A little thought

Which you can ignore without risk. A blog serves as a reminder to myself about my objectives, priorities, and mistakes, much like a diary does for me.

Reasons for a haircut

My thoughts on the day I bleached and reddened my hair were something like this:

Since I’ve wanted to for a while, I’ll give it a try. After a month of wearing it, I’ll cut it off. If I don’t like it, I’ll immediately stop receiving it. I still intend to trim the ends that are frayed.

I did, in fact, get a haircut nearly right away after dying. Without any regret, I then parted with the bio-curl’sremnants.These ends, which had been severely damaged by tangles and breaks during dyeing, did not survive.

By the way, my appearance greatly improved after I gave my remaining hair the proper care. Because of this, I loved the new vibrant, juicy color so much that I wore it that way for the entire summer, followed by the entire fall, and nearly the entire winter, putting off getting the bleached section trimmed as long as I could.

But regardless of how long I put it off, getting a haircut has long since become necessary because the ends have been calling for one. It is obvious in comparison that bleached hair is thinner than henna. Taking care of the colored portion of hair can be quite tricky and unpredictable. There is frailty no matter how hard I try.

Six months without a haircut has left the braid extremely thin at the ends (~1.5 cm near the elastic band and thinning out to a thread), and the cut is extremely frayed. In addition, I believe that cutting my already thin hair into a semicircular shape was a poor choice. It also has an effect on how the hair looks; the ends are "liquid," and the bottom is translucent. I believe you comprehend who I am.

The frequent changes in care, in my opinion, are the primary cause of what transpired. An extra layer of sadness was the hair loss that came with autumn. I tried a lot of new products over the fall, and I’m glad I was able to accomplish my goals despite having long-term dreams about them. It was to be expected that not every product was a hit.

Furthermore, if using improper care for a while is not necessary for healthy hair, then this did not work on blonde hair. Even though the hair appeared healthy on the outside, dryness and brittleness started to appear right away. I also didn’t always take a new, and sometimes unsuccessful, product instead of transferring from unsuitable to tried-and-true ones. This is not something you can do!

Naturally, I immediately repaired them using ampoules and my indispensable Lebel Viege SOS product. However, once something has fallen off, it cannot be put back, so it was time to let go of the thinning length.

I don’t regret what happened at all; rather, it serves as a reminder that improper care shouldn’t be "finished off," just as you shouldn’t abuse alternate care. Of course, new products are interesting, but I experienced too much novelty too quickly.

Yes, to tell the truth, I’m sick of "shaking over." I now drop my hands in extreme frustration when I see pieces or a thinned cut. There are differences between lovingly administering procedures and shaking your hair and lamenting every strand. You should still be happy with your hair. Is the length unfortunate? Not at all. I’m not interested in measuring centimeters; my aim is not to grow it to my waist or, at the very least, my butt. It’s great that my hair is still long enough for me. A priority is having healthy hair growth.

Why do it yourself?

Girls who cut their own hair do so primarily because they have mistrust for hairdressers. Yes, a bad haircut certainly caused a lot of tears to be shed! The length never bothered me, and I had no regrets. However, I frequently had to recut an uneven haircut after the salon. Additionally, the recent lockdown got me to thinking: sometimes getting to the hair salon is just not possible.

This time, though, I experimented with my self-haircut out of curiosity. I’ve already had two haircuts, both of which I believe have been successful, and I’ve decided to tell you about them. I found the technique to be very easy to use, simple, and effective. Additionally, know that it is simple to trim the ends yourself if you find yourself in a situation where you have neither the time nor the desire to visit a hair salon but still want to.

My experiment

Preparation

Get everything ready before the haircut. We’ll require:

  • Scissors. It is important that they are of high quality, special hairdressing. I have Dewal.
  • Comb. I take my favorite detangling brush and a comb – such a narrow thin tip is convenient for parting.
  • A lot ofhair elastics, with thin ones I had more convenient than with spirals or wide fabric elastic bands.
  • Mirror. If possible, install two mirrors opposite each other, so the view will be better.
  • Hairdressing cape. Better with it than without – cut hair can fall on clothes.

Cutting can be done in two different ways: straight or semicircular. I tried both approaches, and it worked out nicely.

I will tell you step by step what I did.

The process of haircuts

Direct cut

1. She parted her hair straight from the forehead to the crop. I gather at the back of the head in a low tail. The tail must then be intercepted multiple times with rubber bands. More rubber bands are preferable. I put on each elastic band and then I comb my hair. Additionally, avoid throwing your hair over your shoulder as this will cause the cut to become uneven as the locks stretch out. It was challenging to stretch on top of the lower rubber bands, so I had to guess from below with my hands. This is how it ought to work out:

2. Choose the amount of shaking you desire. Place the second gum from the bottom at this point.

3. The most important phase. It is a good idea to reconsider how much you wish to cut off, and using a centimeter tape won’t be unnecessary. the window of opportunity when you can decide against something or change the length of your next haircut. I cut everything as much as possible.

4. I grab a pair of scissors. For some reason, I’m concerned. Breathe in and out, then measure the cut’s length once more. Alright, let’s get started! I used two rubber bands to cut the braid’s end.

5. After taking off every rubber band, I comb my hair. Completed!

You can be proud of the outcome! The cut is even and tidy, so I believe it turned out nicely. Naturally, I was afraid that it wouldn’t work out and that I would have to cut it again; I was ready to give up a few more centimeters of length. However, that wasn’t required.

And let’s compare, before/after:

Semicircular cut

I didn’t take close-up pictures of each step when I chopped my hair in this manner in June.

1. Gather all the supplies you’ll need for the haircut, including a mirror, a cape, combs, and lots of rubber bands. Wet your hair. Comb.

2. Part the hair in a straight line from the forehead to the back of the head, dividing it into two sections. Comb and toss the hair forward. Rubber bands are now required to connect the two sections of the hair; position the first band in front, just under the chin. then it is preferable to use more rubber bands.

3. Using the lower two rubber bands as a guide, we identify the areas that will require cutting, just as in the previous technique. Starting from the bottom, we cut along the second elastic band.

4. Take off every elastic band, then comb through the hair. Completed!

Step Description
1. Prepare your tools Gather scissors, a comb, and a mirror. Make sure your tools are clean and sharp for a smooth cut.
2. Wet your hair Damp hair is easier to control. Use a spray bottle or wash your hair before cutting.
3. Section your hair Divide your hair into manageable sections using hair clips to keep things neat and organized.
4. Start trimming Work slowly from the bottom layer up. Trim small sections at a time to avoid cutting too much.
5. Check the length Regularly check in the mirror to ensure even length on both sides.
6. Finish and style Once you"re satisfied with the cut, dry and style your hair to complete the look.

Although cutting your own hair can be intimidating at first, anyone can learn how to do it with the right tools and some practice. Whether you’re doing a full haircut, shaping layers, or cutting your bangs, being patient and exact will help you get the desired result.

Always begin with damp, clean hair and use sharp, hair-cutting scissors. Your best friend is a mirror, especially for the back of your head. Don’t be scared to regularly assess your progress. Cutting less hair at first is preferable to making adjustments later.

Ultimately, having control over your style and time savings are two benefits of learning to cut your own hair. You’ll become more confident in your method with time and attention, which will make the procedure go more smoothly each time.
