He Wanted To Lose The Long Curly Hairstyle And Go Short

Hi guys welcome back to the regal gentleman youtube channel the hunter collective. Today, we've got daniel in the chair. How are you mate you're good, good, good? I'M very well made thank you. So what are we doing? Um we've got a fine header here by the way. Thank you. I'Ve got uh starting union two days. Okay um, i haven't had a haircut in about seven months right and it's just it goes so frizzy and crazy. So, just for uni something simple, i'm thinking fairly short on the sides and back slightly longer on top, but nothing too long, just easy low maintenance, you're the man. So let you have your very vague, very vague thing. I'Ve got to go with okay. What'S your idea of low maintenance um, what style is in your head when you think of low maintenance? Well, so without for my hand as i put loads of product in it, yeah enjoy it perfectly or just go so frizzy. Okay, no worries: okay, seven months growth. Why was it just purely locked down or were you trying to grow it out over lockdown? I was just like. I may as well see what it's like yeah um and then i was scared and then all my local barbershops aren't great okay. So i was like wait for a good haircut. No worries no worries, but now it's just too much. Okay, it's getting too much. Okay! No worries, so your hair is, is it quite kind of carry when it's short as well? Um yeah? It is yeah, um yeah, usually quite clearly one even from like short lengths. It goes. It seems to want to go back very easily. You try and force it forward this kind of kinks out, so i think, if you're doing something low maintenance, why don't we just cut it? So it's shorter for you just kind of run your fingers through it yeah and that's it run your fingers through it. Let it fall yeah and then that's it done. Do i mean, but so it's all balanced through the sides. It'S not like undercut, there's no disconnection just so it's got a uniform top, so it just falls nice and easy for you and then obviously graduate it into a shorter size. Yeah sounds good yeah cool. How short on the back and sides would you like to go? Have you got a particular length or do you want to leave it to me or yeah i'll? Probably i wouldn't i'm really. I don't think a skin fades to me. No, i don't know what i think would be quite nice, just freehand, clipper yeah, the back and sides would be really good more than putting a guard on a grade on, i think just clipping the back inside freehand. That allows me to pick the shape it allows me to kind of graduate and taper where i need to and where i want to as well. So if i've got complete free rein with this, i may as well be spoken totally to you. Okay, all right! More than just doing, like a four back in size short on top okay cool, all right, yeah right, what we'll do we'll give it a wash and a condition and then we'll get started all right, all right guys, so i've just um shampooed and conditioned daniel's hair. Now again, we're taking this all off right. I do think it's a real shame, but i get where daniel's coming from. Okay he's grown it for a long time. It'S getting a bit too much so he's going to uni, i'm pretty sure you grow ours again. If you're going to uni you'll just end up growing out again right, so we might see him again in seven months. You never know so what i'm gon na do i'm gon na start off with a horseshoe section. Okay, now again, if you're watching the videos before this is to isolate great word at the moment in it, isolate is to separate the back and sides to the top. Okay, so i'm gon na with that open up, i'm actually gon na cut into that little bit of the fringe there, which i actually think it'll benefit him doing that, because that looks like it'll be a bit of a problem area for him. That'S the horseshoe's done all the way around this crown. Is there as well just dropped it down a little bit went all the way around. So it's just on the round of daniel's head, i'm going to use clip over comb and i'm going to use my oster 97. So now we're going to slide the comb in from the bottom and pull it out and cross them again, we're not going to skin. So i'm doing this to probably about number six number: seven, i'm working up and pull out as you get to the top knuckle again purely bulk removal follow the guide from the right hand, side, pull it up and out get the top take it across from the Guy from the right hand, side looking up and off the head, make it the oh working off into that length. We just cut we'll remove. I'Ve got my guide to where to moving all that length using that guide, feeding the hair into the clipper through the cone. Now that is bolt removal on that signal. For four minutes, i took all the length of the backing sides. That is why this trimmer and that technique is awesome. Now again, i used to work in a barber shop which was walking 20 minute appointments. This used to help so much especially when you guessed it again: students going back to uni grown out here, long hair. This is ideal. That'S all dried off! Now, i'm just going to use the same clippers comb to really start to refine the backing side. So really bespoke this to daniel okay. She doesn't want to go skin fade again. That'S fine, but i still want to tape up the edges, nice and tight and give them nice really nice professional finish that really low maintenance top as well. So you just start to taper in through here again throw up into that front there, which is going to be slightly annoying for us imagine just taking that a bit shorter and starting at the top working down this time. So we work from the bottom up now. Working from the top down and just nice classic clipper over comb into the bottom, there so again, just going to probably maybe like on a cliff or probably a three all right and on the very bottom, i'm just using my eye judgments and also i'm looking to Shape the face as well through the corner here, i'm looking a little bit tighter towards the ears, we'll keep a little bit of length over here just so we can connect the top in to the sides. Could you stop straight away daniel? What'S that then, looking like to you on the side, it's all right, yeah, so i'll check with you now, so that when we continue around we're getting the right length we're down to start again, so is that looking okay, yeah, obviously we'll tape it a bit tighter Through here and stuff, smaller sections, this time, because we'll find them and refine into a nice taper around the bottom, it into a nice taper on the neck, send that coil around i'm working down the taper so the same thing again, working all the way down. Okay, it looks really nice again we're not looking for anything in your face, we're just looking for a nice classic low maintenance airport nathaniel can live with for as long as he wants again. Imagine like he said. His local area is not too fussed on his barbers. There but also he's moving to bristol, so he might not find a barber in bristol. Neither i can recommend you a good one, but if you don't decide to get a haircut in bristol, then obviously you can grow this out until he's back home. Now again, i'm not