I'm a retired hairdresser and have only cut my hair myself once. I'm thinking you are a hairdresser and if you aren't you did amazing on that cut. Love it!!
I shaved my head almost two years (video on channel before I lost 50lbs)ago just bc my hair was fried from dying it and I always wanted to shave it. People continuously told me they wished they could pull it off or they wished they were confident enough to do it. Gender roles for hair are ridiculous. You’re the one washing and styling it, do what you want! It was the most freeing experience ever! Love your hair!
My hairdresser told me a few months back that I have fine hair, but I have a lot of it. To me it's the same as telling me you have pennies, but you have a lot of them. Practically worthless. My hair is also stick straight. I have been fighting myself for the last month not to go into the bathroom and grab the hubby's clippers. No one, not my mom (may she rest in peace), my sister, my husband like me in short hair. I wear it up every, Every, day with a clip on or hair wrap piece. I have an appointment with my stylist in 2 weeks. Thinking of saying the heck with it and getting a pixie. But my other problem is, I get up a 3 am to be to work a 5 am, and I am NOT a morning person.
This is the most fun I have had watching a hair cutting tutorial. And it looks so darn good. You're beautiful and this cut suits you so much better than the last. Thanks for the inspiration.
May I tell you, from the bottom of my heart, you are one brave soul! Truly. I went to Cosmetology School in the mid 70’s I have done many many hundreds of haircuts. Your is my favorite style. I wore a signature Dorothy Hamill for, about, oh, 35 years. I have baby fine hair, and it suited me. But never(ever, never ) would I cut my own hair. Brave woman. I can trim my bangs, but that is it. You have nerves of steel. And you and your haircut are really cute! It was fun watching!
Thanks so much Linda! I’ve been doing my own hair for years (with varied results🤣) and really just posted this video because so many people ask how I do it. It was not really my intention to be a instructional video. Anyway glad you enjoyed it and thanks for taking the time to comment!
My husband always cuts his own hair in the bathroom with a couple mirrors. I see these videos and I am definitely impressed that people can do that. He cuts my hair for me every couple months and he does the full sectioning and pinning up my long hair and then letting it down in increments to trim each layer. I estimate it takes him about twenty minutes start to finish, and a large part of that time is the sectioning and letting down each layer rather than the actual cutting. I agree with you that using the clippers looks like fun, but my two teen age boys fired me from giving them haircuts when they were quite young. I do like to watch him do their haircuts and he has also given haircuts to friends of mine, but no one will let me cut their hair. Last month I had a couple friends visit to grill on the deck and both asked hubby for a haircut. One just a trim on her long hair, the other wanted her overgrown pixie cut short, which he did with the clippers. He did a great job, but I would have been too afraid to cut her hair with the clippers like he did.
Keri Hatgirl section definitely gives you more control! If you take the time to section it makes the actual cutting much easier. Did he go to cosmetology or barber school or did he just figure it out himself? Either way it’s a good time to have those skills since who knows when salons will be open for good! Also I would say that the hardest clients I’ve ever had are teenage (14-16ish) boys. Super picky! So I would be a little relieved that the hubby is taking over that job🤣
He learned it along the way after he has a friend that was a hairdresser show him how to cut her hair. As for giving my two teen boys their haircuts, he has easily given each over a hundred haircuts over the years. They tell him how they want him to cut their hair and he does. Both are very picky about their hair and they like his work. I have had friends, teachers and parents of my boys’ friends ask where I take them to get their haircuts as he does such a great job. He has no intention of getting a license to start another career, but he has no problem giving a haircut to one of my friends when they ask. My mother thought it was terrible that I had him cut hair, she thought I should go to the salon and pay for haircuts. A couple years ago, she got a bad haircut at her salon that she paid too much for and commented that my husband would have done a better job. Well a few months later when she was visiting while my boys were getting their haircuts, she mentioned she needed her hair cut, and I told her that she was next, have a seat and get a haircut. Well she actually took a seat on the stool and she had him trim an inch off her shoulder skimming bob. She was happy with the results and after that she talks about how much she in saving. Go figure.
