Did this all make sense?

@dash_rabbit Год назад

Absolutely. I had one of these issues; that scrappy business at the bottom compliments of a stylist who over layered my already thinnish hair and cut too far back from my ears. (maybe noticeable in my pic) I consulted with a new stylist who is super talented. Since you can't ADD back length 😁, she created a blunt chin length bob that made my hair look full, healthy and amazing.

@daisyrosario3438 Год назад

Definitely!

@melissadobroski1981 Год назад

100% I like layered styles. My hair is just past my shoulders and it can be so difficult getting the right layered look. So many stylists don’t know how to layer hair so it looks good.

@donnafarmer3904 Год назад

Very good... I have a new shag cut... or layered bob, and I was checking my front to back layers, side layers and ends in the back during this video. 😉 I have a very talented stylist, a master barber of 22 yrs, who totally gets how to layer my hair. I went from a longish pony tail with bangs to just below shoulders with layers and bangs. Your videos helped me know how I wanted to transition out of ponytail/bangs to an awesome easy and flattering layered cut. How about doing a video explaining the shag cut and a "do this, not that" tutorial to rock that style. BTW, you are a treasure ❤ Thank you for your time and passion. You are truly valued and appreciated.

@Msmeohmy52 Год назад

YEAH 🎉 Perfect Sense! Technical formulas and explanations. I would also like more advice on a Shaggy cut (never a mu😂🤣et ) Thanks Justin

More likely because my hair is very curly and frizzy and it’s really difficult to manage and it isn’t long so options are limited. I let them do what they want. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@raraavis7782 Год назад

I gotta say, what I do love about these heavily layered and texturized haircuts, is that they lend themselves very well to air drying hair. On my thick and dense, wavy hair, at least. These type of cuts might look a little too 'extra' when carefully blowdryed, but if you leave the hair to just dry or diffuse it into it's natural texture, they can really bring out waves and loose curls. And when the hair does that, the layering suddenly looks *way* less extreme and choppy. Whereas the kind of layering and texturing appropriate for smoothened hair is hardly noticeable then.

@comment6864 11 месяцев назад

Yeah, agree totally. When hair isn't layered enough in back, I end up frustratedly trying to scrunch it just to give it more of that layered look, more SHAPING.

@mangot589 11 месяцев назад

Agree. I constantly tell my stylist, who has been cutting it for years lol, shorter, choppy, layers. Shorter on the crown. Shorter on the sides. All I want to do is shake and go, honestly. Now I myself, my hair will actually make nice curls without anything. She’s stuck on “feathering”. And she’s absolutely horrified with how short I like my bangs lol. They’re not baby bangs, but that’d be ok. I get a lot of compliments on it, so idk. I do have to say I have thick hair with a natural curl. Which I didn’t discover until I cut it short. I’ve pretty much always had long hair. About waist length. But whoo boy. I LOVE it short. I tell her, I don’t want to feel my hair lol

@SomewhereInTheMaidenverse 11 месяцев назад

Yes! I just had my hair cut and asked for a lot of the bulk on the bottom in back to be taken out. When I blow dry it, it creates a weird shape. Last night, I dried it about half way and let it air dry the rest because I was too hot to finish drying it. It actually looks so much better, and I even had it in a clip to get it off of neck earlier today and when I took out the clip it looked amazing!

I loved all but one of your "bad" examples! I love lots of layers, but not too long. Oh well, to each his own.

@dawnliphard9591 11 месяцев назад

I gotta admit that I “rocked” the 80’s Sassoon cut. Heavy straight bangs with a shoulder length blunt cut. I loved that hair cut. Crazy thing is as many times as I’ve tried to get that same cut since then has failed .😅 so I have stopped trying. Now it is almost waist length with more glitter highlights(gray strands) appearing every year😂

@reneetomlinson6295 Год назад

I hope you have something on longer curly/wavy hair. Everything I see is straight hair. I have too much hair to straighten, nor do I want to. So hard to find the right cut at age 55. I hope you have some tips or video!

@kathryngeen1447 Год назад

I don’t know if you’ve ever been a hair stylist instructor but your knowledge and ability to articulate the art of hair cutting is amazing. I never knew about the fact that there are styling rules or truths and also that you can take a hair cut and personalize it to the individual by cutting in volume in specific places all the while adhering to guidelines about where in the head layers should begin or end (i.e in front of the ears etc.) Great video so informative!

