UPDATE: Thank you everyone!! You helped me get to my goal and I'm super grateful!! Please subscribe so that I can continue to create and get to 1000! Thank you so much for all the wonderful comments! 🥰🫶❤️
Just my own opinion, I liked it better with your natural color & curl. I'd love to have that hair! I understand about the length & thickness & if it was me, I would have just shortened & added layers. Thanks for vid & showing that beautiful mane! That is exactly what I want for my hair!♥️
And I thought I had thick curly hair! My hair is not as curly as it used to be and it is fine, but I still have loads of it and I’ve been contemplating doing this. It can be so heavy and putting it up in a bun every day gives me a headache. But it’s just too wild otherwise since I don’t blowdry my hair. I wish I had been able to see it before you dried it and before you added all the extra fixing up so I could see what it would really look like on a regular basis. I’m trying to find someone with long hair let it go natural. I’ll check and see if I can find any pages on your site where I can see what it looks like without the blow drying. I have to tell you though you have some of the most beautiful hair I’ve seen in a long time. Mine is sort of a silvery gray throughout. It’s not really salt and pepper it reads as silver but there are a lot of different colors in it when I look at it hair by hair. I like it, but yours is stunning. I wish I had more white in it.
@@janetdw Oh wow, thank you so much! I have one video where I show my hair air dried. I'm learning as I go and trying to add moisture and less frizz! I appreciate your kind words and support. Best of luck with your hair! 🥰
I love the color of your hair. I'm 62 & almost totally grey but more of a silver near my face. My grandmother for years died her hair jet black, which i think the darker the color near your face when you get older, makes you look older. She finally let her true grey shine & actually looked younger! My original color is mahogany, brown with red highlights. It's still a little of that at the back underneath. I havn't cut my hair in 40 years.
I agree with you, it’s amazing how embracing your natural color can be so flattering! Wow, 40 years, that’s amazing. Thanks so much for your kind comment and support! 🥰🫶❤️
@@MAKUstudio 40secs in & I paused video as I comment here Never been to this channel before but I dont think I can watch the rest of this video while you cut off your BEAUTIFULL SILVER LOCK 😅😅 WHY?? WHOT?? LOL
My hair is about your length and gray, but I love the color of your hair, it is so pretty. I used cut my own hair, just the ponytail thing and saw it with craft shears. But now I have my husband trim my hair for me and he also will do French, Dutch and fishtail braids for me as well. Your hair would great in different braids. It is sad that so many women are afraid to go gray and if they do they get a frumpy short guy’s haircut.
Hi Carolyn, thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! I love that your husband cuts and does braids for you! I have done braids in my hair before, and enjoy that especially in hot/humid weather. 🥰🫶💜
I love having my husband comb out and braid my hair. I don’t like having it on my neck in the hot, humid weather as well as when I am working in the garden, plus I like it braided before bed so it doesn’t tangle. When I wear it down I get comments that I am too old for long hair, chop it off. But braided, it is always compliments.
@@Carolyn-rz8dl My hair is usually up in a bun when it's hot. The psychology of hair is quite fascinating! Wear your hair how you like it!! Ignore the haters for sure. Life is short, enjoy your long hair! ❤🤗
@Carolyn-rz8dl 31 minutes ago I will definitely ignore rude comments. The only people I have to please is my husband and myself. He does such a great job spoiling me taking care of my hair, I certainly would not anyone else near my hair, especially with shears. I have a couple friends who wear their hair long and he has trimmed their hair for them, I am ok with that because I understand how important it is to have someone who you trust cut your hair. They are friends and he does it with my there. It is not strange women showing up at our house.
I had an anxiety attack, went into cardiac arrest, and might have had a stroke watching you cut your beautiful hair! 😂 1st, you are VERY brave, and I 💯 commend you, and 2nd, it looks GREAT!! Very beautiful! ❤
Wow! You should chose your words more carefully. For your own safety. Do u know words carry so much energy. Don't say you had a heart attack. That's awful thing to say.
You are bad ass hair courageous! My hair a little bit longer than yours and been thinking of doing this...and locks for love take 10 inch donations, other organizations accept 8 inches... Soooo was going to go for it and donate. Thank you for sharing this! Building up courage!
