Steps
Method 1 of 2: Work on long hair
Prepare to cut hair floors. Start with clean, damp hair because wet hair is often difficult to control its length. Use a wide-toothed comb to brush off tangled hair to create even layers of hair. Gather all of your hair on top of your head. Keeping the ponytail on top of the head, brushing the surface flat on the back of the head with a brush. Bow your head, brush your hair forward, and use your hands to bring your hair into a ponytail at the top of your head. Use an elastic band to tie your hair, then straighten. Make sure all the hair is straight and smooth, as tangles or debris will cause the layers to become tangled. Move the elastic around the hairline. Use one hand to hold the ends of the hair and slide the elastic down with the other hand until it is only a short distance from the ends.If you just want a light layered hairstyle, slide the elastic down until it is about 2.5 cm or equivalent length. For bolder layers, you'll have longer ends.
- To keep your hair from getting too short in the front and long in the back, slide the elastic until some of the hair falls around your neck.
Cut the ends of your hair. Hold the hair in the position where the elastic is tied to prevent it from falling out. Use scissors with sharp blades to cut just above the elastic part of the hair, then shake your head so that the hair comes out.
- If your hair is quite thick, you will divide the ends into sections to cut. Just make sure each section is cut at the same length above the elastic.
- Be careful not to place the scissors in an inclined line or slip the scissors. Cut only one line to have equal floors.
Examine the layers of your hair. This method creates a few layers of hair in the front that hug the face and layers of hair in the back. If you want to adjust the length of the layers, you can use scissors to carefully trim each section of hair.
- Be sure to cut slowly and carefully to avoid making mistakes or cutting too much hair.
Method 2 of 2: Work on short hair
Prepare to cut floors for short hair. It is better to cut the floors while the short hair is still damp; so you can cut the length exactly. Wash your hair and conditioner as usual, then dry your hair with a towel to prepare for the cut.
- Cutting layers on short hair is harder to do with long hair, as you'll cut each layer separately. Note that this method is only applicable to hairstyles. Take a look at your hair to determine where you want to cut the floor and the length of each layer before starting to cut.
- Have a well-lit bathroom cut with at least two mirrors so you can regularly check your progress and easily see the back section.
Divide hair into chunks. You need to divide your short hair into small sections before cutting. Carefully divide the hair with the comb into small sections in the following way:
- Divide the hair on the top of the head by taking a line on the sides of the head, from the forehead to the back. These two parting lines will create part of the hair in the middle of the head.
- Comb the hair from the center of the head forward and comb the hair on the sides for a smooth straightness; thus, the hair sections are clearly demarcated. In addition, twisting your hair before cutting is also helpful.
- Divide the middle part of the hair into two parts: the first from the top towards the forehead and the second from the top towards the neck.
Use a comb to pull up the front hair. Lift up the hair so it is perpendicular to the head and hold firmly with the index and middle fingers. The fingers will be positioned perpendicular to the forehead. Cut off the middle part of the head. Use sharp scissors to cut the ends of the hair below the two fingers. Drop your hair, then comb another part of your hair - it's the part right behind the part you just cut. Next, add a bit of hair from the first part of the hair and add it to the new hair. This will be a model for you to cut your hair to the exact length. Clip the hair between your index finger and thumb and keep it perpendicular to the head, then cut it so that the hair is about the same length as the first part of the hair.
- Continue cutting the middle part of the hair until the middle front and back part of the hair is cut.
- Fill a spray bottle with water to keep your hair moist while cutting. If your hair is too wet, dry it with a towel.
- Notice which parts of the hair are cut and which parts are not. When dealing with short hair, having it cut a part of hair twice makes a huge difference.
- All hair must be cut to the same length. When the cut is finished, the hair will be layered.
Turn the center of the hair. When all the hair in the middle is cut off, you will change the part of the hair by brushing the hair sideways for a center part. Cut the sides of the hair. Handle the hair from the front to the back of the head, take the sections of hair from the top of the head and sandwich it between your index finger and thumb. Hold your hair so your fingers are perpendicular to your forehead. Use scissors to cut each part of the hair, then move on to another part. Repeat until the upper part of hair is cut off on one side, then move to the other side. Examine the layers of your hair. If you find any part of the hair is not even or you want to cut it into a shorter layer, you will use scissors to carefully cut each small section of hair. At this step, you can also trim the edges of your hair. Comb the hair into the desired style and trim the edges. Examine the hair around the ears and especially the hair behind the hairline.
