This video is about state board 90 degree haircut

[@melanie3618]

Hands down the BEST demonstration of a 90 degree haircut I have ever seen! Passed my practical using this technique/method! Absolutely amazing 👍❤️

[@cynholloman3289]

Thank you so much!

[@shaeNObutter]

Cyn Holloman do you have any videos or can u explain the comb placement to check? Where do u place the comb each time to check? The lowest point? The part? I watched you do it each time but I didn't understand the reference point. Thank you so much

They need to update these exams so much useless nonsense for no reason.

[@AshaneShabree]

Right

[@latrishalandry2123]

I agree 💯

[@Alyssafiggy999]

I have 3 different teachers who’ve tried to explain this to me 3 different ways and this was by far the easiest I’ve seen it done/explained, you made this so easy for me. I have a midterm practical for school tomorrow and feel so much more confident about it! Thank you

[@Mandivargas_]

I watched another video, and it seemed like a regular haircut, lol when I was in school it seemed wayyy more layered is what they wanted is to do

[@latishastanfield6981]

Hi Alycca how was the midterm practical?

[@iluvbamf]

This is by far probably the quickest and most thorough tutorial I’ve seen. It’s backwards from how I learned it though, which through as me off a little. I was taught to start in the nape and do the whole section with the razor.

[@nicolecaban7620]

Do you have any advice I take mine tomorrow and I’m still confused cuz everyone is doing a 180 and a 90 and a 0.

[@cynholloman3289]

Thank you!

[@arnelalulic4974]

I just graduated in sept and learning the “state board cut” was... a struggle for my class. We got taught 2 different cuts from 2 diff teachers and told they were both 90 degree cuts. Then we all talked about it with the teachers and they decided well have s day specifically to learn the cut and we can video tape since it was so close to our graduation times. A week later we hear that, again that cut we were shown was wrong. So i kinda gave up trying to learn it from my school and THIS helped me so much. Like, got rid of 50% of my anxiety bc now I actually know what a 90 degree cut is. THANK YOU

[@cynholloman3289]

I’m so glad I was able to help! I am a barber instructor as well so cutting is my passion!! I need to up date this video, I just haven’t had time!!

[@cynholloman3289]

Thank you so much! I have been teaching Cosmo for 5 years, and for the Texas state board exam, my students do it just like this and miss zero points ,also finish within 20 mins. so I am super proud of that! It works! Filming it was a bit difficult for me, its like all your mistakes come out and even finding the words to say . This day was funny I had no power on the lab, thats why Im in a dispensary area and the electrician was just watching me!! I am super happy this has help you......... makes my heart happy!

[@gstutorials4808]

This gives me a different take on the 90 I will try it this way! Usually we take smaller more “beach ball” sections from the front to the back but I want to try different ways

[@michellew5208]

Oh wow! I love the way you did this 90 degree, I'll definitely have to try it this way. Thank you for sharing!

[@lds1230]

Great video! I now see exactly why I’m not finishing in time when I practice at home. I’m parting my sections too small. I test in 2 weeks. I notice you’re using your comb throughout the cut to measure the hair. Are you able do that at state board? Also with your last cut is it ok that your recutting your razor cut? I’m going to do my cut this exact way so wanted to make sure I’m not misinterpreting. Thanks so much!

[@cynholloman3289]

lds1230 yes you can measure at state board and yes make sure you are recutting the razor. Remember, State board is not about Technique or how you get there. It’s points on did you use the razor around perimeter, is it blended, and is there 1 inch of hair on the floor. Then sanitation! If you are testing in Texas, clean up but DO NoT throw your comb in the trash! You will need to give it to your rater to check. Also check for balance in the front.... this is something I learned this year on how the rater will check your cut. My students this year, scores on haircuts... prefect, it works....Good luck!

[@lds1230]

Cyn Holloman Thanks so much!

[@angelagalan930]

Cyn Holloman I’m having. A hard time understanding. So we do the 1in. Around the perimeter then you do a 90 and end up being way off your guideline from the razor cut. Help

[@AquaBaby98]

I needed this. My state board test is this coming Monday

[@AquaBaby98]

Update:passed on the first try!!!!!

[@Theneedlegirll]

Did you do this exact cut?

[@AquaBaby98]

Shannon P yes I did

[@Theneedlegirll]

Okay perfect! Congrats on passing. I want to keep practicing before I take my test. But I feel like if I do it this way I’ll get it done before 30 minutes is up which is what I’ll need.

[@AquaBaby98]

Shannon P I finished before 30 minutes and it looked really good

[@SW-nq1bx]

There is a much easier and more precise way of doing a layered haircut. Especially on long hair. Cut your guide lengths for desired bang length and the nape length. Part in the middle all the way from front hairline to nape. Comb each section forward towards the face. Have client lean all the way forward until the BACK of their head is PARALLEL with the floor. Comb and smooth hair forward, then cut everything in between those two guide points. When they raise their head, the layers are even!

[@barbaramatthews4735]

Tennessee says that you have to "incorporate " a razor during the cut. It isn't specific about it. I think I'll just establish a baseline and move to scissors. Tennessee also uses PSI. I think Texas does too. They are similar with a few variations.

[@cynholloman3289]

Yes we use PSI as well. And same about using the razor, as long as it’s incorporated somewhere.

