She is great, watching her for years . Finally became friends with my blonde hair . Colouring it myself, and managed to grow it beautifully . Thank you so much, greetings from Germany 😘

Incredibly helpful! Not only skilled and passionate, but an amazing teacher. I'm so grateful for this because it's like a real class, not just entertainment. Before this, I watched lots of other videos and was about to make almost all the mistakes she warned of.

Sylvia, you are the OG of at home hair techniques :)
I’ve been following you from the beginning and I have done my hair at home ever since ☺️
So thankful for you ❤

I love how you’ve redesigned your videos! A lot of other peoples tutorials just ramble on for 10 minutes and not one time have spoken about what the video is supposed to be showing! So thank you for getting right to the point. You also explain details very well and easy to understand! Pros and watching their videos makes it look so easy because they aren’t explaining the small details that are essential, so then when we try what we’ve watch (thinking it’s easy) that’s when it doesn’t turn out anything like we thought..so again thank you in the little details! Last but definitely not least…thank you for no music playing while you’re talking! I’ve followed you from the very beginning of your YouTube journey many many many years ago and you are a strength and inspiration to so many (including myself)! Not just because you’re a hairdresser, but because your honest, a wonderful mother and you have grown from your hardships and seem even more humble and empathetic! Thank you for the time you put into these videos regardless if you make money off of them…you make us feel like you truly want to help us and not just monopolize off of likes and views (make that money girl tho 😉) ❤

I’ve learned SO much from her. From COVID on. In fact, my very first highlight job I did on myself- I didn’t tell my highly experienced amazing stylist that I did it- and I said can you fix what I had done- she said, ” oh I actually think it looks pretty good!! Maybe just a few lowlights will even it out.” Then I told her 😂 she said, ” wow I think you’ve missed another career option here!!”

Thanks Sylvia. Your videos are awesome. Wish there were more weekly.

[sabinekreuz]

Thank you so much for all that explanations.😊 There was defentively some stuff I did not know at all. Especially your last part.. But I hoped you would show us the utilization of that highlightning comb. Greetings from Germany (Bonn, here Beethoven was born 😁)

[tinkaanddiamonds]

You’ve taught me so much over the years about how to do my own hair. I think it would be interesting on how to balayage a bob like you have now.

[Royal.Gypsys]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏
I would've loved to see the results of the different techniques 😊

[MoonstoneRose]

You are amazing as always Sylvia! I continue to learn so much from you 😍

[thatsehricalashea]

Your channel is such a refresher course! Thank you

[brandonredmond]

I have a cowlick in the front of my hair line. It’s always been difficult to highlight! You explained foil placement wonderfully!!! I will be trying it today (possibly). Thank you for all your hard work and time!

[suzanmiller]

I would love to see a video about how to foil your own hair.

[heidi]

Dang.. that model is beautiful. Lol.
I can't survive without you. ❤

[denisemc]

So interesting ❤ love the detailed reasoning and explanation. I find it hard to get my 20 something stylist to listen to your wisdom! May need to move on…. 😢
