I really like this video because you’re explaining to the woman why are hairs doing what it’s doing and then being a person also of fine hair but mine‘s getting thinner unfortunately I like how you’re explaining it to her and what she has done to her and how what she will be doing to her hair will be better for her And if I was her like she’s going to do, I would just say cut it all off rather than waiting for the stages to grow out I’m not that patient with my hair growing out, but I love your videos so keep making it thank you PS have a happy new year❤

I really wish I had a stylist who talked to me about my hair like you do. I am 67 and I’ve only had one great stylist who retired after 3 years. I’ve been so scared to let anyone cut my thick hair bc I always wind up with football head. Your explanations will really help me talk to my next stylist regarding my haircut preferences. Thank you so much. Keep up the great work!!!

[@calista1280]

I understand your trepidation entirely!😬 So, if you see someone's hairstyle that you really like, ask them who does their hair!? That's how I found my wonderful stylist in our new town when we moved.😊

[@Seriously_sirius2]

Show your stylist THIS. I'm your age and in desperate need of a good professional cut, but truth be told? I'd rather wear a hat or beanie or bun or hair clip or scarf or yep, shave it to within an inch of it's life rather than suffer through yet another 'bad cut'. Good luck. A happy new hair year.

[@sososo2445]

I'm in the same boat. The best people who ever cut my hair were men. Then they move out of town. I have thick, wavy, curly hair, that's kind of straight on top. Everyone just hurries to cut it without taking time to even think about it. Then I hold off for months because I know the next cut is going to be another wreck on top of a wreck.

[@wishingb5859]

Wow, I have never had a hair stylist talk me through anything like this. You did a great job and gave her exactly what she wanted.

WOW, yes, amazing hairstyle (and finally haircolor) on a beautiful Lady . Thanks for your great explainations, Justin. Even if it takes time to watch the entire video. (just a "before and after photo" would not have done the job as well). I think we do need to understand our own hair in order to take better care of it. Justin, you seem to adress to each and every hair on your clients' head in such a gentle and personal way! I'm 62 with fine and thining, straight, ashblond hair (keeping gray in control with blonde streaks). Wish I had "one Justin" over here in France. All the best to you and your lovely wife!

But to see you do it, explain every step, include all the options, include all the products, honestly and with the heart you have, is a pleasure to watch. I'm at work and couldn't watch it live, but I ended up muting my mic and turning my camera off in my Teams meeting to watch this. I shared with my sister who is a retired stylist.

[@cheryl_345]

Fantastic result. It is because I am 78 and my hair is very fine and thinning. STILL highlighting. Not ready for all white. Washed me out. BUT my stylist has never or anyone ever, spent the time you have showing and explaining what you are doing. NOW it is a mess. Blonde with thinning top and white roots. SO, I always do reverse. Have all dark roots all over head. BUT, then the top thin. SO I USE EYE SHADOW AFTER I GET HOME FOR TOP. THEN IN ROLLERS, THEN EYE SHADOW ALL SEPARATIONS. TAKES FOREVER. I HAVE POINTED NOSE AND CHIN. ALWAYS PULL HAIR BEHIND EARS. MIT FLAT ON SIDES. I HAVE WIDE FACE BUT, KIND OF FLAT 8 HAVE BERN TOLD. FAIR SKIN. DO IR CANNOT WEAR ABOVE SHOULDERS OR LIKE THIS ONE. ALWAYS USED TO HAVE LONG LAYERS. NOW, ONE LENGTH. NO ONE WILL FIX TOP. LIKE SIDES ON TOP TO GO BACK W/O A PART. SO, THEN HAVE TO TEASE. NO ONE CAN DO THIS ANY MORE. MY STYLIST 59. EVERYONE YOUNGER WANTS TO CUT IT. I DO HAVE TO SAY, TRUTH HERE ...WHEN YOU CUT YOUR WIFE'S HAIR OFF, I LIKE TO HAVE FAINTED. YES, SHE IS YOUNG. BUT, TOO SHORT. SHE L99KS GREAT. BUT, YOU USUALLY CUT OLDER WOMEN'S HAIR OFF. I DO NOT LIKE THAT. MY FACE IS THEN MORE PROMINENT AND NO HAIR😅. BUT, HER HAIR LOOKS THKRR THAN MINE. IT DID NOT LOOK THIN. MINE IS GETTING THINNER. LOTS OF REASONS I KNOW. BUT, YOU DID A GREAT JOB IF SHOWING HER. SHE SEEMED MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE THAN JUST A CLIENT. YOU SEEMED SURPRISED. I LIKE LONGER TOP WITH LIFT FOR TOP FOR TOP BANGS TO GO BACK. BUT, SHE DEEMED CAPABLE IF DOING THE UPKEEP. IF I USE PINCURLS EXCEPT ON TOP WITH ROLLERS, THEY BREAK ENDS. NO ONE WILL LISTEN. I WM 8N DFW, TX. I HAD A SISTER IN LAW WHO LIVED IN REDMOND IN 80S. MY HUSBAND HER YOUNGER BROTHER. ALL PASSED NOW. GREAT VIDEO. 8 D8 NOT KNOW A STYLIST WHO WOULD WATCH. YOU ARE EXCELLENT. I HAVE WATCHED YOU FOR YRS. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOUR WIFE'S HAIR SINCE YOU CUT IT LAST FALL. THANK YOU. BLESSINGS.

