Basic Haircut Trim Tutorial!!

All right, I'm going to show you how to just do a basic haircut. Just a basic trim just sit up tall. So to start with, you always want the hair wet, because dry hair is hard to cut and it's hard to keep all together. So and you want clean hair as well, so her hair's just been washed now what you want to do is just part down the middle unless whoever's, hair, you're cutting is always part it on the side, and you can part it there, but as a rule of Thumb, it's always best to just party down the middle from the forehead to the top of their head to the back, and then you just want to make sure you just comb all down very straight now. If you want to cut the hair just with a straight edge around, not an a-line or anything like that, what you're gon na wanted to do is put her chin to her chest now as far she is comfortable, then you just want to comb the middle point Down really well make sure you get all the hairs that are underneath next to her neck and then I'm going to cut the middle section first now either you can cut flat against her back or you can put your fingers underneath, like I'm going to do whatever Gives you a little bit more control now, I'm just trimming this just right here in the middle I'm just going to make my initial cut and I'm just going to do about half an inch about all the same across about a two inch wide section. So that's my guide and then I'm going to cut to the left. You see my guide and what you want to do for a straight edge. Again is once you get past, this initial guide, you're going to start angling, the hair slightly down and out, and the reason why this is going to give her the effect that there is straight when she puts her head back up. So I do this very gradually. It'S not a big angle. You want to make sure you do each side just a little bit the same through the same angle and then just keep working your way around her head to about this point. Where hurt your lar, it's in just a very gradual taper. Just make sure to comb comb comb see all that those bottom hairs out get try and keep the same angle and your scissors on both sides, she's keeping her head very still and in the same position, and that's just what you need. Okay, I'm over here to just about where your ears are okay. Now, before you go any further, what you want to do is you want to check it so just run your fingers down the hair in two separate places, the same spot on your head and just fill up. Your fingers make sure they're the same length. Okay, now to get the size section, you want to put her head up straight and we come over here just on top of the ear, as you can tell her head to the side, her ear to her shoulder, not helpful. It'S the same effect. You always want to make sure you can see where you cut before, where I am right here, and this is where you want to just kind of start evening - it out and you're not going to cut as much just trim and this I always end up taking Much less off these sides because of how I cut it in the back. Okay and her front is tapered, so it's not going to be as long but we'll get to that later. Okay, now come around to the other side: hey wait! That'S all drop and tilt your ear over to your shoulder. Okay, see our guide right there, your head tilted, that's it over! There we go if it looks longer, something doesn't like the same, make sure their heads in the right position and see the guide tilt your head back over okay, okay, now for the front, you want to do a slight taper in the front. Just put your chin right now, you just want to grab this front little section depending on how deep you want your taper, I'm going to go in about an inch. Sorry, just comb that straight down in front and heading again how high you want it! I'M going to cut off about an inch here, and this is your guide hole, chin up just straight straight ahead. Make sure that's all the same, not your guys that repart it and then you only want to do taper to right here in front of the ear. You don't want to go back into this hair behind the ear, because, if you get in there too far, it looks funny. So I'm going to do here is I'm going to comb this hair slightly forward, like so sit up tall. That'S a girl, hmm comment forward towards your face and bring it out it's important to remember what way you're pulling the hair and just so that you can do it the same on both sides. So I'm just going to pull it forward just right in front of her shoulder, and I lost my little guide here that guides this front top piece you can see where I cut it right here. So I want to do is angle it from here. To this point, and that will give us a nice taper, so you go from point to point, so you can see I'm going to do that, don't move! If you need to read comb during it. Do that and you can let the front the parts you've cut. Let go or you need to sometimes it's hard to hold it all. Do okay, okay, says I didn't cut that end part. Then it will blend in to the hair back here you can see how that taper is down. So I do the same thing on the other side. So again, we'll part it off right here to her ear, I'm gon na comb. It forward trip just straight in front, find our guide opposite sigh. Sorry he's tricky! You have to have your scissors at the same angle he's sitting up tall. This is always hard for kids to sit still but go get it. So here's my point and then here is don't look down cake and here's. My taper you'll see that there so I'll. Just start, my initial cut this time. I'M going to angle my scissors this way just so I can keep the same angle on her hair and I have to go from the other opposite end to make sure that's all even okay. Now again, you want to check it so just run your fingers in the same position down see if they feel the same okay, and that is a basic trim. That'S our final cut and you can see how it's nice and straight in the back as well, how it lays straight, and it doesn't taper down like this like it - would, if I had just kind of straight across without having a tipper head forward. So that is our final product for a haircut
