Thank you. This videos are very useful and interesting and I appreciate your effort. The only one problem is that you have choosed a room with poor ilumination, you need more lights and please, don´t use dark hair for the explanations in a dark room, it would be better a blonde one to visualize better. Thank you very much for your work.

How to Create Texture in Women's Hairstyles: Part 1

Hi, I'm Chris Faircloth, Artistic Director and co-owner of Salon Teez. For Expert Village, this is how to trim women's hair. One of the easiest ways to create texture in the hair is by point cutting using a regular pair of shears. By doing this, we'll actually use a vertical type of section because a vertical section creates elongation. We don't necessarily want to create any more weight in the hair, we just want to create simple easy, very very soft layers. So we'll use a vertical type of section, holding the section out and then fanning the hair out with our fingers by rounding them out. Now I'll use my shears to come in and point cut. Be careful not too close on the way into the fingers as you may cut your finger. What we want to do is actually place the shears in and then cut as we're coming out. So we'll fan the hair out, again, I'm cutting on my way out and just working around the hair that I've pulled out. That creates a nice, soft, but you can see the layers that I've created in the hair. By doing that and fanning it out, it actually creates a nice soft effect, rather than a hard effect that we'll get when we cut layers into the hair that look more like steps. This is very soft and just tends to blend in to the hair so as not to really see the layers but once we push the hair up, we'll be able to see more of them as they lay softer and it tends to melt into the hair. We will maintain the length of the hair but now we've just added some nice very very soft layering to the hair that gives the hair an extra bit of movement.
