What to Say to your Barber for a Haircut - TheSalonGuy 

This guy didn't GO bald, he just understands how unnecessarily complicated hair is and decided to just not deal with it.

Me: "barber, I would like it to be cut like this". Barber: ...fuck that, I'll do my own thing.....

You should make a complete lesson of every concepts for understanding a haircut like every hair types with pictures, hairlines, different basic cuts to be able to ask something that the barber can understand like low fade… + haircut to suit your type/symmetry of face. All in one compact video without losing too much time for explanation.

Ok Steve-O the salon master. I analyzed and watched every single video you made ever. Going ALL THE WAY back to you first baby steps. I knew exactly what to ask my stylist. I told him with very fine detail. It took like an hour and a half to explain. After I was done explaining and referencing the each video with time stamps organized by your facial hair length in each video, the guy said, “Sir, this is Carl’s Jr. “ But I did get a sandwich with hair in it.

7:17 Exactly. I show them a picture or explained for 10 minutes and the barbers grab the 1 guard and buzz it off. When I said I wanted to grow my hair out. This barbershop did it to me like 3 times in a row before I stopped going. So hilarious. Right try to find someone on social media

That's why I am now cutting my hair myself, thanks to the SALON GUY - since having invested all the time and effort (one would need to acquire all the technical knowledge first) - in order to just EXPLAIN all that to a regular barber, one WILL inevitably become more qualified (than the regular barber) to do a decent haircut (for) himself at the end )))

just received the volume set, 25 spray, and shadow in the mail yesterday. Best decision I’ve ever made

Thank you for giving these tips. Last haircut I had completely unevenly cut the above the ear fade. I told my regular stylist it was an important cut as I’m going to vacation in Palm Springs. I wear glasses, so if this isn’t done well, the hair sticks out from the frames. She’s always had a problem with this. Before she worked on the ears, she had someone come in wanting to buy gift certificates so she rushed my cut and was a 1/4 inch difference on the ears! I was self-conscious about it the whole vacation. I will never go back to her again.

This is perfect. I was looking for what to do to my hair for hours, then I came across this. You saved my hair

Your advice and tips are AMAZING!

Went to the barbershop scared and left the happiest ever, just by using your tip. DESCRIBE the haircut you want. Which i did with every single detail and it worked really good. Thanks alot

This man is a legend

My mom just bought me the sea salt spray! it’s at my house but I’m on vacation, I’m SO excited to use it!!

As a barber who does a lot of different styles, your dead on about making sure people are capable. I’ve turned some clients into more capable stylists bc of their hair length or type, and some who have perfect hair for this style with tapers or fades, that’s more my wheel house. But the crazy layering and stuff is just out of my wheelhouse. I’d love to learn but am always so busy and never have time to really take it up and truly focus on it. So I watch vids like this and try to slowly implement stuff over time to get better at new stuff. But these kinds of styles aren’t easy at all.

Thanks man, all ur vids really help me out

I showed some still frames of the MGK hairstyle video to my barber and he actually did almost the same thing that you did on the video 👍

Thank you

Thanks

My favorite RU-vidr!

he looks so done lmao

Ugh I wish YOU could just cut my hair😂 lol like my hair is getting long and outta control so it’s time for a cut but I just don’t know how to cut it and it usually ends up being shorter than what I ask for. But it’s okay tho honestly respect to any barber out there 🙏

I think I maybe need to start finding another stylist for my hair. My side and back and nice and long but my front and top is really fine and not as thick. I'm not sure she is layering my hair properly. Its hard finding someone that knows what they're doing especially for men's hair

I was lucky enough to find a hairstylist that I like while I was walking around in a nearby department store

Is there a video about dry,frizzy broken hair?

I’m so frustrated. I just got my haircut and I literally explained to the stylist that I didn’t want anything off the top and they didn’t listen. I liked my length but I wanted to clean up the sides a bit. Long story short, they butchered my hair. It’s way shorter then I wanted it. It’s frustrating because I’ve experienced the same issue many times. What do you do when the stylist says they get it but then really they don’t? Never go back to them I guess. Thanks for the vid. I’ll be very careful in the future where I go.

Generally a stylists will take of way more than you probably want when dealing with guys. Not sure why but they want to take it way down!!! So if you just want a trim be specific with how much. Don't use terms like an inch or so....because their version of an inch is not your version im sure. Generally using the same stylists removes the guesswork but guys don't often do that. Personally I just get whoever is available so I've become an expert at laying down exactly what I want. Oddly some stylists get very annoyed and take it personally when I explain in detail what I want. You know....so what!!! It's my hair, I'm paying and tipping you and you need to do what I'm paying for. End of story.

