How to trim your natural hair at home.
If you haven’t done it, you’ve at least thought about how to trim natural hair at home. I’m sure you know this is a job for your stylist, but when the salon is closed and you’re looking in the mirror like, “who dis?!,” drastic measures must be taken. In this case, that means pretending shears are your specialty and hoping you don’t cut too much or end up with a lopsided ‘do.
STEP 1: Identify Split Ends You’ll know it’s time to nix split ends when your hair is generally unruly, even as it’s styled to precision. “The shape is no longer crisp or sharp when the hair is styled smooth and/or straight,” says Groover. “The split ends create knots for curls and coils on the ends. And as a result, the hair will often break on the ends resulting in length stagnation.”
For curly hair: “Section the hair into 6-8 sections and twist or braid each section. Smooth the hair into a straighter form with a blow dryer or air drying, then brush for a more even texture. This helps the form to be more even for better precision. Twist each section. Hold the twist at zero degrees, close to the shoulder area, and snip the less dense strands.”