A great look! I've been a Pro Hairstylist 💇 for more decades than I'd like to admit. Cutting my own hair takes about 3 times longer than cutting a client 😂
Wow...your haircut looks so great...and has probably grown out again!! And you’ve encouraged me to carry on cutting my own hair. I’ve done it since the beginning of the pandemic and found it addictive!! I’ve even had complements from a hairdresser! But I need to scale up now and get thinning sheers.
Thank you! I am a cosmetologist and I've cut my own hair for a long time. I am more impressed with people who are NOT hairdressers who cut their own hair!
I wish I saw this before going to the hairdresser. I went today and yesterday and my haircut is still awful. Tomorrow I'm trying with the clippers. Husband won't help I'm doing it myself. Thank you so much you look great
Wow.. i really admire of your braveness. You shave and cut your own hair, for goodness sake!! You did it look so fun and playful for me to watched. And you do look good in the end. Awesome.
This was super helpful. Thank you! It's exactly the look I'm aiming for, and while I'm not the same slim face line you are, I've got at least some idea now on how to get close to this look. Hopefully, lol. Cheers!
Great job explaining the process and the end results were very attractive! Only one thing , I would have liked to have know what kind of clipper size she used to shave her head!
Awesome!! Just looking at you cutting your hair made me feel so much lighter. My God I am so fed up with my hair. Wish I had your skill and confidence to do it to my hair. I am definitely going this short when I get to my hairdresser. This lockdown length and bulk on my head is driving me mad!! Urghh!! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. You look so fresh and beautiful with this new haircut. Just amazing you did it all by yoursef!! Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks so much Shelly!😊 I am a hairdresser and I never felt so loved and appreciated then after a few month of lockdown. Everyone was saying how much they missed seeing their hairdressers. It really made me feel the ❤️. I’m sure your hairdresser is missing you too.😁
It came out fabulous. I took away a more important thing than a haircut. Your sunny attitude is so endearing and warm. It made me realize I'm so serious and no fun at all most of the time. I need to lighten up and find fun again. I have chronic pain and it's really affected my whole attitude about life. Thank you for reminding me what it's like to be so positive. i'm working on it from now on. Much appreciated.
Oh wow Joan! I really appreciate your very kind comment. I have tons of days when i'm no fun either... and chronic pain is no joke! But if you're the kind of person who would take the time to leave such an uplifting, encouraging comment on a stranger's video then I know you have a selfless heart.
ditto I can sympathize chronic pain is no joke, keeps me from going places esp. for doing things like shopping even sitting in my wheelchair for 2 hours is a stretch.
I've got that same bug in my bonnet; so thanks for the video, I know it will be really helpful for when I cut mine. You did a great job with the cut, and it looks great on you!
@@thestacystory166 I did it! It was my first time using the clippers on myself and I left the top quite a bit longer (for now), but I think I did OK and now I have the confidence to keep practicing. Thanks again.
Oh my days, this is a fantastic video. It looks amazing, gorgeous style, you're so clever. Lockdown has me desperately needing my pixie cut ✂️ back, thanks for the inspiration yo do it myself 🙏🙌❤😘
I trimmed my own Bob this morning because I love the angle its on and didn't want anyone to snip it off differently and i thought that took courage! i am so happy with it, but after seeing this girl you are one courageous young lady it looks great.
Oh that’s awesome! Good for you! I love it when it all turns out the way you want it to❤️. My philosophy is I know it’s not going to be as good as when another professional cuts it but it will be better than before.
Beautiful! So refreshing! I am so sick of everyone having the same long straight hair! They play with it all the time and keep getting it in their eyes. I let my hair go gray and have it cut short. Life is good!
That is true i see a lot woman for year have the same hair cut and color I can't have same cut, i cut my hair every 6 or 1 year different styles and colors right now i have that style i love it
I love your video! I watched this laughing the entire time because you sound me talking to myself in my head while I cut my own hair. You're just saying it out loud. You're so right! Thin/fine hair looks so much better shorter. I have fine hair, but it grows very fast so I always over cut it knowing it will come right back. Plus, it has so much more volume and shapes my face well! Your pixie turned out great!
