Women with THIN FINE hair LOVE this Haircut (I can see why!) 

Hey Gabi, a couple things; Great video And I am a 45y female with a scar where my cowlic was, than spans about a 3 in diameter. Plus fine, curly hair 2c and 3a, length to past the bra line. Usually wear it in an offset braid, to ensure coverage of the scar/hairless area. Been a year and a half since a trim, because I need help with knowing what's best. I am scheduled for a consult to possibly expand the skin and remove the scar(lupus related). Any suggestions?

Love these cuts! MY problem is very damaged and very bad thinning at the top of my head, caused by a bad dye job gone bad 😱! And, no matter what I do to my sides, which I part to the left, I have barely any top hair left. I have tried parting from left to right , middle, just about everything. Nothing can be done for me now. Soooo embarrassing! Good video, though. 👍🙂🙂

Hi GABI, Iam desperately looking for a great stylist like you. Where is your salon located??

Can this style work cut a bit longer? I have fine hair but don’t like having short hair.

@@angelmoonlighttarot3681 yup!! I have my hair cut the same but its a lob (long bob). The shorter the bob, the thicker it looks though.

I have super fine thin hair and I like a blunt Bob but my stylist always goes back in with thinning shears and takes all the weight out. Drives me crazy

Just had a haircut, she did all of these wrong things... ugh. I am cutting my own hair from now on, no luck with a stylist so far

I am currently preparing to study Cosmetology in Southern California, and I should be licensed in California by June of 2025!! I Also have very fine, thin hair, and I have a jawbone length bob haircut, and I am looking to grow my hair into a Middy Bob!!

Ditto! Been there!

Good thing you looked at them crazy, lol bc you’re supposed to do a blunt cut with fine hair 🤦🏽‍♀️ (professional opinion)

I totally understand the struggle. The thing is that layers DO give volume on the crown but it doesn't matter if you have no baseline. The most important thing when working with fine hair is to keep the baseline strong or you lose the entire structure of the cut. Some people literally cannot have layers! I'm sorry that you have had some frustrating experiences.

Exactly Aashpreet , it’s SO frustrating 🤬🤬

It’s been my experience that most hairdressers don’t know what to do with fine thin hair.

Why wouldn't she do it? That is so bizarre. I almost wonder if her ego got bruised because you suggested something that she may not be as familiar with.

​@@GlamGirlGabi First - love, love, love your video. You totally get it about thin, fine hair. Thank you for your reply. So many time I've requested a slight cut angle and want a little shorter in the back like you explained. You are point on. Anyway, my hairdresser said a simple blunt cut is too difficult to get straight. Huh? She also would not highlight the way I asked. You couldn't even tell I had highlights after paying $190!! She said I didn't know what was in and heavy highlighting was out. So...I'm trying to find a new hair stylist and it is difficult in the town I live. I try to be subtle and non offensive, but I know what is best for my thin, fine hair and it is exactly what you've said in your video. Can you say where you studio is; if possible I would fly to you and have you cut my hair. I am desperate for a good hairdresser for thin, fine hair.

​@@GlamGirlGabi Oh my Gabi. So it took me another 6 months to find a new hairdresser. By this time my hair had grown so it would be easy to do a blunt bob. I explained how I wanted it cut; she commented that she had been cutting hair for 20 years and she would do a good job. She also highlighted my hair. I wanted golden blond highlights; no ash. What did I get? Ash. So... the cut. I even asked if she wanted to see the video which I had transferred to my phone. Answered no. She started with the back. The first chop she started cutting in and layering. My breath stopped and I said I thought we understood I wanted it all one length. As she continued to cut, she said I don't know how to cut straight across. Result: a layered haircut! Devastated. I'll have to wait another year for it to grow. I live in a town of 350,000 but can't find a hairdresser who will listen. I'm ready to fly to your state just to get a good haircut. Are you on west coast, east coast, or middle of America?

@@jazz901 she’s in Canada

@@theescaperoom1113 Oh bummer. But thank you for that information.

