This guy sounds like Bob Ross of Hair. Happy Little Strands

[@samvillahair]

He's been hearing that a lot lately LOL

[@haileym444]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I knew something felt familiar

[@kassandrakristoff148]

Haha that's the first thing that came to mind

[@tallisinwonderland4724]

Choppy layers? No I didn’t do this to myself at all during quarantine 😆

[@mak.9015]

i did. it looks so bad. i refuse to wear my hair down

[@drowninginthelake]

I wish I could show it

[@bayleigh1225]

..Same.... Maybe 😭

[@Messy_Mermaid]

And it definitely didn’t happen at 3 am. Lol. Oops.

[@tallisinwonderland4724]

The Messy Mermaid best time for a hair cut 🤣

[@char8996]

The fact that I just cut my hair during lunch break then watched this video is amazing

[@dianeellis-mcroberts9376]

LoL. You are not alone! I did the "Unicorn method " cut. Love it! A neighbor, who is in her 70's (with jet black (dyed) hair, told me I "look younger" with layered hair. Honestly, long, straight, blunt cut hair was easier to maintain. The upside is, after layering, my hair is now wavy!!!

[@liepaine]

i chopped my hair and ofc it came out choppy. i started to panic and cut more and more off of my hair trying to save the mess i created all while starting to heavily cry, since i liked my hair length (just wanted layers:(( ). i stopped myself and came to this video. thank you for calming me down and showing me how i can save my hair!

[@wolfgangproductions7402]

Has your hair grown back?

[@AH-yf5pz]

I just did the same thing but I don’t have much left to cut to fix it 😭😭😭

[@FocusBreakForYou]

this man is brilliant - I love his relatable and succinct teaching style - he is easy to understand. I appreciate his straightforward approach

[@samvillahair]

Thank you my friend 😎👊

[@richardmendoza4389]

I love Jesse's teaching style & enthusiasm. He's down to earth, & seems quite comfortable in his own skin. Love his hats, too!

[@Linda90503]

Jesse is an outstanding instructor!! His voice is so soothing.

[@jeankhn4621]

I have bad chops- a lot of stylists no matter the price would never ( in my experience) would never have the patience to work with me. Thank you.

[@Messy_Mermaid]

The Lord Farquad will be the official hair style of 2020.

[@tracyswearingen8757]

I love how he explains. So easy to understand. Thanks! (I also love his voice).

[@maria458]

You’re awesome. I wish you could fix what I’ve done to my hair!! 😳

[@veloriaustin]

This is the best to teach u the basics of cutting hair in a simple encouraging way. Thanks for all the great tips n techniques

[@andreamartin2953]

I love this Jesse's soft spokan and gentle training ways. Great information, thank you!

[@vitaminjovitaa]

why is this unexpectedly relaxing to watch 😭

[@carmrana584]

Hey Sam. Thanks so much for this video. The instructor is great too. Makes things so easy to understand. I just completed the choppy layer hair cuz on my instructor at hair school. She said I completed it perfectly. However I hated, hated the look of the choppiness. I didn’t even think to point cut those end angles how the instructor did in this video. Instead I went in and took about 20 min and texturized the entire hair cut again. And got the end results that I wanted. Thanks for this video. They are extremely helpful.

[@vanished3306]

This was incredibly helpful, thanks!

[@Algotube]

in 2020, i’ve dyed my own hair twice, and cut it twice. i think i’ll just shave it all off to celebrate a year of quarantine!

[@Selam-fr4lf]

lmao 🤣🤣🤣

[@letiziavillanti]

I legit went to the most high quality hair salon in my city and they made my hair literally like the mannequin but with more intense choppy layers! I went to another hair salon and asked if they could fix it to make it more like a 80s blowout hair, which is what I actually wanted in the other salon. She said it wasn’t possible but she could make something with her skills. With my last experience I refused and I’m probably booking to see another hairstylist.

[@Cissi2009]

It’s quite surprising that alot of stylists are not good at cutting and then blending. I have only found two people so far that can cut and blend correctly. With the price they charge they should be required to have this basic skill before they even start as a stylist.

[@steviemichelle7271]

I do my own hair, but if you worked nearby, I would totally go to you! Your talent and your sweet energy is so relaxing! 🥰

[@AreLL]

Thank you for the great informative video tutorial

[@jennyrose9454]

My hair is wavy and heavy at the back and it's never even. My kingdom for a good haircut!

[@tommcgraw2576]

Jesse, thank you so much for this tutorial. I love my Invisiblend shears but there aren’t very many tutorials on their use. If you could make one on blending children’s fine blond hair I believe that would really show where the Invisiblend really works miracles. Nothing else works like it does.

[@alexflores4925]

Wow such a great video! Thank you soo much.

[@lyndabales5437]

Just beautiful and will try and fix Just about all of my quarantined hair 😍

[@acpangilinan3026]

I'm already having ideas to "fix" the hairs I cut wrongly, I don't have anyone to cut my hair for me and there's no hairdresser near me so I rely on my blurry eyesight, kitchen scissors, shaking hands, faulty thinning scissors I bought online, and my plastic bathroom mirror that I'm pretty sure bends in the middle causing my reflection to be inaccurate😀 good luck to me y'all I'm trying to get a proper haircut for Christmas.

[@souhilaxa]

I love that hair color!!! what to do to get it exactly on my hair?

[@thereverend801]

it’s just the color of our Lydia mannequin with a Shades EQ clear gloss

[@amuratkazy20]

got a haircut by an “experienced” hair dresser and now my layers are super choppy and i can’t wear my hair straight 😢

[@TheAnarchyIsReal]

I wish with all my heart that I had this man here to cut my hair for me I know he knows what he's doing we have no professional hair cutters around here at all everyone is sloppy lazy and horrible they choo cut and take off to much and uneven and it's always a nightmare for me I have u even hair like crazy noone can seem to just make it all match idk what the hell the problem is but I am losing hope I can't do it myself or I make it worse

Beautiful Bob Ross, so eloquent and Buddhist vibes x

[@MsKeah19]

Will this work on short hair? My top layers are very choppy

[@MrEac3210]

Any recommendations for a stylist in Maryland that can do this? I have thickish hair and even $100+ layered haircut looks choppy everytime.

[@drrhelms54]

I wish he would have combed all the hair down .It didn't look even at the bottom.

[@vampiredildo8192]

Well that's because he's not making a full hair cut but infact just teaching you

[@amesie9384]

I cannot thank you enough 😂

[@gabisasmr]

I tried to trim my hair turned into messy layers looks kinda bad but kinda not at the same time

[@SuperAnn0ula]

Great video! One recommendation, if you don't have someone to control the camera you could use 2 cameras so you can record both angles at the same time and show the audience whichever serves your purpose best so the instructor won't have to readjust the mannequin's position every time;)

[@xxxxxx6512]

Everything came out great but crown layers came out choppy :/ wish I knew what I did wrong

[@Dianka.n]

I tried to do the ponytail haircut and it came out uneven and I tried to cut more hair to fix it because I started to panic it made it even worse I'm thinking of going bald it's so bad

[@lisapenny7069]

I hate The Rachel cut and styling but my hairdresser still did it! How can I restyle my hair while I grow this awful cut out. I hate the way the hair curves inwards. I wanted a shag cut but got a Rachel instead 😤

Anyone here after you asked for a wolfcut and the lady at the salon have you a bob with choppy layers