[@kima8670]

​@justinhickox it's great, please do more like this!! I love seeing you do a whole haircut & style. My hairstylist of 26 years explained things to me like this. She had to move to another state 2 yrs ago due to her husband's illness. We both sobbed because we had become good friends as well. I still get a little teary-eyed every time I go get my hair cut, I miss her so much. I'm so glad I found you--you explain everything so well like she did, you're a very good teacher. Could you do a video diffusing curly hair?

[@HumanBeingPresent]

I love how in depth you go with the hair analysis. People always say "It's just hair! It'll grow back!" But it is more than that for us women. It's so important! Its our crown and shining glory!

[@khouston1965]

Believe it or not it’s more than that for men too! I was a barber for many years & I found out that most of the time men are pickier or just as picky as most women!! I was truly shocked!! It was so surprising to me. 😂😂😊

[@bionicmimi]

But in the end, (and I’m a barber) it IS just hair that’ll grow back! To many it’s their crowning glory, true! But for others, it’s justa part of their uniform and something that requires monthly cutting. It’s different for everyone!

[@sharonmirtaheri595]

If we spent this much time explaining and literally teaching clients it would cost you four times the price of a haircut! A consultation is one thing but this was a whole different thing! Not practical to do in a salon situation. A first time client always has a consultation but it never goes over half an hour.

[@LaVonna3333]

FINALLY...a Stylist who understands that the guide plus the length traveled equals your length. Awesome

[@lorieblomquist7230]

Wow!!! Beautiful cut! Her hair color has new life! I learned so much about how to style my hair. Volume on the top straight on the bottom. Every time I straighten the bottom, the top will go flat. And now I know how to style my bangs! Great job! ❤

[@kamwong8884]

I really like how you do the consultation with the client - likes and dislikes as well as how she takes care of her hair at home. I also enjoy you explaining what techniques you are using and why. It shows you really care.

I get the same look by bringing all my hair in the front of my face , twist it and cut straight across. Perfect shag in 2 minutes!

[@karynstouffer3562]

Your lengthy consult, the details you asked, fantastic! I used to get griped at so much by the boss when I was working behind the chair for having a good consult. I may have been a "snail" in the salon, but I rarely had any complaints about not listening to the client. It seems like everything is all about speed nowadays. We are losing the art of listening. Love your videos! Edit: What a glorious mane of hair! Such a lovely lady.

[@Alaynas_art]

OMG, this is my hair type! Most people don’t believe me when I say I have fine hair but because I have sooooo much of it, it looks thick. The dreaded triangle shape has been my nemesis for decades! I learned so much Justin, thank you!!! The biggest problem I’m having now is with breakage though. I swear my fine hair breaks if you look at it the wrong way! 😅 Also, I struggle with chronic pain & am at the point where I just can’t hold my arms up long enough to round brush & blow it dry. Even my hairdresser teases that she doesn’t have to do arms at the gym the days she blow drys my hair! lol I typically just let my hair air dry, but I think that may be adding to my breakage problem. Some days I just want to cut it all off honestly. 😢 Anyway, thanks again for the awesome informative video!! I really appreciate you taking the time to share this with us.