[@ladonnaspencer340]

Wow this is the only video where I seen this state board cut completed like in 15 minutes this is awesome 👏🏾 Question: what happens during the other remaining time left if given 35 minutes to complete the cut? Also do you have to elevate with the razor for the 2023 cuts ? Thanks

[@cynholloman3289]

I do not elevate for the razor, and it takes a bit Longer in person, I cut the boring parts out and sped it up. But you can finish quickly, what I tell my students is spend the time in check mode!! Cross cross and take your time here, but the pressure of not finishing up the cut is gone.

[@ladonnaspencer340]

Ok great also I guess it’s soo many techniques out there but one video says to do a horizontal cross check but at the end I saw vertical… I wish you were here in Georgia offering in person state board practical classes… I am going to share your video with my classmates thank you again !!

Cyn Holloman Thank you. I appreciate you letting me know😊

[@xbuffaloax]

I am taking my NIC test again in Idaho after taking my test in Oregon, I have read several comments saying this would be okay to use. I learned the Aveda way which is similar with the 3 subsections but vertical instead of horizontal. Universally at the NIC exam do they just want to see and know that you understand subsections and that you have a uniform haircut? This one is great and I would love to use it.

[@caitlyncameron361]

I love this way it’s so much easier I take my test soon and my teachers told me all I need to use my razor for is the fringe you think I’d still pass with just doing fringe/bang part with the razor or should I just do it like this video??☹️

[@FavoredQueen]

Hi..La has so different rules on the 90 ,where not taught with a razor nor perimeter am I able to use shears around the perimeter section to complete the entire cut..? I think is a really good method of executing the cut ..Stumbled over your video Cynthia ..and I'm going to try..Pray for me ..I'll come back and update you...Thank you for inspiring me 🙏

[@cynholloman3289]

Check your CIB, Im not familiar with other states haircuts just the Texas CIB. GOOD luck and praying for you!!

[@FavoredQueen]

Thank you so much

[@quanandjd]

Can u explain how exactly u r measuring with ur comb. Which part is touching the scalp.

[@Stacyram]

Question, if I don’t get my hair cut correct would I fail the hair shaping by 1 point or do I lose all points for the shaping, look forward to your response. Thank you. This video is amazing btw.

[@cynholloman3289]

You will only lose that point for which you didn't complete. So make sure you get all the other points like, take 1" off, close your shears, and stay CLEAN!!

[@notsosweetyt]

I have a question, are we allowed to use our combs to measure and fix our angles during the test?

[@cynthiajuarez4036]

You had 4 quads correct ? I’m taking the Mississippi one. I’m confused on the triangle section you cut? I’m confused on where the four quads went. Then I saw you said you cut the triangle in the crown area but then you said again you cut the crown area. I’m soooo confused 😭

[@YY-mf4bq]

This is the best video so far! Exactly how I was teacher at school to do the hair cut.. Question : do we section the perimeter at the same time we section 4 quadrants ? Or do we do that separate ?

[@cynholloman3289]

DO it at same time, to same time.

[@caramcclure6591]

I’m in school in Maryland now. Take my state board in a few months. My teacher showed us this cut today and it was so difficult. This video really made it so much easier!! But she told us it was six sections and she cut it differently…I love this video and technique so much better but would I be allowed to do this instead of the way I was taught in school??

[@cynholloman3289]

Yes , absolutely!! You cut it your way! I did the barber crossover and when I tested my instructor told me I HAD to use this old looking razor. I switched it out when he wasn’t looking . It’s just some instructors like you to do things their way. I always say what works for you is best. I wish I could show you a better way to cut… I have made small adjustments to this cut. Always read your states cib from PSI and folllow those rules to the T!!

[@BenjiCrafter5]

Nice! I’m in high school that provide cosmetology & my starboard testing begins in April.. any tips or suggestions for me? (: this video was really helpful, the only thing that kind of confused me was the razor. For my starboard we have to use the razor up until the top of the ear, I believe it has to be used on 1/4 of the hair, did you do the same?.. If not can I use the same method until I get to the top of the ear? Thank you!

[@arissanguyen9704]

Hi! I’ve always struggled with the 90 hair cut for the top part with the way that my teacher teach me. Do you know if this hair cut can be use for California stateboard exam? My teacher has always taught me to start from the back section and use razor for three sections from bottoms up and after use scissors for the rest and she said stateboard will accept her way but I’ve seen other people from different school done the hair cut differently so I am confused.

[@cynholloman3289]

There is no right of wrong on how to achieve the 90 degree....Rules for Texas: as long as its blended, razor on perimeter, and 1 inch off( basically on the floor).....just get there, and what you feel is easy for you. When I have a student that struggles on the 90, I will cut it, then at state board they just have to follow my cut.

[@cynholloman3289]

Sept. 1, 2019 The Texas State board for the haircut "hairshaping" will change. You can now do a cut of your choice or continue to do the 90 degree. Some rules as the same, like razor around perimeter, 1 inch on the floor, and layers. I will do the 180 degree as it is easier for State board.

[@Batcave.stylist1031]

Cyn Holloman is it official already??

[@cynholloman3289]

[@amandah.2202]

Never cut past your 2nd knuckle comb and come back through section n cut with ur guide !!!!

[@mzwinniebab3]

I just have a question why did you cut into the hanging length this by far the easiest I’ve seen thank you just my school tells us not to cut past the parietal bone

[@cynholloman3289]

because on the sides it was brought down and not outwards...with measuring it, I know the length will not be gap. Now on a real person I would never do this!

[@sarahmichelle5183]

Do you do the razor for the perimeter because thats your preference? Ive never seen it done that way before

[@cynholloman3289]

The State of Texas requires the razor around the perimeter. This week I think I have made the 90 even easier and neater as I was teaching. I will have to make a new video, just have to find the time now.:)
