Very Short Pixie Haircut For Women, Easy Pixie Cut Technique | Short Layered Cut

Good evening and welcome to mahogany facebook live um, we have international creative director, colleen rainey, doing a beautiful short little airport and before we move on to that, let me introduce a team. We'Ve got uk creative director, anthony carter, he's filming facebook live creative director, joseph mcclement, and again welcome colin beautiful little shape you're doing here. What have you been doing? Right? Okay, hi everybody. This is the gorgeous dude, say hello, hello right. So what i'm working on is really quite a fitted type shape and i'm going to lay the hair, i'm lifting each section directly out from the head, because i want to really keep the shape flat and i'm working into the roundness of the head. So i'm not trying to build up weight on the corner, i'm coming into the roundness of the head, so slight diagonal sections and elevating each section and the idea when i get to this hair here is: i want to maintain a little bit of length through the Outline so like so like so and then just here, i'm just going to tip my fingers out. So we develop a little bit of length just through there. I like to keep the hair nice and wet so that it sticks when you section the hair off. So a lot of people tend to in layering they like to work as the hair is drying, but i actually do prefer to keep hair really wet and then again from here working down. And now i'm just going to tip my fingers slightly out and just keeping that little bit of length there. So can you see just here and see if you come that way, yeah i'm following the roundness of the head yeah. So by elevating each section, i'm flattening this down. Okay, next one you're using some really small, fine sections there, colin yeah - i mean, i think you know saturday morning. Maybe you might think a little bit a little bit quicker, but generally keep them fine. So you don't you just don't lose your way yeah! You know. If you keep nice fine sections, you quite clearly can see yeah. You can see the guide there and everything yeah juice. Has it's quite thick as well? Isn'T it a lot of salt a lot of it? Obsessions really help you again just tipping the fingers out like so all right now we're getting to the top of the head stood on my tiptoes here. Okay, all the time it's really important after each section, just analyze what's happening, don't just you know, keep your head down, keep cutting away. Every time i cut a section. I just stand back and have a little play like so, and just stand back and just look at the shape building up, i think from there. That'S a beautiful nice rounded shape right. So now i'm going to start at the front. Thank you again. Keep the hair, nice and wet okay. So this time fingers in like so and then i'm not even going to touch this hair here, i'm just going to leave that alone. You know i might. I might cut that a bit later, once i've dried it and had a look at the moment, i'm just keeping my options open. So is it easier working from the front there instead of carrying on here it just just it's just easier on the fingers yeah, you know just more comfortable, i mean you could carry on this way, but um again, leaving that little bit out. It just makes it yeah it's easier balance and things nice and again each section i'm pulling directly out from the head and just have a little look here now, just going a bit visual and then dropping that out there. So and again, as i said, just keep looking at what you're leaving basically now, i feel like it's quite cool just for those little long bits there and you're still layering here still layering still layering technique, so quite high up into the head as well yeah. Well, i think it gives it a more of a sort of a contemporary look if you come into the roundness of the head um, because, obviously we're working this this panel through the top here is going to be disconnected and if you keep it into the rounded Center, it keeps shaking more flattened head. Hugging just looks a bit more contemporary yeah, really beautiful, but, like i mentioned, you does have quite a lot of hair, so i think the fine sections is quite crucial, so you don't lose your way. Now i'm coming meeting the back like so just have a little look. I think the thing when you're doing this sort of thing, where you're working a bit visual, if it's you know you can always cut it off. If you don't like it, you know when you're doing something creative, you don't have to make a decision there and then must come off or whatever just leave it leave the length and once you dry the hair off you can analyze it and see. If you're happy, would you always work like that sort of dry, the hair always yeah just so, you can see it well, i think, when you're working with a bit of disconnection, you have to really dry the hair, because you you know, because you can't really see. What'S happened until the hair's dry so right now i'm going to lift the hair up over my fingers, i'm going to top the head now, i'm working over your fingers again. Is that just easier to lift the hair, because obviously now the hips, the hair's, coming straight up, yeah so just much easier to have the fingers this way right now, i'm going to come over the top, just a little look! What we got here! Okay! So there's a little bit there that needs layering. So