I remember first seeing this video maybe a year after you uploaded it? I'd not cut my hair through lockdown and waiting on vaccines, so I was tempted to just chop it myself. This is my exact haircut I've had for a long time and your hair is exactly the same type as mine. Well, I never got up the nerve to do it myself and started going to the salon again. Then a few months ago I decided I was going to do it! I hate going to hair salons, especially since I'm always asked "are you SURE you want it that short?!" It's an argument every time. I even started using clippers on the back to undercut it as high/short as I want so they'd not have a choice about it. Anyway, I remembered this video and spent a day or two digging through short hair/pixie cut YT videos looking for you and finally found it again! This time, I'm doing it! Thanks for keeping this video up, it would've driven me bonkers if I'd never found it again! I do have one question. The additional cutting/fixing in the back you did later, did you do it with the texturizing shears? Thanks!
Excellent. I believe you’re a professional hair dresser who’s able to do her own hair cut. The way your hands move so fast and the cut is so smooth You are 100% a professional Love it
WOW….what a great job! Love it! Have been cutting my own short hair for years and do have 1 sugg for you……hang that hand mirror on the shower rod behind you. Thn you can look into each mirror while cutting. I also make sure I have a lighter background bc I have brownish-gray hair. But your best comment was….it’s hair and it WILL grow back! 👍🏻👍🏻
Good job!!! I can tell you’re a Hairstylist. If not you should be! I used to cut my own hair. For 30 years, I didn’t go to a salon! I graduated Cosmetology school in 1981 but never worked as a beautician. Nice cut!!! Wish you lived near me, I’d have you do mine. I can’t do it anymore since neck surgeries.
WOW! How "easy! All you have to do is have such nice hair and a face, have such dexterous hands and a good dose of courage and the result is guaranteed to come - GREAT !!!
Love it!! I cut mine, too. But, still have a little to much in the back as you had. I do wish you had shown how you went back and got rid of that. But, wow it looks great!
Thank you so much!😊 When you say too much in the back are you talking about the neckline or the weight line? I went back with a #1 around the neckline and used my thinning shears along the weight line to blend it out some.
Thank you so much Regina!😊😁🙏 I’ve been cutting my own hair for a while and I’ve messed it up pretty bad before but it always grows back. So After seeing the worst case scenario I have become a little more relaxed about it.🤣
Oh my word! I love it! I've been trying to decide whether to cut a pixie again after letting it grow out for a year and a half. I'm convinced the pixie will be coming back soon!
Absolutely love it!! You did an amazing job and made it look so easy, sure it isn't that easy. But when I get home after my nightshift I am going to watch this again as I give myself the same haircut. We are in lockdown till mid July so no hair dresser for me. At this point I am so ready to shave my whole head but this is a way better alternative. Thank you so much for this amazing video. Can't wait to get cutting!!!! xxxxx Given I am a nurse and not a stylist this will be so satisfying as long as it turns out. But hell it's only hair.
Thank you so much Amanda!😊🙏 I am a cosmetologist (semiretired) and I originally made this video because my friends asked how I was able to cut my own hair. I have messed it up really badly before but like you said, it’s only hair. It grows! Best of luck to you!!!
Well done, you did a great job. I cut hair for the first time yesterday - this pandemic has prompted me to watch lots of these tutorials. My mom was a hair dresser in her past life and she got me to cut the back of her hair under her direction and tomorrow I am cutting a friends hair. Hope I do as good a job as you have done.
Thank you so much! And I believe that’s called self efficacy. It’s a new term for me but I’m pretty sure it’s the personality trait that causes that self reliance.
Indeed! You took me back to developmental educational psychology. Lol I also agree with something you mentioned, about learning how to do something the correct way, and then adapting your own method of doing it.
