Quick & Easy Long Inverted Layered Haircut | Dry Cutting Technique

Okay right, so what we've decided to do today is just keep it dry all right, so i'm gon na do a dry haircut today. So some of you are watching you might i don't really do dry hair cutting. I usually wash my model's hair cut. It. Maybe color it and then go for it. Okay, if that's what you prefer to do, that's fine! This has really been designed for people who are color specialists, who maybe get a client in the chair, and they cut the basic shape in there now and then they go in and put a leg there, ombre balayage, foiling techniques, maybe a money piece through the front. They might want to put a money piece through this front area, but they're not really focused on, like chopping loads of hair off okay. So this demonstration this morning is just literally a long layered face frame long haircut, all right. So if you've got a client who comes in - and you have open questions for your consultation, because for me the biggest mistake as a hair cutter - is it's too short, no one's really going to complain if it's too long, if it's too long, they're just going to Turn around and say cut more off and guess what it's going to make you run behind all right, so make sure that you get the consultation right all right. So the consultation for me is three quick. Three key questions. Okay, so what do you love about? Your hair, okay, what does she love about her hair? She loves the hair, long. Okay, she wants to maintain maximum length. Okay, is there anything you hate about your hair yeah, it's flat all right. I like to get a little more movement in the hair. I just feel like it's flat and i want some more like layers. Can you call it obviously she's not a hairdresser, so she might not know the technical term, but she wants a bit more volume if someone's asking for volume. What take what technique? Are you going to use you're going to use layering, because what does layering do it takes that weight, but also creates a lot of volume in the hair? How short you go with your layer again all depends on that client's suitability. Her face, shape her hair density. Her hair texture, her lifestyle, okay, so the client says, look, i want lots of volume and i like to wash and leave it and i like it really shaggy and messy, then you're going to go a lot shorter internally. Okay, in this case, she wants longer layers. She just wants to give a little bit of shape a little bit of body, so we're introducing some long layers, phrase framing and maintaining maximum length. So what do you love about your hair? What do you hate about your hair and then the third and final question on the consultation is: what product are you using in your hair at the moment, all right, so it's really important to ask what products the clients using. Why do i ask? That is because then it helps me put the right product in on the client's hair. So if the client turns around and says like i like serums, i like oils, i, like smoothing creams, then all of a sudden when i come to style it i'm going to use the same product. She recommends so like a smoothing cream, a curl lotion, a leave-in conditioner. Anything like that. If she's mentioning him knows what kind of words and she turns around and says, like i like moose, you know things like that, so it's helping me decide and identify what products i could use behind the chair. Okay. So if you are a hairdresser girls, i don't. I don't do any dry cutting, then what you would. What i suggest now is to take your client over to the basin shampoo condition: okay, use a prep product like a like a prep spray like a leaving, conditioner or detangler spray; okay, comb it all through when it's wet and then we'll do the section together. Okay, if you're a hairdresser goes okay, this is quite quick. You know i am a colorist. I am stuck when i do some long hair. I have a go-to haircut. Every haircut is the same. I do my ombre. I do my balayage. I put a money piece in, but i do the same technique on my long hair clients on every single haircut. So hopefully this new this technique. What we showed you is quick and you can use it behind the chair and guess what you can make money from it, because when it's powerful and really really popular yeah behind the chair, then clients are using it. Clients are having it and you're going to make some money from it. Okay, so what we're going to do we're going to work from a center if you've got a client who says no? No, no! No! No! I don't wear it in a sense. I wear it on a side, then you can suggest to put it in a natural party, so wherever you part it, if it's slightly off center, is it on to the side on the left or the right work, your parting in first of all, in this case, We want that versatility and what versatility is where the client can wear it to the left right back forward ponytail and it's going to look good all right. For me, the key to a good haircut is versatility. Clients like change. If you don't give a client choice. She'Ll give you a choice: she'll go somewhere else for a haircut all right, so we have to educate our clients on how to style their hair all right. So, in this case, we're going to go center all right, so a little center part in all the way down, all right, so pretty straight forward all right. So now what we're going to do, i'm going to put my client onto a profile and then what you'll start to see now? What we're going to do is we're going to go underneath the crown so underneath the crown. How do i get underneath the crown? So i use our famous orange edged home. I pop it on the crown like so and then below the crown so literally just below the crown there, okay above the occipital bone below the crown, i'm going to