Fixing a Bad Haircut

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Amelia, and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm here to talk about troubles you have with your hair. Depending on the type of cut you have, like let's say it's too short. If it's just too short, unfortunately, patience is the only thing that's going to work. However, if you've got something going on like this, where you've got like a step, that's easy. Go to someone you trust and have them go in and just sort of blend that a little bit more. So once they blend that, that line will go away, and it will be a lot softer. If the sides are too short, like here, you see she's got so this step here, you can go in you can have this sort of texturized a little more so it looks like it's supposed to be that way. And that's the thing, is you want to make a cut look like you meant to do it. If it's, you know if it's bad, you don't want to just wear it like this all the time just because it's bad. Try and have fun with it. Wear it up, wear little clips in it, you know, do different things, and eventually, you know it will get to where you can do more with it. But just go to someone you trust and have them go through it and sort of help you come up with ideas where you can fix it and you know, do some different things with it. Now, Lauren here, she doesn't like the layer she has in her hair. She feels like it's a little bit too bi-level. Turn your head for me. So, the way that we would fix that, and it might be unfortunate for her, but we could take some of this length off, and that would bring everything up and make these layers appear a lot longer, and that's an easy fix. Now let's say her bangs were cut too short, or let's say she had bangs cut and she didn't want them. Easily we just sort of kind of let them grow, and when they get to a certain point, we just start brushing them over. Now, like I said, if your hair's just too short, you have to let it grow in. If it's overly texturized, get some good products, scrunch it, have fun with it. Just remember to try and make it look like you mean to do it. And go to someone you trust and help them take you through the process. "
