Hi, I dont pat myself on the back for basic cuts because I like funky ones more lolx
although we must all learn the precision cuts and a lot of clients love these too , I realize that these come first before the creative ones ,
basic cuts are quite easy to master and you will sooon get good at it with lots of practice :hug:
it's fitting them onto different head shapes like thinning temples and all sorts of funny shaped hairlines is the hard bit lolx
when you are learning I found that as long as you dont get over confident because thats when things can go wrong ,
so always study the hair and the head shape first and always have a plan in mind , and it wont be long before its all good ,
long hair is the hardest , but dont worry too much as you will never get a long haircut absolutely perfect all over ,
but personally I don't really like plain cuts I prefere a cut to look funky and original ,
I will suggest funky cuts to the client especially if think it will suit them,
some will shy away from this but others love it :lol: lol x
sometimes I won't take longer bits off the fringe or attempt to make it nice and even if it looks good,
because.... I find leaving it a bit uneven or leaving longer bits it looks far btter with it left there ,
I think if another hairdresser went over some of my cuts they could think oh
goodness , who on earth has cut this ???? because it has longer bits here and there ,
so I explain this to the client first ,
I sometimes leave out a longer section or bits just over a fringe area
rather than under the fringe,
this way it doesn't get in the clients eyes but the person can still peep from under a longer more sexy fringe, add a bit of colour to this in just the right place and you can have a really funky little style going on
I think it's really good to think up some great little cuts for yourself too outside the box