@AwakenedOne447 11 месяцев назад

I think your spot on more hair dressers need your expertise and knowledge of face framing. Instead of everyone being a basic cut

@Fern635 Год назад

I don't wear makeup and I've had the same hairstyle for over 40 years... so why do I spend so much time watching this channel and Wayne Goss? Something about attractive men my age who are better at girly things than I am - and are so smart and gentle about it - is just so fascinating to me, I guess 😂.

@susanhaupt7325 11 месяцев назад

Your spot on.. my last haircut looks like 2 haircuts in one.. hate it. It’s disconnected. Fine hair has to have long layers or none.. So disappointing always waiting for my hair to grow out because the stylist has no sense of style!!

@LJC123 Год назад

Would luv to c u do a curly girl bangs video. Bangs on curls r complicated, but us curlys deserve to have that option too! There has to be a way to make em work without adding a ton of maintenance! Would luv to c your take on it!

@melbyfaye 8 месяцев назад

I really appreciate this explanation! It means a lot to find someone who puts so much thought into the look, presentation, and “the feels” of a haircut and style. I’m fortunate to have a great stylist who pulls straight up and scissors down into the hair and then textures lightly at angles out to the side of my head, just like you showed. I love my hair and in the thirteen years that I’ve trusted her with my hair, I only had to use someone else once in a pinch when she was sick and I had a reunion. This was back in May of this year, and I’m still trying to recover, lol. Thanks, I’m going to be binge watching your vids til way too late in the night to see what else I need to know 😃

@angelamaupin5539 6 дней назад

Hey Justin, great reminder of all these not to do. It’s always good to go back and refresh your memory of everything after doing hair for a long time.❤

@cl5378 Год назад

Great video. After struggling with bobs and medium length hair for a few years I just went to a very short Pixie. Longer and messy on the top and close at the neck. As a 63 yr old retired Nana I absolutely love it. And I owe it all to you and your videos that gave me the courage to try a CURVE BALL.

@jmk1962 Год назад

Good for you. Shame you can post a picture here for us to see.

@Lynk1116 6 месяцев назад

You are so right Justin, I agree with the layering. I can see the difference. Now I need to get a good cut because I like layering and I need it done right. How I wish I could get a cut from you! Love your videos. I learn so much. Thank you Justin!

@deborahgiles8214 8 месяцев назад

The mistakes you point out absolutely make sense. The "mistakes" all make the hairstyles extreme or a bit odd requiring a conscious and deliberate intent in wearing them to pull them off and look edgy rather than odd. The examples you show really illustrate your points well and make even me, with no hair knowledge, get it!

@mystylistlife4199 8 месяцев назад

Good job on showing the importance of enhancing the natural shapes and points of the face and why. Im looking forward to seeing more :) I find explaining briefly to clients how the cut can enhance and add to the overall look really makes the clients understand and be more willing to try new things! Good job :)

@lorindav5549 Год назад

You asked what we want to see. I would love to see some hair with texture/waves/curls in the examples shown with all of the different hair cuts and such. I have a daughter with very curly hair, one with curly hair and one with some texture-y waves. My hair is soft waves. I know (oh, how I know) that showing hair with actual texture/waves/curls is difficult to find online and such, but it would sure be helpful. I understand, straight hair is easier to show off cuts/styles, but it's like very thin models showing clothes. Nice but not necessarily beneficial for everyone. Thank you for all of the effort you put into your content.

@NellyA1352 Год назад

Greetings from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Another great video for medium length hair.

@aimeelambert6342 Год назад

All of this makes sense. I have learned so much from your channel. I have one of the hair styles that is not recommended… It is a longer mullet kind of style, which is a little straggly on the ends. I finally found someone who does razor cuts. I have been looking for that for 15 years with no luck until now. I am in my mid 50s, but somehow this style rocks on me. For the first time in my life, I am getting compliments! I cannot tell you how many bad haircuts I have had in my life. SO MANY. I even got a compliment from my hairstylist friend (I have learned not to mix friendship with business, so I have not gone to her, but it was a great confirmation!) So Justin is right that it really all depends on the person’s personal style.

@BeYounique...Maryanne 11 месяцев назад

I totally agree about not mixing friendship with business (at least when it comes to hair). A friend was excited about moving on to a new salon after years of being unhappy at her old one. When I booked an appointment with her, she was thrilled. She gave me a great cut, HOWEVER, the assistant who washed my hair was in a pissy mood and threw a wet towel on my face. That was so inappropriate, unprofessional, and downright nasty. Plus I wear contact lens, and she could have hurt my eye. I said nothing because I was shocked. It put a bad taste in my mouth and I never went back to the salon.

