Hey guys, so today I'm going to show you guys how I trim my hair at home. I do this when I get excessive shedding and when my hair is just really strenght at the ends and this really helps my curls pop and come back to life. So let's just hop right into this. So this is my hair freshly washed. I'm just going to section it off into two sections and then we're going to work with smaller sections. And I'm not trimming off a lot at all. So the sections do not have to be perfect or anything like that. You know, we're just trimming off a little bit. So this is the section that I'm going to be working with. So I'm just going to create smaller sections, maybe like medium sized sections and work with that. All right. So the first thing I'm going to do is make sure that my hair is nice and detangled. And you guys are going to see exactly what I'm talking about when it comes to my ends. You see that little stripe right there? Yeah. All of that. I don't like that stuff. It just looks really thin and it just needs to go. So I'm going to spritz my hair with some water. And then I'm going to apply some conditioner just so I can see how my curls are looking. And this is obviously the perfect time to deep condition as well. So you can kill two birds with one stone. But I'm just using conditioner. So I'm just going to take my shears. You want to make sure that you have some nice sharp shears, sharp scissors, whatever. And I'm going to take those stringy ends as you can see and I'm going to chop it off. And as you can see, it's not a lot at all. So it's all good. And then I'm going to twist my hair all the way down. And again, you'll see where you need to cut. So how I know that I need to trim my hair is when I twist it and I see that it doesn't really curl up or that I see that it's thin. So as you can see that right there is kind of thin. It's not really curling up and it doesn't really stay when I twist my hair. So I am going to trim all of that off. Now you can see that my twist is nice and full and it's curly all the way down. So it is going to give you that fuller appearance. And that's what I like because it looks really healthy. So I'm going to show you guys again. I'm just going to take a nice medium-sized section. I'm going to spurs my hair with some water. Apply some conditioner to help my curls pop and to make it as easier to work with. Of course, I'm going to detangle. And then I'm going to examine my ends and to see all those thin hairs that definitely need to go. I just hate that stuff so much and I'm just going to chop it off. And this is not for people who are scared or you know are scissors happy. You gotta be diligent when you do this. And I am no expert in trimming or I'm not a hair stylist or anything but this is what works for me. So yeah. So again, I'm going to twist my hair all the way down. Take a look at my ends and this is exactly what I'm talking about. And where you want to cut it is where the hair starts to curl so you don't disturb the curl pattern so that's what I'm doing right here. And as you can see, I'm left with a nice juicy twist. So this is what one side looks like once it's all twisted and trimmed and I'm going to move on to the next side again just examining my ends and pulling out all the shitted hair. So now I'm just taking a medium-sized section spursing my hair with some water. I'm applying my conditioner and detangling. This is exactly the excessive shedding that I'm talking about. Every single time I comb my hair even after I you know detangle in the shower, I need to get rid of this. I'm going to trim all of that off. And then I'm going to twist it all the way down and detangle if need be. And as you can see here, there's not much to cut off. Just a slight thin end right there so I'm just going to cut that little part off and that's it. So what my hair looks like once I'm done trimming and twisting everything up. And as you can see towards the end, they're more juicy and full, which is what I like. And this really helps me to stop excessive shedding and it helps my curls to pop more towards the end when I'm doing curly hair styles. And as you can see, there's not a lot trimmed off at all. I don't usually do a big trim unless I go to a hair stylist or unless it's a straight hair routine, which I will be doing very soon. So yeah, if you guys are suffering from shrekly ends and excessive shedding, it might be time for a trim. So I hope you guys enjoyed this video and I will see you guys all in the next one.
