Out There with Ruth: How to Create the Illusion of Short Hair

This week Ruth Roche shares a trick on how to take long hair to short without cutting it.  It’s a great technique to use to show clients what they would look like with shorter hair, and it’s also a secret used on photo shoots when a model won’t cut their hair.

Hmm I'm trying to do a cosplay and I don't have much time. I have super super super super long hair and the character I'm trying to do has big bangs in the front from short on the sides and back. What do I do

[kool]

I dont have long hair but Can I do it with shoulder length hair?

[marvelstuffscool]

Thanks! I've always wanted to know what shorter hair looks like on me but I've grown my hair out my whole life and I don't want to cut it. Do you think this would work for my hair (it's down to my hips)?

[AngelHall-ixru]

I'm trans and no one is willing to cut my hair thank you so much😭😭😭😭 ahhh this is the best

[woermonastring]
