00:00I haven't done anything really dramatic with cuts because I'm a little scared.
00:04I hope this long lob is like a good medium of like not too crazy of a
00:10difference. Hello my name is Ken Kim. I'm getting a long lob today. I want to get a
00:15long lob today because I've been wanting to get this haircut for a while and I
00:19was trying to get it when I was in Korea but I wasn't able to. I just didn't have
00:23the courage because the style wasn't really in and so I've been waiting to
00:29get it when I come back to the States so here I am. I hope the stylist tells me
00:34before I cut my hair that I'm gonna look super cute. My name is Michael Sparks.
00:42I'm a hairstylist specializing in cutting working out of Cabin Sparks in Santa
00:47Monica. So I kind of want to keep it a little bit longer but I do want to
00:50change your look. Cool. I think kind of like a lob something that's not a bob but
00:54something a little longer. Cool. We could look hot. All right. As long as I'm hot.
00:58You'll be at it. Okay cool. So first thing first is I'm gonna drape
01:03Cayenne. Then I'm gonna wet her hair completely wet it.
01:09I'm just so excited. I haven't been this excited since quarantine started.
01:14Especially about my looks like there hasn't been a big change so this is
01:17definitely like refreshing. I'm gonna section out the back of the hair first.
01:23Go up section by section. Cut completely down. Use scissors, clippers, razor. I don't want to
01:30build any unnecessary layers.
01:35This is the first time I cut my hair shorter in the last five, seven years. I had my
01:43short really short when I was in college. Oh my god that means I was in college five or seven
01:49years ago.
01:50Should I put that on camera? I love changing my hair a lot. I've done a lot of hair coloring
01:54because
01:54I'm an actor. On my last show American Gods season two I was doing a lot of fun hair color
02:00like pink,
02:01blue, purple, everything. So normally I just do my hair depending on what kind of character I'm playing
02:06but since we're in quarantine and nothing is really going on I wanted a big change that I want it
02:11for
02:12myself and this is just perfect. Once I'm done with the perimeter I will blow dry it the way that
02:19I blow dry I like to especially with this kind of a haircut I blow dry straight down. No body
02:24less
02:24body is better for this. I can add that at the end. Hair means everything to me and that's the
02:32word of
02:32Phoebe Waller-Bridge from Fleabag. She has this amazing monologue when she goes into the salon with her sister
02:38because her sister's hair looks all weird. It is so true because as an actor I think even before an
02:43audition you really do have to put a lot of time in with hair. I do think it changes like
02:49the whole
02:49image of how you look. Then I'll add textures into it start tweaking out little corners and playing
02:56taking weight out of certain spots and then curling irons back into the hair.
03:03My specialty is to make people look hot. It's simple, easy, chic, modern with a little edge. It's changing lives.
03:14Hey, so we are all done. Check it out.
03:37I love my hair. It's very cute and sexy and hot.
03:46I think my hair looks a lot thicker and healthier. The ends were really dry,
03:51so that being all cut off it feels amazing.
03:56This hairstyle makes me more like a woman. It does give me like a little bit of a confidence.
04:03He's given me my favorite haircut ever.
