Hi everyone! it's April. I'm here with my friend Melissa we're going to do an Asymmetric A-line
this is going to be really short around the ear on one side
then a regular a-line on the other side and it's going to have a really run textured bang and really short in the back
you are going to need a good pair of shears a razor, you are going to need some thinning shears
and I have these chunky texture shears also
they are really fun then I have a T-edge trimmers
and this will be to clean up her n
eck and then several clips
and a wide tooth comb and you're going to start by combing the hair and you will part it off in 4 sections
and we'll also have a bang section so you will do a triangle
i'll do that first right in the middle of both eyes go ahead and bring diagonal sections
up and it should make a triangle and then we'll clip this away you're going to go straight back and go all the way back to the back of the head and her hair is already pretty short
so i'm combing it away and then we
're going to take right on the top of her head where the comb hits that's how you know you are at the tip right at the top you are going to take a down section
horizontal section down from the top of her head to the back of her ear so those are going to be the sections
were gonna work with you can clip them up to keep them clean and out of the way alright so to decide what way we're having all this hair go to we just have to decide which way she parts her hair
she parts her hair on this side goi
ng to the right.
right?? it goes to the right. Okay i had to make sure I couldn't remember
so this bang will be this way alright
so the left side is going to be the short side and the right will be the long side I'll start in the back and i'm going to take two more sections just because her hair is already really short just below where the comb leaves the head right there I'm going to take that just comb it down
i'm going to put this up in a clip and the same on the other side
these are diagonal
sections so it should be like a triangle shape on
the bottom so i'm going to work on this back section first
i'm going to go ahead and grab my razor look down for me
i'm going to razor out this hair as short as we can get it
right where it starts to grow and you do this by holding good tension there then slowly walking the razor slowly pushing the razor down in a soft motion that we'll take care of chopping it off for you
but it keeps it really soft if you want a really hard line you would go i
n with the shears but I want it to stay soft and blended okay and then I just have a guard on my I have a really good guard on my razor so I can go through and shave the back of her neck and I'll
probably go with the T-edgers after when it's all dry to get the little ones that it missed
but just to clean it up for now alright so that's the length on the bottom we're gonna go ahead and take one inch sections and we are elevating this out 90 degrees from the head and i'll take my razor and go righ
t behind my fingers and slowly shave it down
so it's nice and tight I will go all the way across the head doing this in this back section
and this is taking out all the heaviness and weight right there it's going to be really tight now that we have the back as short as we want it
one more little piece here we are going to let these two sections down
if we were doing a regular a-line we would be taking these two sections and doing both of them as a diagonal this sides going to be a lot shorter
p
art it down the middle I'll start working with the side thats going to be the a-line so i'll comb this over so I can keep it away
and i'll work on this side grab your shears
and i'm going to take diagonal sections and I cut this already
so that will be my guide I'm going to take maybe an inch above where we cut
and i'm going to comb this up and away because it's too short for a clip combing up the opposite direction of the part will keep it clean enough to where you can work still
if that makes
you nervous you can still clip it up i'm not going to
alright so we will take this hair up now we're going to follow the diagonal parting that we just made and we'll keep the hair really tight to the head keep your fingers right against the head
and point cut and just cut along this line so it's going to be
perpendicular to go back and check it make sure you didn't get any long hairs you can really quick pull it up and make sure that you have that same angle that the part is at then i'm going to
take another section
another inch down do the same thing and i'm going to hold my hands at the same spot i'm over directing the hair to that same spot all right and then the rest it
i'll pull it all down see if it meets up with it it does
if you are dealing with really long hair you can take it in two more sections but i'm not make sure you can see your guide okay so that side in the back is cut we have this nice shape coming this way now we're going to meet up with this one and keep it at an a
ngle that's more straight across the weight line for this one is going to end up being right here
so this weight line needs to flow back over into this and so this is
going to be short underneath i'm going to section it off so it's a little bit easier to see what i'm doing. and you notice I took more of a straight section because that's the line we are going to be cutting on this side now i'm going to pull it up and meet it up to this other side of the A-line
right here you can see the guide tha
t's the end of this side where it starts for the A-line
pull it straight up to that and point cut following this parting
and remember we pulled that parting. we are straight instead of angled so just keep doing that i'm combing this hair up because there are some longer hairs from her older A-line haircut i'm going to go back in and fix those
but I want to make sure that I get all of them into this weight line shape for the parting that we just took i'm going to go back through and make sure i
t all matches up deep point cutting okay and then take down another section you should be able to see the guide
underneath from your last section on this one If you can't then you took too much hair just part it off a little bit thinner so you can see it that last little bit
pull that triangle down too not very much of that will probably meet up so just cleaning it up to make sure you don't have any long pieces hanging over there you have it okay so this is a
little bit of a corner left over fro
m her other a line so you can do two things with this
you can leave it and have a fun little wispy down here with fun texture or you can chop it off because I might want to keep it I'm just gonna
leave a little bit of it right down there for fun now and then when it's dry if I
decide it looks funny I can chop it off for now it could be really cute it could be her little tail so we are going to keep that there
i'm going to take a diagonal forward section right here
then comb all this back so all
of this is going to be meeting up with her fringe then have lots of really fun, long chunky pieces coming around her face
then it'll be a little bit shorter up around her ear.
