Thank you so much! All we ever see are people cutting straight hair or making the hair look straight. Now unless you really have straight hair maintaining that is labor intensive unless you are good with hair (I'm certainly not). More TH-cam videos with curly or wavy hair would be appreciated. It's a sad thing when only one type of girl from a very specific set of ancestries gets to be pretty or feel confident getting her hair cut since she is the only type anyone learns to work on and the only one we see in videos.
Wonderful, yes I totally plan to do a load of curly hair videos in fact I wanted to do them this year but due to social distancing et cetera et cetera and lockdowns it has been extremely difficult to do everything I wanted to do this year but I totally agree with you why should every Hair Model have the same hair
Very clear instructions, thanks so much! I just cut my own hair at home using your technique and I LOVE IT! I have tighter thicker curls than the model but the method still worked a treat. It's a universally flattering cut from wavy to curly heads, and not that complicated once you grasp what's being done. Thanks for making it easy and fun! :)
@@TheLifeOfHair totally forgot to update, I've already had this cut done for second time and it looks really nice. and my curly hair behave much better than when i had them cut straight
Im a totally new hairdresser student and happy to find someone who just explains what to do and not all kinds of useless jokes and comments. Clear and easy to follow.The british accent helps as well ;) Thank you, you have a new apprentice!
This, this is it, this is the one tutorial that finally gave me the curly cut I wanted. I did it myself and it took me about an hour but it was 100% worth it. Thank you!
I’m so glad I found this video, I just did this cut to my 19 year old daughter and it turn out amazing! We both have curly hair, I get it from both my parents and my daughter from me.
This tutorial is wonderful. Managed to do it at home alone (took 1.5 hr and my arms are tired from pulling my hair straight up above my head) but it's the best haircut I've had and it's all thanks to your wonderful technique and explanation. Thank you so much!!!
I just got this haircut today with a red brown base and fiery copper highlights. I have a round face and I didn't think it would look good but my hairdresser talked me into it. What the hell. It's just hair! I love it!!!! It's low maintenance, cute, edgy, and perfectly unfussy. This cut fits all face shapes.
Fantastic yes it might be from the 70s but I think it’s a classic this haircut you’ll be showing your kids when you’re the same age as your mum it is going nowhere ✌🏻
I'm a barber I've grown my mullet for 8 months now and I'm at the point where I wanna do a mullet/shag cut on a woman! You're videos have helped a lot some practice on a mannequin and I should be good to go!
Hi James love the curly shag, the shag is one of my fav' hair cuts. On another note did a root bleach today used your technique from a week or two ago. Can out even better than normal. So thanks a lot. Jacqui x
Dude i have to thank u i have abso no training in hair but i followed along to ur video and i think it turned out so nicely, i was really freaked out bc i did just the top layer at the back and left it there but ive just cut the rest of the layers and it looks SICK! Thank uuuu!!!!!
For the past 20 years I've been asking for a shag hair cut. 😳 people look at me like they don't understand 😒 🙄 😕 😪 😐 I may have to try this on myself. One thing about my hair is you really can't mess it up. I have curly thick wild hair 🤪 thanks for sharing this video.
Blast, I'm seeing this video after following another of your videos on the shag cut. I still got a good result though but it was tricky figuring out some parts. This is easier to follow. I'll follow this one next time!
❤❤ this haircut. I've always had stick straight hair then started perming until a few yrs ago after my mom passed away. I find now my hair is thinning really bad. She passed at 93 and had a head full of hair. Wish I could get a perm and this cut. Ty for sharing this.
You can just push the fringe over to the side but you do need a little bit more of finding on the fringe taking a bit more weight out of it and it does work really well on straight hair in fact I’ve got a video on the channel that is on straight hair
Exactly like my hair in high school back in the ‘70s. Unfortunately everyone else had long, straight and middle-parted hair. I was teased unmercifully.
Beautiful. I want this. In you last from the front you say "if your hair is longer you may have more hair to cut" what do you do it your hair is shorter and there is no hair to trim? (I have to diy since covid)
cant wait to try this one as well! this tech vs the Shag / Mullet Haircut Vidal Sassoon - Long Graduation - video. my client has curly hair and i would like the shape of the other video. I felt like i would just do the Shag / Mullet Haircut Vidal Sassoon - Long Graduation - but then i saw this. and am curios if would i vary anything since she has curly hair?
thank you Sura for your question the long graduation will take more hair from the corner at the front and make it seem longer in the back. were as the curl shag video that technique will keep more weight and length in the front so it is very much client dependant as to the look you are going for i hope that helps if not let me know 😀
Hello. Loved the video and the end result! When it comes down to it, would you find this tutorial hard to really follow for an amateur, someone with curly hair locked indoors currently?
