Yesterday, I had a day at the hairdresser's. Not exactly for me, but for my daughter.
On Saturday night she told me she wanted to get a haircut to start school. She doesn't like going to the stylist (that's something we share 🤭) so I was up for the challenge. I have worn my hair short since I was very young and I am my own hairdresser.
I didn't instill that behavior in my daughter, in fact I wore it when she was younger, until when she was 11 she told me she didn't want to go anymore because it was too uncomfortable for her to sit still in a chair for so long. Since then her haircuts (and even other little stylistic adventures 😜) have been done by me.
I have no training as a hairdresser, but after cutting so much fabric, paper and cardboard I get the idea that hair is another material and without fear I venture to see what comes out. At the request of the client the cut this time would be straight, short and with fringe.

Hola!! Ayer tuve un día de peluquería. No precisamente para mí, si no para mi hija.
En la noche del sábado me dijo que quería hacerse un corte de cabello para empezar la escuela. A ella no le gusta ir al estilista (en eso se parece a mí 🤭) por lo que me tocaba ese reto. Desde muy joven llevo el pelo corto y soy mi propia peluquera.
A mi hija no le inculqué ese comportamiento, de hecho la llevaba cuando era más pequeña, hasta que con 11 años me dijo que no quería ir más porque le era muy incómodo estar inmóvil en un sillón por tanto tiempo. Desde entonces, sus cortes de cabellos (y otras aventurillas estilísticas 😜) se los hago yo.
No tengo ninguna formación en ese oficio, pero después de cortar tanta tela, papel y cartón me hago la idea de que el pelo es otro material y sin miedo me aventuro a ver que sale. A petición de la clienta 🤭 el corte esta vez sería recto, corto y con flequillo.
Cutting straight hair without proper scissors is not the best idea, but with a little patience it all comes together. To make the task easier I initially cut a long section of the hair to start perfecting from there.
Cortar pelo lacio y sin tijeras apropiadas no es la mejor idea, pero con un poco de paciencia todo se logra. Para facilitar la tarea, inicialmente corté un tramo largo del pelo y desde ahí comenzar a perfeccionar.
I separated the hair into sections with the illusion that it would be easier. Looking for information I found that in this type of haircut the layers of hair must be cut in an increasing way from the inner to the outermost. It wasn't easy at all, I spent a long time trying to make it look as good as possible.
Separé el cabello en secciones con la ilusión de que me sería más fácil. Buscando información encontré que en este tipo de corte las capas de cabello se deben ir cortando de forma creciente desde la interior hasta la más externa. No fue nada fácil, estuve mucho rato tratando de que me quedara lo mejor posible.
After the straight cut was finished, I had to do the fringe, I sectioned the hair into a triangle shape at the front of the head starting at the midline. I took the hair between my fingers and twisted to cut it straight between the eyebrows. She wanted it just above the eyebrows.
Después de culminado el corte recto, me quedaba el flequillo. Seccioné el cabello en forma de triángulo en la parte anterior de la cabeza partiendo de la línea media. Tomé el pelo entre los dedos y torcí para cortar en forma recta a la altura del entrecejo. Ella lo quería justo sobre las cejas.
Finally the hair was washed and styled.
Finalmente el cabello fue lavado y peinado.
I was satisfied and my daughter was very happy. After all, my hairdresser's day didn't end so badly 😜, what do you think?
Quedé satisfecha y mi hija muy contenta. Después de todo, mi día de peluquera no terminó tan mal 😜, que crees tú?

I think you did a remarkable job as an amateur. That's a big change in hairstyle cutting so much off, new look for the new school year!
Thanks 🥰 Luckily she is happy, but every time I look at her I want to rectify something 🤭.
Nuevo look super renovado y le quedó super bien!!!😃
Gracias 🥰. Afortunadamente ella no es muy exigente jiji 🤗
Es hermosa!💗
Gracias 🥰
Your hairdresser's day sure didn't end badly. For someone who didn't learn hairdressing professionally, you did an amazing job. Good job!!
Ohh, thank you for that compliment, I blushed 🤭
Ohh... Are you a hairdresser too?! Another skill unlocked in Hive. I hope you'll accept HBD. 😄
¡Quedó genial!
Por ahora es gratis...así que aprovecha!!!! 🤣
The result is awesome! My grandmother used to cut my hair when I was small ( like much more smaller than your daughter) but she was a hairdresser by her profession. Your work here also looks like done by a professional. Oh, I think you became it and this is the proof :D
Professional? I don't think so 🤣. I've been cutting my hair for a long time, but no matter how it looks, it always grows back 😆. I've cut Olivia's hair several times and I've even dyed it in fancy colors, but this cut is particularly difficult to do. It really didn't look that bad and I think I may have a future as a hairdresser 😜😂. A hair salon is a good business, guaranteed clientele!!!! Well....as long as they are not like us 🤣
You are a good mom - and a good future hairdresser ;D
Oh amiga, te quedó espectacular!🤩 Mira que no es fácil, la niña tiene un cabello abundante y lograr que el corte te quedara parejo es muy difícil, así que a partir de ahora la niña tiene su mami peluquera. Te ahorraste bastante 🤭. Tú eres talentosa con tus manos, te puedes dedicar también a la peluquería 🤣
Hola Mayra!! Sii el cabello de oli es abundante y lacio. Las tijeras (poco apropiadas) se rehusaban a cortar jiji, tuve que ir mechón a mechón prácticamente. Bastante bien quedó la verdad 🤭. Lo que me ahorre ni sé, porque desconozco esas tarifas, pero imagino algo de 4 cifras!!! Un abrazo y linda noche.
Asi es amiga! Linda noche 💐🤗
