1. Look for inspiration for the desired cut
It is essential that you study hard about the new look before adopting the new one. For that, here are some fundamental questions you should ask yourself:
- Will this new look contemplate the new phase of my life?
- Am I looking for practicality, modernity or something more classic?

- Besides a good sharp scissors, what other tools do I need to get the cut I want? Scraping machine?
- Will I need help? Can I count on someone who lives with me for some touch-up or difficult area?
2. If you’ve never cut your hair yourself, it’s better not to radicalize at first
This tip is important, consider it with care.
We know that the desire to change, when it hits, is great. But it’s super important that you go with caution. Especially if it’s the first time you’ve ventured into do-it-yourself hair care.
Cut it little by little, to get the hang of it. The result will be better if everything is done calmly.
Oh, and to help even more, we went looking for apps that help you choose a cut more accurately. Damage reduction who calls? (Laughter). Just kidding, everything will be fine!
Trust and follow here in the list of tips.
3. Never cut wet hair and cut in stages
Especially if your hair is curly or frizzy, the shrinkage factor after drying has to be considered.
Never cut wet strands. Leave them dry when cutting at home, to avoid the risk of cutting too much.
This tip is super important, because even though it’s easier to cut wet hair, the result will be closer to what you’re looking for if you cut it dry.
4. How to split hair
Separate hair well into at least 4 portions: right and left sides, front and bottom. This will give more precision in the cut.
For curly and frizzy ones, another important tip: cut the strands after doing the texturing that you like best.
5. Don’t be afraid of scissors
For fear of the new, we are always a little afraid of scissors, right? But above all, always keep in mind that hair grows!
Try to think with practicality and vision of the future. The threads will keep coming 🙂 By the way, did you know that they grow, on average, from 1 cm to 1.5 cm per month?
So, if you happen to not enjoy the cut as much, be at peace: it’s temporary.
6. Study well the space where you are going to make the cut and make this a self-care ritual
A mirror, of course, is essential. If you can get another mirror to match the cut in the back, so much the better.
Pick a special day to make the makeover. And select a playlist to relax and get inspired – MPB or Pop queens are a great choice, eh?
If you enjoy smells, aromatize the environment with incense or essential oils. And prefer a day when you are calmer, without much commitment to work and home.
