Pixie Haircut - Emma Watson Pixie Cut Tutorial | The Salon Guy

In this video I share my Emma Watson inspired haircut. Although her hair is a bit grown out now, she had a beautiful style and pixie haircuts are still so popular.

Sometimes you just have to do things for you — and that was Emma Watson's modus operandi after she completed her eighth and final "Harry Potter" movie in 2010. Leaving Hermione behind, the British actress famously chopped her long locks into a bold pixie cut, and signed on to explore roles that were different from the magical one she was used to.

So about that hair... It was the snip-snip heard throughout Hollywood when the 22-year-old debuted the super-short style in August 2010. While everyone was a critic, Watson didn't care, taking to Twitter to tell her followers that her new 'do made her feel "incredible" and described it as "the most liberating thing ever." Now two years later, she's talking about her infamous haircut, noting that it wasn't well received by the guys in her life. "Of course, men like long hair," she tells Glamour. "There's no two ways about it. The majority of the boys around me were like, 'Why did you do that? That's such an error.' And I was like, 'Well, honestly, I don't really care what you think!' I've never felt so confident as I did with short hair — I felt really good in my own skin."

Hello, ladies and gentlemen, I'm Steven a salon guy and welcome to Total Request hair were you guys, send any requests, and hopefully I can do them for you now. My most recent request was the Emma Watson. Pixie cut Emma Watson's hair. Now is a bit longer. She'S kind of groaning out, but it was a very popular, very cute cut and I'm going to show you guys how to get that. Emma Watson, as you know, was an actress in the Harry Potter series and if I could magically wave the comb over the hair. Like in Harry Potter and magically make a pixie cut appear, I would absolutely do so, but I'm going to show you now how to achieve the pixie haircut that Emma Watson had alright. So my first section I'm going to take on a diagonal vertical section and what I'm going to do is create my base length that I'm going to have - and it's probably about maybe about 3/4 of an inch. And this is going to be the consistent length that I'm going to have throughout the whole back of the head, and you want to keep this pretty consistent because the length in her hair - you know it's probably one of those haircuts words pretty you know pretty standard. Traditional kind of even haircut all the way through out the back so literally, what I'm going to do is I'm going to just continue to work the shape all throughout the back, and I like to work on a diagonal vertical. Just because it's you know it's different. It keeps me very structured and how I'm cutting it's, not the usual. You know it's just it just has a good working angle and it's very comfortable to follow. If you haven't tried it, I would suggest trying it so I'm going to continue this pattern throughout the whole back of the head, then we'll come back to do some scissor over comb in and we done with the back alright. Now that the back is completely finished, we're going to move on to the side here and what I want to do is actually you know we're going to leave this little bit longer into here, but we are going to cut it around the ear so many times, You'Ll see me as I do this and I like to kind of just push this out of the way and hold this back, so you can see around the ear like so here and we're just going to work our way up around the ear. By leaving this a little bit longer right in through here all right, which we can then clean up and layer, but this is going to set the guide for us and then the section by section. We then continue to follow the guide which you can see underneath and simply just cut this by sometime, pointing into it works so you're you're on the safe side and have to worry about cutting your client and we're going to continue that to where we have a Nice clean line around the ear like we have that you that you're seeing here as you can see it's creating a nice sharp line and look right around the ear area and after we're finished with this, we'll be ready to start layering the sides. Now we've got the base around the ear done. We have the nice the at line. Now we're going to do is actually going to connect now the back here, which we cut and the sides. So now what we're going to do is cut again vertical and we're going to pull everything straight out from the head and we're going to connect the back with this side section here. So we're going to take this relatively close and a lot of times. If we need to do any sort of you know freehand work, we need to cut it when it's shorter or when it's dry we can do so at the end. We can cut it wet and then go back in and cut it dry via scissor over comb. That'S what I like to do a lot. I do a lot of dry cutting. So what we're just gon na do is just continue this throughout the front here and we're going to take this pretty close all the way through and again. If you want to actually come back in and cross check this way or start from the front, you can do the same thing. You can take the diagonal vertical sections and work your way all the way from the front to the back. It'S a good way to cross check it just to make sure that everything is pretty much on point, and even so now. What I'm going to do is now that I'm done with this, I'm going to actually just go over here cross check. Everything make sure everything is on the right plane and make sure everything is pretty well balanced. I'M going to do the same thing on the other side, same exact thing here, and then we ready for the top all right