Fantastic glad you really liked it how hard or easy it would be to follow well that is very difficult for me to say what I will say is there any comments of this video several people has mentioned that they have done this to themselves it’s a fairly simple technique in the sense that it just repeats itself over and over again and there isn’t that many sections to Comb up and cut so it depends how proficient you are At following instructions take your time I’m sure you’ll be fine everything is just directed into the very centre of your forehead apart from that there’s nothing more to it really
Love it! I had this hairstyle in the early 80s! I have naturally curly hair but have been straightening it and I'd love to go back to this easy care style and embrace my curls again. Problem is I can't find anyone locally who will do this. They all want to add a lot of texturizing which doesn't work well for my hair. Would it be rude to show this video to a hair designer?
Yes this is a cracking haircut for curly hair why not show it to them if they aren’t doing what you want then there’s no harm and to be honest if somebody is offended by you trying to convey what you want exactly they probably not the right stylist anyway if someone came to me with a video or a series of pictures I would just be pleased that I could get a good understanding of what they wanted. 😁👍🏻
@@alysiaburns5094 Yeah . You can text them ahead of time and say something like..."It took me a while, but I found this guy on TH-cam who cuts and teaches cutting hair in the exact shape I want. You may have your own approach, but just for reference, here's the video." And then send the link. I would love that. I think I may have lost clients not understanding the shape they were after. If a stylist gets upset over it, don't go to them. Honestly, WE REALLY want to make out clients happy. YOU are living advertisements of our work.
Wonderful cousin George video it doesn’t really matter for the current before or after because the length of the layers are determined by the fringe so the perimeter of the haircut can be adjusted before or after you finish cutting the layers
Georgeous. I have to DIY due to covid + immune deficiency. I plan to see a stylist at some point for a Pro Job. I mostly have done this but my length is jaw length, so it doesn't reach top for over direction. How do I get the layers right for sides? I think I need a second guide point? Being short the back is tough. I have a bit of a weight bump @ the ends. Suggestions? I have most of the shape but need to refresh/fix scragglers.
Hi thank you for your question hope you have sorted it out now sorry didn’t get back to you sooner it’s very difficult for me to imagine what you are trying to achieve without seeing it. Best James
@@TheLifeOfHair Thanks for replying! I'm sure you are busy! I'm trying for the same cut only not shoulder length. You over direct all sections to the center top guide you create. As my hair is chin length not all of the sections are long enough to reach that center guide. Do I use say a 1 or 2 o'clock section as a new guide to overdirrect the hair to to keep it at jaw length (actually I want it to grow so the bottom hits mid neck.) If you can't answer that is OK. I understand the difficulty. Not many people are showing cuts for shorter shags. (I think I've watched every TH-cam)
Thank you very much that is a nice compliment it did make me laugh out loud. That is exactly how my eyebrows grow out of my head naturally but you’re not the first person to comment on them obviously I must be very fortunate then LOL thank you for your comment all the best
OK I have a question . My teacher is telling me not to hold my fingers like I do when cutting. The only reason I’m bringing this up to you is because I noticed you hold your finger the exact same way I do. With one slightly tucked under the other I guess not exactly even is what she could call it. So I’m just curious is that wrong to do or not?
Hi Julie thank you for your question to be honest providing that you are aware of your natural characteristics let’s say crossing our fingers slightly and you do not allow them to affect the end result and there is absolutely nothing wrong with any mechanical technique it is just about personal confirmation to ensure that you do not allow these particular features of your natural style to impinge on the end result hope that makes sense and the best times
You can cut it at any angle to be honest the steeper the angle so the closer to 90° vertical will give you less layers, and the flatter you cut the layers e.g. the closer to 90° horizontal relative to the floor the more you layer it so it’s about determining what do you want to get from the shape dose that make sense? Best James
I like this, but longer. Below my collar bone. Almost to my bra strap. I can't go short like that yet! I'm 58 and have past bra strap length curly/wavy hair.
@@TheLifeOfHair I have been thinking of doing something different with my hair. I may show the girl that does my hair on occasion your video and see if she can do it. Most don't because I always say I want to keep it long. Lol. I just have too much hair and its hot in west Texas!!!
Does this change at all/much with a side part? I imagine for the front you would overdirect to the part, maybe? But I'm not sure how to continue that into the back...
