Hey Guys!
This has been a super requested! I usually go to the salon like twice a year, because hair as long as mine is NOT cheap to get cut, and if I went every single time I needed a trim.. girrrllll I would be broke!!
So, I am a licensed cosmetologist so Im pretty confident in cutting my own hair
It’s really easy to cut your own hair you just need to practise and make sure that you cut it in even sections and not all over the place!
If you are going to be cutting your hair at home regularly, then please invest in some good scissors! Walmart carries scissors for $10 but long term wise, you dont want to use these scissors. I suggest investing in a pair of good salon quality shears that range between $60-90. I know that sounds really pricey JUST for a pair of scissors but honestly, theyll last you for a really really long time.. if not forever! And you can get them resharpened if you feel like theyre getting a little dull (which wont happen as much since you wont be cutting hair as much as a hairdresser does!)
The scissors that I am using are from a brand called Cricket.
I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial!!
Would you guys like to see more hair cutting videos!?
BESOS! <3

)
thank you hunnie! I use Matrix colorcare therapie delicate and for conditioner I only use a leave in from Rusk called Smoother Passion Flower and Aloe xoox
Farah,
Nice video! Wuixk questions: How often do you trim your hair/recommend trimming your hair?
Also, I have a rosewater question and figures this would be the best place to ask
Hi Hunnie! Honestly, it depends on how much heat you put on your hair.. I suggest every month giving it a little trim (u dont have to cut off a lot just the dead ends) so that split ends dont end up going up the hairshaft
Not sure why the previous message cut off but here’s my rosewater q!: so I made the rosewater but it doesn’t have a “sweet” rose smell but more of a “green” smell of this makes sense.. Is this normal?? The roses smelled sweet when I bought them.. Thanks!!
the smell is normal
I find that the good smell comes after I put it in my hair but everyone is different dont let the smell throw you off tho, it still has amazing benefits for you! xo
First of all, I have to say thank you as you are one of the ladies I love to go to for any beauty suggestion.
I have the same question as MEg does:
In between a professional visit, how often do u cut your hair yourself? How often do you recommend should one trim their hair? I also have think hair like yours which is long and I am trying to grow longer like you. Could you please share this info. thanks for the video.
Hi Aneeqa! My pleasure darling!! Like i told Meg, trimming your hair depends on how much heat/damage you put on it.. but to play it safe, i recommend a trim every month just to get the dead ends off
this doesnt mean that you should cut off a lot of hair, it can be the tiniest amount of hair just as long as the ends are freshly cut! xo
Thank you so much for posting this video!!!! You are so gorgeous and I LOVE all your videos!!! I’m so going to give this a shot after I find a solid pair of scissors!!!
I had the same questions as the girls above– how often do you trim your hair?
Thanks again for all the videos! Please keep them coming!
<3
Hi Bhairavi! My pleasure hunnie! thank you so much for all the love!! I cant wait till u try this!! Its gonna be a big money saver haha .. im just gonna copy and paste the answer i gave above so everyone gets the right information

Hi Farah, i love your videos!!!! Would it be possible for you to do an everyday natural makeup look using the UD naked palette. I just bought it and i rarely wear makeup but i decided i wanted to try wearing some as it looks so great on you.
Thanks
Hi Christina! Thank you so much!!! Ill be posting a tutorial with the naked palette soon! Thats a great everyday palette so look out for that.. ill probably do one video with a few different looks just so theres more variety
xoxoxo

What kind of brush are you using at 2:40? Where’d you get it? I’ve been looking for a comb/brush like that for a very long time
Hi there,
i made a search on the web and found that brush.
“Keratin Complex curved vent Brush”.
