys) I’ve watched so many tutorials and you are the only one that helped me. God bless you !!!!😃

[@camiyo5215]

Fabulous video Ms. Danielle. You explained everything very clearly and concisely. I took lots of notes 📝 and I feel like I can tackle this intimidating job now 😁.

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Lol, I'm glad. It seems intimidating in the beginning but after doing it a couple of times you'll see it's really not that hard and you'll develop your own way of doing it.

[@rocquelpack1145]

Thanks so much for being so detail. I've cut my son's hair 4 times now since the quarantine and I watch your video each time before I start. Your the best. Thanks

[@DanielleLaShawn]

@@rocquelpack1145 aww, thank you!

[@latoyasuperville6686]

I have saved this video and watch it routinely. My son is on the autism spectrum and has yet to get an actual hair cut. I have been cutting his hair with cutting shears to keep it low. He turns 5 this year but I realize he can be a lot due to his various sensitivities. So I have been building up the courage to try and do it myself. Today was my first try. I didn’t attempt to fade, I only used a 3 guard to cut his hair down to help him become familiar with the process (this will have to continue for a few months to help him build familiarity before I can try anything “more involved”). He did well for our first try. My comfort helped him and I was only comfortable after constantly studying your video. Thank you. Some of us don’t have the option of a professional so this was extremely helpful.

[@DanielleLaShawn]

That's amazing! I'm proud of you for doing it. I know it can be a source of anxiety even when your kids are not on the spectrum, so hats off to you. 💕💖

[@seekeroftruth3343]

Wow my son has autism too that’s why I’m watching this video. He never sits still for the barber. I’m start doing it myself 💛 best of luck to you

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Thank you! I appreciate it.

[@rdot980]

After watching ton of videos, I know that "forward" = closed (more hair gets cut) and "back" = open (less hair gets cut).

Thank you your the best, simple straight to the point. Home barber movement ‼️

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Lol, thank you!

Love u for this video. I will get my son's head right. I might feel bad the first couple times. I know it's gonna take practice until I can match ur fade. - shout out to all the ladies tryna fade. Big hugs to the moms cutting their babies. This video was a blessing. Options, simple to understand & thorough. ♥️

I love this!!! Great job. I've been waiting to cut my son's hair....my hubby wants me to cut his too.

[@Sharon-dt1gy]

Thank you. I never knew that cutting in a downward motion helps with the fade. I’ve been practicing fading, but when I messed up, I would just do a low cut all around. He just turned 3, so in excited to learn now and be in point as he gets older

[@DanielleLaShawn]

Idk if that's technically right but that's what I do and it works for me. Hope it works for you too.