[@spnkysy791]

I have that, too. Thick hair that’s fine textured.

[@flowersafeheart]

Maybe if breaking needs topical protein product to strengthen? But research it...I could be wrong. Also can look into if have a nutrition deficiency in your diet. And can try sleeping in silk/satin bonnet or silk/satin pillow, use the right brush or comb gently enough, not bleach, and use the no-pull type of hairbands or use scrunchie.

[@kathyf7862]

[@Toricworks4peace]

I have a lot of fine, wavy and curly hair. It’s a struggle to find hairdressers that know what to do with my hair. Watching your videos has made it a lot easier for me to tell a hairdresser exactly what I need. So thanks!

[@Grammichal]

I don’t have curly hair although I have developed some waves in my 50s, 60s, 70s! I have heard about a book called “Curly Girl” for ladies like you. 👵😘✌🏽

[@Toricworks4peace]

@ I bought that book several years ago and it is really chock full of information. It really helped me get my curls healthier. The author has some specific products that she likes, but they’re really full of chemicals so I chose not to use those. She cuts, curly and wavy hair while it’s dry and that’s been my biggest challenge, trying to find a hairdresser who will cut my hair while it’s still dry. They all wanna wet it down and brush it out and then it’s pretty much straight. That is, if I can get them to pay attention to the fact that I don’t want straight hair. Most hairdressers wanna straighten my hair immediately and give me a blowout. I don’t ever use a hairdryer.

[@aprilkendall2335]

I love this because my hair is the same. I've always struggled with the flat on top. Tangles are a battle and layers never fall right on me. I've struggled to ever get a cut I truly liked. This video really helped a lot. Her hair is beautiful. This made her eyes pop even more, and honestly, I think it makes her look more youthful, not that she looks old at all. Gorgeous!

[@JusticeDiggy]

I saw the length of this video when it first popped up on my feed and thought there was no way I’d watch all of it, expecting to only look at the first few minutes and then skip to the end for the result. How wrong I was! This lovely lady has the same hair issues that I do with fine hair, only lots of it, so it’s flat on top and frizzy and bulky further down. I’ve never been able to explain to a hairdresser what I need to fix the issues and as a result, my hair is now half way down my back and a bit of a nightmare to look after, and is super flat on top from the weight, with no style or movement, because I haven’t trusted anyone to not butcher it like I’ve had happen several times in the past. Your video was so very informative and helpful, both in terms of having it cut and how to style it properly. You’ve inspired me to get my hair made over, now that I feel like I actually understand my hair and how to talk to a hairdresser about it! Thank you!

After you blew her bangs out I ran (not walked) to wash my hair and blow my own bangs out. FINALLY I have the curve, control and lift that I have been trying to achieve! I am sitting here in love with my hair while I watch the conclusion of this video. 🩷 Please keep up these long style videos! And an extra thank you from us thick haired gals.

Karen was so eloquent and her eyes reminded me of Meg Ryan and at a point towards the end of the video she reminded me of Jennifer Anniston in Friends. Wow!... there’s some ⭐️ quality for you 🙂 Her hair only changed minimally in terms of length but the subtle changes to the cut, drying and styling technique is where Justin could truly demonstrate his styling skill. The finished style was great and I pretty sure Karen will be competent at recreating her own version of this look on her own. Justin may have found a new client if Karen doesn’t live too far away!

Justin, you are a gifted brilliant hair stylist! Your insight and instincts are extraordinary. I live in NYC and have been to countless "high end' hairdressers and none of them understand hair like you do. I have yet to come away with a haircut that works for me and I'm happy with. I've come to accept that I just cannot communicate my vision. It's like talking a different language BUT when I started watching your videos it was astounding! I felt for the first time I'm not crazy! This guy understands me!! I have even taken to try to educate the hairdresser I settled on (just got tired of shopping around) by sharing what I learn from you (you can imagine this does not go over well :( I SO wish I could get you to cut my hair but you are across the country (though I've considered it). Do you ever come to NYC? I will do whatever necessary to get an appointment with you if will PLEASE come here. Is this possible?!