work a diagonal section all right. So i'm just going to work a diagonal section so towards the top of the ear: okay, so technical term, a diagonal forward, section, okay and today, having a forward section to the top of the ear all right. So if any of you are just tuning in this is a live, this is not pre-recorded. We are live this morning, so i see a lot of people waving and saying good morning so uh it could be good afternoon where you all are there's different places. Wherever you are in the world, i have got katrina and how are you my darling? My little super fan share share share. I love you hope, you're well, my darling and i hope you're going to be watching the football later um, but yeah we're just literally working a little live on dry, hair, okay, so very simple, so far profile center parting. All the way down a diagonal section, okay, making sure that's below the crown. So if you put the cone flat on the head below the crown towards the top of the ear and guess what all that nape area now all this hair in my fingers is going to be clipped up out of the way. So we're going to grab that. I'M going to twist it all right, so if this was even longer hairs, it's going to do very, very long hair. Then you would isolate this out of the way okay, so you just clip that out the way like so okay, so we're not touching the nape area, all right so get let's get rid of some hairs. What doesn't get too confusing all right, so anything under the crown you're going to isolate out the way. So you can take the clips back out now and now we're going to work our guideline for our layers, we're going to layer this hair cut first, okay, so anyone's tuning in we're doing a dry haircut. We'Ve got uh kind of like requested by a lot of our california followers, a lot of our california followers. You know they do a lot of long hair here in california, there's a lot of color. You know a lot of a lot of salons. There was color specialists, a lot of blonde specialists and they were like. We love your pizzas. We love your bobs, we love what you do as an educational company, but could you do a long haircut today on dry hair and we went yeah? Why not all right? So because that's what we do a lot of in the chair behind behind the chair, so you're doing your colour placement you're, a colour specialist and you just want to give some nice shape to your long hair clients, okay! So what we're going to do now? We'Re going to put in a center section right through the middle okay, so i'll just twist, all that out the way and we'll take you through that, so literally taking you through the middle okay. So if you go through there like through the middle a center section right through the center okay about as wide as the comb, so about as wide as your comb or two fingers about two fingers: depth: okay and we're literally gon na now layer. All the way through the middle okay, so how we're gon na do this? My distribution elevation is 90 to over directed all right, so you're going to go 90 from the head up to the ceiling, but then you're going to over direct it towards the corner of the wall. What i say, because you're not going to be the wall you're not going to the wall but you're not going to the ceiling so in a way you're going to the corner of the wall and the seat in between all right, so head up right: okay, i'm Going to start at the front, okay, and how short you take, this comes down to your client's lifestyle, so we look at the face shape so this this layer. What we're going to create in the internally is also going to be the phrase framing. At the same time, so what i love about this technique? It'S fast! It'S quick and you're doing two techniques you're doing one technique for two for two techniques: two ideas, if that makes sense, because i'm gon na layer, but how we're going to layer is also going to make the fresh framing at the same time. So if you're a hairdresser who's, not very good at fresh framing - and you want to put some long layers in there and you want to get it perfect - guess what this is the one. This is the money maker all right. So what we're going to do here now is we literally lift this up? Okay, my fingers are not as long as the full head, so we sub divide it. So we just take a small amount like so so you're lifting it straight to the ceiling 90 and then you're going to over direct it, okay and then you're going to decide where you want this to fall. Okay, so it's dry hair. So it's not going to jump up if this was wet and you had movement and curl and maybe leave it more on the longer side and we're going to point cut. Okay, i'm going to point cut it, keeping it really soft because we're doing a dry haircut. So i want a point cut and keep this all nice and dry. So if you've noticed, my elevation is 90 to over directed okay. So on a profile there, you can see for work on this camera. You can see. That'S the idea, okay, what we're working for so what's going to happen is when i fall back down. You can start to see what sort of length you've got going on in that front. We don't want to do a really short phrase frame. All right, if you've got a client who says look, i want to take my phrase frame into my lip or to the chin and guess what you just go in here and you take more off. Okay, the more you take off the shorter that front's going to be think about your client's lifestyle is. Does she tie it up a lot? Does she like to tie behind her ears? Does she wear a ponytail then? If she does, then this fresh framing is going to be left longer. Okay, the longer the phrase frame, the more you've got chances of tying it up and having a bit of fun, does she use a curling iron, a curling wand yeah? If she uses anything like that, then it's going to make