Hi Sam Villa here I want to share with you away really nice way that you can go in and create some volume. Let'S say that you have a client that comes in Karen. She comes in, she says, keep my link, but I want some volume on the top. What would you do? In most cases, we rely on texturizing what I've been working with a lot. Lately is diamonds, a diamond section up on the top and crown area reason being I've discovered the diamonds get that hair to actually tilt or move back and away from the face which is actually really cool. But what I want to do is share with you. How do you use that diamond to go in and create a sense of volume in terms of bringing some volume into it without really over layering everything, so it's just a manner just going after the diamond. So how do we set up the diamond? You want to go in. You want to find your front to back, so we find front to back we're gon na do that on both sides. So we find in front to back and notice. She'S got a natural left side. Part! Don'T concern yourself. So much with that, okay, once I've got that you find where that line of the middle part intersects with the front to the back place your finger, there find that hairline there find the middle point. There'S the middle point from there I'm going to draw a diagonal II back just to about that parietal Ridge. Where the comb comes off of the head, then I'm going to come through into the opposite side. The front area on the opposite side and the reason I'm going to do that and not do what it might habitually do, which is work in a circle and go in the back area. Your thought process is in the front area, so I want you to continue to think about that front area. So I pop over the opposite side. I'Ve got my pointer for reference of where I go. Where does that diagonal line? Go back to you separate your front to back once you have that fun to back separate it now we're gon na go through and we're gon na look and see. Where do we come off use your comb? If you want where the comb comes off the head, that's where I'm gon na draw from that point back to this point. So now you can see I've got the front of what is looking like a diamond shape. Now, when you take a look at diamonds, diamonds, a girl's best friend, but what size of diamonds well, the diamond is going to be based in terms of the density. So, for example, if I have a lot of hair, my the Diamonds gon na be bigger, maybe 3/4 carats. If I have fine hair, I'm gon na make that maybe a half a carat, a one, carat diamond smaller diamond. Why, Sam Andrew and I really believe that right now we're tilting under cuts and under upside-down, meaning that the Greve shortness that you're gon na start to see everybody's talking about long layers. What we want to do is we want to just share with you a way that you can create volume, but also, at the same time, get that hair to have maybe some long layers or short layers on top, so you're really tipping things down upside down. Where you get to do your shortest on the top, rather than underneath take over the comb, come to the crown area place your fingers. On top of it, I recommend three fingers once you're. There slide your index finger underneath where it touches the comb. That'S where I'm going to draw back to the center back, okay and now I come back over on the opposite side, and now it's just a matter of connecting these dots. So I just connect those two dots. Okay, now, once I've got that karyn, if you want to look up to the ceiling okay, now you can see I've got that diamond or if we look at from the top view, you can see, I've got a diamond once you got your diamond, you have to Look and take a look at it and see if it's balanced, so I'm taking a look at it from a top view. Okay, I can see. I did really well great now. Next thing we need to do that gives you the base of the diamond. What I'm gon na recommend that you do? Is you cut your diamond with a zigzag section by using the zigzag section, you're gon na be able to diffuse what it is that you're going to cut? I don't want to release any of this, but I don't want her right now. I don't want her hair over layered great way to introduce a client to your your knowledge and setting up the comfort ability of the client. So I come back through now. You'Re gon na comb, this back see that diagonal line. When you see that diagonal line, you can see that from the top view. When you see that diagonal line, I want you to comb back over that now. Watch. I'M gon na pick up some of this hair. Here so I'm gon na pick some of that up. It'S gon na go into my Dan decks finger now, I'm gon na come back through and I'm just gon na zigzag right over where that line was and then slice where that line was, and now I've been able to zigzag. My diamond now the reason I'm zigzagging my diamond. Once again, I want it diffused watch again, just a real cool way to do things in a controlled way, not so much in sketching it out. Watch again, there's a diagonal line at the back right side of the diamond index. Finger comes in lays flat comb back to you pick up some of that hair. That was underneath the line of the diamond, bring the comb the white teeth, not the fine teeth over that line now evenly just move your comb up and down up and down over that line. Okay, now slice where that line was where you believe it to us. Don'T worry about being so perfect, your texturizing it now you can start to see. I still have a diamond shape, but now it's getting SIG's AG once again, you do things in a different way and I guarantee you you're going to get clients involved in what you're doing. I really think it's time for us to take the industry