How to add volume in the crown without any visible layering

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend! Your guest is going to receive incredible value with this magical technique to bring out volume in the crown area without any visible layering!

Diamond sectioning along with the NEW Sam Villa InvisiBlend Shear will incorporate a decent amount of layering without losing the length – exactly what your guest is asking for – “I want layers but I don’t want to lose my length, can you achieve this for me?”

Diamond sectioning will enable the hair to tilt back away from the face to create layers in the crown area without going through and layering the entire cut.

As an educator I can tell you that your teaching technique is WONDERFUL!

I just watched this video yesterday, and did it to 2 clients today. Amazing results and it was a lot quicker service that all that sectioning through the hair. I dont have those texturizing shears but even without them the diamond shape section really helped me to get a shorter layers without any funkiness and loads of volume in the crown without all the fuss!! Great video!!! Thank you!!

Five years ago! Nice job Mr Villa.
It reminded me Omar Rivas, hair stylist, top instructor. Everybody cuts hair, but not everybody knows how to do it.

I love my hair long. The model with short hair, how you professionally made her hair look fuller and she looks younger. Wow! You are a master in this field.

Sam is a hair cut genius and he loves what he s doing thats probably his secret. And I always thought hair cutting talent is also talent for geometrics

I'm not a hair dresser and still watched this to the end!😀
The guy sounds sooo smart and you can tell he knows his business...Great video! 👍

[honeyowen]

Amazing! I've never seen a stylist who's an artist, I didn't even know it was possible. I'm not anything" hair but I can't stop watching. I think I'm addicted, amazing.

I cut my own hair since 2011 because any hairdresser haven't known how to do their job right and I was so tired of paying for something that I didn't like. Now, after ruining my hair so many times ( at least for free this time 🤣) I love when people tell me how great my hair looks . For this reason I'm really interested to become a hairdresser A GOOD ONE.😉

[BigEyesSmallMouth]

If I had a dime for every hairdresser who's told me "It won't LOOK like layers, " only to go home with "shelfy" hair and a see-through perimeter, I could retire to the Riviera. LOVE this video.

[meganzee]

I love that he actually has a camera above them both and can focus on the client/model's crown 💟💟💟

[marleneolson]

Wow, Sam....you are a great teacher. Even though I could never in a million years do this, it is fascinating to watch! You should teach ALL stylists your tricks. I have had so many bad cuts, bad perms, etc. And there’s no way to know beforehand if they’re good or not. So now I have resorted to wigs - so much easier. Thank you for this video.

I started cutting hair at the age of 12...never got a license but everyone LOVED their cuts. I can NOT find anyone who can even cut the bottom EVENLY! No matter what I've paid, it's NEVER right...so I go back to cutting my own and get MORE compliments...Imagine that. Thanks Sam for all the tips. I'm 70 and my passion IS still cutting hair and painting my home! Looking for my next "victim" to do your latest magic!

[hookermufin]

Sam, youre probably never going to see this but these tips have helped me so much! Started watching this channel before i started cosmetology school and they really helped me out. I got through the entire program will all A's, awesome reviews from my costumers and some are asking me to tell them what salon i end up in since i just officially got my license a few days ago. So excited to keep learing as i start my career. ✨❤✨ thanks a ton!

I Wish I had her hair. You're are a perfectionist. Great video, you really know what you're doing. I only had one good hair cut in my life. I was always pretty good at styling my own hair. I'm 78 now, when I was young and there was a special occasion I went to a beauty shop and always brought a scarf to the beauty shop in case I didn't like the style, and I never did. I have fine hair and now it got thin and it seems most stylists don't care or just don't know how to cut and style thinning hair. You're a genius.

[pearlmillwood]

Great instructor, I am retired hair dresser but enjoy watching your tutorials. It makes me wish I was able to start working again.😊

[mariavalente]

I thought Sam Villa was very helpful, informative, and thorough with his cutting technique. I have been a hairdresser for 45 years and I always enjoy watching someone else's way of doing things. You should never think you know it all, you might be surprised at what else you can learn.

[dianeevans]

wow, this man is really making cutting hair a true art! i learn so much watching his videos! i went to get my hair cut at Hair Plus where i usually go, but the woman didn't even section my hair for the cut i wanted, so of course i had to come back home and fix it. Stylists should go on youtube and watch these tutorials!

[davidcampbell]

I always learn when I watch Sam work his magic. Education to its highest level. Great job Sam!

[LHC-mxru]

Thank you so much Sam. I trained as a hairdresser way back in the seventies but didn't work as one as I got an offer of another totally unrelated job I couldn't refuse! I've since cut my families hair - but never my own. During lockdown I decided to give my long, layered hair a trim, but not having octopus arms or eyes in the back of my head I had to take the ends forward, and over extending didn't do anything for my back layers. Ended up flat as a pancake in back. I watched this and this morning just used the diamond to give myself a PERFECT layer. Volume volume volume!! I couldn't do the zig zag but it worked almost perfectly point cutting the ends for softness. Thank you. What a master teacher!