@MrAshtonone 8 месяцев назад

@@BeYounique...Maryanne I am sorry to hear you had such a horrible experience. However, I would definitely have mentioned the incident to your friend. Maybe this was a one-off incident or perhaps this is normal behavior for the assistant and needs to be addressed. Also, not letting your friend know what happened may leave her thinking you were dissatisfied with her service, when in fact you were. I think it would be a good thing to share your experience with her since the assistant may be doing the same or worse to many clients and that is a problem for the clients and the people who work there - your friend already lost you as a client because of this incident. Just a thought.

@luciazafar9225 10 месяцев назад

You just explained so many consultation points in a very articulate manner. It really is the person wearing it, the trends as they come and go, and principles of cutting that have to be considered. 👏🏻

@libbyadler9360 Год назад

I happen to really like the short dark layered look at the end. Not sure if my hair can pull it off but it fits my personality.

@user-dianejcml Год назад

Thank you for this awesome video! You explain proportion and technique so well! I am kind of ocd about having my layers connected and flowing especially in the bang area....Thanks to you Justin, i am now using the right terms to ask for and my haircuts are so much better! I don't dread the texturizing cuts now.

@lubruscaidar Год назад

Great video! I went to a stylist that made some of the mistakes mentioned as cutting the front next to the ears too short and a bang that didn’t connect to the cut. The result was an aged look and I hated it. But at that time I didn’t know what was wrong… Now I know! Thank you for the video! About my hair, I needed to wait 6+ months to cut again and was not an easy fix for the other stylist.

@jillwalls9801 Год назад

I love those "mullets". I'm in my 70s and grew up with the rocker styles, like Joan Jett. My hair is naturally wavy, and lots of layer look great on me.... at least I think so.

@lindaaphillippi7015 Год назад

I wonder if people realize what all goes into creating a great hairstyle for people. Their basic hair, their height and weight, their lifestyle ( and what they will do to maintain it), what they want, versus what is possible with their hair….I considered every haircut I did a work of art. Communication with the client is key. And to explain what won’t work for them, and why

@zwatwashdc 9 месяцев назад

It is extremely difficult to find a stylist like that. I have found most stylist, at best, can do one hairstyle well. And they just do that style - usually Rachel from friends in the 90s - no matter what you say. And that is best case scenario.

@reneekh3599 Месяц назад

I have found most stylist don't take into consideration your hair texture (ie: naturally coarse or fine, whether its naturelly straight, wavy, or curly, etc...). They also don't ever ask about your styling abilities & how much time you want to spend trying to style. They all want to cut my hair as if its straight & not coarse, & that I actually have skills/abilities with a blow dryer & **want** to blow dry & iron my hair 🙄

@magentaswagg2808 Год назад

Menopause needs to be brought into consideration… big time layering and thinning in my styles since hot flashes started… still want long hair and don’t want to wear a ponytail or bun head all the time… short layers on top in the back help you get volume for different styles… but good point to be careful about a mullet!!!!

@LisaB_12204 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for helping us older ladies know how to wear our hair. I have fine hair that is receding a little bit and basically a little longer in front than back shoulder length and wondering what I can do to look more youthful. Also have highlighted grey hair that I try to keep cooler tones in but always ends up brassy and I struggle with shine. If anyone can help me with this it would be you Justin. Thank you for your cool videos and your love of nature. We need to appreciate our natural environment and care for that as well as our hair!

@KatieGoesPlatinum Год назад

Great points - I love your videos as you explain things so clearly and the photo examples REALLY help. (I’m a hair blogger but not a hairstylist so I’m trying to educate myself on hairstyles/cuts).

@inabind416 Год назад

Does anyone remember the “cap cut” from the early ‘80s? The stylist cut the top part shorter than the rest of the hair and, depending on what you wanted, left the rest of the hair longer. I loved it. It took care of the volume I needed on top ( because I have a round face with a small forehead), and leaving the length with minimal layers took care of not having width at the sides. It made my face look slimmer. I wish I had the courage to try this again.

Agreed. I want to be able to rock those loose, shaggy short looks, but I get a reality check when I look back at styles I’ve tried over the years. Everything from a pixie, to Beatles bowl cut, to long layers and waist length hair… it seems like choosing the right shapes, lines, & focus means more than the hair style. I have been for focused on style (Bob or shag) and not focused on what the shape and lines are emphasizing. Probably not a great candidate for a messy shag & probably not the right shape for me. I’m still on the hunt.

You nailed it on the head! It’s really easy to want to dictate your hairstyle by styles you see, and like, but working around your hair, texture and face shape is huge! If you can figure out a way to marry those two along with a style you like then you are really in good shape!