Locks of Love CHARGE cancer patients for that hair btw!! 🤬 they charged my niece. She told them to keep it. 😊 she's still cancer free and her beautiful hair is still long and glorious!! 12 years. ❤
If your hair is grey they won't accept it. They say it doesn't take color very well. Seniors get cancer too, so I can't understand that. Perhaps as gray hair becomes more fashionable they will. That would be good all the way around,
First of all, I loved your original color! I didn’t turn grey all over, instead I turned white only around my face which was disappointing to me. The rest of my hair remained a mousy brown color so I would color it with neutral brown for years. When I turned 55 I bought a 20 year old Mustang convertible and had my hair colored blond at a salon. I’ve worn it blond for 10 years now and love it, but as soon as we know I can be fully grey (or white lol) I’m going to wear it that way finally. That being said, you are FABULOUS in purple! Bravo! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻
Hi Toni! I love your story, thanks so much for sharing it with me! I have had gray since I was 16. Let it totally go gray in 2019, it was a process both physically and psychologically. I appreciate your kind and thanks so much for watching! All the best to you in your gray hair transition! 🥰🫶💜
My hair at 65 is still a darker brown, but it hides a secret. When my hair is down, it is pretty brown all over, but if I pull it up into a pony tail, it is a pretty white on both sides. I went to my dad's to eat one day and had my hair pulled back into a pony tail. He looked at me and asked if I did that to my hair on purpose. 😅 I had to tell him that no, it did that naturally. I don't think he believed me. So glad to hear someone else has white on both sides! 😅
First off you are a very beautiful lady and you did a fantastic job. I did here for 42 years and my grandpa was a barber for 62 and I have all of his years and he kept hers his in a leather pouch and I have his first clippers, the very first walls and oars that were made, and I walk past the little treasure box I keep them in and I just get chills that stand up on my arm in the back of my neck and I know the sentiment that you have for your dad‘s leather belt pouch that he created that was absolutely gorgeousbut I just wanted to tell you that and you keep hanging onto those things and you did a beautiful job with your hair and please keep us posted on what you’re gonna do next thank you for sharing this with us. It was awesome.❤
Hi Jill, I got chills reading your beautiful comment. It means a lot that you can relate to me having my dad’s scissors and belt holder. I have other hair items from him as well that I cherish. I even use some of his old curlers for texture in my pottery work. Thank you so much for sharing your story as well and for your kindness and support!! Big hugs 🥰🫶❤️🤗💜
Omgosh your natural hair is so ethereal and beautiful. Can't wait to see how it turns out,! I've been doing the wolf cut for a few yrs now. My fine hair approves.
@MAKUstudio You're welcome, glad to find your channel! I also saw your other videos and how you work with Clay which in high school I absolutely loved my Ceramics class and it's something that I always wanted to do and now I'm 49 and I still want to do it LOL I loved watching you make the little bats and sugar skulls new sub obviously😉
So awesome! I recommend signing up for a local ceramics class just to play. Just do it! Did you see the make ‘n’ take video? I offer it on my website www.MAKUraku.com if you’d like to play with some clay, then send it back and I’ll raku fire it for you😊 Or, let me know if you’re ever in Arizona and we can connect in person at a workshop. 🫶
My hair is identical to yours, texture, volume and even longer. Haven't cut it in 6 years or more. The only cut I ever did was when wet, flip head down and make a pony tail on top of head then reach as far as my hand could and snip! More compliments on hair ever! The cut creates a natural V line, clean and healthy.
Agree with the other ladies you were so brave to do this, it does take courage when you have grown your hair for such a long time, I did this many many years ago but regretted it I did not have the knowledge or the time to do the research necessary. It looks wonderful and of course it will grow back should you regret your decision. Its so wrong to suggest when we reach a certain age we should not have long hair, I am 83 and I still have long hair, its not so thick, but hey up in the summer to be cool and always down in the winter to keep my ears warm!