[@alansgail]

Absolutely a beautiful transformation without huge changes…..just shows how talented Justin is! And a beautiful model, she’s lovely!

[@Grammichal]

And so pleasant❣️

[@vickireed1072]

I so appreciate both of you for sharing time and talent. 😊 Your client was very articulate and asked excellent questions. Thank you for your detailed responses and patience with her, which is all of us sitting in the chair with her.😉 I absolutely enjoyed every moment. Your love of your craft is inspiring.

[@danabinaz3173]

That bang trick was taught to me years ago by my stylist as “confuse the root!” 🙂…I use it for any unruly spots and it works every time.

[@mariawinfrey336]

First of all, she looks fabulous!! Thank you for giving me the words to explain what I want in a haircut. I had an AMAZING stylist, Darren, when he moved I drove hours to see him because of the way he cut my hair, it my cut would last for months, growing out perfectly. He never curled my hair but would only blow it out and it came out beautiful each time. Watching you cut her hair reminds me of how he would cut my hair. I just never knew that's what he was doing.

[@va1445]

It's amazing - not a dramatic change from what she had, but just a few tweaks and she went from pretty to gorgeous! This took years off her look and she is even more beautiful. Love this video!

[@darylsearle3474]

Justin, I enjoy this uncut cut type program. More episodes, please. I learned how to cut my hair DIY at home through your rubberband tutorial, but this month got my first salon cut blow style since 2012. I screen saved your images for my new local stylist, and got a positive result via images, communication and then managed afterwards with products you reviewed and styling techniques you presented.

[@raeedelman6958]

I'm speechless! I learned so much! Now I have to take what I learned and see if I can recreate it on me (once my hair grows about another inch). Definitely saving this video!

[@justinhickox]

You are so awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@RAPATEXWV]

Beautiful! I too have triangle hair and have been hesitant to cut in layers because I tend to get an even wider triangle. I now know more about communicating with my stylist and changing my drying technique. Thank you for the detailed information.

[@hildadelgado6914]

Get that poor woman a glass of water, longest video I've watched! But really, I've learned so much, and it's true the air brushes leave the hair frizzy! Great job!

[@barbarajean7208]

I've had the triangle effect forever! No one has ever suggested to straighten the full part and round brush the flat part! Game changer=thank you!

[@aprilwichman98]

Such subtle changes and yet they made a dramatic difference. Beautiful!

[@DNAConsultingDetectives]

I love this longer format, but the set up could use some adjustment for contrast and ensure we can see what those magic scissors you are wielding! Maybe a white cape? Let us see your hands at work. I am literally putting in Color WOW Bombshell, as you're putting it on her hair! LOL!! I finally got to the end. (not a complaint) Her Hair IS GORGEOUS! Great video!

[@lynnerodgers630]

I really respect the way Karen described what she wanted and the problems she experienced. Your explanations of what can be done to give her what will correct her concerns was helpful to all of us. I also have fine hair, but not as much of it as Karen. I really love to hear all the questions you ask before you begin. That is why your clients love what you do. You get on the same page right from the start. I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you!

[@rn2moms367]

I feel like he just addressed my exact hair problem! This was so informative. I have the same cut and problem with the bulkiness and the bottom as she had. Always thought I had to make more volume on top to counterbalance the bulk, but then, since I have an oval face, it would make my face look super long. Definitely going to try the flat iron technique on the bottom half of my hair. Thank you! I’m 54 and the retired hairstylist can “take a hike” saying that us “older” women are trying to look 20. 😒. All women are just trying to feel beautiful! ❤️

[@kimberdawn4424]

WOW, Justin, your intelligence and experience with hair blows my mind🤯! I turned 60 years old yesterday and have NEVER had a hairstylist give me a thorough consultation like you do. If only you lived in Austin, Texas😢. I finally grew out my undercut Pixie, after 20 plus years and I'm at a loss. I like having the ability to do more styles with longer hair, just can't seem to get my fine and thinner hair to cooperate.

