The Secret to Long Hair Transformation: Perfect Face Framing Layers

[@yikes7607]

I tried this and it worked like magic. There are more detailed tutorials with more professional techniques on youtube, but for people like me that have zero hair-cutting talents I can confirm this method is fool-proof. Definitely the easiest and with better results.

[@Elizabeth-yg2mg]

I cut my own hair and have been using this method for almost two years--it's the best. I saved the video and rewatch every once in awhile to refresh my memory. Thank you for teaching this technique!

[@justatitle]

I love how gentle and respectful you are to your client. Great ideas on the sectioning.

[@calliedayer6370]

I'm a hairdresser and these are great tips! I've been doing this same cut for years and it comes out great every time!

[@hayleygregory1059]

This technique came in so handy today when I had a super long length client who wanted very short face frame!! Quick, easy, effective and perimeter left in tact. Love and appreciate you Andrew and Sam Villa team ❤️✨❤️

[@veronicacampbell2601]

I'm a new stylist and I've struggled a little with long layers and creating a connecting face frame that is consistent...this video was excellent and I'm very confident now thank you

[@Littleartcottage]

Omg before she blinked I legit thought you were using one of those Barbie heads for your demo. She’s gorgeous. Also, thanks for this demo- so helpful!

[@Rozebunny14]

Same😂

[@MissBooMoon]

Your not to slow so I don’t lose interest and not to quick so it doesn’t fly over my head and really break everything down. Gracias 👏🏼😌

[@leojohnson3045]

You’re*** too***

[@mdasbriones]

Excellent job! I cut my own hair and it turned out great! Thanks so much for the tutorial. Your videos are not only for professional haircutters and stylists but for amateurs as well. Keep the vids coming --love them!

[@WithDiamonds778]

Couldn’t count how many videos I have watched but your tecnique is the simplest and easiest to follow!! The result is gorgeous frame to the face!! Thank you!! Subscribed right away!

[@danell74]

Thank you! I was able to do this to myself! First snip, I thought, oh god! What have I done!!! But seriously, it turned out better than I thought it would!!! I have waist length hair, so this was a great alternative to full layering. My face is perfectly framed and I have lost no volume /bulk through out the back lengths. Your amazing xx

[@samvillahair]

very cool!!!

[@pagelivingbeautifully8252]

I just love this technique! I have really thick, long and coarse hair, this technique is perfect for me! Simple and looks amazing! Really appreciate your teachings!

[@smilermc1369]

I cut my own hair with this technique and it worked amazing!

[@karenharton128]

Andrew explains things so simply he is fantastic to watch and learn from. Thankyou

[@mimicoolwhip5991]

Wow Im not a hairsylist but I so appreciated how you explained not only what should be done but why it should be done. I do go to my hairstylist fairly regularly but find I could use this if I wanted to try a trim at home. Thanks!!

[@annaholland8502]

Love this I do this with a lot of my long hair clients, it was so good to have a straight fwd very detailed but simple instruction.

[@melissaboone5661]

This is amazing. I'm in cosmetology school and have learned face framing. There are however more steps involved, but this is less time consuming.

[@annreba]

I just spent over an hour searching for this bc I used it to do a trim (on myself) a few months ago and it was effective. Somehow this video works opposed to the fifty others.

[@marilyn3605]

I can watch you all day long !! You are an amazing teacher!!

[@caterinaiona6397]

God Bless you!!! I had a terrible haircut which I did to myself trying to cut the sides of my hair. My mistake was not cutting a V cut shape. I couldn't fix my hair no matter what I did not even with the iron. I just followed your steps and I can now fix it in five minutes. Fortunately I hadn't cut it short so I had a lot of length still. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@MushroomAngel]

This was EXTREMELY helpful to me!! I’ve been searching for a new method and this is the best one I’ve come across!

[@cu4wur6023]

Just like Sam you take your time to explain clearly each step so it’s easy to understand. Some others I have watched whip through what they’re doing explaining just as quickly and you can’t take it in. Thank you for sharing 🇬🇧🙋‍♀️💇🏻‍♀️

[@samvillahair]

Glad it was helpful!