I was scared for you! Your hair was beautiful before. But I get the pain of long hair. I cut mine and regretted it ever since. Now, I can't grow it long again. My once thick long beautiful hair has thinned over the years. I love the out come of your hair. It's gorgeous 😍
Love your purple hair! I was holding my breath for you while you made the cuts, then I was going nuts waiting to see the purple! Can't believe how pretty it turned out to be! Great job!!!
I wish my hair was that thick! I'm a dark brunette, but letting my gray grow. It's about 4 inches out now. Wish is was all grown out like yours. Wow, I love your results!!
@Livindaybyday I'm a Native woman, so my hair is everything to me. Its Sacred to my People. I had purple dye in it for bout 3yrs. My grays are at my temples, so it looked kinda cool. Got a lot of complaints. But I've been too lazy to dye it. So it's gray again with just alil purple left on the ends. I was thinking to cut it one more time and get the layers out and start over. No more layers. I want to do while powwow season is almost over.
Your hair is beautiful! I stopped coloring in 2019. It seemed like it took forever to grow all the gray out. I remember the stage you’re in. I ended up lightening the dark parts so it didn’t look as bad. Looking back, I don’t think I would do that again, I would just let it do its thing. Wishing you all the best in your gray hair journey. And, thank you so much for your kind words and for watching my video! 🥰🫶❤️
You're so brave! I did that to my long hair, but I did it 3 times in one day because I was scared to cut off so much. You can't put it back when you cut it too short! It's beautiful girl, looks great on you! Merry Christmas 🙋♀️❤️✝️🇺🇸✂️✂️✂️
This was a video worth watching!! I would love to see you take this cut, and do a Curly Girl Styling method with Curling gels, diffuser, and crunching the cast after it's fully dry. Your silver color is absolutely stunning, and I bet you could get some gorgeous loose curls going on!
I love it! You are rock'n the new do! It gives you a lift, making you look younger and more vibrant! A do it yourself face lift. And the color is fabulous!. I am so glad you shared this video with us! You could even go shorter if you want... you will still look great!
Awww, thank you so much Rhonda!! You are so sweet! I appreciate your kindness and support! The cheapest face lift ever lol! I'm loving the color...my fave! xoxo 🥰💜💟💓❣
Mak, you really are such a brave girl...and a lovely one as well! It looks great, and the purple is so FUN! I have both purple & "mauve" in the closet right now...but I haven't colored mine in ages...you may have just inspired me! 😊 I've been cutting & coloring my own for decades...but mine hasn't been long since I was much, much younger. Yours is so thick & suits you so well. I'm just too old & lazy to deal with long hair anymore...and sadly, mine is really starting to thin on top. 😲 Anyhoo, great job & thanks for sharing! I also checked out Brad Mondo's channel...what a hoot! I guess I've been livin' under a rock somewhere...I never heard of him before now! Please take care, stay safe & be blessed! 🤗
Hi Terry! Thank you so much for watching! Awww, I'm so happy that I could inspire you!! That's awesome that you have been doing your own hair. Would love to see your purple or mauve hair when you do it!! Thank you again, big hugs to you! xo🥰💓💟
Such gorgeous hair and you were so brave. I'm jealous of your curls.. I am at the same point with my hair, tired of the length and lack of control, but with straight and not so forgiving hair. You look fantastic with your new colour and style. ❤😊🎉
Hi Abbi! Awwww thank you, you are so sweet! Those were the days!! My next show is at the Casino del Sol in Tucson Feb 1-8. I’m subscribed to your channel, you go girl, awesome job!! Thank you so much for your support! 🥰🫶❤️
Omg. That looks so awesome on you. Great job. I'm going to go do a @BradMondo on my extremely too long hair right now myself. You looks so beautiful. Loving it.
Its looks good! Its just hair...it will grow back. When you always had hair its honest not a big deal to cut it as it is for a person who struggled with hair growth or limited lengths. Love it! ❤
You did a wonderful job... I could not get over how long and thick your hair was... Yes, it is harder when it has a lot of length... the maintenance is insane
You have incredible hair. Mine is stick straight and very thin. Hair like yours is hard to mess up, you have so much of it. Honestly the cut looks good but I think a professional could really make it perfect. You have enough hair for lots of long layering that would be so pretty. Still, you did a great job.
