Hi Sam via here I've got a great hot tip for you when you want to go in and let's say that you want to create a nice degree of story of shortness in the back. How do you really create a nice steep angle into the front and you can maintain some length in the front, so we're simple, my friends a lot of times? What we'll do is we'll go through and we've got our desired length in the back, and I want to maintain length in the front. But what's most important is the proportion of length that you leave in regards to the degree of shortness that you have in the back area? It'S really really simple, okay, so now I want you to watch from the side profile. Now I'm going to take this section and instead of actually doing what I've been taught, is take a diagonal forward section and over-direct back and angle. My finger diagonally watch what Sam's going to do. What I'm going to do is, first of all, I'm going to take the entire section. So what I've done is we pre-cut the back to the corner left back and the corner right back now, watch how this is going to take place really really simple, simply taking the section. I want you to place it into the wide teeth of the comb, but the comb is going to come underneath now, when you watch this from the front view, what you're going to see is you're going to see how level this comb is horizontally. Now, let's take a look at profile view when you see you can start to see that I have a guide here right there at that point, I'm going to keep my hand horizontal, I'm going to rotate rotate rotate rotate rotate. Now, look how my hand right now is horizontally, then I'm simply going to come through and cut a horizontal line. You can see where I'm at at centre-back take a look from the front and look at the profile view. Now. Look at the angle I'm going to cut I'm going to cut a horizontal line, a horizontal line that attaches itself to that previous line. Now, let's go back and watch again, I'm not going to release it yet watch again take the section comb through you're, simply going to place the comb level and horizontally once you're. There keep it level horizontal from a profile view. Look at the level of the comb! Really, nice and flat parallel to the floor. Now we come through. We turn turn follow your finger angle. Follow the finger angle, allow that to create it for you now, once you come through you're cutting a horizontal line here, so I'm simply coming through and cutting a horizontal line now watch when we release this line, I want you to watch how it falls from the Degree of shortness of the back to the degree of length that we're looking for in that front area. So it gives you a really nice steep angle when you can see that from a profile view just a really cool way to maintain some length in the front area. Now, let's take a look, I want to go profile view. Take a look at profile view. Take a look at the back view of this. Now here's the trick now you're going to take everything from the corner. Maybe you see me do this before, but I've been in the side area. This is all about creating an extreme amount of length in the front area. This is going to be very easy, easy for Ashley to blowdry, especially in the back area, where they have a lot of hair okay. What are we going to do again? We'Re going to go in horizontally, whitey to the comb notice, how I'm pulling down to that guide at that point, once I'm at that guide now, all I'm going to simply do is just keep that comb level and all I do is just simply rotate rotate, rotate Rotate rotate, so that my hand is in a horizontal position right at that center back once I'm there. This is a tough angle to get to. So I want you to cut from the degree of length that you have cut up to that finger to where you're at right into that Center now watch. When I release this watch, it's fall from short to long once again, just a great way to go in and create a degree of link to it. Here we go again: let's take a look at a profile view: okay, horizontal, so I go in horizontal once I'm here. Look for that guide see that guy now all I do is I rotate rotate rotate. The comb rotate, the comb rotate the comb. Let'S turn the chair, so you get a nice profile view now watch the hand and the comb rotate rotate rotate rotate. Now, once again, I come in from the degree of length that I'm at and I cut right to that line. Now, when I release I'm going to come through and maintain the degree of length into the front, so when you look at her now, she still has her length, but you can just start to see how she has that angle. That goes from short to long. Once again, Sam, via here with a hot tip for you for you to grow your business behind the chair, remember my friends in today's world. It'S all about problems and at Sam via we have the solutions you
