2 Year Old Curly Hair
Curly Boy Haircut Tutorial
Sharing buttons:
around the time Spurgeon turned one his
hair had gotten quite curly and we
didn't cut his hair until he was about
18 months old for the first time and
even then it was just a slight trim it
wasn't chopping off the girls entirely
and then from there we just continued to
just cut shape kind of take it up around
his ears and we would trim it and that
was about it we really didn't give him a
real haircut until he was probably two
and a half now he gets a haircut
probably every two to three months and
I'm going to show you how I cut his hair
and what that looks like this is just a
basic I bought this from Amazon for just
a few bucks this is like Ben's beard
trimmer it's nice for like trimming at
the hairline on the back of the neck and
like going around the ears and this is
also Waldron all right this is a five
guard your head just like that
- going up slightly at college and kind
of fading out here is it tickle
[Music]
pickles
[Music]
Kerli here you'll often have to take it
a few different direction to cut two
inches up
[Music]
all the directions if these curls grow
[Applause]
so keep your head down I took the
Clippers and I went this way up the
hairline then I went this way about two
inches just just about as wide as the
Clipper raised up and I gave they did
over the ear keep up with the tub I did
it over the ear I held the Clipper a
little bit out and I went over the ear
that way and up that way just barely did
the same thing when tall you're on the
other side of the head that's what I've
done Spurgeon over the ears with the
five guard and about two inches along
the back of the head here Spurgeon's
here I want to keep more volume on top
because I want to show those curls I
want to get too short
also I want to keep bangs down on the
front and I always want to trim this
longer than expected because when the
curls dry they'll be shorter and I don't
want to have like a hairline I live here
what this down a hair spur gee you got a
lot of hair it really fast
all right now turn around and stick your
legs through the chair there you go good
job pretend like you're driving a rocket
or workship and find riding a rocket
that can go to the moon okay now I'm
gonna take this here and try to find
that here line at the base where I faded
it take it all the way down
and on spurgeon so on Henry I held my
hand about maybe two inches out from the
head on Spurgeon I'm gonna go more like
three at the top because I want to keep
a little more length and leave a little
more room for his hair to curl up there
so take section each of these sections
are probably gonna be about an inch and
a half wide or so I get all the way down
to that fade line
I'm gonna take the next section over
just still sweaty okay go as fast as I
can
let's back home to the table
come to the side over here
continue doing that just taking the hair
not straight train my hand out seems to
give extra length for those curls
i wetted his hair down all over I come
straight down and I took the come like
this took a section about two inches
wide and I went all the way down to that
clipper length which was I think it must
have been a five guard or something and
then I held it out from the head a
pretty good angle take it on the side
here pretty good angle out from the head
so it would stay longer because with
curly hair it's gonna curl up and it's
kind of look shorter than it actually is
the nice thing about curly hair is it
also hides imperfections so don't worry
about that too much take it out from the
head probably about this angle let's see
it's pretty far out from the head you
can always take off more afterwards but
you can't go back on and then I just
kept that angle out away from the head
here at the top that's probably about 4
inches from the head so normally with
the haircut I would keep my hand kind of
parallel to the head and then taper out
just slightly at the top but with the
curly hair you want it to maintain the
curl at the top here you want this to be
clean and you want to be able to trim
here and you don't want to trim the
sideburns too short but about there you
want to be able to see a line here but
you don't want to lose this wave and
curl up here alright now I'm gonna take
the hair on top and the way I trim this
is again I want it to be about three
inches at the back probably about four
inches at the front so considerably
longer in the front it's gonna look like
this
four or five inches at the front maybe
two or three inches at the back
if you're new to cutting hair then it
will take a little bit of trial in here
to get it just right that's the nice
thing about cutting kid hairs
they're super young there's a little
more mistakes if you mess up a little
one curly hair it's probably not really
gonna show so that's my nice thing good
tipping my hand upward keeping a little
more length as we get towards the front
right now as Harry's about down to his
mouth so it's pretty well on the front
but he also has pretty curly hair in the
front so if I were to cut it off to here
and it's curl I could look like he has
short little bangs so we don't want to
do that you can always go back and take
more off but you can't glue the hair
back on so it's fine
I always start by taking less off then
kind of let it dry a little bit see how
that's looking and then take off a
little bit more than needed so here's
for the front I take this hair and I
don't cut it up here I pull it back so
I'm sure to get extra length left on
there cuz I know it's gonna dry into a
tighter curl so I pull this back
all right so I can see kind of how it's
shaping up there that's really about it
and then on top I left it about probably
three inches at the back four inches at
the back maybe and about five inches at
the front because the main the most
important part of the haircut is that
you want this to follow even though it's
taper to the edge you want this to
follow right above the brow what when
it's curled not straight so it would be
up here and he would have these short
he'd have these short bangs that would
look really odd with this curly hair you
want if you're gonna keep that boy band
curly look tapered at the sides going
out and then keep the front long so I
take the angle at the top of the head
and the hair looks like this I cut three
inches or 4 inches or something and then
I go up as I pull this hair up along
here I I take the hair and it gets
longer and longer and longer up to the
front of the head so at the front of the
head well no only when I cut this hair
up here as I take it and I pull it back
so that way it's sure to be a lot longer
on the front that is on the back and
then yeah from there if it still looks a
bit long in any place
just slowly trim away like you know
quarter of an inch inch and a half inch
at a time until you get the shape that
you want so now the last thing I'm gonna
do is just like on Henry's we're almost
done you're gonna get in the tub and
then it'll wash away all the little
hairs okay so pull that hair over the
ear
[Music]
going all Qaeda or word
just I mean arre wet the hair a little
bit so just kind of clean up the
hairline dip your head down
keep it to the natural hairline as much
as possible
so this ear here then just gonna be done
brushing that hair over
and we done yet
[Music]
this is a long time okay I just want to
kind of scrunch that up and see how it's
drying so