I've been cutting my hair like this since the pandemic. It gets a bit hard with my bad shoulder, but I like to save money and it usually looks good. My hair is wavy, not as curly as yours. Waves and curls hide a multitude of sins. You look really nice with this cut! Thanks for motivating me, I am a month over due and looking scraggly these days lol!
I had the same length as you when I did this cut, talk about tedious! I have a lot of bleached blonde and brown highlights, it’s so hard brushing it into a high pony, but was worth it, your hair looks beautiful,mine turned out good too.I might try parting mine three times and cutting next time !
It’s so nice that you can relate, Joanne! Thank you for your kindness and support. I’m glad your hair turned out beautiful too! Yes, I might try the 3 ponytails cut too. Best of luck to you! 🥰🫶❤️
Did Brad see / comment on this? Would LOVE to see his reaction. I hope he'd be open to including videos of a variety of ages! She followed everything he sd to do & not to do. You go girl u rock beautiful before & gorgeous after. Wow! Love we aren't all chopping our locks off just we are over 40.
Oh my goodness, Sharon, you are so sweet! Thank you so much for your kindness and support! I agree, just because we’re over 40, doesn’t mean we have to go short. I don’t think @BradMondo saw it or at least he hasn’t commented. I think he’s adorable! Thank you again! 🥰🫶❤️
Your hair is just fabulous! I think silver hair looks beautiful with a little eye makeup and red lipstick. I’m about 1/4 grey and going to try to ditch permanent dyes and use color depositing conditioner to grow it out.
Thank you so much Mel! I wish you the best of luck on your gray hair journey! Luckily, there is a lot of online support these days. You’ve got this! Thanks for your kindness! 🥰🫶❤️
You need some good moisture masks. You should use it at least once a week and you need some good moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. They do sell some for gray hair and or purple shampoo if you're dying it purple.
Omg...your gorgeous hsir...noooooooo...u used to have hair like yours but now I'm 58...it's thin ed sooo no much..omg hair evertywhere...bless your beautiful hsir😊
Ohh me too, anxiety level sky high, I surely loved the long hair and didn’t want to see you cut it. I have long hair also, but afraid to cut it. I never had it long as a girl, and I jst don’t want to cut it. My stylist says well don’t. she says just because you are older does not mean you have to cut it short lie most ladies do. She also said that i have a lot of hair not thick but a lot and it still looks good so I’m waiting. I’m still watching your video. I’m sure it will beautiful no matter what you do. Hugs
Thanks for your kind words and support! You don’t ever have to cut it if you don’t want to. I didn’t take too much off and my hair is still long. Hugs to you too! 🥰🫶❤️
I love your hair! It looks amazing, and the pink and purple really suits you. I'm so glad it turned out this well, and almost had a heart attack when you told us the plan. Your natural grey looks beautiful as well. Mine is a yucky, inbetween colour - grey at the very front, and mid brown with yellowy-grey at the back. I call the front my witch streak.
Hi Samantha! Thanks so much for your kind words and for watching! I’m a little witchy myself lol! Maybe try a purple shampoo for the yellowy grey. It might help get rid of the yellow and brighten it up. Thank you again, I appreciate you! 🥰🫶💜
You sounded worried, I thought, "Go to a hairdresser," but you persevered, and it turned out well. Very stunning with your colour and make-up. It still looks long, I hope there are no headaches now.
Too funny, yes, I was a little worried lol. It still has quite a bit of length. I really like how it turned out and hopefully no more headaches! Thank you so much for watching and for your kind comment! 🥰💓💜
Im not Brad, but i am a hair professional and it was scary to but waych when you took the pony tails put and cut free hand. Also, I would never use a tbining shere on long curly hair. Curly hair is however forgiving and the end result looked nice. I especially liked the color. Many blessings to you with Aloha. 🙏
Hi Gisela! Thank you so much for watching! Yes, luckily my hair hides many imperfections and grows pretty fast. I like how the purple came out too. Thank you again and many blessings to you as well! 🥰💓💜
Hair looks amazing! Honestly the scissors and belt hit me hard! I also lost my father who was very cool!! I inherited his guitar I’m praying for the courage to be able to take it out of the case and play it.