you want to sort of cross check in here. Colleen is that? Well yes, but it's cutting more than cross checking yeah, just checking where you are yeah there. You go, there's just one bit there that needed. Cutting a bit shorter right so now the really exciting part i'm going to try the hair, so everybody facebook instagram, you want to keep it really interactive. So if you can ask as many questions ask as many questions yeah, okay, not much to say about blow drying, not really um, i mean one of the things we do with mahogany. We always um right answer. I'M just going to run this way. We always when we do scissor over comb. We always dry the hair first, just so, you can see how the hair is lying and also it's very important before you scissor overcome when you, when you dry the hair. You know you kind of wrap dry, the hair with your comb, but not giving any root lift, because obviously that will make life very difficult, because this is overcoming vet. Fox says loving. The haircut a few people are saying that hi there again, we welcome questions, say hi. Where are you from? Where are you watching? I always like the interactiveness about these facebook lives, we're gon na sort of maybe do one more in november, and then it's all christmas time you might have december up, but we're really enjoying these facebook lives. Okay and again, with the scissor of coding, it's very important to stand back analyze. What'S going on, okay, so looking through here, this is looking a little bit heavy through this area. So we do have a question from jupiter mars on instagram. What does mahogany? How does it stand out from its grand rivals? That'S quite a tough question we have drawn down to that one colin. I mean we have a really strong creative team and i would say our creative work stands out in editorial magazines like hj um. We again previously years years i mean last year years ago we traveled quite a lot with the creative team, so creative work stands out a lot. My salon work, i think um is very beautiful, very wearable and our clients keep coming back even in these tough times. Very very busy which is fantastic. Does that answer the question? Is that quite good i think ending to outside? Well, i think um, it's a tricky one. Really, because i mean what is a rival, i mean you know we just do what we do. We have our philosophy of cutting and coloring hair and we just do it to the best of our ability, our cliontell the clients who come in every six weeks, every six weeks, two months for a haircut, and they expect that haircut to last them. For six weeks to two months, so we don't have many clients who come in every week to have their hair blow dry. So the understanding of you know giving a good haircut good balance. Precision cutting is crucial. It'S very much a part of the mahogany philosophy yeah. I suppose it's an ethos, isn't it that we all sort of agree on our own same page, and i think it's a beautiful thing. Okay, so that's looking great beautiful, there's a shape there. I carved that little line in there earlier on just needs a bit more refining colin. We have a question from jihad. What is the right way to hold his scissors? How are you holding your scissors? Is there a right way, um? Well, the golden rule basically is as one blade moves yeah, so the thumb doesn't work and the other blade stays still that's how we do it anyway. So when you scissor the cone, the idea is that that's what is it? It'S the blade with the fingers holding it stays as still as possible, and the thumb blade does the work. I think very sharp scissors as well yeah, very sharp scissors, but you know like you can, for instance, you can like you, can scissor over comb like so or if you're going in behind the right ear. Quite often, you'll see overcome this way with coming up like so a little bit trickier, um generally, and also the crucial bit is keep the code moving. If you just keep the cone still you're gon na get a step right. Okay! So i'm just going to flatten this out a little bit more here then we're going to work onto the top right, so lots of people watching colleen how big lots of people watching saying hello right. So i'm going to take a section through the top right. So the idea what i want to do is i want to create disconnection through the crown area, so, in other words, that that hair there i want disconnected from where i've laid into the rareness of the head. However, i want to lay this head down and work in a short little fringe, so fingers pointing down towards the front of the head, so you're removing a lot of weight, a lot of weight, yeah again very, very thick hair. I think you've got a fan. Catherine colin is epic, not sure about that. That'S quite nice, it's lovely! I don't think he will have comfortable. No, i think, catherine's on the vino, i think catherine's on the v-neck right just analyzing the front. I think we'll come a little bit tighter, okay right through to the crown okay, so next section so you're really sort of establishing your length at crucial points of the crown yeah fringe and then removing that weight internally goes there's my guideline, i'm always working like really Clean as well as it's super clean, so if a good friend of the salon he's actually our plumber anthony burden says even your plumber is watching colin today, yeah again keeping the really fine sections