  • Diamonds are a girl’s best friend! Your guest is going to receive incredible value with this magical technique to bring out volume in the crown area without any visible layering!
    Diamond sectioning along with the NEW Sam Villa InvisiBlend Shear will incorporate a decent amount of layering without losing the length - exactly what your guest is asking for - “I want layers but I don’t want to lose my length, can you achieve this for me?”
    Diamond sectioning will enable the hair to tilt back away from the face to create layers in the crown area without going through and layering the entire cut.

    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!!

No matter what I've paid, it's NEVER right...so I go back to cutting my own and get MORE compliments...Imagine that. Thanks Sam for all the tips.

      There are very few of us who know how to do this....I learned it a long long time ago when working for Toni & Guy and it has been invaluable to me, and has never failed me....you are right though....many stylists think that just because they are doing long layers it wont look layered, and that is not neccessarily so.......theres a few other procedeures combined with what Sam is doing above, that truly make the hair give the appearance of one length...all inter related....

      I remember one time I had shoulder length straight blunt-cut and all I wanted was a little Lyft or volume at the crown of my head because my hair just lay flat on the top of my head. So I went to one of these stylist that you have to pay $50 for a haircut and a lot of people referred me to this and went on and on about how great he was. I'm not kidding you when I say I left there with my hair looking like Joan Jet but without the bangs and he promised me there would be no layers in my hair I would still have the appearance of having even length hair my hair looked so layered and choppy I WAS PISSED OFF !!!

    • @caroljohanson2807
      @caroljohanson2807 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      We cut hair by degrees of elevation generally meaning 0° is where hair naturally falls it can be elevated at 30° 45° 90° or 180° meaning directly up from the scalp we do use geometrics angles and balance in haircutting however the finished product is a combination of enhancing the clients appearance and achievingThe clients desired results

      I've cut hair since i was13 years old family and friends.. dropped out of barber college so no shop still and here i am 46 and my passion for cutting styling hair will never leave me. my aunt and first cousin are hair stylist and they are very talented. this guy knows his stuff for sure! The instructor i had went to barber college with my aunt and they opened a shop together way back when it was called The Roffler Shop. Very busy salon i remember her working from 8am until 9-10 pm lost of night and my cousin and I would play in the back booth area I LOVED IT !!! I do cut my own hair most the time its free lol The one thing I remember the most was learning to use a razor . OMG scared to death and he called me out first calling me little bonnie which was my aunts name.. I took the razor and comb and was amazed I had a gift that came very natural to me.. The instructor said to the class one day You should cut the hair to fall in place as it should according to the cut! NO client wants to stand in the mirror for hours trying to style it the way they wanted it cut... If its cut right it will be very little styling time in order for it to look the cut

    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!

    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.

      Patty Asmus,
      Yikes! Only thing I could think to do is go in together with 4 other stylists, and rotate them around for a couple months which would give each one a chance to try them out in real world scenarios. Then you could make the INVESTMENT buying your own if you thought you couldn't live without them, and write it off as your tools of the trade.
      Also, each of the sharing stylists would have to pay a small amount to insure against loss, and WEAR THEM AROUND YOUR NECK WHEN NOT ACTUALLY IN USE!

  • @AugustHawk
    @AugustHawk หลายเดือนก่อน

    First, THANK YOU! You changed my life with this video I discovered years ago. This is my go to video for cutting my own hair, which I've had to do for the past 15 years when my stylist retired. My medium- thick straight hair grows in a unique pattern. First, I have a large prominent crown awkwardly placed on left top slightly backside of my head instead of on center top of my head. I also have several scars (from childhood surgeries) on top of my scalp that created small bald spots. The result is my hair is full at bottom and thinner and flat on top. This zig-zag diamond cut on the top has helped me create volume on top and even out my overall hair volume for a normal appearance, AND hide the small bald scar areas with that textured lift. I AM NOT A HAIRSTYLIST, but your phenomenal detailed instructional style made me capable of doing it. Though technical, the cut is actually pretty easy with practice and very forgiving with inaccuracies. Yes, I have taken this video to other stylists to see if they would do it. I get an eye roll and assurances they can and will, but they still cut their own way (no diamondand & no zig-zag), and thus the hair problems I needed resolved were not resolved, so I gave up and just cut it myself. I even bought the shears.😅 Please never take it down. Thank you again for sharing your skills and knowledge.

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.