back, think say and do things in a different way. Here we go. I saw that line notice. My index finger picked up below that line. I come back through I move up and down try to keep the consistency all the way around in terms of your moving up and down, so your zigzag stays the same. Okay. Now I'm checking it as I go. Looking really good control of that all the way through see, this really saves you from over texturizing it we could easily over texturize things. Now I come to the front I comb there's that line. I see it comb my index finger picked up below that. I come to that Isak zag up and down up and down up and down till I get to the point of the diamond now come through and slice approximately, where you're at once again relax my friends relax. Now I have a diamond shape. So before you cut, I want you to go through and look around check your density, I'm checking my density over the ear checking my density over the year. I seem to have more hair over here, so I'm coming to this side and I'm just going to drop out and notice. I just come through when you drop out. Sometimes they might be a little bit weak on one side just go in. Take the point of the comb that we made for the sectioning part use that as your zig zag and just go in a zig zag, one area that you might need to take up and add more hair over the ear. Now we're ready to cut before we cut. I want you to isolate the underneath, so it's important that we isolate the underneath. We want to isolate the underneath, so we need to pick this back up. We can cut it. What do you mean Sam? Take your dry cutting clips, okay and just isolate them once again, that elastic will hold anything come back through and see you can see. I can cut this and drop it recut it. If I want take a look at it, without going in and picking up some hair that I don't now, I'm gon na come through and I'm going to cut this now. What I don't want to do guys is, I don't want to cut this into a cap. So I'm not going to cut it diagonal because you can see if I cut that diagonal. This is going to be too short here. What I'm gon na do is I'm gon na lift this straight up and I'm gon na cut it square, so it's shorter in the front leading to more length towards the back. Why I want just one a proportional length to fall in this area that I have so the first thing I'm going to do is come through. I'M gon na pick up dry cutting shear, we want to go through and we want to release our length first. So, let's go through that's how you let the comb isolate that while I went to grab my tool now think about. Where do you want to cut it? Look how Sam uses the comb so I'm using a black home on light hair scene about what length do I want. So I tell myself if I cut you here: where are you gon na fall nice? That'S right around that occipital bone we're gon na get some roundness to that. Okay, I'm gon na slide just above that, because I'm gon na go through and you'll see how I'm going to texturize that I want you to come through. I'M gon na chunk off the length, so I just chunked that off. I know I want to get it off so why go through and cut something really, even when we cut something very straight and clean, it's going to take you twice as long to resolve it. Now I'm just gon na Reese, often just the edge just the edge look at me softly and now look at the shear stay stable and we move stable and we move okay. Now I'm gon na pick up a new shear that we've made for you. So the seven inch is going to go down and I'm going to now pick up our InvisiBlend, okay and InvisiBlend Shear watch. I can release this and come back to that and InvisiBlend Shear. This is quite different from the blending shear. I really felt that we needed something that does give you. The texture gives you the texture that you want on an edge rather than working so hard on that. So what we made is we made a very interesting shear called an InvisiBlend. With the InvisiBlend. You get invisible layers, you can't tell where they start or where they end great. When you're cutting blonde hair, because in blonde hair, you can see all the cutting lines. Why does this work Sam? Well, if you look at that, you can see that with this, it's curved it curves in this direction. Now this blade here, the blunt blade is the dullest part of the InvisiBlend. This is the sharpest point why what we did is we made a blade? Pretend that the comb is the hair. Okay, if I place the comb - and I close, what happens - is this blade? Because it are curved this way and they're curved this way, what they're doing is they're actually pushing the hair. So this hair moves this direction as you close on it, here's the result you get so pretend this is the tooth of one section: I'm gon na. Have you hold that for me, my dear, don't drop that okay, okay, here's a section! So imagine you got a blending shear and go boom like this, so you got I'm gon na you're. Looking at a magnifying glass! That'S what it does! It blocks it off! What the InvisiBlend does is it makes it it pushes it because it pushes the hair, it cuts it in a curved motion so that each little tooth does that to the hair. So you get that section, then the next one you get that section. That'S tooth! Next tooth, that section so you're getting small little scalps rather than square individual little spaces with the blending shear great shear watch what it does. Okay, so let's go back and now look how easy I can come through and I can reap ick up what I've just cut. So we've gone through. We cut our diamond, but we went in we chunked. We came back in we point cut to soften the line and now watch how I'm gon na be able to go in okay and watch how