How to cut perfect face framing layers for long hair 

These “how to videos” are so helpful for people like myself. I have an anxiety disorder of being touched, especially by strangers. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I don't know man she still looks pissed at you.

This technique is definitely what one would consider as the “foundation” to many other styles that many hair stylists wish to achieve for their clients along with the high outcome expectations from their clients also. Absolutely love it.

Just tried! It works! It fixed the choppy layers I cut from another tutorial. Thank you!!!

I think it's important to note to NOT move the peak of the part (top of the triangle) further back as you grab sections if you want to just frame your face only. I made the mistake of moving it back like it's shown here and the layers further back on my head were shorter than the ones next to my face. Keep the peak at one point as you add in more hair to cut!

Thank you so much for sharing your expertise! My daughter wanted this cut and I followed your tutorial. It turned out so well that my other daughter immediately wanted the same cut. Her hair turned out perfectly, too!

Omgeeeee,what an easy way to cut a face cut!!! I've been doing hair since 1989 and THISSSS IS EVERYTHING!😊 SOooo easy, I love it, and I showed my sister , who's also a Cosmo!😁 Thx for the tutorial!❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love this. I've tried 6 different stylist over 2-3 years and never can get them to do this cut. I'm taking your video to the salon. hair dressers never listen.

This was easily the best easiest hair cut video I’ve seen over the years. I used it to cut my 32 year old daughters hair and it was perfection - thank you!!

Who's here in quarantaine doubting if this is a good time to try this

Matt, this is awesome! This looks like a much easier technique of holding the hair than the way I was taught. I can’t wait to try this on a guest!

Hey, guess what!? I’m gonna do this on my self

I think this is a great and easy way to get those face framing pieces without even having to really think about it. Makes for a solid yet quick service. Thanks for all of your videos!

This is the best tutorial on face framing your hair, its simple and easy to follow, and the results are magnificent, I got better at tweaking the angels each time I tried it, of course you always need the expertise of a hair dresser but this is just too easy and for the 1st time in history my layers are exactly how I envisioned them, thanks for sharing 🥰

Thank you! I can't afford to get someone else to take care of every little thing on my body like most women, so these types of videos are super helpful :)

Love this! I'm SO picky on who does my hair because many do not know how to do this. It makes a huge difference.

I have very long hair and wanted some long layers to frame my face. Sae this and tried it on myself this morning and it worked great! I love how it turned out! Thank you!!!! Im gonna look for other tutorials by you foe long hair!

Love it!! Great technique.I can't wait for the one with side parting! Thank you!!

Absolutely love this technic! Simple, beautiful!

First video I've seen from you but very concise and clear. Plenty of angles. I'd rather watch this ten times than a longer drawn out video twice. Very good!!

Thank you for this video! I wanted to add some life to my hair and this was perfect! First time I've ever cut my hair (or any hair in general) and this really helped a lot!!!

Hey 👋🏻 thank you for sharing this technique. ✊🏼

Very well and easily done. Thank you so much for such an easy tutorial ❣

We learned the face frame just as you said, holding the sections low. It never occurred to me to hold the hair higher, parallel to the face. I also thought cutting at that angle would take out too much. Not so! How different Cosmetology Training would be now if I was a student. Much better, I’d say! 👍🏼

Unique as always matt

Thank you for this tutorial ,it helps me understand face framing so much better. Love your videos

Love this technique. It looks simple enough. I may give it a try on myself. Fingers crossed 😉

This is for sure the easiest face framing video I’ve watched! I’m a licensed cosmetologist & I struggle with face framing!!! Thank you

You’re amazing, I appreciate you showing us your technique. Ty!! :)

My teacher had taught me 3 months, but I got nothing, you teach me just a few mins, oh you wonderful man, I get it !!!!! Thank you so much.

That was awesome. What J wanted and did not get! Going to do my front myself. Did curtain bangs yesterday. Perfect! Finish the front with this. You are the best on you tube !!❤❤❤ Thank you!

I have cut my own hair since I was a teenager but I never seen that technique done before. I like that way better, seems much easier!! Thank you!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!🎁

Love it!!! That is an easy way to do it! Thank you for sharing this video!

I have seen quite a few techniques in my 65 years of hair dressing and yours is the best ever ..beautiful job ..i love it ..thanks for the lesson..

I learned that cut when I worked for Sam Villa in San Mateo CA. Before he moved to NYC . still face frame like this. Great tutorial and presentation.

loved this face frame technique,you explained it super easy thank you

Love it, end result is gorgeous

I've just found this video and tried it immediately on myself and I must say - this is exactly what I was looking for!! The last time I went to a hair saloon I asked for "delicate, face-framing layers" and I ended up with some kind of fringe maybe? Something that wasn't layers and added a lot of weight to my quite broad face. I have thin hair so the back looked flat and generally it was a disaster. I followed the instructions from a video but I did these layers just in the front and stopped the the comb reached the space around beginning of my ear and the effect is BOMB! I loooove it and thank you from saving me from the visit at hair saloon hahaha

Thank you for showing me this technique. Wow! I always struggle to achieve this result taking more time than it should.

i watched so many tutorials and yours was the only one that i could understand and execute. thank you for this u are really good at teaching bc u make it simple easy and clear.

Just tried, it works ❤️ love my hair now 😊❤️❤️

I love your tutorials! Thank you so much!

Wow I had no idea it could be this simple. Might give this a go tomorrow after studying this video a bit more because it's so much different when you show it on a doll head compared to doing it on yourself

I did a bad thing and this video helped me fix it, I hope you receive all the good there is in the universe

I am thrilled to see this so that I can communicate better with my beautician. I am so afraid of a bad cut… or just not what I wanted, which I consider a bad cut. But-that’s my fault if I don’t communicate well and it’s the beautician’s fault if the cut ignores what I asked for.

I love it looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

I really love it and wonderful technique

Great video! Thank you so much for teaching this technique. 👏👌🙏

Thank you for another tutorial that is so simple to follow!!