Oh Janice, I’m so sorry for the loss of your father. It’s so hard. Sending big hugs and prayers for you to be able to play your dad’s guitar one day soon. He will be smiling from above. Thank you for your kind words and support! 🥰🫶❤️

Adding more makeup didn't hurt either! She looked nice!
Thank you again!
Agree, right after she trimmed the bangs it just opened up her face, very flattering.

So awesome! I’ll have to try that way out some time! Thanks for watching and for your support! 🥰🫶❤️
Agree with the other ladies you were so brave to do this, it does take courage when you have grown your hair for such a long time, I did this many many years ago but regretted it I did not have the knowledge or the time to do the research necessary. It looks wonderful and of course it will grow back should you regret your decision. Its so wrong to suggest when we reach a certain age we should not have long hair, I am 83 and I still have long hair, its not so thick, but hey up in the summer to be cool and always down in the winter to keep my ears warm!
I love it!! More power to you! I would like to keep my hair long as I get older. Thank you for your kindness words and encouragement! 🥰🫶❤️
I was scared for you!
Your hair was beautiful before. But I get the pain of long hair. I cut mine and regretted it ever since. Now, I can't grow it long again. My once thick long beautiful hair has thinned over the years.
I love the out come of your hair. It's gorgeous 😍
Oh no, I'm sorry that you can't grow your hair long again, Kelly. Thank you for your kind words and for watching my video! 🥰💓💜
Love your purple hair! I was holding my breath for you while you made the cuts, then I was going nuts waiting to see the purple! Can't believe how pretty it turned out to be! Great job!!!
You’re so sweet, Rhonda! Thank you so much for your kindness and support! 🥰🫶❤️
OMG!!!It makes you look at least 20 years younger!! It looks 100 % better!!
You are so sweet! Thank you for your kindness, I appreciate you!! 🥰🫶💜
I wish my hair was that thick! I'm a dark brunette, but letting my gray grow. It's about 4 inches out now. Wish is was all grown out like yours. Wow, I love your results!!
@Livindaybyday I'm a Native woman, so my hair is everything to me.
Its Sacred to my People.
I had purple dye in it for bout 3yrs. My grays are at my temples, so it looked kinda cool. Got a lot of complaints. But I've been too lazy to dye it. So it's gray again with just alil purple left on the ends. I was thinking to cut it one more time and get the layers out and start over. No more layers. I want to do while powwow season is almost over.
Your hair is beautiful! I stopped coloring in 2019. It seemed like it took forever to grow all the gray out. I remember the stage you’re in. I ended up lightening the dark parts so it didn’t look as bad. Looking back, I don’t think I would do that again, I would just let it do its thing. Wishing you all the best in your gray hair journey. And, thank you so much for your kind words and for watching my video! 🥰🫶❤️

You're so brave! I did that to my long hair, but I did it 3 times in one day because I was scared to cut off so much. You can't put it back when you cut it too short! It's beautiful girl, looks great on you! Merry Christmas 🙋♀️❤️✝️🇺🇸✂️✂️✂️
But, you did it!! You’re brave too, don’t sell yourself short! Thank you Gina, I truly appreciate your kindness and support! 🥰🫶❤️
This was a video worth watching!!
I would love to see you take this cut, and do a Curly Girl Styling method with Curling gels, diffuser, and crunching the cast after it's fully dry.
Your silver color is absolutely stunning, and I bet you could get some gorgeous loose curls going on!
Great suggestion! Thanks so much for watching and for your support! 🥰🫶❤️
Absolutely stunning you are gorgeous Love the cut and color amazing
Awww, thank you so much Wendy! You are so sweet! I appreciate your kindness and positivity! 🥰🫶💜🤗❤️

@@robinholbrook6576 I'm sorry, I'm new. I hope to get better in my video taking abilities as time goes on. I appreciate your patience, thank you.
I love it! You are rock'n the new do! It gives you a lift, making you look younger and more vibrant! A do it yourself face lift. And the color is fabulous!. I am so glad you shared this video with us! You could even go shorter if you want... you will still look great!