the shear works. I'M gon na go through I'm gon na close. Now, that's about you! If you watch really closely, you can see how that hair will get push watch it gets pushed, and now I can slide out with these when you take a big six section like this, with the blending shear you're not able to slide out the only way, you're Able to slide out with the blending shears if you're, slightly taking small sections. Look at the big section. I'Ve got here and I come in and I just slide out and I slide out slide out slide out and you can't even tell where it is that I'm cutting. So I want you to think about almost like a razor defect, but absolutely what a shear does to it. It concept blunt, but because this is moving the hair because of the shape of the teeth, you're getting small scallop small scallop, small scallop, really incredible in terms of when you go through, and you want to texturize now watch when I collapse that all I want is It visually blend I can't want. I don't want you to tell where the lair starts and where it is okay. So when I comb that down, it looks like she didn't, have any hair cut at all, but when we tickle and we move or we touch it watch how frothy that top clown area will be, let's just comb it through okay and look how we can't really Tell where that diamond started and where it ends and InvisiBlend Shear you're going to love it. It'S an arsenal that you're going to need within your arsenal tools now watch. When I touch that, can you see him now how much volume she's getting by simply using a diamond zigzag section size of the carrot based upon the density? Elevating it remember, the angle you cut determines where the length is where the degree of shortness is. So you be creative with the angle you choose go through chunk, it out P point cut, come back in your magical, InvisiBlend, Shear and you're on your way to making your clients happy once again, Sam Villa here with some simple little tricks that we bring to you To help grow your business behind the chair, but most important in today's world, it's about finding out what are the problems and you as a hairdresser behind the chair having us oceans thanks for joining
Comments
Cortney Weyant: Love your tutorials! For someone like me (who went to school for cosmetology, but never finished) this is a great way to brush up on old skills, plus learn some new tricks! The length you go to to explain exactly what you are doing and why you are doing it makes everything so easy to understand! Thank you and keep up the great work!
Joy Beard Sunde: I just watched this video yesterday, and did it to 2 clients today. Amazing results and it was a lot quicker service that all that sectioning through the hair. I dont have those texturizing shears but even without them the diamond shape section really helped me to get a shorter layers without any funkiness and loads of volume in the crown without all the fuss!! Great video!!! Thank you!!
LuCasley 20: As an educator I can tell you that your teaching technique is WONDERFUL!
Emmelien Breeman: Thanks so much for the idea of a diamond shape! I cut my own hair without any real knowledge. I have experimented with different ways of layering my thick, curly hair but the top layer always seemed too heavy. I just cut it like this and it looks great!
Marlene Olson: Wow, Sam....you are a great teacher. Even though I could never in a million years do this, it is fascinating to watch! You should teach ALL stylists your tricks. I have had so many bad cuts, bad perms, etc. And there’s no way to know beforehand if they’re good or not. So now I have resorted to wigs - so much easier. Thank you for this video.
Pamela Hiles: Another amazing lesson! Fantastic technique! So simple! Thank you so much!
Desley Kakoulidis Gallaway: Brilliant skill levels - you’re an amazing stylist and teaching it perfectly to boot also she has lovely hair..... you’re a genius
Maria Valente: I thought Sam Villa was very helpful, informative, and thorough with his cutting technique. I have been a hairdresser for 45 years and I always enjoy watching someone else's way of doing things. You should never think you know it all, you might be surprised at what else you can learn.
jekkuthebold: I love this technique. Use it on my head, looks great straight or curly. So much more volume!
BigEyesSmallMouth: If I had a dime for every hairdresser who's told me "It won't LOOK like layers," only to go home with "shelfy" hair and a see-through perimeter, I could retire to the Riviera. LOVE this video.
Key Preacher: Definitely looking forward to using this technique. Bravo Sam!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills.
Doe Eyes: I loved that!! With my fine hair, I've never had anyone successfully add fullness to my crown without using a couple of (always) expensive gels or foams. Never achieved with just the cut. Now how in the heck do I find a salon in southern Texas that follows this guys teachings????? If anyone can answer that for me is be very greatful!!! ( I'm in the Corpus Christi area.) Doe165
Karen Younger: I love the OCD manner that you approach these lessons. Your joy over a job well done is infectious!

Emily Young: Sam, you're a haircutting genious! Amazing technique, beautiful to watch and amazing result!
Miss S: Brilliant stylist who is clearly at top of his game. I will bear this technique in mind when I want to add some lift to my own hair.✂️
Binha Fabiana: Como eu queria que tivesse tradução pra português
Connie Boyd: I love my hair long. The model with short hair , how you professionally made her hair look fuller and she looks younger. Wow! You are a master in this field.
