cutting hair

I agree with oly on the slide technique, I find using a razor sometimes makes the extension hair kinda ratty and the ends split a lot quicker.

What I usually do is point cut the length and then with the layers hold them out at a 45degree angle and then twist the hair and then with really sharp scissors gently slide down the twist with a slow gentle chewing motion, so you do not rip the hair. Also while chewing down the twist do not close the scissors all the way just use a quick gentle open, close, open, close, but not closing all the way. This way the hair looks layered but not too choppy. I like this teqnique better than razoring bacause you are not ripping through the hair, just gently chewing.

It is good to practice on a manequin or just some random hair you have laying around before you actually try this.

Hope this could help.

Oh yeah, forgot to add sometimes I like to cut into the ends with thinning shears as well, if it still looks too choppy.

To avoid the blut, choppy look, always cut hair extensions with a sharp hair cutting razor.

Using this tool takes a little getting used to, but it's the only way to go for extensions. I never use scissors when cutting in extensions.

Good luck!

Ok, I need to know how to cut these long curly extensions that I have added. I have read a few posts somewhere, but cannot find them anywhere.
Any suggestions? I want to wear it, loose, but, I do not like the same lenght all over, it would be nice if they framed my face. I have tried cutting at a angle, but it still looks too choppy, and then what do you do with the back?
Thanks

I have tried finding a pic, but of course, I did not find anything.