Yes exactly that if you’re going to do this with a side parting you simply over direct to the part if you want to connect the back in in a similar fashion to the way that you cut the front and you would just over direct it to the centre and have a slight disconnection on the heavier side the alternative is to cut the back square with no over direction and all will be well
Good question thank you, it depends how you define a basic layer, I would say a basic layer is cut more square 90° where is this is a 45° angle short to long Shorts around the face getting longer towards the crown. in a technical sense this is actually a long graduation or a forward graduation depending on your standpoint yes you are elevating the hair yes you are effectively creating layers but whenever we are using a technique that is travelling from shot to long, whether it be from the nape to the crown ( grad Bob) or from the front hairline to the crown we are creating graduation. I hope that answers your question 👍🏻
This is not a shag haircut. That’s why you’re asking that question. The hairdresser must not know what a real shag is. A real shag has very short layers at the top that gradually get longer. Think Carol Brady on The Brady Bunch. Or David Cassidy. It’s like a lady mullet.
@@kconrad5893 He cut short to long in, literally, every section. This is a connected shag. A stylist can vary the elevation in the fringe and even disconnect the top layers from the bottom and "visually blend it" and it also would be as shag. On wavy hair, you'd see the shape more defined. A Mullet has the front disconnected from the back, completely and there's no "slight corner removed or angle flowing into to longer lengths." It's an extreme of short in front. Long in back. You really are not correct saying this isn't a shag. This is the Vidal Sassoon version and he invented it. That's where the rubber meets the road.
@@rain3743 My first reply to you was deleted but I’m writing again to say that this is not a 70s shag haircut and Vidal Sassoon did not invent the shag and was never known for the shag. Look it up honey. It was actually invented by a BARBER named Paul McGregor.
Yes it is an ideal haircut for curly hair, but I also think it works nicely and straight hair texture its offering a lot of texture and movement especially if you cut the 45% you elevate the hair square from the head shape you get a lot more moving out of it 👍🏻 hope that helps 👍🏻
I hated my mother for a week after she gave me this hairstyle when I was 12. I cut it myself a few weeks later into a regular shag with fringe. Aren't things bad enough? If we're going to bring something back from the past can we make it the music instead?
This would be a bit tricky to do on yourself in this particular style but there are several videos that I have seen about cutting your own hair in a similar style give them a little look up on TH-cam cutting your own hair into a shag hope it works out for you all the best James
Um...that’s not a shag LOL. That’s a layered bob. A true 70’s shag is like a lady mullet. Its like David Cassidy’s hair. Barry Manilow. It’s Carol Brady’s hair from The Brady Bunch. Nice try though. 🙄

@@rain3743 My first reply to you was deleted but I’m writing again to say that this is not a 70s shag haircut and Vidal Sassoon did not invent the shag and was never known for the shag. Look it up honey. It was actually invented by a BARBER named Paul McGregor.
Το me a shag is ideal for curly hair. I want this haircut for myself but I have really straight hair. Is it going to work?
Yes it is an ideal haircut for curly hair, but I also think it works nicely and straight hair texture its offering a lot of texture and movement especially if you cut the 45% you elevate the hair square from the head shape you get a lot more moving out of it 👍🏻 hope that helps 👍🏻
@@TheLifeOfHair thanks a lot. I really love your videos
Lovely
Thank you 🙏🏻
I hated my mother for a week after she gave me this hairstyle when I was 12.
I cut it myself a few weeks later into a regular shag with fringe.
Aren't things bad enough?
If we're going to bring something back from the past can we make it the music instead?
That was beautiful hair cut , just camera was keep moving forward and back fast , gave us a headache.

I’m wondering if I could do it for myself or do I need someone to cut it for me ?
I have no one right now to do that 😓
This would be a bit tricky to do on yourself in this particular style but there are several videos that I have seen about cutting your own hair in a similar style give them a little look up on TH-cam cutting your own hair into a shag hope it works out for you all the best James
I fucking love all your videos man! Thank you so much !! Please don’t stop !!
Thanks bro, much appreciated and I won’t I have so many plans going forward 😁👍🏻
Omgbi almost got b this cut I'm so glad I saw this cause honestly I don't like it at all.

Um...that’s not a shag LOL. That’s a layered bob. A true 70’s shag is like a lady mullet. Its like David Cassidy’s hair. Barry Manilow. It’s Carol Brady’s hair from The Brady Bunch. Nice try though. 🙄
yeah Carol Brady has the classic shag, your right
@@brucecampo6543 They have straight hair. EXPAND the curls. It's a shag.
@@rain3743 Not a shag hon. Google “Jane Fonda in the movie Klute” and you’ll see what a real 70s shag looks like.