Nermeen Hamada: Thanks so much for uploading this tutorial. It’s very informative ❤️❤️❤️
LHC2020: Thank you so much Sam. I trained as a hairdresser way back in the seventies but didn't work as one as I got an offer of another totally unrelated job I couldn't refuse! I've since cut my families hair - but never my own. During lockdown I decided to give my long, layered hair a trim, but not having octopus arms or eyes in the back of my head I had to take the ends forward, and over extending didn't do anything for my back layers. Ended up flat as a pancake in back. I watched this and this morning just used the diamond to give myself a PERFECT layer. Volume volume volume!! I couldn't do the zig zag but it worked almost perfectly point cutting the ends for softness. Thank you. What a master teacher!
706linda: Wow. Great tutorial, loved it x
Kristan Gibson: That client was holding onto those shears like her life depended on it beautiful cut! I can't wait to try this technique on my own cloents! Thank you Sam! You're a master!
Bonnie Speeg: Dear Sam Villa. You've convinced me that the hairstylists (and there've been dozens) I've found have been less than 6 who have ever come close to cutting my hair in the manner you are doing. This hair texture is EXACTLY mine...and I've been the guinea pig for the last time and will try to trim my own from now on. Your tutorial here has shown me that only a few are as talented as you....so I don't need to bother going for less. Thank you for this video.
Charles Miles©: You’re a true master Sam and I don’t even cut hair. But I’ve had my share of BAD haircuts I’ve had to fix on myself ♂️ this makes me want to become one and change the world one haircut at a time.
Julia Walsh: This is a well thought-out process. The way it is demonstrated is easy to understand and I'm taking notes so I can try this out on my hair! Thanks for the tips!
Patricia Baldwin: I’m no hair stylist but this is AMAZING!
RamblingRose: Wow, thanks for that Sam! I need that volume on top as well. Now I can do it myself. InvisiBlend shears, eh? Bring em on. Years ago, went to hairdressers and they always told me my hair was this and that, never positive because they did not have a clue. Every head of hair is different but I believe a good stylist knows how to cut and style all kinds of hair and is able to deliver excellent results in all situations.
Dolores Mikolajczyk: Love it!! Beautiful layers!
Rosie Smick: Glad I came across this video!! Never stop learning about hair. I'll try this in my salon! Love the zigzag method. I can see where that alone can make a better blend. My clients are going to love this new approach! Thank you! Rosie
mountaingranma: looks great ! thank you for sharing your talent with everyone. I've been cutting my own hair for years . also cutting my husband's and some friends hair too. I like to cut my bangs and my friends bangs in a "V" shape because it helps hide thinning hair on top. so I appreciate your knowledge. ✂️✌️
Mary Riseling: I love this hair style and its so hard to find someone to cut like this. It's beautiful
rajalakshmi arumugam: Awesome sam. Do more and more ... please educate us and motivate us as always... you are making mind blowing development in the industry for sure. My love and respect to you ... thank you
Sherrie Snyder: Not a hair stylist,but that looked amazing and exactly what I have been trying to get for years the fullness on top . Going soon hope my stylist can do this
Me Justme: Wow! I'm Amazed! I definitely need to add the invisablend, to my tool kit Love it
Diane Mcginnis: I've learned so much from you !! Love your teaching on how to cut hair. I get so many people who love their cuts and styles . Thank you.
Cynthia Ennis: Thanks! Loved it! Used to cut my own hair & no one could tell where the back layers were...it blended very nicely...now I have unruly grays & wish I had this tool! Loved it! Where does someone get these Invisiblend Shears & how much?! Thank you! Looks great!
honey owen: Amazing! I've never seen a stylist who's an artist, I didn't even know it was possible. I'm not anything" hair but I can't stop watching. I think I'm addicted, amazing.
David Campbell: I always learn when I watch Sam work his magic. Education to its highest level. Great job Sam!
Vanessa Milligan: Sam, you're awesome! What an incredible teacher.
amanda rodriguez: This is amazing! I love your tricks, very smart ✊ really considering trying this
tmsouth1: I have been cutting my hair for several years and trying to copy things I have seen stylists do in the years that I did have my hair cut. The way he explains it it wouldn't be hard for someone to get a friend to learn to do this to your hair. It's worth a try.
