As a man who has full, thick and black middle length hair, you have to go to a hairstylist. Barbers are great at making faded or short haircuts. They always ruined my hair until I saw Stephen's videos and understood the concept. So I went to the best hairstylist in my town and he gave me the best cut I've ever got. Perfect layered hair like John B (Outer Banks) or Timothee Chalamet. If you consider going to a hairstylist, show them one of Stephen's videos and communicate what you're looking for. All the best, brothers.
@@suleymanamin5920 I believe you came across barbers that could not get the job done. Since there’s many barbers that can do what that hair stylists did to you.
So thankful my barbers appointment got canceled last week. I’m in this exact situation where I didn’t know if I should go to a salon or barber. I will definitely be looking around for a hair stylist now that my hair is longer. This video probably saved me months of progress
Yea but like how he said in the video is he a hybrid barber like himself ? It’s bad to disqualify someone without knowing if they can truly get the job done.
@@iJuanGutierrez 2 years later but I'd feel safer going to a hairstylist for a guarantee than a barber for a 50/50. Maybe ask the barber days before the actual hai cut if the know how to do it but I don't think they fucked up here
my trust of local barbers is so low that i decided to just push all my hair backwards and cut at the back... they butchered my 1 yr worth of hair. if you could make a self-cut video for medium-long hair men, that would be awesome.
I had a good stylist for years, who layered my hair. I often received compliments on my hair. After moving, I could not find a stylist who could layer. I gave up, and started wearing my hair short for the last 20 years. With the pandemic and lock-downs last year, I let my hair grow out. I went to my regular stylist and asked if he could layer my hair. He said he could, but he didn't do it. There isn't anyone I know, who I could ask for a referral (based on their own hair style). I spent so many hours searching reviews, etc. and found a salon that had stylists with positive reviews. I asked the person who answered the phone if they had a stylist who could layer hair. She replied that anyone could cut layers - that it was basic, cosmetology 101. I made an appointment with a stylist and on the day of my appointment, I asked again if she could give me a layered cut. She said she could, but she didn't. I am so frustrated, trying to find a good stylist. Salon Guy, do you take appointments?
I’m currently at 16 months of growth. Looking for layering. After reading horror stories of other’s experiences, it’s difficult finding a skilled stylist and understanding what I envision. What I’m thinking of doing is sit at the lobby of a potential place is to observe the stylist in action. Think of it as an audition. Hopefully, I can find the right person.
Today I asked for layers and the dude literally said “show me a short haircut.” And he was someone who didn’t know what the hell he was doing and I explained layers and then he just asked me again “show me a short haircut.” My medium hair became a buzz cut in 15 minutes and now I’m just devastated with my other buzz cut friends who always dreamed of having the length I had. Man there’s just no one out there anymore.
The barber that has been cutting my hair since I was a little kid freaked out a year ago when I told her I was wanting to grow out my hair and have a layered cut. She has always cut a crew cut hairstyle for me for many years. When the covid started and when the barber shop was forced to close my hair grew longer and I like it and started embracing longer hair. I waited for about a good 6 months after the barber shop opened back and I told her I wanted to grow out my hair and I could tell she was being hesitant but she did do some layering. The next appointment she told me that my hair was not going to look good or work how I was wanting to grow it out, so I ended up changing to a hairstylist. It costs more but I feel more confident than with my barber about my hair.
@tossmeck2 yeah its very depressing when that happens especially when hair only grows up to 6 inches or so per year. I'm stilling working on my layering in the front but I think I have a better person helping me with it than before. Hope it all works out good for you in the future for your hair.
Same, the barber I go here in Houston is in a mainly ghetto area and when I asked my barber if he could do layers, everyone just kept asking “yo dawg wtf? You a female or sum? We don’t that booty bandit shit here” I got called out bad and never went there again, crazy how asking for layers is seen as feminine lmao.
i’m getting a haircut next week and i’m so glad i’m seeing an actual hairstylist rather than a barber. last time i saw a barber, i specifically asked “could you cut my bangs so they’re just above my eyes?” (they were nearly down to my nose) and she made me look like dora
i messed up i went to my barber and asked for layers now that my hair is long. he wasn’t really sure what to do and i could tell in his body language and he went crazy with the thinning shears now my hair is super frizzy and knotted how do i undo the damage of thinning shears !!
I have curly fine hair (not balding I was born this way) I’ve noticed that my hair sticks in flat clumps when wet and makes it seem like I have streaks of baldness… *should I get layers or is there anything else I could do to combat this?* my hair is up to my nose in length all around and my hair style is curly top with shaved sides… thanks
