How-To Cut The Perfect Face Frame

Michael Shaun Corby of Living Proof demos cutting the perfect face frame

Hello, modern salon - it's so great to be here with you today, we're actually in a little different location. We have our smart methodology, training going on with dozens of new educators and existing educators from the living proof team they're going to be out there teaching you the smart methodology soon, but I thought I would give you a little sneak peek at something you're going to See which is the perfect face frame everytime, it's called axis, cutting it's going to give you a beautiful soft face frame. You can take it to a fringe or you can use it just below the jawbone. It'S really up to you and we're coming here to you today in Las Vegas. No we're not a casino but we're here at our partner at swipe. So I want to give them a shout out as well. So, to start this, since it's the frame, we're going to work in the front of our style and what I like about this technique axis cutting for frame is it's really nice and that you're following what she has naturally you're, not worried about you know, is it Going to be perfectly lined up in a section perspective, but rather you're really working with our natural growth. So the first thing I want to do is to just lightly section and I'm just going to follow the hairline a little bit, and so I don't even use Clips. Sometimes I'll use the chopstick to hold the air, but for the most part, when I'm dry haircutting. You'Ve gone all through through all that work to make a beautiful perfectly flat iron section, so make sure you keep it. Another thing we use was our rock star products, our humidity shield, it's in our no frizz franchise and it's really great for making sure that when you're dry, haircutting you're not going to get that fluff up and that frizz. But everything is going to stay really smooth and controlled. So now what I'm going to do is I'm going to take my first subsection and I want it to be right here at the center of her nose and get ready here. There'S going to be a little bit of magic happening and I know it seems crazy, but here it goes you're going to see how to put the perfect face flame on all your clients in just one cut. So first thing I'm going to do is hold the hair on the hairline, give it a nice little comb out, then I'm going to just give that a twist so just twist that hair until it's resting right there between the eyes. So now I have fingertips between the nose and the eyes there now keep everything nice and neat by combing it and then just put that comb inside and then lower. Let'S say that she wants a face frame about to the lip. Take the comb out of the way, and now I'm just going to start cutting and moving at the same time through this section. Now because that's a twist or a tort section as I like to call it, it's now going to consider the entire face, shape and look at that beautifully framing the face after just one cut, but wait, there's more we're going to do it again and then everything Will be perfectly framing her face, so the next section I'm going to take two just in front of her ear, almost at what we call our East Point on the head, I'm going to take this entire section, bring it to my starting point there. All these sections, you want to make sure that you're going to Center, it's very important because then you're going to have a nice balance in the hair, and now we don't have to do anything because that beautiful guide tells us what to do and from that guide. We'Re just going to start pushing with this year and cutting all the way through those ends, and this just gives you that beautiful we've tried everything, we've tried, combs and slicing and dicing, and all things and point cutting you don't have to do the point cutting because It'S beautifully doing it for you and now on the opposite side, you just do the same thing, but your hands can't completely rotate in all directions unless you're some sort of contortionist and then good for you, if that's the case, but what we need to do. Those of us who aren't contortionist is just take this same size section on the opposite side and I'm going to pick up that section and I'm going to hold it just like you did on the other side right. But now I'm standing behind my model here and I'm just going to do that same motion, but I'm going to bring all this hair and then come and stand on the opposite side. So it's really the same exact motion, you're standing in the same place, but you're starting on the opposite side, and that's what's going to give it that nice rule twist. So now we have a nice beautiful guide from our previous section and then I'm just going to cut out and up and boom they're balanced on both sides every single time. I could take this from the lip. I could take this from the eye. The sky is the limit. This could go all the way into a fringe shape, even and that's what makes it so beautiful again holding the entire section. Look where I'm standing, I'm standing on the left side right, so you want to start the left side on the left side, I'm now with comb in hair, keeping everything nice and neat and tight, I'm looking for the center, I'm going to put it between the eyes Again, combing it nice and neat keep that locked in always look for your nice beautiful guide. Why make a guide if we're going to ignore it and then cutting straight up getting all that hair and beautiful soft face frame every single time I love it looks amazing. Looks beautiful, I think Maggie wants, I think, she's my next client for this. After a while, it is a tradition to style you every year for Naha, so so excited about that.

Maria Keswell: Will this cutting technique work just as well on curly hair?

Abdullah Pasha: Nice easy trick

Ani: Beautiful but too hard to try on mine

Sara Davies: I was looking forward to the final outcome, but the video ends with it still pushed over her eyes. ??? She's not going to walk around like that unable to see. I want to see how the layers fall when she pushes it back off her face. So weird... :(

Sam L: Well I know what I'm doing next exam session at 3 am

Bec Gedge: Um I disagree with this, I think this could be messed up very easy. Maybe ok on one side but then you try to do the exact same flip on the other side? Sometimes more difficult on the other side. There's way easier ways to create perfect face framing layers and less room for error. I believe some people try to make up different ways to cut to "look good" or be different. I don't even like how these end up looking anyways. I think around the face especially you need to see exactly what hairs you're cutting and immediately how they're falling. My opinion, I'm a hairstylist and love to see different ways of doing things just not this one.

Observer44: Genius hairstylist..