Wow! Super brave! Great job cutting your own hair. However I wouldn’t call that a pixie, more of a bob. I was a hairdresser for 35 years and it’s not that easy to cut your own hair. Kudos
It's what is referred to as a pixie today - It's not the old pixie from years ago where it was short all over and fringy around the face - I wear a bob and it has a bit of length and angles back to front - I guess and time goes by the names of different styles change
You're amazing!!! 🤩 Apart from your talent as a hairdresser you have the loveliest voice and are so funny! Plus those facial expressions had me in stitches 🤣 Ever thought of doing Voice-over work at all? I could listen to you talking all day 😌❤
Oh wow! 😊 Thank you so much! I actually have done voice over work for dog training videos (I know, random) but I never thought of my voice as being lovely. That's so sweet!😁🙏
I wear exactly the same haircut as you except I have shorter bangs I'm letting them grow. However I have been unhappy with the way my hairdresser has been cutting it someone else did it better and they moved away so I followed your advice and my hair turned out beautiful ! I want to thank you!
Once I got very sick of my overgrown Bob, and grabbed a scissors and fists of hair, chopped and chopped. I’ve never gotten so many compliments on my hair! But wouldn’t recommend it , I think I was very lucky
Thanks so much for your comment! 😁🙏 I totally agree with you. I originally made this video not as a tutorial but just to show people how I cut my own hair because they always asked “how in the world do you do that?!” I never suggest cutting your own hair. I think of these as informative videos. For people dead set on cutting their own hair regardless of what I suggest. People like me🤣

You should consider getting a short permed pixie cut ✂️ 😉 I love ❤️ my short permed pixie cut ✂️ 😀
been there done that it was made me feel sassy, it was freeing
You are one brave and confident woman. Great job.

Well done girl .... You look fantastic and younger !!! 👏👍
Thank you so much!!
Love your hair impressed how you cliped it up and wore a cape well done
thank you so much T E!
Unbelievable! You did it great.
Wow! Thanks so much Beatriz!😊
WOW! How "easy! All you have to do is have such nice hair and a face, have such dexterous hands and a good dose of courage and the result is guaranteed to come - GREAT !!!
I don’t know about guaranteed because I’ve given myself some pretty bad haircuts before!😊😁🤣
@@thestacystory166 But this time you succeeded - congratulations and greetings from Prague
@@mariepohorelska1909 thank you so much ☺️
Love it!! I cut mine, too. But, still have a little to much in the back as you had. I do wish you had shown how you went back and got rid of that. But, wow it looks great!
Thank you so much!😊 When you say too much in the back are you talking about the neckline or the weight line? I went back with a #1 around the neckline and used my thinning shears along the weight line to blend it out some.
I have no problem with the neck line.I was a little concerned about the using the thinning shears to much.
@@barbshofner1685 that is a valid concern! Next time I do a cut I’ll blend out the weight line and show how I do it 👍🏻
@@thestacystory166 Thank you
Wow you did a great job! Love the cut! You are so calm about it all. 😊
Thank you so much Regina!😊😁🙏 I’ve been cutting my own hair for a while and I’ve messed it up pretty bad before but it always grows back. So After seeing the worst case scenario I have become a little more relaxed about it.🤣
How are you doing 😊😊😊👋
It will be perfect in a few weeks when the back grows in a bit - Love it!
Thanks so much Carol!😊
Agree. I had my hair cut & shaved at back & it was just too short for me When it had grownl out a month I loved it time to get it cut again.
Agree. In the back, it look is more masculine. I one month or so, it's going to be more feminine. But this cut suit's her very well indeed.
That haircut looks better than some I have seen coming out of a salon.
Aweee, thank you so much Connie!😁🙏😊
Wow! Beautiful job!🥰
Kim Hoffkins thanks so much!😊
Great haircut! Suits you very well and you look gorgeous! Your tutorial is very helpful. Wish I could show it to my hairdresser...
Oh wow you look amazing!! You did an amazing job. I love the back. Can I ask what guard you used on the back and sides. Thanks for sharing your video.
