Hey everyone! Cassi here with Kenra Professional I'm excited
to show you this Italian Bob look today; let's get started. [Music] One of the reasons I love
the Rapid Hydration Mask Light is that it's going to be super lightweight for her hair
it's not going to overburden it or weigh it down and give us beautiful shiny healthy hair
in just three minutes. Today I'm going to be using Daily Provision on her hair-- I love
a leave-in conditioner one I use as a cutting lotion it's perfect gives the hair a nice
amount of slip. Now let's get right into the parting I'm going to take her hair after I
comb it out here I'm gonna take her hair and do a simple profile parting um profile parting
just being like a straight back middle section from the front all the way into the parietal
ridge, so I've taken her first section here diagonal forward and this is just going to
be our guide point for her perimeter I'm going to do a point cut. I'm using no tension pulling
the hair out from the head as it lives and coming in using the comb as my guide and point
cutting using no tension will really allow her hair to just live in its most perfect
place and she won't have to fight it nearly as much when she blows it
dry. I'm doing a diagonal forward parting, but I'm doing a really more square line in the back and you can see that
again by using her natural hairs fall the texture will really be allowed to show. Next
section same diagonal forward parting now on these sections I am going to be using my
fingers as my guide-- I'm going to be pulling out just a little bit I'm going to be creating
a soft graduation in this cut not a dramatic graduation but it is a soft graduation again
this is going to give her a nice amount of movement throughout the hair pulling it down
and squaring my line I'm making sure that all the sections stay in the back of the head again and instead of following the hair around
her head, I'm pulling it back into a straight line, and now I'm just right at right above the
occipital bone I'm going to keep her head leaned forward until this point all the way
through this next section and then I'll be able to put her hair back in an upward position.
Things I always try to like be mindful of when I'm doing a cut that is blunt on the
bottom-- when I'm holding the hair that I'm not flipping out my guideline, so I'm making
sure that I'm always pulling my guide down straight so you can see that. If I was to flip the hair, I'm actually going
to create a flip on the bottom of her hair that we'll be fighting again later when she's
trying to blow dry. Another pro tip that's super important when you're cutting you always
want to make sure that you're not pulling down so much hair that you can't see that
guide underneath if you can't see what you're cutting you can't see that guide you've taken
too much hair never guess always make sure that you're checking and you can see what
you're doing. You can already see how cute what this length is going to look really great
on her. again with these sections, I'm pulling my lines
straight to the back straight to the back so there will be a little bit of over direction
as I come around to the sides here-- again, just preserving some of that length not creating a dramatic A-line but
preserving some of that length. Now from this point, I'm going to be working one side and then
coming back and working the opposite side so I'll be finishing this full side first
and then going over on the other side still maintaining a slight diagonal forward line letting the
hair fall on more in its natural position and you'll see I'm going to work from the
back standing at the back working around to my sides again over-directing and then I'll
come over to my side just to match up. A little pro tip is you can always leave these
longer than you think you need them and then come back in, and the way I check it at the
end is I'll tuck it behind the ear again kind of just preserving that section and I can
cut that point off-- and that will preserve any of that length
in the front. Okay, now we're at a section where it's just the sides, and you can see we're
just going to clean that up and then we'll move on to the other side. So again,
working from the other side I'm going to be starting in the back over directing
slightly and then come to the front. The reason we're doing this is because we'll be adding
some layering to her hair and what I want to make sure is that when she dries or when
we when we do that we're keeping this corner intact so many times we-- we do cuts like this
we add layers in and then they end up really rounded out in the front when we wanted to
keep it more sharp a little bit more bobbish Now with the perimeter finish, I'm going to
come around to the front and just double check my points and make sure that my length matches
up and is correct now we're going to be building in a little bit of layering one of the things
that I notice about Italian Bobs too is a lot of times they have a little bit of a soft
light fly away fringe um so I like to give it like just a nice we're not going to go
for a full fringe or anything but give her a little bit of wispiness a little bit of
airiness and it'll give it a lot more movement just taking a little triangle section here
this is going to be my guide point for my fringing area and this is just a nice little
triangle I'm going to be doing a little bit of slide cutting nothing too dramatic pulling
the hair forward double check engaging that length I love the
wispiness of it the whole idea is that this is very loose and light and airy and carefree
so using that as my guide taking my next section pulling straight out from the head. You can
see how preserving these corners here has helped you know preserve the Bob nature the
more square nature of the Bob but then taking these layers we're not cutting into that so
as long as we're staying in through this top section we're not going to be cutting into
this perimeter guide. I like to do all of this kind of basic cutting wet and then
when I'm finished I can always go back in and do more detail work with it dry. I think
this is gonna be a great cut for her; it's going to be so easy. I think this is something
that she could easily just air dry and go or style in multiple ways. So now I'm just going to go in and do a little
bit of a rough dry, um touch it up as I go with a round brush just to keep the you know
the hair under control and we'll finish her with a little bit of curling iron and some
heat styling. Today I'm going to be using the Volume Mist 2-- one of the things I love about
this is that it's buildable it'll be a real multi-tasker I'm going to use it on her hair
wet I'm going to use it as I'm styling um and it's going to give me buildable volume
it's going to have a light mist that won't weigh her hair down as we use it, so this is
just going to be a real multi-tasker tool and you'll even see at the end how we can
maximize the volume by adding more products. All right, so we're finished with the rough
dry-- first of all let's talk about how much volume she has! This is
wild, I love the voluminous seriously so much volume the thing of it is is that we talked about this in the beginning
with her hair she has a lot of hair but it's so fine it but it is exactly that kind of
hair that can get way down so easily, so I love how light this mist is and how much like
flow and airiness we're getting from her hair. I'm just going to detail it now with a curling
iron um just giving her a nice little beachy wave and we'll show you the end results. So for the curl pattern in this, I'm just going
to do a back and forth curl I'm going to work in a vertical section just a really loose
pulling it through just again a really nice beachy wave Now that she is finished curling, I'm going
to go in with a little bit of our Texturizing Taffy 13 just to give it
a little bit of separation and pieciness. I like to really emulsify it in the palm of my hands and then I pull it
out to my fingertips, I come in underneath and really just pull it forward and break
apart those curls and give it a little bit of texture and then as I was saying before
we can go back in with our Volume Mist, I mean not that she doesn't have enough volume, but
if she wants more we can go back in with our Volume Mist and give her even more added volume--
and that completes our Italian Bob using our Volume Mist 2. [Music] So that's it. This is our final look Reina