going to cut into the hairline too much. I just wanted to just sharpen and strengthen again low maintenance, not very perfectly too detailed, too hard way, something to grow out so again, because i'm not cut into it just into the finer hairs around the hairline. It just keeps it looking nice and clean a little bit longer. You just switch to a smaller comb just so i can suppose the hair out a bit more just strengthen that up a little bit. There'S the serpent now just working through a smaller cone, same thing before it's working, it's a bit of a sharper taper down the bottom, so i'm thinking just something that he can run his hands through and brush it back. I think that's the best way to do it all right. So what we'll do is i'm going to work across the side of the head, i'm going to work horizontally into the top okay, even working into this fringe? Okay, working down to my clip away, just pulling it out straight out. This guide come perfectly straight and just cross check we're going back over it. Would you bring this back that will sit really nicely for this all the way into the top okay. What does it do? Connect it for me, remove length, and all i have left at the top to do. Is this section through here, okay, but we're starting to t we'll start to cut this, so it falls really nicely back pull the finger across i'm over directing it from the front. So we'll maintain the lens it'll end up being like a v down here and all we do is lift it up, put the length we want, but just because the way it falls, his fringe has no problem. Moving around that little curl and bend in there that'll brush back very easily, and i'm just taking away these corners for them, because i can see there'll be a problem area for them as well. Now we'll do it past the middle of the head? Okay, so we're doing it just off center to the left-hand side. Now the reason i'm doing that is, if i did it down the center and i went to a middle part, it would encourage a middle parting. So i'm doing it just past the center and i'll do the same on the other side so that when he wears it back, it doesn't fall in the middle part. Okay, we're cutting it past, either side of the center. My card, underneath i'm just working to that section underneath i'm not elevating the hair, i'm just literally pulling it straight down, so you can see it comes out straight here. The high up the head. It starts to drop down that just maintains a bit more length through the top. You can see i'm pulling that fringe away, so i'm over directing it in the back. That'S all fallen nicely for him, okay, repeat, on the other side, down into that clipper section. So that's the sectional pull it down into underneath now we set just after every section: that's fallen back nicely. It'S not sitting very nicely back that one section past the center now and you can see that guy just coming through there. Now you see, the guide is up on my finger and there we go. You see that guides and level there pull it back from the front to here. We'Ve got a little bit in the middle, you know to match up the corners adjustable removal. So the last little bit i'm gon na, do now, like i said, a little point in the middle here that will remove. So this is up to me how short i go now and again, i want to make this low maintenance, so i want to think about that much off okay club cutter straight through there's. My guide got guides either side as well with a vertical section across, and there will be my little point and then off work around the back of the head pass section. So here like that, so i'm just going to work with the razor now just to force. This hair to come back a bit more for them just to break it up a little bit of low maintenance texture for them as well. You can go with the way the hair wants to fall. Naturally, as you can see how easy this comes back, that's why i chose to go this way. I just knew it'd fall really really easily back and again, i'm looking for low maintenance for daniel i'm not looking to try and create some style that you have to wear product in every single day. You can literally even wear anything in this hair and it'll work. Really well, i'm just using that just to make the corners work and where to remove some thickness, and some bulk she's got very thick here. It'S working from back to front working that razor over now, with the shape of the razor. It'S got gaps coming through here. So you're not just taking slices and chunk shots. Okay, a really good way of thinning the hair out without removing loads of length, but also force in that direction as well, and i think that is it mate how's it look. You happy with that. Yeah. Can you imagine yourself in the morning just when your fingers through here and walk out the door yeah exactly that's it exactly. Would you mind just taking your mask off for me a second as well just want to see the the facial and i've got that, so you can see keeping that squareness in there. What we've done is we've leaned the face off as well yeah. It looks nice and smart as well it's into the camera as well. You see that a little bit of height at the front there, it's really really giving that really nice angle to the face, shape as well i'll, just dry it off just very loosely so that if you are going out right say it's raining and your hair is Soaking wet, if you want to just dry it off a little bit right, hair dryer on nozzle on, and this is how easy it is to do so. Imagine you just got the shower tire: dried your hair, not even going to put anything on it. Okay, hairdryer nozzle facing you like this okay hold up high speed, high heat fingers, shake the hair. Dryer come right like this, and that's your hair done. Okay and all you can do if you want to it's, just that it's all connected either side. I'Ve cut that you've got sort of a nice wavy texture in there and with the razor through just to break that wave up a little bit. You'Ve still got a little element of style in there without having to actually apply product, or anything like that at all, and all you need to do in the morning again is just run your fingers through and that's it now, i'm going to show you the back And sides it's just a nice natural taper into the neck. This is just a nice blend. No scalp exposure. Nothing like that. Just a very classic uniform haircut that works for every single person and also the easiest style to have with our product as well. Happy yeah! That'S great thanks man. Thank you very much. So to recap what we did was um daniel came in and he had an absolute belt ahead of hair and on any other occasion, either say keep it. But obviously you know daniel's situation is we have to take this into account. Daniel'S situation he's going to university in bristol, so obviously not in your home city doesn't know any barbers. There probably might not know where to get a haircut. Um might not know that i'm. I or someone you know can recommend you a good place, so he just wants to go for a short, easy low maintenance circle that he can just style even without prototyping his hair, very simple barbarian haircut. Happy yeah awesome. Thank you very much. You