Found on Ebay and amazon
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=keratin+complex+brush
Farah love ur vids.thanks a lot
that was so sweet of you to find it for me! thank you so much!! xoxo
Someone has posted a link to the brush for you below
I got it for free at sephora when I made a purchase so i dont know if sephora carries it still or the amazon link given below by the lovely Emi would be good as well! thats my favorite brush EVER! It doesnt rip your hair and it massages your scalp so nicely
xo
Hi Farah Sweetie…… I really love your videos and i m also indian:):)……….. Actually i got one question….. i ve straightened my hair 3 months back. but i had a V cut … So Can i try this one???? pls reply da
Hi Hunnie! thank you so much! Yes you can do this haircut even though your hair is in a “V” shape. Because of all the layers that are being put in, this haircut looks similar to a v shape as well! xo
Hey (: you are an amazing person and I want you to know that I really enjoy watching your videos! xox
Can you please do more videos about (Do it yourself tutorials and natural remedies) (DIY Tutorials & Remedies) I would really like see not only on the face but other parts of the body like Skin-lightening , peeling , and others .. thank you sweety
awww thank you so much thats so sweet! I would love to do some more DIY’s since a lot of the stuff i personally use on my body and face are made at home
xoxo
Can you give some tips for underarm whitening sweetie?????
Woud this haircut be good for someone with curly hair?
this haircut is GREAT for curly hair! the only ting I can suggest, is if you do have curly hair, please point cut the ends instead of cutting it straight across. Curly hair can tend to look heavy if you cut the layer straight across
xo
Hi farah, dz is sowmya so many time i have messed but u hve not responded to any one, plz respond to this question, i am sending one link , r u using this shampoo plz conform, if not plz send that which shampoo r u using u send the link.

hi sweetheart! yes that is the shampoo that I use now
i really like it because it is sulfate free, has argan and acai in it! It makes your hair really soft and shiny im sure youll like it
xoxo
Thank you for the new tut, you’re the best! I’ve been anxiously awaiting it. I cut my hair using the other tut and my hair came out great! I think it’s the best cut I’ve ever had. I will try this one this weekend.
my pleasure sweetheart!!!! OMG! thank you so much for telling me!! Im so happy to hear my haircutting videos are turning out good for you!! xoxoxo
Hey Farah!
I am so thankful for all the help you have provided us girls with, thank u so much! Ilive in Miami, Fl and as you know, it’s super sunny andhumid all year round. I was wondering if there is only product or diy treatment youcould refer me to to protect my hair from the suns rays. My hair has gotten so damaged from it. I would really appreciate it. May god bless you
Hey hunnie! ur so lucky u live in miami!! I loved it there! I hope i can visit there again soon!! The only thing i can recommend is that you have a leave in conditioner in ur hair and if you don’t like leave in conditioners, theres a serum by bed head .. i think its called heat and humidity resistant serum thats really really good for pro ducting ur hair from the sun and it good for frizz as well! hope that helps! xo
Hey Farah
The hair cut you give yourself , you never show us the back. So my qwestion is , is that hair cut a v-shape cut?
Dude, your hair rocks. We have identical hair, literally, from colour/ thickness down to length. Unfortunately it’s not layered the way I want it to so if it’s okay with you I’ll be saving pics of your hair to take to my stylist the next time I get my hair did
Quick question- do you know of anyone else I can google to look for similar styles, especially with hair this long? Typing in “long layers” and variations of that just shows me hair that’s barely halfway down the back.
Love the tutorials and everything. Good job!
YAYY HAIR TWIN!! You can save my pics no problem!! I don’t mind!
Honestly, googling doesn’t help at all because it gives so many different random styles.. U want to google any celebrity that you can think of that has long hair and try and make sure that that celebrity has the same face shape as you so you’ll know how the hair will look 
I know what you mean .. i can never find any pictures of anyone with super long hair like mine either
Hope that helps!!