@janethagy8871 11 месяцев назад

I totally agree with your analysis and at the end of the video, with the fact that the hairstyle HAS to fit the "vibe" of the wearer. Thank you for all of your interesting videos!

Loved your valuable expertise and advice! I'm over 60 and have thin hair. I do best with the lift and some curl I get from layering. Then my hair doesn't look lifeless and flat. And when there's gentle blending with bangs into the layering, it looks more graceful for my face. Great inspiration!

@mary5827 Год назад

This video is "Justin" time! I'm getting my haircut this Saturday and we will be discussing my bangs and the layering! I have a high-ish forehead and I really love bangs! Except for the part where they get caught in my glasses 😮. Anyway, I will be sure to use these tips when I talk to my hair stylist! Thank you for the hints and ideas!❤

@justinhickox Год назад

You’re so welcome! I’m so glad that this came at the right time. I really hope it helps for your haircut! Can’t wait to hear how it turns out!

@MsM2468 Год назад

Oh my gosh! This is my dilemma too and I'm getting my hair cut on Friday! I hope your hair turns out fabulous 😊

@dianaballew6329 Год назад

It's important to be able to communicate to our hairdresser what you want in a haircut. You have given us not only the concepts but the language. Makes perfect sense structurally.

@d3sgrammy576 Год назад

Great video! The presentations of the different layering is very helpful. And yes, Justin, you are awesome❤️

@libbygreenberg4764 Год назад

Please include naturally wavy/curly hair in your examples on these videos.

@staceytaylor1502 Год назад

Thanks Justin! I learn a lot from your videos. Just wish I could verbalize this to a stylist so I could get what I want.

@DeeCee1878 9 месяцев назад

You are just adorable! Love the videos, but also love your personality. The little extra comments tell a real story of who you are, and it is just so endearing.

@evadefreitas9190 8 месяцев назад

Absolute true what you are saying. It’s key to any haircut. As a hairstylist I can’t help seeing these faults myself. You are an excellent stylist keep helping people feel and look good about themselves.👍🥂

@linafernandes9054 Год назад

Thank you for your informative video. I have fine and thin hair so I just love taking on any advice. I must search to see if you have covered this topic before. Maybe you could consider doing a video for the ones who were less blessed with lots of hair but still want to rock a good styling? 😊

@katparkermerritt Год назад

@Justin, Have you ever considered a service where you charge someone for sending in a pic and you recommending a hairstyle and color for them and their hair? I would totally pay big for that.

@patzumach3425 Год назад

I would also do this!

@cathyduran7771 11 месяцев назад

What fun! Thank you. I get what you're talking about. I think a major factor in whether a cut&style works for me or not is if it works with curly and thinning hair. The styles you showed at the end of this video were both on women who I think have naturally curly hair. I like both those styles, but the brunette at the end is probably closest to what works for me. Everything else you said so makes sense. Kudos!

@juliesibayan7962 Год назад

Great information, you put in perspective all of things to be aware of regarding style and shape. I wish you were close to cut my hair. So many hair stylists are not knowledgeable on proper layering techniques. It’s hard to trust just anyone.

@justinhickox Год назад

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. Layering is definitely a technique that is learned after school in many cases. Which is truly unfortunate in many ways.

@cherrildavidse2868 Год назад

Thank you so much for doing this video!! I have always wanted the "right" medium cut but always ended up with the "wrong" one. When explaining what I wanted from the length of the front, crown and bottom, I've always gotten " I know what I'm doing" vibe. It has gotten to the point where I no longer go to a salon, my hair is now basically one length and I do my own trims and shaping. I'm now an older woman and I'm finally happy with how my hair looks every day!

@lisasommerlad1337 Год назад

When we cut our own hair, at least we listen to what we want, and are not offended when it doesnt look quite right yet.

@saraaronzon4562 Год назад

Exactly!