Awww, thank you so much Rhonda!! You are so sweet! I appreciate your kindness and support! The cheapest face lift ever lol! I'm loving the color...my fave! xoxo 🥰💜💟💓❣
Wow... You are my hair twin! You did a great job, and look amazing!!! Well done doll!! 💜
Awww thank you Rhonda! You’re so sweet! It’s nice to know I have a hair twin! 🥰🫶❤️
Mak, you really are such a brave girl...and a lovely one as well! It looks great, and the purple is so FUN! I have both purple & "mauve" in the closet right now...but I haven't colored mine in ages...you may have just inspired me! 😊 I've been cutting & coloring my own for decades...but mine hasn't been long since I was much, much younger. Yours is so thick & suits you so well. I'm just too old & lazy to deal with long hair anymore...and sadly, mine is really starting to thin on top. 😲 Anyhoo, great job & thanks for sharing! I also checked out Brad Mondo's channel...what a hoot! I guess I've been livin' under a rock somewhere...I never heard of him before now! Please take care, stay safe & be blessed! 🤗
Hi Terry! Thank you so much for watching! Awww, I'm so happy that I could inspire you!! That's awesome that you have been doing your own hair. Would love to see your purple or mauve hair when you do it!! Thank you again, big hugs to you! xo🥰💓💟
Holy Crap!!! This was by far the best transformation! Love the cut, love the color, love the style! You are my inspiration 💓
Oh my goodness, you are so sweet, Kim! Thank you so much! Your kindness and support means so much to me! 🥰🫶❤️

Yes it is!! Thank you for understanding! I appreciate your support!! 🥰🫶💜

Thank you so much Ossie! I appreciate your kindness and I appreciate you! 🥰🫶💜
I started off thinking I'd give a lot to have such long curly hair like you have but it'll grow back. Turned out beautiful
Thank you! I appreciate your kindness and support! 🥰🫶❤️

Awww, thank you so much Carmen! I was a little nervous, but it grows pretty fast lol! I appreciate you watching!! xoxo
Such gorgeous hair and you were so brave. I'm jealous of your curls.. I am at the same point with my hair, tired of the length and lack of control, but with straight and not so forgiving hair. You look fantastic with your new colour and style. ❤😊🎉
Thanks so much! I'm glad you like it! I bet your hair is gorgeous too. Thank you for your kindness and support! 🥰🫶❤️
Aaah! Mak you haven’t aged a bit since the bead show days! Great job! You look gorgeous! Subscribing now! 💕

Very cute! Beautiful hair and now you look so much younger. You are a stunning lady!!
Awww thank you, you’re so sweet! I appreciate your kindness and support! 🥰🫶❤️
Omg. That looks so awesome on you. Great job. I'm going to go do a @BradMondo on my extremely too long hair right now myself. You looks so beautiful. Loving it.
Thank you Vicki! Good luck to you with the cut, you’ve got this!! 🥰🫶❤️
beautiful hair. love the natural colors.
Thank you for your kind comment! I appreciate your support! 🥰🫶❤️
Its looks good! Its just hair...it will grow back. When you always had hair its honest not a big deal to cut it as it is for a person who struggled with hair growth or limited lengths. Love it! ❤
Thanks for understanding! I really appreciate your kind words. 💜
What wonderous hair! Love the color!!!❤
Thank you so much ch, very kind! 🥰🫶❤️
You did a wonderful job...
I could not get over how long and thick your hair was...
Yes, it is harder when it has a lot of length... the maintenance is insane
It is insane, lol! Thank you so much for your kindness and support, Katarina! I appreciate you! 🥰🫶❤️
You have incredible hair. Mine is stick straight and very thin. Hair like yours is hard to mess up, you have so much of it. Honestly the cut looks good but I think a professional could really make it perfect. You have enough hair for lots of long layering that would be so pretty. Still, you did a great job.
Thanks so much, I appreciate your kind words! Yes, having lots of curly hair is very forgiving! 🥰🫶❤️
Wow, you put in the work with those ponytails!