it look shorter, so he's better, leaving it on the longer side. Okay, so bring it forward, decide what sort of length you've got for i'm happy with that. I don't get carried away. This was just you know, suggested by a lot of the salons here in california to do a a long phrase frame, a long layer ideal for our balayage money pieces. Things like that. So what you're going to do now, you're just going to bring all that coming forward, so the rest of that center section, the elevation is 90 to over directed yeah and i'm point cutting yeah from shorter to longer, because what happens now is this hair might not Reach so this crown, but when i bring this crown up at 90 and then i over direct it, but it hardly reaches and if it doesn't reach don't mind all right so what's happening is it's longer at the crown and it's shorter at the front. So, technically now, if i go through - and i want to cross check it, i'm going to bring everything to the ceiling. So if i bring everything to the ceiling now, if i bring everything up to the ceiling 90, what you're looking for is shorter to longer. Okay, so you're lifting that all the way up to the ceiling yeah and what you're looking for here is a layer going from shorter to longer. So, instead of doing this kind of 90 and bending your elbow and stretch your body and feel like you're doing a yoga position and you're like oh, this is really difficult. I'M not tall enough yeah make it easy for you. You bring it up to the 90 and bring it forward, bring it 90 and bring it forward, bring it 90 and bring it forward when you bring it forward, it's better for your posture, okay, you're working from shorter to longer! So then, when you cross check - and i lift this up down - you can see the length here is shorter and the length is longer at the back. Okay, so we've created a seamless layer and what seamless means is where you can't see it starting and you can't see it finishing it blends in it's really seamless people don't want to have a christmas tree haircut or a mushroom haircut all right. So that's the first section done what you'll do now. Is you get all that section and you throw it over to one particular side, so you don't split the section in half all right, so you just this particular side here we don't need it so we'll clip that out the way, try and keep it as clean. As possible, especially with applying in the in the mirror, you don't want hair all over her face all right, so cleaner sections, cleaner haircut, all right, more discipline. So if you can see now, when i look on a pro unlock center, that's a little bit offset now that parting is because the center section what we've just caught has been thrown over this way all right. So i've got a really nice strong guideline now to go for this side. So what we do now is we mirror the same sectioning pattern, so we just literally work a vertical section or parallel section going around across the head. So, let's go over this way and then you'll be able to see the sections all right. So what we're going to do now is we're going to continue working parallel, all the way down to the hairline okay. So if you're, a very busy hairdresser you've been working behind the chair for many years, and you understand this technique and it's working on maybe a finer density of hair. You could do that in one go all right, i'm not here to dictate. I i'm just here to share the love all right: you either love it or you or you, don't. Okay yeah. I always just like to get out there and share what edge academy is about some things. You like some things. You might not like some things. You might think wow, that's so quick and easy all right. If i was working on a thicker density, then i'll take a few more sections. Okay, finer density. I can take less sections all right. Think realistic. No one wants a two-hour haircut, all right! Think about it. If i can do this haircut quicker, it gives me more chance to work on my color placement. It makes me more chance to work on something that i need more time on all right, so i'm going to stand on the opposite side. So i'm going to stand on the opposite side, yeah and i'm over directing the hair. So what i'm going to create here now is a concave layer, all right, concave, meaning shorter in the middle longer on the outer edges, all right, so we're going to create a concave layer all right, so your body position is really important, so this haircut, what we're Doing this morning is a haircut which we teach on our boot camp class. We do a two day evaluate yourself. It'S a two day, boot camp class on eight haircuts. We do eight haircuts in two days and it's evaluating your cutting skills. So we see how good you are as a hair cutter all right. So if you feel like you know, you feel like wow, i could love to do this haircut uh step by step with anthony at the academy. Then we run the evaluate class every other month. So we have one coming up at the end of this month, so the end of this month there's a two-day hair, putting boot camp here at the academy and you do eight haircuts in two days all right. So that's great. If you're, you know, maybe you're a colorist or you're not really focused on hair cutting, and you need a little bit more guidance with your hair cutting and that's a great investment for anybody to do all right. What else we've got going on this month? We'Ve got a couple of salons we're going to in san diego we're going to hide edwards a really cool salon here in san diego we're going to the colour bar all right. I call up our salon in san diego to do some hair there. What else are we doing i'll put this straight now, so then you can start to see what it looks like when it's straight all right, uh we're doing a one day, haircut