[@jeancovelli2345]

This is my hair - same problems - fine hair and a lot of it in most areas - can’t get volume and have a heaviness - my cut is a bob - I’m enjoying this video!

[@justinhickox]

Thank you! I can’t wait for you to watch the rest. We talk a lot about what you’re struggling with. Especially when we style it.

[@kbtexas2142]

Wow, amazing! Even the color looks richer. Love it! 👏👏👏

[@merry6117]

Please keep doing more of these videos, Justin! You are a great teacher. I have a few suggestions that may or may not work, or you might not like them. I would have preferred to have watched you make the first cut in the back of her head and not watched her expressions-or anyone else! Also, a video on products that leave residue should be included, as well as how color can help or not change a style or cut. Thanks for listening!

[@taffianderson6537]

I was a hairdresser for20 years from the 70’ but I love learning from you . Thank 😊you.

[@DoreenBurkey]

Her cut/style was excellent! I loved how you took the time to share techniques and styling processes with her so that she can achieve the same look. Excellent mini-class with her!

[@sherryallred7621]

I would SO LOVE to have my fine thin hair cut by you! You have so much expertise and do such a great job educating on how to maintain a hairstyle!

[@lianablair1]

Same. Keeping this video to consult before next cut. I'm so glad he's making these videos. Saving those of us with heavy fine hair.

[@JustineMahon]

I have the same hair. Lots of fine hair. I am loving this video. Please do more of these videos!!!

[@angelasmith257]

I have same hair but course and longer like to see some more also…

[@JustineMahon]

@@shannonevans6344 Me too!!! It seems so easy when Justin does it😁

[@catherinewalpole6392]

Wow! You completely shifted the focus from her jawline to her eyes! Beautiful results - love the way you explain how you achieve your desired results.

[@nnnnn1610]

That's some talent. I'm impatient and I went to the result, then had to watch the rest... You nailed everything she asked for, drew attention to her eyes and made the part she didn't like look slimmer, overall she just looks fresher and a little younger somehow.. we all want a little of that. I wished everyone would listen so intently and come through with what you're asking for, brilliant guy 👍👍

[@Dee.Murphy]

I’m not even sure why you showed up in my KZbin algorithm today because I wasn’t even looking at hair videos! This is crazy, but wow! Great job. I love the joy in her eyes and I love the passion you have for cutting hair. You just got a new subscriber!

[@justinhickox]

You are so awesome! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

[@adgreene]

Beautiful cut and style on this beautiful client! Not to mention, she has gorgeous hair!

[@carolwisniewski6740]

I am astonished by the transformation that haircut achieved for her jawline. Excellent work. My hair is similar but I have significantly less hair than she does. My stylist does an admirable job cutting it.

[@justinhickox]

Thank you so much! I really believe that small shifts make huge changes! How do you feel about this long form style of content?

[@carolwisniewski6740]

@@justinhickox To be candid, I expedited the small talk. I actually double timed it. I enjoy observing the initial consultation to understand the client's preferences, followed by styling process, products used, and finally, the end result. Perhaps a bit lengthy. I am merely being honest because I appreciate your videos. Still love me? LOL

[@carolwisniewski6740]

BUT.... I'm not a stylist and I believe this whole content would be very important to one. I love to cook, so when I watch a cooking video, I just don't look at the ingredients and then the finished product. I like seeing the brands of ingredients, cookware etc... Same thing. Oh, BTW I bought a Laifen. I'm super happy with it. Thanks for that!

[@JannNewtonSewOften]

Yes, please do more of this type of video! I wish every hair stylist was exactly like you! Great job!

[@auntieree]

I used to be terrified of the razor, but your explanation of it's not the razor, but how you use it is why I stopped fearing it. I appreciate your explanations so much, Justin.

