A Guide On How To Cut Your Own Hair
I deciding that if I'm going to share how to cut your own hair. That It needs to be a step by step type guide. Meaning that If someone can follow a few basic steps. You will in a very short time (A few days) know the basics to cutting hair like a professional hairstylist. I'm here to tell you that once you understand the basics,like face shapes, section cutting and layering. You will only progress that much faster when it comes to cutting any type or style of hair. And once you have these basics downs, any advance cutting technique, will be that much easier to learn. Why you may ask am I sharing how to cut hair. That is because even If you decide not to cut hair. Then at least you'll know what to look for and ask the next time you visit your hair stylist.
Six Steps On Cutting Your Own Hair
1. Know your face shape and have a cut and style that will complement that shape. I have seem great haircuts on
people that just don't go with their facial shape. Which Results in a not so happy client. So first things first learn about face shapes and how to cut the hair around that shape. Say you have a rounder shape face, If that is the case. Then make sure not to have to many layers around your check or high jaw area or avoid layers in this area altogether. Been sure stay away from volume on the sides as well. You would be better off going with perhaps a longer style say around the lower neck and shoulder area. This style will minimize the width of your face. Now for longer faces, the hair can be cut shorter with bangs and just have your hair blow-dried outward. Which will give your face a wider appearance.
2. Have the proper tools, meaning a nice pair of hair cutting scissors, a couple of combs, some hair clips, electric clippers, and a spray bottle with water. You will need a hand-held mirror and a wall mirror or two and if it can be arranged, a friend or someone in the family to asset and help you out the first few times.
3. Start out with a simple one length cut. First wet the hair. I recommend shampooing and conditioning your hair first, Wet hair is much easier to manage and control when it is clean and conditioned. Once wet, section the hair into 3 or 4 sections leaving out about an inch straight across in the bottle part of the neck (Nape) area. Start by cutting no more then an inch on the section you just left out. This will now be your guide for the rest of the cut. You will continue with another 1/2 inch to an inch section combing the new and the last section together and straight down in between your middle and your index finger. Then cutting the hair in a straight line, using your first cut as your guide. You will continue doing this in small sections and continue with small sections from one side to the other. You will always want to double check and make sure the haircut is even. Then parting your hair in the middle (If you wear a side part then go ahead a use that part) and combing it straight down. Repeat using small sections of hair, checking for any long pieces that may have been missed. When you find them, just go ahead and cut then off.
4. When it comes to curly hair, you'll want to cut your hair dry if this is your first time. Even an experience hairstylist and depending on the type of curl will cut this hair dry to avoid running the risk of the hair spring back to much, due to less weight pulling on the curl. Just be sure your not cutting to much off, as curly or wavy hair tends to always springs back much shorter. Notice how I repeated myself there. Because the more you cut off the less weight the hair has to pull down on the curl. This less weight in the hair will most times cause the curly hair to spring or bounce back much shorter. This always depends on if the hair is super curly or just slightly wavy. Just to stay on the safe side, only cut short lengths to start with. After some experience with cutting curly hair you'll start to get a much better understanding and fill on how the hair springs back once it dries. Remember though, No two curls are alike.
5. O Ya, the ol Bangs! When cutting bangs, be sure to cut them dry, unless your 100% certain, or else someone is going to be walking around with some short %$! Bangs. Be sure before you begin cutting the bangs that your checking for cow licks and hair patterns in the temple and forehead area. Hair tends to grow in different patterns in this area of the head. When you first attempt to cut bangs, just point cut with the tips of your scissors at an angle and taking very small amounts off at a time. Remember if it need to be shorter. You can always cut more.?
6. There are many guys these day's that are wearing their hair short even "buzzed" or tapered. Short haircuts for men are very easy to do with clippers. You'll want to use electric hair clippers, with the desired guard. This way you can choose a length and cut. You'll want to be sure to cut the hair dry with electric clipper, so to avoid the hair restricting the blade and to ensure a even cut. Standard guards will range from next to nothing in length to an inch. Just decide on the length and cut. Clipper Tip here: The hair grows in different pattern on the head so be sure and run the clippers in the opposite direction of the growth pattern several times to ensure cutting all the hair and getting an even cut.