on shag, hair cutting, so we're going to do one day class on a modern day. Shack, a shaggy bob and a shaggy pixie, so the shag's been really popular over the last three or four years, people asking for a 70s kind of shag curtain, bangs things like that are really popular. So we decided to focus on a one day class on shag, haircutting, so we're doing a long haircut and then a medium, a mid length and then a grown out kind of pixie kind of shape. All right so we're doing three haircuts called the shag day. All right so again, if you want to know more about our education and you felt like i'd love to know what they do. You know we can send you a brochure with all the prices in there all right and you can maybe invest and come to california. For a couple of days, all right, so the last section now guys if you notice that just pulling all that up now, so what you've got to look out for here. Is your body position all right, making sure that you're standing on the opposite side? Also, your client's head position, because, if you're, very heavy-handed or you've got a lot of tension - and you give a lot of tension to your heart, but you pull there's nothing much worse. When you pull that pull the hair too much that the client's head starts to move all right, so always use your mirror. So in this case i can use the screen or the screen yeah and literally then, i'm over directing all that hair. So using the larger teeth of the comb, because i'm working on a dry haircut all right and it's not going to get tangled. So i'm just combing that all the way through from there, under from literally from the hairline all the way through we're just over directing and exactly the same, bringing it 90 to over directed my distribution is 90 to over direct. That'S the way you comb it elevation. 90'S over direct and then cutting from shorter to longer, okay, so the technical breakdown there yeah is literally distribution and elevation is 90 to over direct and then we're cutting yeah short to long so shorter at the front longer at the back. Okay. Instead of stretching all your body, you just comb in the hair forward, so it makes it a lot easier. Okay, then you can drop all that down and that's the one side completed all right, so very quick, very salon friendly. It'S a great haircut this one to do behind the chair. So if any of you are watching - and you do a lot of long hair and you've got a lot of clients with long hair, and this gets scared of haircuts. They might have a haircut once a year. You know no disrespect to hair cutting, but if you're a specialist in color - and you have clients who have long hair and they have a haircut once a year twice a year, this could be a go-to haircut for you. Okay, this is a really good one to do so. If i shake that out now, as you can see yeah, it's very seamless, there's no shelf all right, there's no light! Hey! There'S your layer! There'S your lens good! Look all right! It'S literally very seamless so because of the over direction you're creating that kind of concave feeling all right. So it's getting from shorter to longer to the outer edges. Okay, so that's one side completed! So what we're going to do now we're going to reestablish that middle section. So you just literally reestablish that middle guideline, what you first cut! So you get that middle section and you literally now pop it over the opposite side. So you've got a nice guideline. All the way through now take that clip out that side and we'll clip this side. Out of the way, like i said before, clean keep it nice and clean, there's lots of mirrors in the salon, and what does that mean when clients have sat down we're looking through mirrors and looking at other hairdressers cutting in a way? If you're, not an educator and you're just a hairdresser behind the chair, people still watch you people still look at you. People still look at like what you're wearing how you're doing a haircut. How you're approaching how you're dealing with your clients, people see it we're in the salon yeah, even if you've got a window outside a big old window of the hair salon, people are looking in. You know so you're on show all the time all right, so you can start to see re-establish that guideline. It'S a little bit off-center. Now it's a little bit off-center all right and now what i stood on this side and over directed. So what we're going to do now, i'm going to go on the opposite side, all right, so you're moving around guys. You'Ve got to move it, move it move! It you've got to move it all right, all right, you're going to move around all right. So that means you go on this side and now we go on this side. Okay, so don't be lazy and stay on one side. If you stay on one side, the balance is going to be off with this haircut. Okay, so we literally go through mirroring the section standing on the opposite side, and then we've got two devices going with obviously uh we're live on facebook and live on instagram this morning and you just pull that into the middle okay, so you're just pulling that into The middle, if you over direct it past the middle say like okay, i want to over direct it more. I want to really over direct it more. What will happen? Uh it'd be more concave, okay. So what will happen? You need more weight. So if the client says i hate my hair when it gets wispy on the ends when it gets really wispy on the ends and all the weight has been taken out, i hate that i hate it when it looks like a jellyfish. I hate it when it looks like it's breakage. So if a client says look, i don't want too much weight out the bottom, then over direct it more to leave more weight and and heaviness in the bottom all right, so you can over direct it as much as you want a little