It is not necessary to go to the hairdresser to create an original haircut. Some women of fashion are accustomed to cutting their hair at home and have learned how to hold scissors properly in order to achieve the desired result.
Short hair
To trim the hair and bring the head in order is more convenient when the girl has a short haircut. For everything to work out as needed, you will need scissors and a fine comb. This method is particularly suitable for those who have longer curls on top, and the maximum removed from the bottom. Best of all, if you do a haircut with an understanding assistant.
The whole process can be divided into several stages.
- First, you need to wash your hair or spray it with a spray. In any case, they should be wet before cutting.
- After that, you need to take a comb and divide the curls into three sections. Move in one direction, separating the long curls at the top of the head from the shorter ones on the sides behind the ears and at the back of the head.
- Using the index and middle fingers of the scissor-free hand, you need to select a section of hair from above, lift it straight to see the ends. Then, tightly holding the captured area of hair, cut the required length with scissors to form a straight line. You need to keep the scissors absolutely straight to get a clean cut.
- At the next stage, they take a curl next to the one that has already been cut off, and a part of the hair of the previous one is captured a bit (it will be easier to align the entire haircut with one length).
- When work with the upper part is finished, it's time to move to the sides, where, as a rule, shorter hair. Here again, you need to set the baseline, and then cut off uneven edges, creating the desired length of hair. You should be very careful, because there is practically no room for error.
It also happens that a woman at the bottom has short hair, the length of which is no more than five millimeters with a gradual increase in volume.
In this case, make haircut at home even easier. You should start from the temples, just moving up and putting the comb to the head under the curls. At the same time, everything that is outside the teeth is gradually cut off.
Long hair
It is also possible to independently trim a previously made professional haircut, although it is not always easy. The most important thing here is to cut off the extra length along the already formed contour. The tips trim in the following sequence.