5th 3rd bank

They won't. Dinosaurs

Thank you for this notessss!!!

@@virgygonzalez7312Guess what, I loved the results after getting a cut with these instructions. A year later recently, I forgot to remind the same hairstylist with these notes and I hated the outcome 🙃

@vltree wow!!! I'm glad you like it. I'm just too scared that is so short, I always had medium length hair. I will try to do it just over my shoulder and see if works. Thank youuu

My stylist would have a hissy fit. So sensitive.

Hi, nice to know that he does this hair cut. Love him, beautiful person as well.

It is fantastic isn't it! Such an easy cut and PERFECT for fine hair girls. Looks chic as hell too!

I am 83 thin silver hair round face although losing weight high forehead

I totally agree!

So sorry! Did you pay her?

I can so relate. It's so maddening. Who in the world created this idea/style of "cutting in" anyway? Obviously a moron. It looks like a bad shaggy haircut! Grrr. So sorry you are having he same experience I am having.

@@jazz901 I've watched this for the first time and it's the only instructions I've ever seen to cut my hair the way it should be cut. I've given up on hairdressers who NEVER get it right for me and I end up disgusted and sometimes in tears. I'm seventy and I have never found a hairdresser for me. Maybe I can get one to watch the video and attempt it for me. Good luck with ours and many others shared problem.

Wow you are so right they pretend sometimes that they no what you are asking for but don’t get it right. 😢

That is such a sweet comment and completely made my day. Thank you so much for being so supportive. It means the world to me!

What a sweet comment. Thank you for taking the time to write that.

Hey Claudia! I’m so impressed that you’re able to cut your own hair! I tried to cut my own bob once and it was an absolute disaster lol! I can’t get the angle right on myself and it doesn’t help that I’m such an insane perfectionist. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. It means a lot to me.

Amazing what people give up on. Many States charge senior citizens NO tuition for community college, State college, and State University classes. Most only allow non-tuition paying senior citizens to 'audit' classes. However, depending on State licensing requirements, passing a State licensing test may be enough to qualify for some kinds of State licensed. The places to enquire include the State Secretary of State's Office (usually in charge of professional licensing), State Department of Education, and the campuses if interest. Often, benefits are included such as access to the Student Placement Office and free versions of student computer programs for downloading. The medical community is warning women that women ought to be preparing now to live to be 100. Of your potential 38 years of longevity, 35 might turn out to be far more active than you expect. You might consider whether your retirement budget is set up for that. Licensed hair dressers volunteer once a month at women's and family homeless shelters and cut hair in nursing homes and private homes for fees and tips. S.C.O.R.E. (Service Corps of Retired Executives) hand train individuals fir free in hie to create and manage a small business. Community college, college, and university classes can include auditing public relations classes in journalism or Communication to learn self promotion. Senior citizens are frequently found in the studio art classes, photography classes, literature classes, and history classes. Classes are selected in consultation with advisors who assure that campus requirements are satisfied. You might reconsider at 67, if you become bored in retirement once you get several years of rest and see how your budget developes.

It is never too late, I finished my associates degree at 61! Even if you never use it for employment, do if for the pleasure of learning and fulfilling your dream. Maybe God is nudging you to do it!