now the sides are complete. What we're going to do is we're going to work the sides and the corners in through the top here, so we're just going to continue working from the side length, starting in through here all the way throughout the top. So we're going to keep it pretty well balanced. This whole haircut actually is a pretty evenly well balanced haircut. The difference in this pixie cut is, is how you know the texturizing and how its styled, but for the most part it's a pretty consistent haircut from you know all the way around. So it's actually pretty even haircut it's just when it's when we do the dry. Cutting and the finishing techniques - that's when the whole thing comes into work, so I'm just going to continue from the sides here, I'm starting on this side. I'M just going to work my way around round this out, as you can see, I'm cutting the corners here and I'm just continuing that all the way through the corner and then working into the top. And if you can follow your guide, it should be a pretty even plane all the way from kind of shorter here working its way through the top all right. So when we're done with the top here, we're going to then come into the front section and we'll be close to being done the front area. What we're going to do is we're actually is going to hold everything straight out from the head on top and we're just going to connect everything together. This way of a nice evenly balanced, proportionate haircut, which will leave us with with this in the front like this, and what we're going to do then, is just really simply just chip into it all right again, using this just a thumb and we're chipping in and We'Re just creating a softer edge right around the front here and that's going to establish our base, and this is just going to give us a good outline, doesn't have to be perfectly even you know again. You want to chip into this, create a little bit of of texture, and you know not this connection, but separation throughout the front fringe area. This way, what we can do is when we go back we'll be able to texturize this alright. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to blow-dry this whole top here all right and then, when we come back after it's blow-dried, then I'm going to actually texturize this and - and we done all right now - that the hair is completely dry. What I'm going to do is I'm going to do some just scissor over comb throughout the whole thing, just to make sure it's all balanced. If I need to go a little shorter in some areas, this is the time to do it, and this going over scissor over comb is really going to help kind of piece it all together. I love like again. I love doing this when it's dry, because you're going to be able to see the results pretty instantly and that's why I love doing scissor over comb, so I'm literally going to do scissor over comb like this, just to kind of and the hair will speak to You because, when you go, when you bring the comb up, whatever hair that needs to be cut, will pop out and that's a huge tip that you can use throughout your whole career um and that's the best way to find it is and to get rid of It is when the hair is dry, like kind of like I'm doing now. Any hair that needs to come off will pop out at you and that's your opportunity to get rid of it and that usually will lead to a very good result because it needs to come off anyway. So I'm just going to continue throughout this whole head here. Doing six over comb and then we'll be ready to start the texturizing technique the front! What we're going to do is we're going to chip in so that the whole front here and we're just going to take nice little chops into the lengths here just to kind of break it up. This way we have kind of some some disconnection all right, and now my favorite part, you all know. I love the thinning, shear okay, so we're using the thinning shear we're just going to come, come in on the top layer here and just using our thumb, we're going to get rid of some of the weight and just to texturize it just to create some. I eat uneven, PC feeling and throughout the top in the front, and this is going to what's going to create the whole texture, and this is what really makes her whole look is the fact that it's very kind of disheveled and almost unbalanced, but also in a Very beautiful way, so just going to continue throughout the whole head with the thinning shear just to remove any excess weight, and you can do this all freehand. It shouldn't be too much more work after this, then we'll put some pace in it and she'll be good to go all right. So, as you can see here, here's the finished. Look, the Emma Watson inspired haircut very cute and it's a it's a very popular pixie haircut not too difficult to achieve, but it's also very, very fun very cute and you can wear this in a various amount of styles. As you can see here, here's kind of one look here where it's a little more disheveled here in the front, and I because of the way we cut it, you can wear it. You know kind of a a little more down. You can wear it over like this. You know. There'S some pictures of her she's got like a little bit of a clip here, there's ones where it's like all coming down this way, but also very kind of textured and separated, which I love. But I think it came out great and I hope you guys enjoyed it well guys there you have it. My Emma Watson inspired haircut hey if it was done a little. You know a year or two ago: that's fine pixie cuts are still in. I think it's a very fun look. Pixie cuts are never going to go out of style, and if you have the courage to do it, I say: do it short hair is still sexy doesn't have to be long. Thank you guys for your support for your comments.
