easy way to cut a one length and layers at home by yourself.
steps:
1- part your hair the way you always part it (if both sides use a middle part)
2- part straight down the middle in the back
3- find a reference point to determine how short you want this to be (for example, I am using my shoulder; you can also use a horizontally striped shirt and use a stripe from the shirt as a reference point- this works really well for longer hair)
4- comb one side of hair to make sure there are no tangles- the other side should be clipped up
5- grab the section of hair with two fingers (crab claws) and slide them down to your reference point
6- finger position should be diagonal forward (think of longer to shorter- longer towards the front of the face)
7- start cutting right under your fingers (be careful, do not cut on top of them). The cutting position matches your finger position (if your crab claws are slightly diagonal, you are cutting right under them also slightly at a diagonal)
If you have a lot of hair, it is best to do this in sections—cutting this in one big section as I did will result in a stairstep look and require a lot of refining at the end.
8- repeat for the other side
9- Check for balance by sitting straight up, keeping your feet flat, and feeling to see if they are even. If they are not, correct the longer side until they match
10- you can point cut this (taking your shears, just using the tip going in an up-down position); this will remove the harsh line
11- to create layers, take a horseshoe section starting right above the temples
12- clip the bottom portion of your hair away- this is the foundation or length- you do not want to cut into this
13- take everything in the horseshoe section and direct it forward; find a reference point on your face where you want the shortest layer to be (I used the bottom of my lip ) I would suggest cutting them very long at first- if you cut these too short (if you used your eyes for example as a reference point) you will get a mullet haircut
14- cut straight across at your reference point; point cut to refine the harsh line
15- to blend the disconnect (layers to length) point cut to connect the line
16- to remove the weight in the two back corners, take a pie slice where the corner is and, hold it directly out, let the bottom portion fall (that is your length)
17- there should be a triangle where weight is gathering; cut the tip off the triangle
*This haircut is intended for people cutting their hair at home by themselves. If you are in a salon setting, you would do a square one-length haircut followed by round layers to achieve this look, cutting the hair where it naturally falls.