i'm going to use the razor just to get most of the length off i'm going to go in and chip away at it i'm going to take my scissors and i'm going to let the hair fall and cut some deep point cuts
be really careful around the ear with this make sure you are not cutting any of their face or ear and i'll notch out the texture
for her ear you can put your hand underneath if you are nervous okay so then this little piece in the
back that was really long i'm going to blend that into the hair that I cut right here
and you can see it's hanging like a half of an inch over her ear I might clean that up with the razor later
but I do want to leave the length so that I can have more room to play with the texture I'm going to pull this over and blend the two sections together that takes care of that
really long tail that we had
but we still have this little chunk right here thats long
I like that so we're gonna leave that for now alright so that's the ear we're gonna going to go over here and stick the scissors in like this the shears and walk out some chunks When I say walk with the scissors
I mean barely opening and closing like that that gives you a really fun texture
you can see it it's all around that is really fun I'm going to take the razor and texture this piece out a little bit more
it's a little bit thick s
till alright if you drop your comb get a new one because you're not supposed to put dirty combs
on peoples heads of course get a new clean comb
alright so that shape right around there
it kind of comes to a point here and now we're gonna take down the rest
of this hair so go ahead and take one last parting we're going to follow around this guide that we have right here i'll bring this up to it and point cut it out so I can see this short part right here that's where I want it to meet up with
I
want it to go around her head okay let's chop it off to get some of the length off alright so now i'm going to go in and do some round layering around the edge so what we're going to do is take off this point i'm going to start just behind the ear i'm going to take this up and blend it into this the weight line that we have from the
other section from pulling it straight-out so we're going to just go ahead and
round it up with the head i'm going to point cut there we go
do that all the way acros
s to the front end alright so there is the short side
we're going to go to the other side now and to the a line in the front if you remember we have this angle established already none of this hair should meet back here because I've already had her hair in a haircut
but in an a line haircut since you guys might not have that with your clients I'm gonna show you what you should do:
so you already have this section all cut
so you'll take the next section up from this one
and bring it back to the s
ame guide that you established before that's at this angle you'll be able to see it
and you will point cut and go all the way down and point cut all of this hair will eventually go back
and be over directed to that back section and cut it and then that should take care of
your front section alright so now for the fringe
we are going to let this down and all this is going to be coming so
now all this will be coming forward and over let's do it like this there we go
okay so we already have this ar
ea that we've already cut
we will take it and we will blend in that short piece to the long piece there's a couple ways to do this
you can come on the opposite side and pull it back over and this is
the way i'm going to do it. so this section is just up here
this little triangle that we took you're gonna find the shortest piece
and go a little bit longer than that you don't want to cut it quite that short and you're just gonna take the scissors and slide it down to cut the longer piece and then
that should just blend it on over
now the basic haircut is done there is a lot of texturing I want to do with this I want to give her a little bit of spiky texture over here I'm gonna take
this section up here and curve it over and you can see the guide so this is stretched over from where it
would be the a line i'm taking this top section over here and stretching it over this way and point cutting into it to match it up to the shorter piece so you are going to take pie shaped sections on the t
op it's like a triangle
you bring it over here make sure that it matches that
do another one there we go last one right here K so that should give you some layers
from this short piece over on top I'm gonna go ahead and take thinning shears since it's still wet
and thin this out because I can tell right now it's way bulky
theres tons of weight in it
we want it to be really soft and there's another comb
that's two combs! there we go
number 3. I have a pile of fresh combs back there
because I rea
lly do drop my combs a lot i'm going to take the thinning shears and try to remove some of this heaviness right around her face
we want this to lay down and be soft and around her ear this is that section I was talking about