trick. What i would have done is like say, for example, if the client wants it really short say like lip or the chin, and they want the first section shorter yeah, but they have longer hair. Then that means that it's going to come over more the more you over direct, the more you will leave in the perimeter. Okay, so just a little little pointers, it's always nice to share as much as possible on these uh facebook and instagram lives. If you want to know more yeah, come to the academy, we'll do a uh we'll do a class come come, come to. California, do a one day, two day, three day class with us. We have lots of classes planned for the rest of the year. We'Ve got uh, you know, like we said earlier, we've got the the shad class coming up this month. We have our evaluate yourself class next month we have our creative and men's hair cutting class coming up. So always something going on here at the academy um. What else is new just been nominated for southwest hairdressers of the year me and gloria? You might have noticed on our post yesterday. We just got nominated for south west hairdresser of the year colorist of the year and artistic team of the year. All right we will find out uh later on. I think it's august we find out if we won or how far do we get but we're obviously, in the last six uh we're in the final. So you know keep keep out for that one. That'S a really good news. We just found out uh yesterday so south west hairdresser of the year artistic team of the year and colourists of the year from my collections, all right so just pulling that into the middle. So anyway, just look in there just pulling that in there keep it nice and clean okay and then literally working from shorter, so longer, okay, so a lot of people waving where you are from guys, you know. Obviously i always like to give you a shout out where you're from you know: i've got people from england watching i've got people from all over the us watching uh give us a shout out where you're from and i'll give you a wave and say hello, all Right but we're just literally just finishing off that last bit on that side over directing all that now over to one side, keeping that head straight okay, long time, bro, it's always been great to see work with you johnny. How are you mate good to see you? It'S always nice to see people there, cats sharing it too. Congratulations from england! Thank you, darling, willie, good luck for the football! Thank you all right so literally working that through shake that out, okay and um, we'll see that hi edge, and that is fred, fred fredo. How are you my friend cool, so literally just shaking that out and then you can start to see that if i take this clip out now, that's the whole layering pattern done how soft commercial salon friendly is that yeah, and this is a really great haircut. This is a haircut that you know back in my day when i worked in london, you do a lot of the supermodels or the models coming through. They didn't want a haircut. You know they do a lookbook, their lookbook costs, thousands of dollars for all their imagery and their photographic work. You can't cut their hair, you know they're professional model, but they do want to look good. They do want to have a haircut. What looks cool so this was a really big haircut back in the day, with all the the supermodels think about if you've got a clientele, who's, long hair, and you want him to look good you're amazing at color. A money piece baby highlights ombres anything like that, but then you think i want this haircut to look hot. I want the client to even look really cool that she can manage it. This haircut is the go-to okay. So, if you're just tuning in just a little recap, what we did, we literally worked got the comb. We put it flat on the crown we work below the crown to the top of the ear and we clipped the back out the way. So you've noticed. There'S a clip in the back, so that's isolated out the way we're only layering from the crown to the forehead, we're only layering, all that top area center section right through instead of going to the ceiling or to the wall we're going in between okay. So it's 90 from the head and over directing so you're scooping it in a way you're going 90 and scooping it round and you're going from shorter to longer. And then you pull everything into the middle all right and how far you pull it into the middle is honestly up to you, the more you over direct past, the middle. Then the more weight and length you're going to leave in that bottom. Okay, all right! So longer hair, then you might need to over direct it more if the hair goes shorter in the front, but she still wants to maintain maximum length. Then you've definitely got to over direct it if you're a little bit nervous when you cut the first section, if you do this haircut on a real client, and you do the first section and you cut it, what i would suggest to do is grab a bit Of hair, at the top of the ear at the hairline grab a bit of hair where you just cut and then pull that up, and if this is, if this hair now yeah is shorter, it is longer. Sorry is a lot longer than this than the p shot you just cut. Then that means yeah you're going to cut that off. Does that make sense, so look we can go. I could go a lot shorter on this length say like she wants to maintain that maximum length yeah. If i grab that hair the top of the ear look, how short i can go, i can cut that much more hair off without um, without disturbing any of that outline. So if that makes sense, look grab a bit of hair, pull it in and that's the shortest. I can take it if it's longer head it's down here by the time i've lifted it up, yeah, you might be putting too much off okay. So what you do now, you're just going