[@StarryGreen33]

This is my favorite tutorial on cutting layers for long hair. Thank you for the video.

[@kamfretyangdurharka2610]

I followed this method. and the results were just wow beautiful. thank you bro and thank Sam villa. you guys are not stingy with techniques

[@moroccanluv8810]

I alway struggle with the front layering! I love this video .thank you so much . Gonna watch a few more times. God bless you mann😍

[@kaymccoy7893]

So very impressed with Andrew Carruthers and his teaching techniques....the very best!!!!

[@jafrinferdousi9069]

Literary I am falling in love of the man most of his talking styles and smartness

[@ddee51-g2g2]

thanks so much for the tutorial on this layering, I've watched maybe 10 videos to learn but your video made it clear and simple. wow! how simple you've made it for me

[@dimpybaby]

Wow.. Awesome 😎 Love the idea of a V. trim right in the front. I always used to wonder why mine looked choppy.. Thank you ☺️

[@cassandraheersema]

I've said this before but I always learn so much from this channel more then u ever did in cosmos school

[@tereasarudisill7523]

I love how you teach, it's so informative. Well done every time 🤗

[@megalopolis2015]

This is so neat. Her hair actually looks longer now. It's like magic.

[@1theqtpie]

thank you so much. I went to hair school an never learned this technique. just cut my own an it's beautiful 🙌 (that's a hug) thanks again

[@aimeejones7038]

I agree misty. fab tutorial and he is so easy to listen to like Sam. Being left handed sure. times u struggle to cut layer around the face especially when I cut using my right hand. will definitely use this technique especially the standing position also used. xoxo

[@claireeileen1430]

I really enjoy your videos, both Sam and Andrew. I love listening to you both. this video, I didn't notice a huge before and after difference even though I know you cut the hair. I would say that is due to lighting. It's always clearer in real life. I also enjoy watching you two work on real models more so than the dummy models. Not really sure why. It's the same result, but the real model is just more enjoyable. Thanks again ☺

[@Hazel-qs1te]

Thank you for sharing, I follow your instructions, now my hair and face looks absolutely amazing

[@samvillahair]

Wonderful!

[@Roxsandee]

Thank you for your generosity "Sam" and "Team Sam."...

[@melissaannalmonte7346]

[@vickyskye8492]

beautiful! I'm a cosmetologist but you explained this is such a great simple way thanks

[@jessiemae9364]

I know im late. .but Yes! Im dying to try this! For some reason face framing makes me nervous but the way he explained it, it was like a "ohhhhhhh" moment! Lol.

[@manishavids4595]

thanks a lot for this ...pls upload a full video of easier way of layer cutting. ..

[@andrewcarruthers5414]

+Manisha Mishra we are working on something right now

[@emilybear1846]

Thanks for this video. I have fine hair and followed your instructions. The result was absolutely amazing! I actually have style in my hair now. It is the first time I’ve ever cut a shape into my hair.

[@UnknownUnknown-gn2ny]

I've been asking a stylist to put a shorter layer in my hair for a while now they all insisted would not turn out right. My hair has gotten too long and thick not to have this top layer! I just used this technique and I obviously didn't perfect it but I have a decent top layer and my hair looks and feels a million times better. Thank You!

[@gijoyjoy]

Would be nice to see a before and after/side-by-side comparison. I’m not really noticing any significant changes.

[@unalsafiye]

I implemented the technique and satisfied with the result one hundred per cent. Thanks for this wonderful tutorial

[@maggiemihaylova6354]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. It is so simple, but it frames the face perfectly! I'm now a beginner and this helped me a lot! Great job!!! :)

[@soniyaraj3875]

This guy can derive the correct equation of hair cutting and also prove it!!

[@pagelivingbeautifully8252]

Thank you so much! Saved me from a bad cut...! You’re a great teacher!

[@kimberlykane7065]

Love the tutorial a timeless look kept so simple with few steps, Thanks

[@meandlia3752]

Thank you, finally a video that speaks "common" language. I tried to watch another video and he used terms I had no clue what they meant - I am not a stylist or anything so I am not familiar with the terms of what is taught in school for this, I am just learning. So again, thanks!

