How To Cut A True Pixie Haircut | Short Hair Tutorial

What'S up guys welcome to today's class super excited to be here with you guys see you guys blowing up in the chat. Like always, thank you guys so much for joining me today. So i'm using two different tools. I'Ve got! This is available on our online store shop, fse og's in the chat. Please write the website, so everybody knows shopfse.com for free salon, education. This is my scissor created by mizutani love. This thing it's on there it's for sale, it should be. You should see it. I think on the front page, but just go through it and then the cecibon comb. I love this thing it's available on there as well. So if you guys are looking for any new tools, i'm going to work diagonal slight diagonal back partings all the way through it and i'm going to use the looser teeth of the comb for now, because i don't want a ton of tension on the hair. I want to bring the hair out natural tension and then cut to keep my line nice and balanced. I don't want to pull the hair, especially if they have any cowlicks or anything. I don't want to pull the hair too much from where it wants to live. Comb, the hair back and make my first parting, i'm going to bring this hair out to my finger, bring the hair to me. I'M gon na cut it nice and close to the head, but it's still gon na have a little bit of a softer feel because i am gon na keep it a little bit longer. For now, i'm gon na go in and do a little bit of scissor over comb work we're working on getting more worldwide options. We do have quite a few things that we ship to the uk all right, a couple, more sections, as i work through now. I want to cut this in half, i'm not scooping up all this hair here, i'm just going to take some of it, pull it into my hand and right over top of where it lives, go through and cut. Now. One thing i want to stress is not to over direct too much so this will be our last section on the side here again coming out from where it lives. So there is our first side right there everything's pretty consistent throughout. You can go in and do a little scissor over comb work. If you want to just to detail it a bit, i'm gon na go through soften this literally dusting the ends not taking too much off. What i'm gon na do is i'm gon na. I would look in the mirror straight ahead: let's start combing my client's hair back and i would start looking for where that kind of matches up on the opposite side start to comb it and then i'll make some adjustments back. So you can see the other side now i comb this hair back again, i'm just going to work back to the ear from the hair back. So here's where things change a little bit body position wise as you're working through, so it doesn't start to drop down. So that you stay consistent with your elevation throughout the section here we go now. How do you find the guide for both sides? I like to cut an error on the side of being longer gon na sound a little generic. I just err on the side of it being a little bit longer and then i can take a look at the two sides and really just match them up with my eyes, might sound a little crazy, but you can do it and then i know that all I got to do is just dust a little bit more off this and that will match it up to the opposite side. Okay, so now i've got my panel i'll do the same thing, i'm going to come up just dust it. This is cutting it now horizontally. Sorry, if i'm in the way there it's now cutting it horizontally, so you're just cross checking your section through all right and we'll smooth that out and style. It later take a diagonal back parting like that comb, that back out of the way, and i'm just going to continue working through um, just an evolution of of thoughts. I go here, keep this nice and saturated. So i can see. Thank you becca. I appreciate it. Keeping that saturated, so i can really see guideline and everything that i'm creating. So here we go and the hair out see my guide right here and the hair cut. Remember we're working a line and the hair is coming straight out from where it lives. Now we're going into the nape like that, creating that line there's my line right. There continue my diagonal back partings. This is where things become a little bit more difficult, continuing the consistency of bringing that new hair all right, so we're just working just want to continue working these lines throughout again, don't go on top of that crown. Let the hair start to just come to you at this point. Instead of you starting to follow up around the head, people constantly talk about horizontal cutting above horizontally cutting about vertically and how it makes it different doesn't make it different a different way of cutting it. So the outcomes end up being different, but that's because it changes your body position changes your thought process, so you think about things differently. So then your outcome becomes different. If you understand both ways, your outcome won't be different. Continue, this parting backwards. You guys can't see that so now we're back to the right side. We'Ve only got this tiny bit to cut now, so i want to connect these two sides together, working diagonal back i'll cross into those other sections, and then that will allow me to cross check this here now i'll, be able to see the guide and i'll just Connect those two together so moral of this story guys this is pretty simple as long as you stay consistent and cut over top of your party as soon as you go away from that start building weight where you didn't want it, that's where it becomes much harder. So remember that back comb is a great way to pull the guide up to that new section body position is super weird right now again, don't round up the head everything coming out so that it builds weight. This will be my last section here so now. I'Ve got this top, which is super long. You guys could decide. Do you want this to be a disconnected pixie cut? I mean i'm not going to decide today we're doing a true traditional, but in the salon you can decide, because this is how you could cut a disconnected pixie as well. Go here directly over there's my guide, sorry and i said parallel to the floor. I'M not parallel to the we're gon na work. Parallel to changing my mind, i'm allowed to do that and i'm going to bring the hair out i'm going to cut a line straight up to start, which will leave a little bit of length here, i'm not going to keep all that length, but i want it For now, because i want to see how the calyx reacts cut, that in half move to the next pivoting around, i'm straight out from where it lives, cutting a straight line. Short short point up parallel to the wall. Now you can see that bevel starting to happen