I love the pixie shag it I saw in another of your videos, but my hair is fine. Is there a similar cut that will work on fine hair? Thanks

Could you maybe do a video on Lilhuddy’ early 2020 (till the end of May) haircut. These curtains are impressive and you did a video on a different haircut of him, but never on this one I’m referring to.

The problem I have with my hair is that when I try to get the flips only one side of my hair flips up the other side lays flat. Do you have any tips to fix this?

i live in a small town in czechia and there are a few barbers here, but most of them do trashy 4 dollar cuts that look worse, than if i cut it at home. there is one barber shop tho, that does like that skin fade type of haircut, but i dont really want a fade, so i guess that kinda sucks

You should open shops

yesterday i had a haircut and your second mannequin i showed to the barber and he gave me a mullet cut a and the top is bowl cut. im literally crying now

If you are too embarrassed to show a picture of a guy, show a picture of a mannequin with hair. I screenshot some pictures from this channel to show my hairstylist what I want to achieve.

This guy can grow hair, he just asked his barber to cut off a LITTLE bit

What should I look up to find reference pictures of the cut at 1:04 ? i can't find it

I just don’t have the money for a place like you’re describing. My mom pays for great clips and that’s it 😒 What should I do??

u should do a day in the life of ur job at the salon

question, at the moment i have wavy dryish hair and was wondering if there are treatments that can be done to my hair to make it slightly straighter. its such a pain i wish i could wear my hair down but it just looks like a thick tangled mess

Who else is watching this while your in the barber shop

I do my own

0:16 what's that haircut called? Someone pls

What's the haircut called with the middle/side part?

Can't get a decent layered cut! I'm in West Hollywood/Beverly Hills - home to so many hairstylists! I want a longer length layered cut but they either chop it all off or end up with a page boy/bob one length cut!!! I don't know what to do!! I have good photos of myself with the cut I've had before that I want but they just can't do it!

I have the M hairline shape, so 2 sides of my hairline lack of hair, how can i improve that

My barber, which is my cousin, always says that he doesn’t like to look at pictures because most of the time he hasn’t even done a haircut like the one I am showing him

how do i get the black one but not covering my eyes completely

I like how the timestamps are perfectly separated per minute

What is the kinda middle part hair style called

Man i wish u made this a few days earlier lol i just got a haircut. I got it faded from the sides and the top reaches about my nose i am tryna achieve the middle part should i just grow the side?

every time i went to the barbers to get my haircut out here and they didnt do a good job at all. So i guess i have to find a barbershop😅 thanks salonguy for all the advice

First time watching lol....

I get my hair cut at Mohler Barber College. The current price is $9.00. I've never walked our of there disappointed. A student will cut your hair under the supervision of the hair instructor. Once the student completes your haircut the instructor will throughly check the cut and fix up any problem areas. The entire experience is usually about an hour. I usually give the student a twenty and it's worth it. Sometimes I'll sit down and the student will say "Aw man! I never cut a white dude's hair before."

3:37 would this haircut last more than a day? (with half wavy and little curly hair)

I wish I found this earlier man my barber absolutely fucked me up

Incoming DM rate is 18/second. Nice

seriously come open a salon in miami

Is it ok to show the barber a picture of a fade haircut u want?

what do i ask for a 2 block haircut

SHOW YOUR BARBER A PICTURE ON YOUR PHONE Why is this still a thing in 2022? This was a legit issues guys had 15 years ago because guys were too embarrassed to bring a photo into a shop. Now you have your phone with you. Take it out and show them

i cant find any place that does the types of hair cuts i want, plus i’m terrible at explaining things. should i just cut my own hair at this point :/

One question: how ti get an even haircut?