xo
hey farah
god bless
nice video as always.u knw wat i really like ua tutorials bt i hav a problm dat i dnt wana cut ma hair evn i cnt plz tel me is it necesary to cut hair for grow new hair? if yes den after hw many days i shud get trim ma hair????????????????and ya 1 mor query is dea wenevr i get trim ma hair they get thin from ends tel me d solution hw to get heavy hair as wel .waitng for valuable reply
Hey hun! thank you so mucH! You should be cutting your hair regularly like maybe every 1-2 months so that you can get the dead/split ends off. If you don’t cut your hair, then the split end will go up the hair shaft and make your hair look like its damaged.. so try to get it trimmed even half an inch every 1-2 months.. if your ends get thin then maybe your hair dresser is using a razor to cut your hair or is point cutting your hair.. she needs to use regular scissors. Hope that helps! xo
Hey Farah

Hi Farah!I have discovered your You Tube channel and your site and I must say I wanna subscribe!!You’re so sweet when you speak and your tutorials are so easy I love them and I love you you’re really beautiful and cute…So this video is really helpful and I love your haircut!!!I really want the same….but you must help me I hate the hairdressers lollll they always make disaster on my hair so I decided to take care of my hair myself and I love all natural stuffs just like you!
So my hair is very long just the same lenght as you but is curly and voluminous…(I’m arabic from Algeria)and I don’t have any hair cut in it…I want to make your hair cut in my hair….Do you think it will works on curly hair??maybe should I make more longer bangs so they will don’t look like “puffy”?
And if I want to do this hair cut how should I begin?I mean: I must cut the bangs first or the layers first?
Can you help me please and give some advice?i I know that your hair cut will suit me because I have same features but I have a clearer complexion…Soory for all my questions and Sorry if my english is not perfect lol….thank you!
Hi Farah… i just love you..thanks for posting such wonderful helpful videos…please post your updated hair care routine like how to manage to keep ur hair so thick and shiny mine is lot dry and frizzy:( thanks again
Can u show ur hair from the back pweeez. Btw love ur hair tutorial
Hi Farah,
Thanks for your video, what brand is your texturizing shears? And the length?
Hi Farah, thanks for this great tutorial –For those of us who want/need side swept bangs instead of center part, would you recommend cutting the same way? Ie, can we just part our bangs after we finish cutting from following this tutorial? or should we not divide the hair in the middle at the beginning of your tutorial or when we are cutting bangs? Thx a bunch!
Hi Sweety
Regarding your hair cut video, How should I start my hair cut if I want it to look more like a U-shape instead of a V-shape? My hair is long and i want it to grow it out like yours. Secondly, what is the right way to shampoo and condition your hair yourself? If you can please share that it would be great. Another video i would like to see from you is how you shape your eyebrows by threading? OMG I will stop with my questions now. I am just so excited to see your videos as you are the only one who understands the South-Asian skin tone and hair and your advice work great! Eagerly waiting for your new video. XOXO
Hi… Farah!
OMG Let me tell you how much I adore you. I just love watching your hair do’s and donts. I am going to try eve thing you been talking about and I am going to do my first hair cut. Wish me well girl.. But I love your hair .. I used to have my hair that thick and long now its so thin and sad Like me :O( I hope your tips will make my hair grow and bring it back to normal.. Love ya!
Kallie
Your so pretty and Your videos are Amazing!!
Just wanted to ask you, what religion do you practice??
I’ve actually did this, and Farah thanks it made my hair look just like i wanted, and my mom tried it too and she said “Muchas Gracias” that’s in Spanish but in English it means ‘Thank-You”

If you could give a live tutorial On makeup and get a haircut it will be great . How much would u charge . My email I’d is catuu1@ yahoo.com . Have a great day thank you
maddy
hey Farah! Your are honestly soo damn gorgeous! Keep up the good work with your videos cause im always looking forward to watching them! Btw, I live in Scarborough and I want to know where can you get the matrix biolage shampoo that you use? Thank you so much for your time! Keep up the good work!
<333
Wow I barley started watching your videos and I love them ima start doing what you do to look so pretty !! Do you have a video of how to be skinny like you?