@@nancy9478 And check on State community college, college, and university fee discount programs for retirees and the disabled. The typical offer is retirees being able to "audit" for free. This is to add mature experience to class discussions, so basically the school gets you for free, and you get the school for free. Maryland is in the minority of States that allows retirees to take for credit undergraduate and graduate courses for a few hundred dollars instead of for thousands of dollars. Retirees are allowed to earn degrees through Maryland discount programs for retirees. If your County runs the community colleges rather than the State, check on their discounts for retirees and the disabled. Our County in Maryland runs a multiple campus community college system that allows those on Social Security retirement or disability to pay only the registration fee and lab material fee while paying NO tuition. Also, be certain to visit the Student Placement Services Office and read their webpage on the school website to discover what they can do for you free. They keep an elite job list of employers who prioritize hiring part or full time with college experience. The most typical deal is that you get lifetime access to Student Placement Office services free for your lifetime upon earning 15 credits. Furthermore, ask Registration and Library Staff whether the school has a free computer download program. These are common. You might be entitled to about $500 worth of free computer programs for your home computer or laptop free as soon as you are given a student ID number or campus email as part of registration. These programs are generally for currently registered students. Find out about free access to the swimming pool and workout equipment. Keep in mind that Student Government has many interesting experiences to offer. Often Faculty Committees manage the school and seat 1 undergrad and 2 graduate student as voting members to set school policy. This can also get you invited to an occasional party. It certainly allows you to add an Administrative Experience section to your resume. The process is to walk over to Studen Government offices and chat with them -- but avoid making the visit the first week of classes. CLASSES are only one aspect of college culture. As a registered student you can usually volunteer at professional society conferences in exchange for free registration. In retirement it can be very beneficial to carry 1 credit hour to get the perks. That 1 credit hour can be in an audited or pass/fail pe class in folk dance or skill class, etc. Studio art and photography and beginner foreign language instruction before traveling are also very popular with retirees. Inquire whether the college has an Interdisciplinary Major Program that allows a 4 year degree you uniquely design for yourself. Typically, those require a balance among freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior classes with some reasonable connections. For example, the college might not have a Social Psychology major but allow a combination of Sociology and Psychology courses to lead to an Interdisciplinary degree. A person might to study one part of the world or etc., taking an Interdisciplinary degree in Eastern Culture or European Studies or Third World Commerce, or Allied Arts. On average, those who earn a 4 year degree live 8 years longer than the general life expectancy tables. If/When you get to the level of being able to teach yourself fully through independent research, feel entitled to stop going to school. As long as guided study helps you more, you are welcome in classes.

yes definitely

You'd want layering if your hair is curly or you'll have a triangle head

@@ReticulatingSplines_ not always true. Layers haven't helped my thim and fine hair, even when it was curly (pregnancy hormones have made it wavy now). In another video, she says layers in the back (where you have the most hair) and more blunt on the sides can help.

Thanks for this. Do you have a video that talks about best haircuts for thin, fine hair like this one, but for thinning hair on the top of your head. My hair never really came back after chemo at 37, the scalp is a visible if I don’t have my hair light. I love the platinum, so that’s not a problem, but I am early 40s and don’t want a cut that makes me look older. I wear a lot of wings, which I love, but I do a lot of outdoor activities where I can’t wear them, and I’m just looking for something that might help a bit as far as cut goes. I know it’s never going to look great with that degree of thinning but I didn’t know if there’s anything that is a little better than others?

I have wavy fine hair and learned in my own to cut my hair exactly this way except I also layer. My cuts are better than I ever received from a hair dresser. The layers bring out the wave which makes the hair look fuller. I get tons of compliments. I learned the hard way not to point cut.

No problem at all Lydia! Thanks so much for watching! I’m glad that you enjoyed this one :)

What a lovely thing for her to say. I’m so happy that she thought that!

That is absolutely amazing to hear!!! Do you love it! Yay!! I love stylists that are willing to take feedback and try new things. I follow tutorials all the time.

Yay!!!! Do you love it? That’s great to hear!!!

Lol, Been there, done that! I've given up and cut my own these days. It looks better than when I went to a 'professional'.

Yep, I went in looking for waves to add volume and walked out looking like Annie.

@@cookiemom8651 - Mine was so bad it changed my hair color, my husband hated it, and my 9 month old baby looked at me and screamed and cried. People in the salon were staring at me like I was crazy for doing that…..then they heard my protests. It took 18 months for my hair to start to look normal.

@@mchapman132 My word, how awful for you!

I couldn’t agree with you more. That has been my experience as well. My hair is very fine and thin on top. Even though I am a senior my hair is still dark blonde with no gray. However I still can’t get a really good haircut that I would like.