Haha yes, I definitely struggled with the ponytails! Thank you for watching! 🥰🫶❤️
I've been cutting my hair like this since the pandemic. It gets a bit hard with my bad shoulder, but I like to save money and it usually looks good. My hair is wavy, not as curly as yours. Waves and curls hide a multitude of sins. You look really nice with this cut! Thanks for motivating me, I am a month over due and looking scraggly these days lol!
Thanks so much for watching and for your support! I’m glad I could motivate you! Happy New Year! 🥰🫶❤️
MAK❤ I love your new hair!!! So gorgeous!!! Beautiful soul with a beautiful style! The purple brings out your natural beauty!!!
Thank you so much my beautiful friend! I appreciate your kindness and thank you for watching, Lisa!! 🥰🫶❤️😘🤗
It was an honor to attend the last comb out of all those long locks
😂 too funny, thanks for watching! 🥰🫶❤️
Wow! I am soooooo impressed. You did a fantastic job. You look amazing! Hats off to you! 👏🏻🙂
Thank you so much, Minnie!! I appreciate you watching until the end results! Thank you for your kind words! 🥰💓💜
I had the same length as you when I did this cut, talk about tedious! I have a lot of bleached blonde and brown highlights, it’s so hard brushing it into a high pony, but was worth it, your hair looks beautiful,mine turned out good too.I might try parting mine three times and cutting next time !
It’s so nice that you can relate, Joanne! Thank you for your kindness and support. I’m glad your hair turned out beautiful too! Yes, I might try the 3 ponytails cut too. Best of luck to you! 🥰🫶❤️
I followed a cut by Christina Marie who did this Brad Mondo cut using the 3 pony method and it turned out fantastic!!! Look it up here on TH-cam!
ok I will Bobbie! Thanks so much!
You have such beautiful curly hair!!!!
Thank you so much! You are so kind!🥰🫶❤️
Wow! I love that! Being brave paid off. You look stunning. Love the colour ❤

I love the purple too! Thank you again, Kathy!! You are so kind, and that means so much to me! 🥰🫶❤️

I was worried then you surprised me! Great job, beautiful!❤
Thank you so much, Michele! You are so sweet! 🥰🫶❤️
Did Brad see / comment on this? Would LOVE to see his reaction. I hope he'd be open to including videos of a variety of ages! She followed everything he sd to do & not to do.
You go girl u rock beautiful before & gorgeous after. Wow! Love we aren't all chopping our locks off just we are over 40.
Oh my goodness, Sharon, you are so sweet! Thank you so much for your kindness and support! I agree, just because we’re over 40, doesn’t mean we have to go short. I don’t think @BradMondo saw it or at least he hasn’t commented. I think he’s adorable! Thank you again! 🥰🫶❤️
Absolutely Beautiful!! I love it.❤️
Thank you, you made my day! I appreciate your kindness! 🥰💓💟
You are so beautiful and brave! You did a fantastic job! And you have amazing hair!!!❤
Thank you so much, Kristine! I appreciate your kind words! 🥰🫶❤️
Girl, you and your hair are Beautiful!
Awww, thank you so much Lisa! You are very kind!! 🥰💓💜
Your hair is just fabulous! I think silver hair looks beautiful with a little eye makeup and red lipstick. I’m about 1/4 grey and going to try to ditch permanent dyes and use color depositing conditioner to grow it out.
Thank you so much Mel! I wish you the best of luck on your gray hair journey! Luckily, there is a lot of online support these days. You’ve got this! Thanks for your kindness! 🥰🫶❤️
You need some good moisture masks. You should use it at least once a week and you need some good moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. They do sell some for gray hair and or purple shampoo if you're dying it purple.
Thank you, do you recommend any good ones?
Looks a million bucks on you! If I got to choose my hair, I would ask for hair like yours! Gorgeous!!
Oh my goodness, thank you so much Carmen! You are so sweet! I appreciate your kindness! 🥰🫶❤️
Wowza you look amazing and much younger ❤
Thank you so much for the nice compliment! I appreciate you watching! 🥰🫶💜
Omg...your gorgeous hsir...noooooooo...u used to have hair like yours but now I'm 58...it's thin ed sooo no much..omg hair evertywhere...bless your beautiful hsir😊
Thank you for the blessings and for watching! I’ll be 57 in a couple of weeks! 🥰🫶❤️
Girl, you're such a rockstar!