quite clearly see my guideline: are you over directing there slightly or are You working on to your previous work. Well, the plan is to work onto my previous. So let me just double check perfect wow, looking onto the previous okay, that one was obviously a bit too fine, so that just leaves the color on top the roundness of the head over here calling is that just building a little bit more well? This will now by pulling the hair straight straight up to the previous, will create disconnection through where i've layered into the roundness of the head yeah. So here we go we'll see here, okay, so if i drop that over now you've got that disconnection just been created through the side there, it's very gentle there as well. Isn'T it too too heavy or anything yeah? I don't. Basically, the idea is, i just want it to look um, i don't want it looking crudely disconnected, you know just quite elegant, nothing too crude, i think. Sometimes you know disconnection can just look wrong. You know like with the balance the balance has still got to work when you work with disconnection. Yes, it seems like you're something very sort of well thought out as well, which is really quite beautiful to watch. I think thank you because that's all do you use that in the sound you're sort of always thinking and everything's thought out before you do it absolutely well, i think that's the mahogany cutting ethos. I don't think anyone goes into a haircut sort of you know. Making decisions spur at the moment. I think it's always quite clear in the head, i mean sometimes you know you're doing a haircut and the hair might react in a way, and you do change your mind. You know. Sometimes you just the hair will do something that you weren't expecting, but generally you kind of know from the off what you're after so that's classically and creatively. Yes, martin gannon's in the house, hi martin martin was one of the um co-founders of mahogany. Back in the day, still keeping an eye on us all right, so i'm just going to cross check now, and you would always do this because you always will sort of work one right and then the other yeah yeah yeah, the golden rule with cross-checking is obviously, If i was to find a larger piece, let's say i picked this up and there was quite a large piece. I would go back this way to cut it off and then i'd come back. This way cross check. I don't know why, but i've just always done that you think now so distort the shape, if you right so now, i'm going to drive here. So this is one of my favorite products, but i don't want to say it in french. So when i ask my assistants to get it i'll say, can you get me the brown bottle? Okay, does anyone want us to say in french friends? Is it's 99 organic, so there's somebody who i think is um came to us in the academy milton who just says they came to the hogging academy in 2012.. That'S what you're doing thank you wrap dry, the hair again, no lift it's nice and gentle uh. Keep the heat on half cup power basically and just wrap the hair that josh did, which is beautiful. Um i've got to read it out because again, i'm not a technician so virgin bleach with l'oreal nine levels, three lightener for 50 minutes and then it's come with 10 slash 01 and clear from the l'oreal dialite range for 15 minutes so again useful for the gun. Back up very clean and vivid, i think i hope he's watching he'll be tuning in. Would you like this straightness for him? Okay, you're right? This is just going to make this fringe a little bit more slightly erratic finished texture, so you're doing this. The important thing is not to shut the blade, just pinch them and finally, i'm just going to go through the sections and just point and that's sort of texturizing, just texturizing softening the hair slightly yeah again the hair's so thick. It'S just removing some of that density. Oh, thank you so obviously keeping very disciplined when you're doing this, i'm going to crazy yeah, it looks super controlled there. Doesn'T it each section you cut just flip it away like so, and then you don't end up cutting the same hair twice. What'S your dad's name, ollie he's craved prestige, he's fooled, he's poor question. That'S my uncle! Okay, your uncle's saying that uncle paul is he in lockdown. He should be yeah dude. You just put your head forward for me. Could i have a dryer again, please, let's get bits of hair out so generally um with waxes, i tend to prefer um a matte wax 90 percent sun, but when i'm doing bleach taking, i do prefer more of a kind of greasy that wax. So, just a small amount: dude you have a demara somebody saying: does the model have a boyfriend? Oh, we can't tell you anything about that. I'M afraid can't give us no secrets, i'm afraid. I think we always have beautiful models. I'M just gon na put this okay. There you go um cool nice. Little recap should do a little recap on what you did: okay, uh, very quick. Okay, so, like i said, layering the hair rounding off going into the round with the head and then leaving these disconnected panels, which just give it a slight more contemporary finish and layering the hair into the fringe. You know that disconnection from there looks really cool, looks beautiful. Thank you for tuning in everybody check out the finished results on my social media pages instagram and facebook and we'll see you next time take care. Thank you.