This video is just what I need so I went to the salon this past Tuesday with great expectation thinking I'm going to get the cut I want ✂ I tried a new salon because the last Salon I went to wasn't helping me achieve the cut I'm going for after months of going to that Salon I figure I try a different one but unfortunately I still did not get the cut that I requested I told the beautician I want a blunt haircut she says it's an extra charge $10 charge for longer hair. my top is short my bottom is long I said ok fine. my hair was very choppy before I went to her she told me she could not give me a blunt haircut straight across because that would make my hair more choppier but im thinking like at this point what do I got to lose it's pretty choppy already just give me the blunt haircut and I'll let that grow out at least it'll be Amor even cut. She said she would have to take 6 inches off of my bottom to get it to blend 😖 I don't want to take that much of my hair off I was only looking for a inch or two the most 4 inches I ended up paying $40 including her tip still didn't get my blunt haircut that straight across ✂ cut im the one who has to walk around with this hair you saying it's going to be more choppier if you cut straight across just do it I'm telling you that's what i wantv but you're giving me what you want and what you gave me it's still choppy she also requested just dying my hair a darker color which I have been thinking of doing for a while because it is the blond that gives me that mohawk look and really stands out at the top i uploaded a video of my ✂ ✂ cut. so I'm still searching and looking for recommendations of a different salon. Salon guy I wish you were closer someone like you is hard to come by👌✂💇✂ ✂ ✂ ✂

can u do robby keene seasson 4?

What’s the hair cut at 1:56

When I have short hair,I go to a barber ,when I have long hair I go to a stylist, just sayin

One time i went to the barbershop. Asked for a low taper fade and trim on the top. A TRIM is said and this dog literally cut most of my length off

Does somebody know good barber in Houston, Texas that do this kind of haircut? Thank you

I Have Black wavy hair type and I currently have a undercut which I am growing out from the sides. I have watched almost all of your previous videos related to my type and I loved the idea of using thinning scissors on back and sides as it is creating a lot of unwanted volume. please reply if this is what I should do? also I a flexible hairstyle which can do cole sprouse's style, timothee chalamet's and zayn malik's long hairs in 2014. please help me out!!

Day 1 of asking Stephen if he could do a link botw inspired haircut

Been trying to get a hairstyle like this for a while but he always seems to cut the corners of the fringe way to short in relation to the centre of the fringe

what do i say to my barber to get those hair styles in the video?

Hey, do you have any products for hair like.. hair lock spray, sea salt spray and a round brush?

I just show a picture

I Really Wish I Could Have A Middle Split Down My Hair Without The Tip Of My Front Hair Sticking Out Like Demon Horns-.. And Also Without It Showing The Hairline I Wish My Hair Could Just Stand Out And Be More Puffy But Not So Curly As It Is It's Somewhat Wavy At The Front Grand Canyon In The Middle And Frickin'...Weird On The Back

Is it true if i grow my hair out itll change hair type

I’m recently trying to reach eren Yeager haircut . I haven’t got a cut for 8 months and my hair reach half of the neck level but because it’s wavy it’s reaching jaw level. My hair is separated in 2 parts . Left side and right side . On my left side my hair is more straighter and it seems more longer than the right side . But if I get the hair from the left and move it to the right ITS the same Length . But in My right side, the hair reaches almost under ear level. I want it to grow up to the shoulders . I should get a cut? My left side looks a little more fluffy . To be a little helpful , before I started growing my hair I had a fade hairstyle and I have a bulky hair . I should go to the salon to “correct” my hair ? Or I should go at the 12th month to make it look equal (sorry for the grammar)

i said to my barber, 'short'. XD really dont have any idea what to say. went to one salon, the barber girl?stylist? just decided what to do for me. that was the easiest and greatest experience for me. unfortunately moved to another state and im back to 'short' comment.

I go and ask my barber - give me a haircut. Then he decides what he wants.

2pac be like omg i want this hiar

♠️ French crop

Maybe I should ask my mom to stop taking me to great clips🧐

I think i will get a buzz cut and not deal with this shit

This guy is a legend. Didn't think of these things. Time to grow medium long slik hair from now on.😏

Second!

💚💚💚😘

salon guy is your name bob

I fish I found this erlier.

Feel bad for him because he indeed made so many videos just talking about how people should talk to their barber about their hair lmao

4:00

7:49

What should I say about tiktokcu's hair? I don't understand because I don't speak English

What do I say when the barber says “no” after I say “i have a few pictures I want to show you” I’m currently in this situation right now as I type this, and I just want a fade on my ass.

I cut my own hair.

Not sure about you guys but if a barber starts rushing I leave. I paid for a service by you, it needs to be consistent. I'll just go to the other barber 30 seconds away. Guess that's why our barbers here are good, we don't take shit from the bad ones.

"And your hair looks like mine, chances are you won't be able to achieve this haircut" hmm hope I won't be able to achieve that haircut if my hair looks like yours, anyways here's a Christmas present 🎁 IT'S A WIG !!!

God is good

Simple fix just show your barber the picture

Hey do you have hair cut for woman?🙂🙂🙂🙂

First

What can I say to my barber if I want my jawline like that lol
