Hair Fix: Back Part

[wyattwolfe]

So update. Been doing this technique and its working AMAZINGLY, to the point where my part is actually starting to NATURALLY go away because it's training my hair not to split. 100% recommend.

You have NO idea how long I have been searching for a fix for this back part. Mine happens naturally and I could never find anything that fixed it. I cannot wait to try this. I get so frustrated I end up putting my hair in a pony tail or bun because I am so self conscious of that stupid part! Thank you Kate!!

Randomly just found this video - this 9 year old video - and now an insecurity I’ve had since high school is gone! What?? How did I never look up how to do this before? I’m 34 and I finally am learning how to style my hair properly 😂🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ seriously kicking myself for not looking this up sooner - but thank you for making this video and for keeping it up for 9 years!

I’m so glad to find this. I used to never have this problem but now it’s so severe the back of my head looks bald and I’ve had so much anxiety over it. I can comb it to cover the part but it just falls right back and you see a big white scalp part.

By far the best video that I have found ! You don’t waste anytime, just straight to let us know how to get rid of that part. I hate mine. I have searched and searched videos and this is the best out there! Thanks so much and I will be trying it

Wish I had known this 20 years ago; I've been fighting and losing the back part battle for most of my life! Thank you so much for posting!!

This was a very helpful video, and based on now understanding the root problem of back parts and cowlicks in general, that the hair is leaning in the opposite direction we want it to, I experimented with training my hair to lean the way I want when I sleep. At night, I find the back part cowlick and put it into the split it is comfortable in. Then I take the right half and pull it left, and the left half and pull it right, and create two pig tails that literally tightly pull the hair in the direction I want it to go. The next morning I did not have a problem with the cowlick split or back part. I think if I keep doing this each night, it will be like braces or retainers on the teeth, it will keep it trained to fall right. I could "make it" go back into the split again, but it was much easier to get it to cooperate. To keep it in its new corrected position, I added some Aveda dry shampoo powder and really rubbed that in and then ran my brush left and right across the split for a bit of a back combing effect, and then gave it a spritz with hair spray. Finally I feel confident that my hair is not going to revert back into a back split again during the day!

BLESS YOU!! Oh my god...every single day I have to repeatedly grab my mirror to check the back of my head and see if I look "bald", due to my 3 cowlicks and baby fine hair. This is the very first time I have EVER seen a solution for this problem, and I thank you, thank you, thank you!! <3

THIS. IS. AMAZING. I have this problem every morning when I wake up and it seriousy makes me want to cry. I'll definitely be trying this!

omg omg YOU....finally....I can fix my dreaded back part. I just tried it and it worked. Im so thankful. Hope you see this (after 9 years). I had tried using flat iron before but now realising that I was holding it horizontally instead of all the difference.

OMG! This is brilliant! I am a recently graduated cosmo student and not even my instructors could give me advice on how to fix this issue... wow! Thanks for sharing! You rock!!!

[cecibee]

Kate, this is the most helpful video in the history of YouTube for me. Wow.

33yr old male growing his hair long for the first time... I appreciate you and this video so much!

[nimasoanTHEnd]

I have been navigating through YouTube for a couple of weeks searching a fix for that had teased my hair but differently....THANK YOU THANK YOU AND THANK YOU.

I never had a back part until about 5 years ago and I've been wanting to grow my hair long but it makes the part more pronounced. So I've kept it in a pixie cut cause it doesn't show up when my hair is super short. I cannot wait to try this. Thank you so much. If this works I will forever worship you as the cowlick goddess lol.

[maimeemay]

I can't thank you enough!  I have a cowlick right at the crown and it always splits in the center making it look as though my hair is thinning.  I was about to get a perm and layers so that it would it disguise the part!  I'm so happy I found your channel today. Thank You!

[jenfehr]

Love this tip! My sister and I were just talking about this the other day! My three sisters and I all have this back part and it's stubborn, and I never new how to deal with it. I can't wait to try this, thank you!

[ALadyJett]

i love watching and trying your and others hair tutorials a lot, but this is by far the most beneficial tutorial for me to date. Thank you much. It looks as if you spent along time redoing the whole head of hair instead of just one part.

[litebriteeyes]

Ha! I've never heard anyone mention this deeply distressing issue, LOL. Love your videos, thank you for this one!

[sheilabartolo]

I love you omg you just fixed the one thing I hate about my hair thank you so much