@justinhickox Год назад

Thank you! I try to laugh as often as possible, usually it ends up being at myself! Lol

@oliveoil2x Год назад

Had a thought for a possible video topic: hair for your personality style. Might be cool to get some opinions on what might suit a free spirited type, or a bookish type, a professional office vibe, vs. hippie style, etc.. I know that’s very subjective; however, there are factors like convenience or practicality, or just what a hair style is communicating upon a first impression. While shape, texture and color dictate some hairstyles over others, it could be helpful/fun to have a few examples of hair types for life styles and what they say (strong, weak, approachable, high maintenance, casual or carefree). I know that’s a lot of opinion based stuff- but we’re online for many opinions & thats why we like your channel, you give it to us strait. 👍🏻

@yolita21 Год назад

Thank you for this video. Right on time. I have thick curly hair, but when I wear it straight, it’s nice. I’m wearing a shoulder length bob right now but I’ve been debating on having my hairdresser take out the bulk from the bottom of the bob. It’s too thick in that area. It’s either that or long layer the bob.🤷🏻‍♀️

@justinhickox Год назад

You can definitely take Buck out of the bottom if you’re wearing it curly or wavy. If you remove bulk, just ensure that you don’t remove too much around the ears were in front of the ears is that’s where I can start to get almost thin looking.

@Dogandcatmom51 10 месяцев назад

The one at the end with the dark hair doing all of the wrong things looks amazing! She does rock it. I love haircuts like that.

@Dogandcatmom51 10 месяцев назад

It’s so much harder with curly hair to get it right. It’s either too thin on the bottom or too bulky .

@vzeimen Год назад

This makes me realize that what I want in a hair cut is all the wrong things and I still want it. I like my hair length to be just above my shoulders and I do have bangs and layering throughout. I always feel like I want shorter layers on top even though I know it might not match up to the other layers. I don't even care. I just need more life on the top part of my head, more fluff totally changes the shape of my round face and I NEED that. My hairstylist won't do that, probably for the reasons explained here. How do I get the volume on top and still have a good haircut? I have thin hair strands but a lot of hair and very very straight but I usually curl it with a round brush.

@tallisinwonderland4724 Год назад

Have you tried a little bit of back combing and texturising spray. I have really thick hair but it’s always flat at the crown. I bought a back combing brush or teasing brush as I’ve heard American ladies call it and back comb underneath and then smooth out the top layer. It makes my face look less round 😂

@CristinaJacksonLMT 11 месяцев назад

Try that wolf or butterfly cut.

@janewhitaker1631 11 месяцев назад

I really wish you would do something for those of us who have curly hair and don’t want to straighten it. All the hairstyles are for straight hair. It is a struggle for those of us who prefer to keep our curls.

@tinamenard4365 Год назад

Justin your videos are so informative and made me realize a lot of stuff about hairstyles and cutting layers or not layers. Thank you so much

@herbalina Год назад

Very helpful. I've become leery of layers but I'm still considering getting curtain bangs. If I do, I'll be sure to ask that they be connected to the rest of my hair. Thanks for the tips!

@justinhickox Год назад

I don’t blame you, Larin can be your best friend or your worst enemy! If you do curtain bangs, make sure you like the idea of the center part, and that it works for your face shape and hair texture. If not curtain bangs can be a struggle for people.

@susanpharr6809 Год назад

It has been really difficult to communicate effectively to a hairdresser what exactly I have ever wanted. Lacking the right vocabulary and a little shyness or intimidation has always gotten in the way. Your videos really dispel some of the issues. I usually cut my own hair, and your guidance is really so helpful! Reassuring! The last two cuts that ‘break’ the layering rules do NOT appeal to me - don’t seem to really work. They look way too shaggy, stringy and a bit too fussy and labor intensive to achieve and maintain the rather intended wind blown or messy look. It truly is quite a dance of grace and elegance and expertise to watch you bring about the best hair design and cut every time! Since the pandemic I have let my hair grow long and longer! Gradually I am allowing the natural ‘halo’ of silvery tendrils frame my otherwise light to medium brown locks. Now…I love the trailing length, but question how much if any trimming - yearly - will not compromise the romance I am having with long hair!

@wkt2506 10 месяцев назад

Agree - this video is also really useful if you've got an idea what style you want, then you can look at a hairstylist's work with a more discerning eye so you know what your looking for and you can see what they've done previously. I'm pretty sure that most stylists have certain go-to ways of cutting and especially with newer less classic styles some stylists just wouldn't know where to start, might try and give you what you want but without experience its really hit & miss. Obviously it depends on the individual stylists skills, education, continuing training, era, analytical skills, experience with your hair type etc.

@BeYounique...Maryanne 11 месяцев назад

Fabulous video! (The model at 11:27 looks amazing; so true she's rocking the look). Several years ago a stylist did the thing to me where she made the bottom layers too thin. I felt like Carol Brady of The Brady Bunch. I hated it, and it's not what I wanted. The stylist was more concerned with her phone call than what she was doing to my hair. I ended up going somewhere else, and getting it cut super short to correct her mess. Thank goodness my hair grows like weeds! 😺