Jessica Smith thanks so much girl! I used a #2 on the back and sides. Happy cutting!

I’m a retired hair stylist and you rocked it!! Good job!!
Thank you so much Laurie!😊😁🙏
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore and how is the weather over there
You did a great job! I love it! You are also so funny 😆
Oh wow! Thanks so much!
Oh my word! I love it! I've been trying to decide whether to cut a pixie again after letting it grow out for a year and a half. I'm convinced the pixie will be coming back soon!
Thank you so much! I never know what's "in style" (I'm very uncool.🤣) I just know what I like.
Absolutely love it!! You did an amazing job and made it look so easy, sure it isn't that easy. But when I get home after my nightshift I am going to watch this again as I give myself the same haircut. We are in lockdown till mid July so no hair dresser for me. At this point I am so ready to shave my whole head but this is a way better alternative. Thank you so much for this amazing video. Can't wait to get cutting!!!! xxxxx Given I am a nurse and not a stylist this will be so satisfying as long as it turns out. But hell it's only hair.
Thank you so much Amanda!😊🙏 I am a cosmetologist (semiretired) and I originally made this video because my friends asked how I was able to cut my own hair. I have messed it up really badly before but like you said, it’s only hair. It grows! Best of luck to you!!!
I cut mine own too !! Went from very long hair to a short pixie !
The best thing ever for me
Awesome! 🙌🏻
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore and how is the weather over there
Great job loved the video made me smile the whole way through
Glad you enjoyed it!😊

Well done, you did a great job. I cut hair for the first time yesterday - this pandemic has prompted me to watch lots of these tutorials. My mom was a hair dresser in her past life and she got me to cut the back of her hair under her direction and tomorrow I am cutting a friends hair. Hope I do as good a job as you have done.
Thank you so much! I am so glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. Let me know how the haircut goes👍🏻
So cute!! You made that look so easy.
Thank you so much!
You are absolutely amazing! Your hair looks great! I'm really impressed that you did that yourself.
Well thank you so much! Thank you for taking the time to comment!
Beautiful 😍! I love your attitude. I’m the same, I like to do things myself. I figure it out as I go, not overthinking it ❤️.
Thank you so much! And I believe that’s called self efficacy. It’s a new term for me but I’m pretty sure it’s the personality trait that causes that self reliance.
Indeed! You took me back to developmental educational psychology. Lol I also agree with something you mentioned, about learning how to do something the correct way, and then adapting your own method of doing it.
You are as cute as a bugs ear! And so funny!! LOVED THIS!!
Exactly what I'm wanting to do. I have ordered clippers.
Oh boy! That’s so exciting! Good luck and let me know how it turns out 👍🏻
I've gone the opposite way, now have hair like yours was after having a pixie for 15 years! Good job! ❤️
Came out gorgeous! Love it!
Thank you Jeanne!😊
absolutely in love with your personality. The haircut suits you so well!
Thank you so much!
What a good job you did, and it looks really cute on you!
Thanks so much 😊
You are so brave. Great job.
Thank you so much Carol!😊😁🙏
Wow! Super brave! Great job cutting your own hair. However I wouldn’t call that a pixie, more of a bob. I was a hairdresser for 35 years and it’s not that easy to cut your own hair. Kudos
Thank you so much! I agree about it not being easy and sometimes I do better than others.🤣
It's what is referred to as a pixie today - It's not the old pixie from years ago where it was short all over and fringy around the face - I wear a bob and it has a bit of length and angles back to front - I guess and time goes by the names of different styles change
You are so brave. Thank you so much for sharing. Looking great !!!
Denise Hou thanks so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
"I just did it." You are so brave! I really enjoyed the video and you look great!
Wow! Thanks so much!😊
You are so my kind of hairdresser lol.... I cut my hair all tge time and get the most compliments when I cut my own.
That's awesome! Thank you so much 😊
This is pretty amazing and gutsy!