Bridgette Courts: Thank you for sharing your knowledge, you keep professionalism in the industry making others want to reach higher. I’m about to get my license; looking forward to implementing techniques that will allow me to stand out from other stylist.
An K: That is wonderful, exactly what I was looking for. I tried to explain what I want to my master, and she did crown just all around the head (which made way too short on the sides of my face, looks horrible).
Garnet Muse: You are such a wonderful teacher. I can tell you really love what you do. I cut my in hair so it's really great to come across your video.
callie dayer: I'm a hairdresser and i loved it! Love how the shears di make that little curve!
liliana moreno: Me encantó la clase!! Muchas gracias!!!
Annelies Groot: A perfect crown, a royal solution! Great tutorial :-)
Jennifer Boisseau: This is such an awesome technique and I will be ordering those texture shears. Thanks for sharing!!
Mimi Ramone: As much as I love watching these videos they depress me because you are showing techniques that I’ve already conceptualised and tried to explain to stylists to no avail. Thank you so much for trying to re-ignite a passion in this industry because I personally don’t love the fact that I have resigned to cutting my own hair at this point. If anything you’re just teaching me the skills now. I’m not ready to do anyone else’s hair but I’m getting much more comfortable about doing mine! Thanks again.
Paula Kelly: Awesome cut. I love those blending sheers!
Dharma Dharma: Awesome! Great instruction and great result.
Gayle Kemper: Fabulous I’m a retired hairdresser this is great, wish they had this when I was working , your fantastic.
Genevieve Sosnowski: I Wish I had her hair. You're are a perfectionist. Great video, you really know what you're doing. I only had one good hair cut in my life. I was always pretty good at styling my own hair. I'm 78 now, when I was young and there was a special occasion I went to a beauty shop and always brought a scarf to the beauty shop in case I didn't like the style, and I never did. I have fine hair and now it got thin and it seems most stylists don't care or just don't know how to cut and style thinning hair. You're a genius.
LaniElkhart: This is exactly how I want my crown to be dealt with (cos I NEED volume up there). Surely I hate the straight, blunt cut, and always request they point/spike cut, but still. However, after seeing this fabulous demo, there's H O P E for lil ole me, lol. I'll be sure to show this video to my girl in the hopes her cutting style will change, Thank you, Sam Villa! <3
Natita Campbell: Thank you Sam for sharing this with us.After my thyroid surgery my thick hair became thin maybe this will help in the near future.. Love your work..
Virginia: It's so difficult to find a hair stylist who really knows what they're doing! Where can we find you Sam Villa?
Sierra Campbell: As a hairdresser, I love watching these videos to learn more and bring more to my clients! However, all of the negative comments about hairdressers is very discouraging.. Our job is far from easy. There's so much to learn that no hairdresser ever knows it all. Not even Mr. Sam Villa. It all starts with a good consultation, folks. Learn how to communicate to your stylist what you're wanting and expecting because that is 90% of the reason why things go wrong.
Susan Simpson: I've had the same hairdresser for 20 years. She's a pro, and could have already cut my hair to perfection in the time it took him to describe it. I personally like to see my layers, don't want them to be invisible.
Cheryl Marie: This is great, I started cutting my hair this way in my late teens, 43 now and I still cut my hair using this fantastic technique.
Sandra Montes: Sam I appreciate all that you conveyed to us, you provide us with a means to be successful, even if we are just the average person.
MagicDragonPuff7: Very well explained! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Hair is geormetry: Reading the comments, I agree. You can’t find stylists that can cut hair let alone layers. I’m a stylist And hove this technique. I also do a technique where I take similar partings and cut in shorter hair to support the weight of the longer hair and then pull the hair up 90 degrees and put in light surface layers. You never end up with Shelfy layers. Stylists aren’t safe from getting shelfy layers either. I had a fellow salon owner /former co-worker give me one of the shelfiest layered haircuts I’ve ever seen, it was so bad I questioned whether or not he liked me after that cut. Ha.
M.U. G.: I'm not a hair dresser and still watched this to the end! The guy sounds sooo smart and you can tell he knows his business...Great video!
The Chayil Women: I loved your video, you presented it very well. I'm not a hairdresser, but I cut and color my own hair due to too many terrible experiences at the salon.
Ameena Zabeen: fantastic technique, loved it. soooo good. works for me
Winnie Ngo: I love how detailed this video is.
Dianna Rambo: Love my texture scissors!!! I use them every day!! Thanks Sam!!!!
