Hair cutting

We do not recommend that you cut your own hair — even qualified hairdressers do not do this. Therefore, for the first independent haircut, you will need double courage — your own and the one who will give you his head. Now I will tell you in detail how to make a simple haircut for your spouse, child or someone else from your family and friends. This is not a difficult task, and following step by step, you can easily handle it by creating a perfectly acceptable hairstyle with your own hands. Of course, when working with a sharp instrument, you must be very careful not to injure yourself and your client. And one more word of advice. An old professional rule says: a hairdresser stands on two legs and works with two hands. What does that mean? And here's the thing. At the moment when the hairdresser touches your hair with scissors, comb, or hands, he must stand firmly, distributing the weight equally on both legs. When he steps around the chair, he should not touch his client's head. And yet: in the process of work, he always acts with two hands — if scissors are in one hand, then the other guides them, helps with a comb, brush, or simply supports strands of hair or the client's head. The body of the hairdresser always remains straight during work, the master does not hang over the client, and if he needs to look at the result of his work, he slightly crouches down, lowering himself to the level of his head. When you get to the barbershop, check if your master is following these rules. If not, you have every reason to look for another hairdresser. So, let's get to work. Place the client with freshly washed, damp hair in front of the mirror on a stool (it will be more convenient for you) or on a chair (it will be more convenient for him). Make sure that nothing gets in his way and he can spend some time without changing his position, otherwise it will be difficult for you to achieve symmetry in your haircut. Cover your shoulders with a towel, tying it around your neck. Gently comb your hair down from the top of your head so that it lies as smoothly as possible on your head.

Let's start by cutting the hair around the perimeter — bangs, hair on the sides of the head and at the back of the neck. Then we will trim the strands of hair in accordance with the intended hairstyle. They can be combed forward or backward, wound on tongs and curlers, etc. After each next step, we will stop and check ourselves by combing our hair or choosing individual strands: whether we made a mistake, whether we left a long strand, whether we took off too much. If the hair is much longer than it should be, first cut off the excess length, but do not get carried away so that there is enough hair left on the client's head to create the desired hairstyle. It would be wise if you first make a few movements with scissors around the client's head, trying on how you will actually cut his hair. And most importantly, don't worry, otherwise your client will also start to worry, give you advice and make comments, or, God forbid, he will fidget, pull away and, at any moment, run away before, during or immediately after the haircut, without thanking you. Remember that when grooming children, you need to be especially careful, because they have a way of twitching at the most inopportune moment. Professionals tend to start haircuts on the left side of the head. Let's follow this rule too. Let's start with the bangs. Stand in front of the client and start by cutting off half of his bangs. At the same time, the hair should not be lifted from the forehead, otherwise it will be cut to different lengths and it will be difficult for you to maintain an even haircut line. Focus on the line of the eyes and eyebrows. Pull your hair slightly with your left hand, but remember that when it dries, it will rise and appear shorter. Stand firm. Use part of your left palm as a barrier between the scissors and the client's eyes, so as not to injure him inadvertently.

Be careful not to take your eyes off your hands and scissors for a second. Don't look in the mirror, look directly at the place you are cutting. When half of the bangs are cut, stand to the side of the client. The hair still lies smoothly on the head, you carefully cut it in a smooth curved line from the bangs to the earlobe. Go to the other side, cut off the other half of the bangs and repeat the symmetrical line from bangs to ear. Stand behind the client, straighten his head, smooth his hair and make sure that everything has been done correctly so far. Hairdressers know that a lot of people have slightly asymmetrical ears. Therefore, we recommend placing your index fingers horizontally at the same level near the client's earlobes, looking in the mirror, to make sure that the haircut is done smoothly. Now you stand behind the client and cut the back of his head. Tilt his head exactly forward. Use a comb to press your hair to your head and press it down with your finger. Carefully pass the scissors under a lock of hair and cut it off. The length of your hair should match the haircut you've done on the sides of your head. So, now the hair around the perimeter of the head is shorn. Comb them out, check your work. An even perimeter will determine the entire style of the future hairstyle. Now we turn to cutting strands of hair. The hair should still be wet. You conditionally divide the surface of the head into six sections. You will have to deal with each of these parts individually. The first section runs from the forehead in the middle of the crown to the back of the head. The individual strands on it run parallel to the forehead line, across the head. You pinch the strands of hair between your index and middle fingers. The first two or three strands forming the bangs are made slightly longer than the next ones, all the others are of equal length. Strands should not be too thin or too thick — their exact thickness is given only by practice, it is necessary that the scissors cut them without crumpling, without effort. Remember that natural hair growth is perpendicular to the skin, so each strand should stretch slightly away from the head.

Then you move on to the second and third sections, the temples. They are also cut from the forehead to the back of the head. In each strand, grab a little hair from the first, already trimmed section — this way you will see the correct length of the hairstyle. As you go, take a closer look at the condition of the hair on the client's head. For example, if you are cutting a man's hair who has a receding hairline at the temples, on top of his head, or a wide parting line, leave longer hair nearby to hide these errors. If the client has large ears, arrange the hairstyle so that the hair covers the ears or is longer behind the ears, then they will not seem so big. The fourth section is located around the head, and the angle of the haircut follows the shape of the head. Now you hold your fingers and scissors almost vertically. Be careful around your ears. You can handle the fifth and sixth sections as well as the fourth. While passing through each of them, keep the scissors tilted at the same angle relative to the head. However, when processing the hair below the nape (sixth section), you will need to change the angle of the haircut to better shape the back of the hairstyle. When you're done with that, take a look at what happened. It makes sense to go through the six sections a second time, pulling back the strands of hair to make sure that they are all neatly trimmed. Check the length of the strands at the border between your imaginary sections — is everything in order here? Where you took the strands vertically, along the head, now take them horizontally, across and also check the length. Imagine what a client's head would look like if all his hair stood on end at once. Is this what you wanted? Check again how you got the perimeter of the haircut. That's all. The hair is dry, the haircut is finished. Now you can finally dry them with a hair dryer, wind them on curlers, make a parting, comb them in the right direction. To spice up your hairstyle, wrap your hair a little on a round brush and dry it with a hair dryer. The hairstyle will look more natural if you don't try too hard to curl the ends of your hair. Now you can fix it with a spray and expect gratitude from the client. Risk-conscious bettors often look for structured promotions with clear limits.