Thanks so much Mandy!😊
You're amazing!!! 🤩 Apart from your talent as a hairdresser you have the loveliest voice and are so funny! Plus those facial expressions had me in stitches 🤣 Ever thought of doing Voice-over work at all? I could listen to you talking all day 😌❤
Oh wow! 😊 Thank you so much! I actually have done voice over work for dog training videos (I know, random) but I never thought of my voice as being lovely. That's so sweet!😁🙏
I love women with their hair cut above the ears, and real short in back!
The31262 thanks so much!
Agree
Short hair looks great on some people and she is one of them.
Wow! You have great hair and a perfect pretty face for a pixie!
Can’t believe you cut that yourself! Awesome to watch!
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave an encouraging comment!😊
BEAUTIFUL Golden!!
Thank you so much!😊
Lovely! Well done, and a cute cut too💇🏼♀️👍❤️
Richard Stadler thanks so much!
You did a great job cutting your own hair That’s just the style I want my hair cut in to.
Thanks so much! I hope this video helps you get the cut you want!
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore and how is the weather over there
I wear exactly the same haircut as you except I have shorter bangs I'm letting them grow. However I have been unhappy with the way my hairdresser has been cutting it someone else did it better and they moved away so I followed your advice and my hair turned out beautiful ! I want to thank you!
Oh awesome, Melba! Thant is so good to hear! Thank you so much for letting me know❤️
Cutting my own hair years u remind me of myself its slower in reality life but what I hate is all the hair on me I never get used to it
It does become terribly itchy! And yes, I sped the video up and edited it down to make it more watchable.😊
100% better than the sorry excuse of a pixie i got in a pro salon. Well done!
Thanks so much Jo! I'm a pro too, but I don't know any other stylist that cut their own hair. Surely I'm not the only one😬
It’s adorable! 🥰 love it
Thanks so much Susan!
Awesome job. That’s exactly how I want my hair cut 💇🏻♀️. Thank you 🥰😷✂️
Thanks so much Mercedes! Give it up for pandemic home haircuts 😄🤞🏻🤩
And, I’ m all grey now 🧑🏻🦳💖✂️
Dang girl, that was amazing! 👏
Wow! Thanks so much! I so appreciate your encouragement!

this cut looks super, you are a pretty lady. You could wear your hair any way you want to.
That's a good job!! It's really cute!!
Thanks so much!😊
You are amazing cutting your own hair!!
Natural talent. Congrats! 😊👍
Thank you so much 🤗
I love this look on you! :) it’s so adorable! Great job for doing it yourself and making it look flawless! You have to be a hairdresser lol 😊💕
Thank you so much! And yes, I’ve been a professional cosmetologist for over 20 years😊
Very impressive, you did a great job! I’ve been a hairdresser for 34 years and I doubt I could do that myself.
Wow! Thanks so much Lynn!😊 I've been a hairdresser for 20 years but cutting my own hair is very VERY different! I feel like such a newb sometimes😳😁
I’m impressed! Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
The excellent hair cut you did on yourself looks really good on you. Good choice.
Thanks so much Connie!😊
I just can believe how you cut your own hair, incredible.
Thanks so much Reinaldo!😊😁🙏
Wow, I am impressed. You did such a great job, just fantastic!
Thank you so much!😊😁🙏
This looks wounderfull.
Thanks so much!😊
Once I got very sick of my overgrown Bob, and grabbed a scissors and fists of hair, chopped and chopped. I’ve never gotten so many compliments on my hair! But wouldn’t recommend it , I think I was very lucky
Thanks so much for your comment! 😁🙏 I totally agree with you. I originally made this video not as a tutorial but just to show people how I cut my own hair because they always asked “how in the world do you do that?!” I never suggest cutting your own hair. I think of these as informative videos. For people dead set on cutting their own hair regardless of what I suggest. People like me🤣
Love the sides and top but that back is wa to short and believe me I love short hair.
Way too short for what, who.. You? Good job it's not your hair then........
I understand
Lovely
I love your hair you did a great cut ✂️ I wish I was that confident ❤