U have the bestest hair ever. Haircut is awesomely superb , super talented
I really don’t trust myself to cut my own hair. So, if I went to a hair salon, how would I ask them cut my hair so the ending result would look like your hair? I love the long length with the layers on top, but I can’t explain it to the hair dresser -_- what would you ask for when you go to the hair salon? (:
hi farah my name is faiqa and i am from pakistan i wnt your help that you plzzz tell me the full name of your shampoo and conditioner that you use your own plzzzz tell me i realy like your tutoriols on hairs plzz donea tutorial on hair about thier heathy so that my hairs become healthy in few days because my sister,s wedding is coming soon i hope you help me
hy farah……..how u doing…?….i <3 ur hair……its beautiful……………and the way u cut its really helpful……thnxx
your hair is amazing! the last time i went to the hairdresser she cut my hair from the length your hair is now to just below my shoulder when i asked for a trim, so i finally grew it all out and decided to put some layers into it! your video gave me the motivation! thankyou. xxx
Haii Farah,
I had my bangs the same as yours and i’ve tried to cut it on your way and it’s so easy to do and it became very beautifull!!! I also wanna try the same haircut with layers but my question was how many tands does your scissors have???
Would you pleaseeee reply?? I had previously asked something but u didn’t respond, would you pleaseeeeee respond this question?
XO <3
Hi Farah!
I adore your videos! And your hair is gorgeous!
I have one question for you and I hope that you can answer it. I like your haircut and I am considering it myself as I see that it gives a lot of volume which is exactly what my hair needs. But your hair is really thick, and mine isn’t, it’s just normal thickness. So would your haircut suit me and give the life and volume to my hair? XO
Assalamualaikum farha..
).. this video is awesomee..
ua reely reely talented.. i love watching ua videos..
Your hair cutting video’s are spectacular! THX Hair turned out SO lovely after following the one where you cut your sister’s hair into rounded layers. =D As I grow my hair and it gets longer I will be following this one. One question – I could not cut the fringe with side sliding with the scissors because I really do not know how to do this… This video incorporates a lot of the scissor sliding through the longer layers & I want to get the cut just right. People I’ve seen who have tried this on their own end up with holes or really funny looking hair, yours is PERFECT.
How do I accurately do the scissor sliding / blending thing?
Hi Farah!
I know in your video you say you can do this cut with dry or wet hair, but I have really curly hair. Would you say for curlies it is best to cut with dry hair that is already straightened to get better length check?
Love your videos thank you so much. Xoxo
Hi Farah,
thank you so much for sharing your hair cut video. i really love it .i’m glad that i have my hair layer now. i’m very happy. thank you , Farah again. i have dark hair color and i try so many many color to dye my hair become brown color. but could not find yet. and i saw your hair have brown color. you don’t mind to share to me that what color you are color your hair now, Farah. Thank you, Farah.
I love love love your hair….very similar to mine…im paranoid to cut it myself …. the girl who cuts it is leaving town and im lookig for someone new and my question is….do you cut ? would you cut? i live right across the border …. i have no problem driving to get this haircut….
Your video is amazing!
I’m currently growing my hair and its at that length that I can’t really get away with one length I followed your video and it turned out great (my hair is shoulder length) so I only cut off a little for the layers but still now it has a style and I followed your fringe tutorial and it looks amazing thank you!
Danielle xoxo
Hi, I’ve been going to a hairdressers now for ages and they never seem to get what it is I actually want, but this video has hit the nail on the head, its perfect
My daughters christening is in 2 days time and I really needed my hair cutting but my salon was booked up
so I tried this and its the BEST ever cut I’ve had so far
My aunty is a hairdresser and gave me a pair of her scissors as a gift awhile ago, so I mainly use them on my childrens hair, but from now on, I wont be going to a hairdressers again, as this cut is perfect, my hair looks great, the layers are just right and its quick and easy to keep up!
Thank you so much, you really dont know how much you have saved the day AND my hair xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I love the way your hair is cut but I would never do my own hair. My hair is about 4 inches shorter than yours I was wondering how I would explain to the stylist what I wanted?