    So, I’m super ambitious and risky when it come to cutting my own hair...because we’re poor and I’m generally not awful at it. Most of my hair is on the crown of my head and makes for some serious heavy floppy locks when layers grow out. I was at a loss as to how to improve my look when I happened upon this video- I have to say, I’m really rather pleased with how it turned out! Thanks for doing such a great job explaining!

      may i just throw this out without knowing all the intricacies of your profession. is standing for u a problem? when getting my own hair done often there is a stool which rolls easily for the cut used by the hairdresser. Could that be usedore often by u and be easier? is it possible for u to just have a few people to care for so u can set up an easy schedule like maybe a few hours every other day mon wed fri??? not being able to do what u enjoy seems unfair to u. and not having an experienced caring person is scary to most clients. personally if i knew u to be a hair artist i would be happy to accomodate your needs in return for something beautiful.

      You will need a 2nd mirror, try to find a big one, for me was really difficult because I used a 4 inch diameter one, try to place it in the best angle possible so you can see the back of your head comfortably. I won't recommend you to do it if your hair has many layer already, is better if you let you hair grow more so you can start all over to make it look nicer, also keep in mind that if your tips are really damage it won't look its best.

    Formerly a hairdresser back in the day. Really enjoyed this vid. This man is much more knowledgeable talented and has an expertise light-years from most hairdressers. That's why you won't find people being able to cut your hair like this could he makes it look very easy but trust me only a very competent capable hairdresser with a gift could replicate this haircut. If you notice it is nothing like a layered cut. This is how you would get Height in the crown with long hair. Also note he's talking about the size of the diamond. His model has very nice amount on the thicker side of medium textured hair. If you were working with someone with my type of hair which is fine and naturally curly you would use a much smaller diamond. Trust me ladies I can't find anybody that could cut hair like this gentleman and if so I'm sure I'd be paying well over $200 for a haircut.

    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!!

      Caressa Brady I use some Goody thinning shears that I bought at Walmart for under $10. Might have to cut in smaller sections than he does because they’re not as sharp. But it creates the same volume.

    Hello sir I live in North Alabama. I am a hairdresser from the Master's team. I haven't cut hair in a long time due to health issues. I can't find 1 descent hairdresser at all. Meanness cutting my hair any old way. I even showed a fellow a picture of long layers. By the time he was finished it was cut up to my ears. I always check the cut when I get home. Miss spot over 3 inches. I like no texturing just blunt cut not hard to do or ask for. I finally starting cutting my own hair. I'm so much happier and I can do a Farrah Fawcett ponytail haircut and check it at the end. I was very satisfied last time I cut my hair I was so happy I was floating. I enjoyed your technique video. I'm so ashamed of Alabama hairdressers and some medical Drs as well. God bless you and for the others hairdressers it's about the client needs not yours. No excuse for slacking off with clients.....they pay your bills...

    I cannot tell you how good this system appears. I can see exactly what he is saying! I have actually held my hair on top because the hairdresser want to take it all off. They have actually said "let your hair go" and my answer has always been "NO." If one more suggestion is warranted, I would say, ask the client if they prefer to leave the hair longer or shorter. When they say longer, DO EXACTLY THAT! If they say shorter, don't make them look like they have a mini head. Hairdressers just are not interested in what YOU want, they were taught one way and that is, in their opinion, good enough. I am 74 years young and had at least 100+ different stylist. Only TWO were worth returning to for a good cut.

    @marilumurphy8903 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    As a haircutting and colour professional for over 40 years and prof for 12 years at a local college, I tried my best to graduate great haircutting stylists. The problem is that most young stylists are more interested in hair colour and not haircutting, which is the FOUNDATION (LIKE A HOUSE) IN ALL HAIR DESIGN. A great haircutting stylist always takes their time and uses the many areas of the head as reference points for balance. I cringe at stylists that just pick up the hair and start cutting with no plan or a very loose one in place. I love the videos that show the public a good stylist. Perhaps a large portion of the haircutting community will listen to their guests who sit in their chair, wake up and realize how very important a great cut is and take the time for the ongoing education it takes to become fantastic!

  • @jenniferdeur9640

    I did this to add some crown volume after using another video to cut a layered look. First time cutting my own hair. Getting the zig zag in the back part of the diamond on my own head was the hardest part so I spent a lot of time redoing that but once it was finished it looked great! More volume, no obvious layers. I just did it with regular hair cutting shears.
