The Secret to Long Hair Transformation: Perfect Face Framing Layers 

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.

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!

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 ❤️✨❤️

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!

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 👏🏼😌

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!

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!

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

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

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

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

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

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!

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

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

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

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

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😍

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!

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 🇬🇧🙋‍♀️💇🏻‍♀️

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

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.

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

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

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.

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!!

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

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

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

Oh that's great!My b-day is in 3 days also and I'd like to give myself a makeover before I see that special person on my birthday day,you know

I've been cutting and coloring my own hair since I was 15. I can't wait to try these!!

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

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

Awesome technique and signature series scissor 7 inch and yes no words to thank you Andrew sir ...thank you ... once again

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 ☺

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

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.

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

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!

Just can't keep my eyes of the girl lol she has a beautiful smile

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

Keep the tips coming. Andrew I love the way you explain things. Ur definitely one of my favs

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!!! :)

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

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

Great tute! He explains his steps simply, yet thoroughly.

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

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

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!

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.

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

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.

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 😊

Awesome amazin it's very easy hairstyle thank you so much sir

He is great! I just love how descriptive he is. He makes it easy to understand.

Best face frame layering technique by far!

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

Impressive! Most informative/descriptive video I have ever viewed on this topic.. BRAVO!

10/10 content explained so well and showed us every step i love it!

Awesome 👏. I love the way simple you defined this beautiful hair cut 💇‍♀️

Aww he was so sweet. We need more hairstylist like him. I was leave with a sour taste in my mouth after dealing with any public service here in California

Glad i saw this video because i'm planning to cut my daughter's hair with this style... V-shaped, in layers. Thanks for sharing 😊

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

Excellent tutorial. She's very pretty and her hair is beautiful, so that cut worked really well

i was searching fr a awsm haircut and i found one...thanx bud..

I really enjoy watching the Sam Villa tutorials

Wow! Thank you! This teacher was excellent!!! Love the narration, very clear cut (pun intended)

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

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

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

This was really good, I'm going to watch this a few more times to get it down

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!!

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

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

I thought she was a doll!!

You've made this haircut attainable, thank you

Love the way you teach lovely 💓

I am using the same technique to cut my own hair. And i look fantabulous in this style.. thanks a tonnnnnnn🥰

Amazing hair cut .... To much easy 💇 I love it 🎶🙏😍🌹😊❤ 🌠 om shanti thanks to teach us sir

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

Great thorough and detailed tutorial!

Thanks for the new technique. Looks fool proof. Nice and easy.

I like your techniques, very clear.

One of the best tutorial... very clear... very nice😍😍😍😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Really great tutorial! I find that the way I learned to cut layers like this for the face was very difficult for me, and not easy on my hands, but this looks much easier, and less painful for your hands. ^^' The results are also very pretty. The layers are beautiful and look great for her face. Also, a happy birthday to her! :D I hope she enjoys is! Once again, thanks for a great tutorial. ^^

Very good technique. This is the first time I saw smth do this V in the front like you👍👍👍👍👍👍

OMG 2019 AND THIS IS THE EASIEST WAY I SWEAR

Did my bangs. Thank you.

This is really a brilliant Tutorials. one of the bests I've seen. Well done. certainly got me to subscribed immediately

Does this apply to very wavy hair like mine. I cut my own hair. Well I get it professionally done once a year. My photo on here is from this summer after I did it myself. I think I need more height and more layers around my face.

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.