[@Maxine2814]

love your videos so much, they don't teach these techniques in class. so thankful u share.

[@jinxmas]

His body position is so important to mirror. This is the correct way to stand and hold your hands.

[@jonicallahan7585]

Love watching, been a hairdresser for 30 yrs. recently changed jobs wanted a refresher !

[@toriibooh]

same here! i also do my own eye brows plucking them with a tweezers

[@bulgariancosmetics6118]

Great! I cut my hair with this way and it looks very good. Thank you!

[@hayleadeanne]

I’ve used this video so many times to cut my own hair. Always turns out looking great too 😄

[@mcd08]

How do you cut the back?

[@hayleadeanne]

I use this video to cut layers in between my actual appointments with a stylist, because I only go to the salon every 6 months. So I don’t cut the back myself unless I have someone I trust to help give me a trim.

[@elizabethpeterson455]

Awesome description...thank you. Been looking to cut my own hair properly and this demo was great😄

[@chessicahullum1872]

Hairstylist="We don't need to be baking our hair" Client="Bro that was a secret" 🤣

[@justicejane2429]

Glad I found your channel..Really informative, especially for people that don't have a Hair License...lol😂😅

[@klaritydawn]

This was truly an amazing video. I could actually follow and understand exactly what you were teaching here and that is Truly Amazing to me! The only thing that could possibly make it any better is if I had an appointment with you to do my hair. I'm addicted to watching your videos. Thank you soo much!

[@mayabanger9134]

I learned layer cut from this video...I watched a lot of videos bt in this videos hair cut very easy for me.👌🏻

[@everyminute4062]

Love the way you teach lovely 💓

[@voiceofhislove8650]

Best face frame layering technique by far!

[@rafaellec5135]

If only my hairdresser used the same technique as you! I had many short layers all around my head which would really make my hair look less thick, the long ends were very slim. But initially I had long and thick hair, so I never liked the outcome after the cut. If I would make a pony tail, it would look super short. I didn't like it! So I decided to let my hair grow for 2 years, and not use any heat either. It became very long and then I started cutting it myself into one layer. My hair looked very healthy, thick and long, I'd get many compliments. But I didn't have much movement in my hair anymore, I remembered that I used to have a lot of volume when I had my layers. So for a moment I thought I had to choose between volume in my hair or having long thick hair. So one day I researched on youtube and noticed that to obtain what I truly wanted I had to frame my face with only the front part of the hair and to leave the back part long and thick. I've been doing this technique for a while now but you're video actually helped me perfect it this time! I'm sure you wouldn't recommend someone to cut their own hair though, especially not a hairdresser, like me haha. My cut is not perfect for sure, but last time I got highlights I told the hairdresser I was cutting my hair myself and he was very surprised! So thanks for this video, I love how my hair looks 😊

[@kristelm.3812]

I use this technique on my hair too, as not happy with hair salons outcome, I do it to freshen haircut for face framing hair and also after bad salon cuts 🙂

[@jovy105]

I miss my hairdresser, I have been going to cut my hair with her over 20 years and now my daughter goes to cut her her with her. I will try to do this tutorial myself ,Greta video.

[@alistasia]

Andrew thank you for explaining step by step the technique. Fantastic!!!!

[@tiptoewolfyt537]

hi guys! i've been a hairstylist for about 10 years and just found your videos. i love them but i would really like to see you do more haircuts from start to finish on REAL people. start by telling what the client wants and what kind of hair they have. thanks!!

[@cijimarvel]

this is the best educational video ever omg I have just learned so much information about head shape alone. .... thank u thank u!!!!#samvilla

[@suzanne5971]

What would you do for face framing very long hair, longer than your model’s? It seems that you would not be able to cut to the bottom of the hair. Would you stop short of the bottom (for low back length hair)? Thanks...I love these videos.

[@samvillahair]

A few options for very long hair... start a bit longer on the initial guide, create a stronger diagonal cutting line (especially through the sides), or you could stop short of the bottom with the layering and then just visually blend into the ends with the hair in natural fall.

[@melanierose2020]
