    I watched this video 3 years ago when we couldn’t go to the hairdressers and it worked so well! I haven’t been to a hair dresser since. Every time I need to cut my hair I come back to this video! Thank you so much!! 😁 saved me so much money and time! 🥰
  • Easiest hair cutting video ever! Love how she gets right to the point and doesn’t just talk talk talk. Thank you!!

    At first I wondered why it looked like she had ponytails in the back, then I realized it’s the mirror. 😂
  • The only stylist I trusted with my straight hair had left my salon during Covid 😟 My hair had grown out really long with terrible split ends. I tried your cut about 8 months ago because your tutorial made it look soo easy & your cheerfulness helped me get up the nerve to cut it myself ✂️ Even though I have arthritis in my hands, I managed to get it done, and was amazed how great it turned out ! I'm getting ready to use your technique again. Just wanted to say Thank you ⚘️

    I have very long hair & I always do this for a trim. It works. I'm not wasting money at the salon just for a trim. If you have thick hair like me, you need to be extra careful. Take your time & use the correct scissors. Don't use typical scissors, get the ones specifically for hair! Make sure your hair is damp/wet! It'll make it easier. Also, don't cut too much off your first time! Get comfortable with it!

    Had a breakup Felt disgusting Cannot go out due to Covid Needed some bad bi*ch energy Chopped down half of my hair Feeling great😎 Thank you so much for this method❤❤❤❤
  • This is how I’ve always done it too. After i’ve cut the ‘beard’ i take out the elastic and brush the hair flat down on each side - then make adjustment and make sure the hair is the same lengt on each side.. After that i take the elastic, make a normal low ponytail, bring the ponytail to the front on first the one side - cut any longer hairpieces, then bring/drag the ponytail in the front on the other side and cut off any longer pieces there also. It always work out like that.
  • Ok, so I was scrolling through all the videos on how to trim your own hair and there was waaay too many that had you turn your head upside down, pull your hair this way, that way, tie off here, tie off there, and then decided to check this out. OMG! Like you said, “BOOM”, I was done! Never using any other technique but yours. Thanks for sharing and saving us money!

    I never cut my hair on my own before and I tried this today. 😱 It came out beautifully 🥰🥰 Thank you so much for this tutorial! I recommend it to anyone

    I don’t get my hair cut very often as I find it hard to make the time with three young children and the thought of cutting it myself terrified me! However I decided to check YouTube to see how people do it and this is the first video I watched. She did such an amazing job and made it look so simple I decided to give it a try and wow was it ever easy and didn’t take much time at all!! Thank you so much for posting this video and I loved your whole attitude towards cutting hair - why make it complicated!
  • @emurcia
    The money your video has saved me since I watched it...thank you for the great quality video, appreciate it!
  • @riseabove3133
    Amazing! Thank you so much! I’ve never heard of the beard technique but I just tried it and it came out great! I have long, very thick hair and as caregiver for a disabled family member, I just cannot get out of the house for hours at a salon. What a gift you just gave me❣️

    I have done the U-shape cut "beard cut" a few times and loved it. I hadn't cut my hair in 2, or 3 years! So, it was definitely due for a couple of inches to trim today. My hair is very long so I had to use 4 hair bands. This is my forever go-to hair trimming technique! I love that it only gives a little bit of shape and layering. I hate the sharp V cut, too many layers for my liking.
  • @denisemoye495
    It looks fantastic! There are so many hair tutorials on YouTube since ‘covid’ so many hairdressers will find themselves out of a job because if you find a technique that works for you, why bother going to a hairdressers. You’ve found a good length cutting technique and long layers technique. There are other more advanced YouTube tutorials but actually, they have the same end effect so from what I’ve seen, this is just perfect. ♥️
  • I just did your beard method and it worked! Had a glass of white wine as I chopped away! I love it....& yes it’s me talking and not the wine. Thanks so much from a broke divorced single mom for saving me money.
  • @caroona123
    Thank you, this made my life 100% easier in about 2 minutes! Like you I had tried other methods with lots of steps and this is so much better and the bottom line is so much more precise now. Yay! Thank you!

    I keep coming back to this video. My hairdresser's cut was getting expensive, and I was getting that thin "V" in the back when she was done (no matter how much I tried to explain). I was getting unhappy with it, even though I loved her. This works! I do this, then layer in the front with a razor. Luckily, with long hair, you can get away with minor things. Get compliments all the time, and saves money. Covid lockdown taught us a lot about ourselves. Thanks for your lovely video! ❤
  • @romanticidexx
    This cut worked REALLY well for my hair, which is curly, thick, bleached, & past my butt long 😅 I only did 2 inches to try it out, & the most difficult & time consuming part of this was separating my hair because I cut it while it was wet. If your hair is long & hard to brush without tangling like mine, I would definitely suggest doing this with dry, flat ironed hair. I took a little bit extra while cutting straight up instead of doing the ponytail cut.