same thing here, right out a guide comes from underneath. If i was cutting a stationary guide, i would obviously be pulling all that new hair to the stationary guys i'll scoop up both sides, but my last comb would be to pull that guide. Over top of the new section got that cut. You could see that little bit of weight through there now i'm going to change things up a little bit. Do some point cutting on top of this section, i'm going to bring everything straight up. You can see now that weight line that we've created on the top from going straight out. I wanted to blend this, and now i want to take some of that excess weight off. So i'm going to come up here and then i'm going to point cut in so instead of it being straight out like it was we're going up, i'm going to point cut because i want to start creating some texture point gun now. If they have a crazy calyx, leave it a little bit longer in that area, that's okay! You don't have to cut everything. Exactly the same length length helps control that calorie again up over top of the section point cut through direct up point cut. You see it starts to pop some texture, so we're cutting it flat across the top like this. That'S leaving weight here, because this is coming all the way up. So there's going to be a slight corner and something here with a slight corner: there we're going to come over, connect these two together, so just working through the top. This is also a point where you need to make the choice: do you want a longer frame? If you want a longer fringe, then you might want to start over directing bat at this point today. We'Re going traditional, pixie, nice and short do not want to cut or over direct it back um. I want this shorter push it forward over the top. No over direction on this, and i will cut into this fringe to make it more fun and suitable, there's that so now i wet that down, and i'm just going to take a little bit from this section, i'm going to blend the line parallel to the side Of the head i'll bring this hair out and i'll cut straight up. Now we blended that side. So now we just got to do the same thing on this left hand side, and then we will be ready to start styling and then refining the haircut so uh great question. Amy great question: is this a square layer as of right now in the back or in the sides and the top i create i'm creating a square but not square, like you think, like not square like this, even though that is what we're creating um. So if you go to school - and you learn this way, this is square yes, but square, as in i'm creating a line that goes straight across this way and a line that does go straight across this way. It'S a flat line on the sides, though we created round layers, so we followed the head shape and created a round layer. You got to separate those two, so it's not a full square haircut. Both older nose figure out where the heck i'm at now to the top take those same sections hold them up in the air grab from the opposite side, just to see the more of a guideline. Over top of where that section comes out and cut check our length, remember this front part here: i'm not pulling the hair back because it would create too much length into the front all right getting fun. Now i'm going to blow it dry, i'm going to do a little scissor over comb work i'll tilt her head down. You see some of those longer parts, i'm going to scoop the hair up into my comb and i'm going to cut across now this. So here i'm going to round off the weight line now like we did in the rest and then i'll just point cut into it, but somebody's saying: how do you take the nape shorter and not have it look like a hard line? My recommendation is scissor. Leave it a little bit longer scissor over comb it to the length you want, but lifting this hair up and cutting it here makes it shorter right in here, but leaves a little bit of length around the edges. So then, you can just go in and point cut into it make it nice and soft natural, broken kind of feel to it. Last thing i want to do, of course. This is why i came out with this thing why it's my favorite tool and that's the tri-razor, i'm going to show you guys a couple tricks top here to create some texture. This is great for men's cutting and women's cutting doesn't matter. It creates texture in all of it side that cuts 100 of the hair right here, so you can do traditional razor cutting. Then you've got a texture, 25 side that will take out 25. If you cut the hair this way and then you've got fifty percent, you can take out and cut the hair. This way, all right, so almost drawing an x on the top. Let me go here: draw my x comb, this hair back, take my velcro clip and just slide it into the hair. That'Ll keep it held away from me and then i go in here, texture 25 and if they have super thick hair i'll go right at the base and if they have skinnier hair, then i'll go mid. Shaft and i just slide into the hair. And then that takes out 25 and what that'll start to do is create this. Like really cool, notched, texture in the haircut and it'll break up that perfect kind of feel to add in some texture into the haircut now, i'm going to come back the other way. You'Ll see when i comb it out, you can see that texture see those little channels, but when you put product in it it just comes to light. Now, i'm just going to go in a little detail into the front. This detail, work pinch cut inch cut again. Somebody that wants a soft front for their hair. Just really, you can take any little pieces that you see. You want to create a little texture with or remove a little weight like here if it feels a little heavy, a little weighted uh. What i can do section away some of this length, because i like the length underneath here i want it to be nice and soft flip. This up, velcro clip holds the hair perfect right out of my way. Now i can take my 50 and just kind of carve through it um. You won't have any problems. It'S not going to pull the hair. It'S kind of fun too, like you go through here this little part, this kind of stuff - i can just literally, do all day, but i won't make you guys watch that here now look at all that extra movement fun. You can style this. However, you want, if you want it to be a little bit more messy can be, doesn't have to be. You know perfect, i think that's you're, seeing the celebrities that are wearing their hair like this. This is more my style just having ton more texture, texture all over the place. You know that kind of vibe, so that'd be a fun little collab that me and him could do it'll, be fun too johnny. If i just mail you this head and you just take it shorter it'll, be pretty sweet all right guys. Thank you. So much i'll see you later