[@annoymousme722]

1st. Love the whole video idea of going through the entire process and explaining in detail step by step how you achieve the final results. Along with the do's and don'ts. You took your time explaining it and didn't rush through it or cut out parts of the video. 2. ❤ Love what you did to her hair! It actually doesn't even look shorter since you took the bulkiness off of the sides and back. 3. Her hair looks so much more, healthier and shinier. The color even changed a little bit, a richer brighter tone. It turned out beautiful and her eyes show up now even more so! 4. I would definitely watch more videos like this if you made more of them. Great job Justin! ❤

[@ericahlevine]

Now THAT is a consultation!!!!!

[@desertdame]

Absolutely!

[@Celias.mother]

I really enjoy learning about hair and how to cut it. Especially for women who are so afraid to cut there hair shorter. Keep it going.

[@kristinmouton2511]

Beautiful! Love watching you work your magic! Fellow stylist here of 37yrs.

[@justinhickox]

You are so incredibly kind! Thank you for your support, that means so much coming from a fellow stylist!

[@MommaOsoIrish67]

I so loved Florence, OR! My mom and I were planning on moving up to the Oregon coast just before the pandemic, then she was diagnosed with lung cancer and subsequently multiple myeloma. We never even got to make another trip to the coast.

[@hazelscott8885]

Client explained what she wanted extremely clearly

[@frances1703]

This man did everything she wanted! I can't tell the difference!

[@loh1129]

Justin thank you for this wonderful video. I really love this kind of content. Karen you seem so nice and approachable and your questions were perfect. The end result was beautiful. Justin, I loved hearing all of the little nuances that made such a huge difference. You are a true master with hair and I love watching and learning from you. The humbleness and humor from such a talented person is refreshing. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 😊

[@origma99]

I absolutely love this! It's so interesting to see how you think and work with the client from start to finish. More of these please 🙏

[@ked7426]

Loved the end result, happy client, and she knew what she didn't like. She also knew what she liked, you did a wonderful job interpreting it!

[@jade7878]

I love that you show her how to style it and style it the way that she would, rather than you, as a professional stylist would. Also, finally a hair dresser whose clients don’t leave the salon with super flat hair. I hate having my hair styled at the salon. So happy that I found your videos. I wish you lived closer 😭

[@irishmclass2042]

Your client/subscriber has beautiful hair! As you have shown, Justin, understanding first of all what look a person is trying to achieve and then what type of cut is going to give the best look, (and the cut along with great products), plus how it is blown dry and styled, discerning what areas need to be flat ironed. Lovely style with gorgeous hair! I like most of the Oribe products. Your hands are magic, Justin! Loved this video format!

[@cherylmartin1740]

Love the long-form video and giving instructions on how to style the hair after the cut. Great video and hope to see more like this.

[@trishhickson1550]

I LOVED this. Please do more. It’s fascinating. It looked fabulous. I have fine thick hair too, but much much shorter.

[@dianasullivan8583]

It’s great ❤. The before and after photos shows the big improvement, her hair has more shape, less frizz, more shine, and is shaped better to suit her face . I got thick wavy hair, and I like a shoulder length too, any longer it bulges, gets really frizzy, and makes my round face look bigger.

[@paulagurney9229]

This woman has the exact same hair that I have! Right down to the inconsistant waves and curls! Thank you for showing this!

[@lisadelashmit267]

I just finished the video! Wow! Her hair looks amazing! I’ve said it before, you’re on my bucket list! How do we know when you’re looking for people. Preferably thick hair! Thank you for the video! I can honestly say I learned something from watching! 👍🏼

[@judywelday9387]

I really appreciate how you ask the right questions and explain things we can all understand. Thanks!

[@christineryan7522]

Justin I love that! This may sound crazy but looking at the before and after it ALMOST looks like you colored it! It looks healthy and fabulous.

[@holliel0202]

Justin - I really appreciate how you are working with her to give her what she wants but also what you think is best for her. I'm learning so much on how to communicate better on my hair.

[@ohhellno2486]

OMG! JUSTIN! You are amazing!!! I didn’t even notice how beautiful her eyes and hair color were until you cut away the choppy bulk! Absolutely stunning!!!
