HOW TO TRIM YOUR OWN HAIR AT HOME | BEAUTY BY DN

hi everyone welcome back to my channel beauty by dn today i'm going to show you guys how to trim your hair right in your own home now i usually recommend that you go see a professional hairstylist to get a trim or a cut however life happens i know a lot of moms who just don't have time to go to the salon maybe you want to save money or maybe your stylist is so booked up and can't see you for another month but your ends are fried well not to worry i've been doing hair for about 10 years now so i've decided to put together a very easy step-by-step tutorial to show you guys how i trim my own hair let's get started [Music] so for this diy trim you will need a fine-tooth comb hair styling shears and four clips to section out the hair i'm going to start off by brushing the hair with the paddle brush we want the hair to be smooth without any knots with the comb we will create a center part to ensure that the part is centered take your comb and line it up to the center of your nose now we will section the sides of the head start at the top of the head and end right behind the ear section out the crown of the head you can use your comb however i'm using my fingers clean sections are very important when cutting hair next section another piece right by the occipital bone leaving out about three inches of the hair by the nape of the head split the hair in half and comb it as straight as possible i will start off by trimming the perimeter of the hair it's time to determine how much you want to trim keep in mind if you have curly hair your hair will be shorter once dried since this is just a trim i'm only trimming about three and a half inches of my hair hold the hair firmly and comb the hair all the way down tilting your head to the side now it's time to cut the hair to your desired length it's important that the sections are not too thick because it will be difficult for the scissors to cut through evenly if you find that your sections are too thick go ahead and take smaller sections before moving on to the other side take out a small section of the hair from the previous cut this piece will be used as a guide continue the same method on the other side of the head firmly comb the hair down tilting your head to the side using the piece of hair as a guide [Music] as you can tell the perimeter of the hair is already looking a lot more healthy now it's time to move on to the section by the occipital bone split the hair in half and continue the same method on both sides of the head i find it easier to place my fingers on top of the comb as it allows for a firm grip as you can see the previous section is shorter and therefore we will use that as a guide [Music] once you're done always cross check to ensure that both sides are even [Music] next undo the section by the crown of the head and repeat the same method as you can see i will be using the previous section as a guide [Music] okay [Music] once the back of the head is complete it's time to move on to the sides of the head tilt your head comb the hair firmly and align your hair with the previous section blending both sides repeat the same method on the other side [Music] once you're all done check the hair to make sure both sides are even and leveled [Music] now that the perimeter of the hair has been done i will begin with subtle face framing layers go ahead and section the sides of the head again behind the ear [Music] tie the rest of the hair into a bun so that it is out of your way take out about half an inch from both sides of the hair the section should be shaped like a triangle determine where you want your face framing layers to start and trim the hair accordingly split the section again down the middle as this piece will now be used as your [Music] guide comb the hair straight down and hold the hair with the firm grip take your shears and gently slide cut the hair getting rid of mostly the dead ends [Music] take the other section and blend the face framing layers slide cut until you are satisfied with the layers once you're done check to see if both sides are even if you find that one side is still a bit longer no worries just go in and trim the layers until you are satisfied i am all done trimming the hair and now i will go in and dry the hair i always prefer to straighten my hair after a trim it allows me to cross check my cut [Music] now that my hair is straightened i'm able to see if my face framing layers are blended the same and i'm able to see if the perimeter of the hair needs to be fixed in this case my hair is all even and i'm happy with the results yay i'm all done okay guys my hair is all done it feels so much healthier it always feels great once you get a trim or a haircut if you notice i only trimmed the ends of my hair and i gave myself subtle layers right at the front um i didn't want to cut layers in the back and that's because i don't want choppy layers it looks great when it's blow dried or curled but once it's all straight then you really see the choppy lines so i highly recommend that you not cut layers in the back of your hair if you want to cut them in the front that's fine if you want to trim your length that's also fine but try to steer away from layers in the back go to the salon for that okay if you found this video helpful please give me a thumbs up and if you're new to my channel please don't
