Cutting the First layer of Curly Hair

Video Transcript

On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Lizbeth Muller from Liz's Hair Design in Hollywood, Florida, and today we're going to show you how to cut curly hair. I'm going to go ahead and start layering her hair and I'm going to bring her down, because I am small. Bring the client to a level that you're comfortable when you're cutting the layers in the hair. Right there. I divided before and I'm going to divide it once more, because layers can be complicated. If you're new at doing this or maybe you've been doing it for a while. Most people like to divide and make sure that they're even and that they keep themselves going. Here we go. I'm going to make sure that I've got a very good line. Take your layer. I'm going to go across this way. Take my first layer. I want this to be long layers. Make sure that you have straightness to it. She's got wave and you're not going to get even. Make sure you go across and upward like this in an angle. This might be a 95-degree angle. Not sure, but you angle it like this and you cut straight across like this above the fingers. I'm cutting about half an inch.