As of writing this, my hair isn’t too long, not even past my eyeballs and my barber has always done a decent fade job for as long as I’ve seen him. I asked him if he knew how to layer since my hair is a little grown out now and he said that’s for stylists only. But Google says it’s something that all barbers should really know how to do. Maybe not all then? 🤷♂️
I have that haircut and layers, but how do I get that volume in my hair? Is it better to blow dry it after washing it or leave it to air dry? And what products should I use? A mousse? A sea salt spray or something else?
I've had this problem with my hair over the years. It is smooth and layerless. I tell hairdressers to cut my hair but structure it in layers, but I always end up unhappy and with a helmet on my head... my hair, even at 55 years old, it's fantastic, and I like to wear it like Kenau Reeves, but no one has ever cut it properly, anyway... I'll probably die without someone cutting my hair the way I would like...greetings from Portugal!
Barber and stylist in my area doesn’t have clue to cut men long hair too many bad experiences even so called high end stylist 😞 good hair stylist is hard to find these day…!
Before getting a haircut, my wife always go to the hairdresser and see how the hairdresser works and what the result is after the haircut. If she likes the result or photo of the hairdresser’s work, then only then do she sit in his chair :) Unfortunately, there is only one salon and several hairdressers in that salon fulfill her request in layers and she needs to fly to another country to get her hair cut there. (In Denmark they simply don’t know how to cut hair).
Question. So I always had short hair.. but decided to grow it out. It got long but it was all one size so I wanted layers. I’m just a regular dude who would go to a cheap Supercuts or great clips but when I went to get it layered at one of these chains the Asia’s girl cut my hair in maybe 5 minutes tops. It’s so rushed as I’m sure they are more worried about volume of customers versus a good cut. What do I look for when I want a good haircut that doesn’t cost $50 bucks. Honestly… $50 bucks to cut my hair is kind of crazy to me. What should I spend if I want decent layers and who do I call? I travel full time around in an Rv so I can’t get one stylist to always do it. But looking for a nice cut.
My bad luck due to in Kolkata india when ever i go to Habib or something like they start saying that my hair is bad ( like everyone i do have split ends) i must do spa to them then they bring a totally newcomer who then start ruining the length i gain I am really interested going to your store and have a nice long haircut
out of curiosity... what kind of haircut does the winter soldier have? i have it long but the backside is longer than the front and I have no idea how to ask my barber...
without product, my hair lays flat( it is straight and fine, medium length) would layering add texture to my cut and reduce weight, or would it make look uneven? i’m trying to transition to a messier style haircut.
Even with straight fine hair, you can always get a slight wave out of it, you just got to get a decent medium length cut e.g a middle part or christian bales haircut. Then you can use a blow dryer and seasalt spray and get that look Alot of the time you just got work your hair around with your hands.
Hi I have a question in terms of my hair. So I got this hair that every single haif stands but on the front-middle part will be fluffy and just points towards. Imagine an Afro but straight hair. But I was wondering how can I control it? I'm always been insecure about it since it' so weird compared to "Normal" hairstyle. Since I cant control them normal I just use so much gel just to control it.
I've had both problems. Told the stylist "no layers, want long and straight" and she said "you have to have layers, you can't do that" so I left. 🤣 But the trouble was (she'd cut it before) she and many other stylists I've seen use the excuse of "layers" to give a crappy randomly chopped cut. SalonGuy's videos demonstrate clearly how to do it right and more or less evenly through out the whole head. Not a mostly one length medium cut with a couple of random horizontal lines in it. Sadly I think the franchises just don't give the stylists enough cash percentage to give a damn and even many self run shops just aren't willing to take the time to do a cut the way it is meant to be done. Just lazy crappy excuse laden work. And these TH-cam videos show that there's no excuse. If you need to charge for the extra time fine but do the cut right damn it. 😤🤣
Why don’t you SHOW HOW TO DO THIS cut, instead of just TALKING? I am a retired hair stylist, had an excellent instructor. It is IMPOSSIBLE to find a stylist that knows HOW to layer cuts. Too many stylists are coming out of “stylist training “, that have NO CLUE how to give a good hair cut, much less a “ good layered cut “
Here's my story.... This is the first vlog where u haven't tried to sell 100 of ur products. Ur like a car salesman. Please someone get me my heart pills!!!!

These barbers only know how to cut fades and short hair etc. Medium long hair - even shorter than Johnny Depp - is already enough and they dont know what to do with it.

It's because if you grow your hair out, they make less money. No need to do a clipper cut every 2 weeks.

Layering does reduce weight, makes the hair more fluffy and gives it a flow, lightens it (weight).