Oh my goodness, you are too kind, Samuella! Thank you so much for the moral support and for watching!! Big hugs xoxo 🥰💓💟💜❣
Ohh me too, anxiety level sky high, I surely loved the long hair and didn’t want to see you cut it. I have long hair also, but afraid to cut it. I never had it long as a girl, and I jst don’t want to cut it. My stylist says well don’t. she says just because you are older does not mean you have to cut it short lie most ladies do. She also said that i have a lot of hair not thick but a lot and it still looks good so I’m waiting. I’m still watching your video. I’m sure it will beautiful no matter what you do. Hugs
Thanks for your kind words and support! You don’t ever have to cut it if you don’t want to. I didn’t take too much off and my hair is still long. Hugs to you too! 🥰🫶❤️
You and your hair are beautiful! Great hair😺
You are so sweet! Thank you so much, I appreciate your kindness! 🥰🫶💜
I love your hair! It looks amazing, and the pink and purple really suits you. I'm so glad it turned out this well, and almost had a heart attack when you told us the plan. Your natural grey looks beautiful as well. Mine is a yucky, inbetween colour - grey at the very front, and mid brown with yellowy-grey at the back. I call the front my witch streak.
Hi Samantha! Thanks so much for your kind words and for watching! I’m a little witchy myself lol! Maybe try a purple shampoo for the yellowy grey. It might help get rid of the yellow and brighten it up. Thank you again, I appreciate you! 🥰🫶💜
Your hair is beautiful! Great job!
Thank you so much Mary! I appreciate your support and kindness! 🥰💓💜
Looks great, you look so much younger! Your very pretty aswell! Well done!...
Thank you, Jill! I appreciate your kind words and support! 🥰🫶❤️
You sounded worried, I thought, "Go to a hairdresser," but you persevered, and it turned out well. Very stunning with your colour and make-up. It still looks long, I hope there are no headaches now.
Too funny, yes, I was a little worried lol. It still has quite a bit of length. I really like how it turned out and hopefully no more headaches! Thank you so much for watching and for your kind comment! 🥰💓💜
My hair is a little longer than that but I would never do that on my own. I love your hair either the grey or the purple looks fabulous
Thank you for your kind words! It’s fun to experiment sometimes. I appreciate your support! 🥰🫶❤️
You have beautiful long hair!!
Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate you, Karla! My 1st friend when I was little was named Carla! 🥰🫶💜
That is some beautiful hair! Even after you modified it.
Thank you! I appreciate your kind words and support! 🥰🫶❤️
Im not Brad, but i am a hair professional and it was scary to but waych when you took the pony tails put and cut free hand. Also, I would never use a tbining shere on long curly hair. Curly hair is however forgiving and the end result looked nice. I especially liked the color. Many blessings to you with Aloha. 🙏
Hi Gisela! Thank you so much for watching! Yes, luckily my hair hides many imperfections and grows pretty fast. I like how the purple came out too. Thank you again and many blessings to you as well! 🥰💓💜
Hair looks amazing! Honestly the scissors and belt hit me hard! I also lost my father who was very cool!! I inherited his guitar I’m praying for the courage to be able to take it out of the case and play it.
Oh Janice, I’m so sorry for the loss of your father. It’s so hard. Sending big hugs and prayers for you to be able to play your dad’s guitar one day soon. He will be smiling from above. Thank you for your kind words and support! 🥰🫶❤️
You are a rock star! Absolutely beautiful!
You're so sweet, thank you so much! 🥰🫶❤️

You have gorgeous hair and right not to cut them short ! It suits you so well ! But for me I am not sure I will be able to cut mine as beautifully as you…❤
Thank you so much, Marie! You can do it! 🥰🫶❤️
Your original hair was incredible. What we all hope for.
Thank you so much! 🥰🫶💜

At first, I thought: no, don't cut that hair! But as soon as you did it, I saw how amazing it looks! Wow! And I'm LOVING the purple! ❤
Thank you! I appreciate your support! 🥰🫶❤️