that was left over from the a line I think I am going to take some of it out to shape it in a little bit
just take the razor in and knock it out there we go and the thinning shears
i'm going to take the thinning shears to this little section right here too she have tons of h
air and then along this weight line in the back here too just to take some of that heaviness out i'm going to dry this now and flat iron it
and i'll do some more cutting this is just some root pump
the big sexy hair makes it oh my gosh
spray it across the room Just a little bit in the crown area i'm blowdrying this forward
all of this will be coming forward this will be round brushed out this side i'm blowing up in the mohawk section
just to get the body in the crown loving this fun texture we h
ave around her face I am going to chip away at this some more just to blend it in a little bit more so it's not hanging there and maybe just a little bit of texture
through this you can see in the back it has this really fun shape
it swoops over and it has a hollow area here and then lots of thickness around here it's a really fun shape back there i'm going to flat iron it and we'll see how much texture we need to do she has a little bit of curl in her hair that's why i'm flat ironing it if you
have somebody with really straight hair you don't need to flat iron it to do the texture
I want to make sure I know where I'm getting the texture out
and she will be styling it with a flat iron I need it to be straight
this is a disconnect here because we have this short section here that came in and then the bangs are blending it in I want to see a little bit more texture right here so I"m going to take the razor and put some more texture so I she can get some more height so it blends in a litt
le bit more
it still is a good disconnect Just from what i'm looking at I think that's what it needs also in the bangs
and we can do this with the shears too i'll show you a couple techniques
this is channel cutting where you cut out a channel stick them right in there
you are slowly opening and closing the shears like this you're keeping that one blade stationary so it's not cutting the rest of the hair underneath it doesn't poke them in the head if you do it that way I'm gonna lift up this cro
wn area and
just it's really dense I'm just gonna deep point cut in you can fan it out with your knuckle
if you just shove your knuckle in like that i'll take this section and so some of that really deep point cutting also now i'm going to do some twist cutting
this is really run take the little pieces right here you twist them up
and take the shears and walk up that gives you some really fun texture and I will thin that because it's still too dense there we go
see how much softer that is you c
an see through it I want this to be a little bit more tight around her ear I will take the thinning shears up just texturize it and then if it's still too thick you can take the razor
and cut out a little bit more that's better that gives it more of an angle
in towards her face this way
a better shape shear over comb
texturizing a little bit more this way lots and lots of hair
it's really thick in here too i'll take my shears do a little bit more channel cutting right in here so just to get some
of the loose hair out i'm going to blow dry it again then to style this we're going to use a pomade maybe we'll use Redkin today
this is the rewind from Redkin
fun stuff it's a really soft pomade
it's moveable but it does give you some piece keeps the texture really soft and pliable let see
I like working it around the face with this stuff there's that really long piece
I like it i'm not going to cut it off
because I think it's fun to have some personality in there there is a little bit right
here in the back but it's cute
so i'm going to leave it I put it on my hands and work it through the hair alright you guys
that is our asymmetric haircut-/ one side pixie one side a line it's really fun and popular right now
Kind of looks like the girl on wreck it ralph she's not blond
if she was blond she'd totally be rocking the wreck it ralph hair and she smokin hot so watch out guys and i'm going to shoot it with
some big sexy hair spray to hold it in place because that rewind is not super
sticky
like i said it's softer so once you get your hair where you do like it you probably do need to shoot it with some hairspray this is one of the 3 series haircuts we are going to do on her the next one is going to be a really fun mohawk we are going to grow for like 6 weeks then we'll be back to show you that haircut i'm really excited because in a couple days i'm going to be shooting a video with a shear guy and he's going to tell us all the things we need to know about shears
and how to t
ake care of them i've been getting a lot of questions about my thinning shears and all that stuff
and we will take care of all those questions in the next video so make sure you tune
in for that subscribe to my videos and make sure you give us a thumbs up and share this with your friends and we will see you guys next time thanks bye