to check your fridge framing all right. You just check the fresh framing, so you just comb that back off the face off her face and you just tidy up that face framing if there is any all right because of the layering pattern, how you've done it. It worked from shorter to longer your phrase. Framing should be there, okay. What i would do i would go through and check it. Why just to make sure there's no wispy bits in a way: you're dusting you're just going to be dusting this bit tickling, you know whatever you want to call it all right. You'Re not really doing a haircut now you're, just literally gon na just tidy up a little bit just through that front, alright, so bringing that forward, and you can start to see perfect fresh frame, wow cool. I had my breakfast this morning, so just literally concealer an absolute perfect, so it's shorter, going down longer shorter, going down longer all right, and if you want to strengthen it, you could just literally just dust wherever necessary. Also, this is an option. If your client change their mind, imagine the client turns around and says actually i've just decided. Can i go a little bit shorter and i'm like where internally or through the front she's like through the front? That'S fine, then you decide where you want to take it like. I said earlier, if you take it above anywhere above the chin, then she's not going to be able to tie it up anything below the chin, she's going to be able to put in a ponytail. So think of that think of a lifestyle, all right, how she's going to do that all right! A lot of people waving a lot of people saying hello, hello, guys. I hope everyone's well on this wednesday morning - live from san diego. We are live here at edge academy, all right. This is the only haircut i'm doing today, guys because i'm off to the pub to watch the england game, all right. I'Ve been going to the pub to watch the england football game all right, and then you just let you just check check your hair. Okay, move that around have a look all right, and this is where you got an option. Then, when you style it, you know we're not here to do a styling class. This is a haircutting class, all right, it's just a quick technique, but then, if you had like a curling iron, you could curl an eye in that you could round brush that. How beautiful is that you know how salon friendly? Is it all right? So we've literally created a nice layer all the way through. So the last part of the haircut is to take the clip out the back yeah and you will trim any dead ends. So this is a client who said: look. I don't want anything off my hair. I know i want to maintain maximum length, so what we've done is put a long layer internally. That'S also created the phrase framing just to tidy it up and now because of the layer, is shorter. Look if i pick that up see the layer, it doesn't affect the actual length, so i can cut the length in one go: how how quick is this all right, so i'm going to get on my knees and i'm just going to literally go back comb it Down yeah and i would literally ever go and cut it. I think you can see me on both devices and then it's a brand new dolly head, so you can see it's a little bit wispy all right and then you would just literally just tickle the ends off there all right again. This is all customization, because what your clients see and what my clients say are going to be different all right, but you want to make sure that your hair cut looks good, there's nothing much worse, you do a beautiful color and then these ends look like they've. Been fried or they look dry or they look wispy and you do a beautiful, color and you're talking about hey. I'Ve done a money piece, i've done ombre, look at it and you get your client to go backwards and you start doing that. Photograph like that and you start shaking it around. But all the ends are fried all right, so make sure that it's nice and strong all the way through there, okay, all right, so that is the technique completed. It'S called an inverted layer. If you don't know what this haircut is, you can do it wet, but today we got recommended from a lot of our followers here in california. Can we do a dry haircut? We do a lot of color. You know i'm a blond specialist, i'm a colourist, no disrespect to your education. I love it, but can you do a long haircut? Can you do something that we can work in our salon here in california and i was like yeah? Of course, let's do something for you guys all right, so that's what we've decided so just to recap it below the crown to the top of the ear a center section right through the middle shorter to longer inverted it into the middle so into the middle into The middle you can cross check if you wish, you can pick up and check your balance. It'S concaved all the way through. Then we take the clip out the back. We tidy up the perimeter whatever you want to do and then check your face, framing just check it yeah. We just checked it just to make sure it was normal wispy bits in that fresh frame, all right, but the layering pattern being shorter in the middle and concaving creates the phrase frame all right. So it's kind of like you know that kind of old sailing of uh hitting two birds with one stone all right. The layering pattern creates a long layer in texture, but also hits the phrase framing at the same time, all right and then this is where i would now maybe do my colour. So if this was a client now, then i would go and talk about colour and then put in the placement of colour she's having a money, piece highlights, etc, get all that done and then blow dry it if you're a hairdresser girls. I don't really do a lot of dry cutting then maybe color it first get it all done and then do this technique wet. Okay,