Tallis In Wonderland: He is really knowledgable and skilled. Don’t think I’ve ever had my hair cut by a hairdresser who knew any of this. If I knew this I’d be showing off to every one of my clients!
Jeannine Daniel: Love this! I’ll be using this one
Patricia Dekker: So, how do we find someone who is trained with your techniques and the invisiblend shears? You just did exactly what I’ve tried to explain for years and I’ve never found anyone who cuts like you do. You’re brilliant and your passion shows. Thank you!!!
Vero Vi: I cut my own hair since 2011 because any hairdresser haven't known how to do their job right and I was so tired of paying for something that I didn't like. Now, after ruining my hair so many times ( at least for free this time ) I love when people tell me how great my hair looks . For this reason I'm really interested to become a hairdresser A GOOD ONE.
Sooner boy: This technique is brilliant! I just followed your instructions. I could not be more pleased. The top of my head has always been flat.
Sofia Rose: I tried this cut DIY and it looks brilliant, exactly how I wanted it...
Roshan Bhakta: I'm not a hair dresser either. But watching this makes me want to become one !!
Sanam Khushnaseeb: That was one of the precious technique u shared it with us with all detailed explanations. Many many thanks to the expert
Tina Hill: Sir you need to do some tutorials for those of us who trim own hair in between full salon visits . I wish i could find a stylist that uses your techniques . I used your fringe twist technique on my ten yr old great niece and it worked great and she says she feels beautiful !!! you truly are amazing . You or someone you have taught could probably fix the poorly done cut i am currently attempting to grow out . Love your tutorials and look forward to each one !
Danix Cher: Impressive technique and explanation. Thanks!
Carol S: Love this!! I'm going to try it today!
Bliss Mnkandla: I wish you taught me in college. Hope one day i can get a class with you. Perfect and so easy to understand
Jeanne Patrice Cuddy-Lamoree: Thanks for this info. I will use it the next time I get my hair cut. I'm an old woman. I have never found a hair-cutter who could do anything I really like, even when I bring pictures. My single biggest complaint is that they NEVER give me any lift at the crown of my head. They just want to blow it dry, even though I tell them I'm more of a wash and air-dry person for day-to-day hair.
Nat T.: Been using this technique in the UK for many years. Great to use with clients with fine texture hair.
gauri sengupta: Thank you for explaining so well.
R H: I have a hard time finding a hairdresser in my area who is good with fine hair. I tend to cut my own hair because of this. I am familiar with pivot point but never really learn the details in school which reminds me of your technique. Decided to try it and I have to tell you it works fantastic! But you knew that! I have very thin, fine hair where my scalp is visible in front and flat in the back. But now I actually have volume in the back! This gives me a lot more options for different hairstyles. I admit cutting my hair short on top of my head was scary but what do I have to loseI I did it and you can't tell other than I have fantastic volume! I LOVE, LOVE this technique!! Thank so much for sharing your knowledge! I am now a true follower!
Miriam Maldonado: Five years ago! Nice job Mr Villa. It reminded me Omar Rivas, hair stylist, top instructor. Everybody cuts hair, but not everybody knows how to do it.
KAYANATH BASHAR: Intellectual and funny...ur a fascinating combination. I love the passion and drive you put into ur work, it's addictive. It amazes me that in each haircut u carefully consider physics, ergonomics and happiness of ur clients. I'm not a hairdresser but I love watching ur videos. I came across ur video's when researching before cutting my own hair. The first video I watched was how to non-visibly thin hair from back of the head. U see I have thick 3b curly hair, and every where I go, here in South-east Asia, the hairdresser get annoyed with my hair and suggest I permanently straighten my hair. It's ironic, the most common hair type in south asian is openly unaccepted. I used to chemically straighten my hair for many years, but now for the last few years I'm trying to embrace my natural curls. Sam, do u think u could make a video for simple DIY haircut for curly and straight hair people. It would be a great help. Thank u for sharing ur gift of knowledge with us. Best of luck.

Jean Keats: Amazing shears! I love Sam Villa. He's a hair genius. He seems like a lovely person too.
S K: You are a genius. I pray I find a hairdresser who watches your videos and learns. I am yet to find one who truly knows what they are doing. Especially the part where you mentioned how one can have a weaker side. With lower density of hair on one side. I have that problem, but no hairdresser to address it.
Beth Lovett: Love that hair cut and volume she has. GREAT JOB!
