my hair: DELETED SCENES
Added 2021-01-11 17:10:01 +0000 UTCUh oh, I thought I'd have just a few clips to post after this hair video, but it ended up being 8 minutes long.
I've decided to upload all behind-the-scenes/deleted scenes videos to Vimeo so I can pop a password over to my patrons instead of forcing you all to download multiple gigs worth of videos!

I'll say that this video gave me flashbacks to this ancient livestream from the beginning of my video-making days. It's been a while since I've cut my own hair or had a roommate cut it, and it's invigorating. Nothing like putting your hair in the hands of an untrained barber to really put things in perspective.
I also feel like the thumbnail I made for this video might be my best work to date:

The worm face. The very distraught version of me chilling in the shower. The light overlay of me with a bowl cut just hanging out in the background, like a guardian angel. It's so nice to be able to make terrible thumbnail choices again.
P.S. I sent a picture of my hairโfront and backโto my siblings immediately after filming this, and my brother responded with this image.

I have become coin slot dog.

Honestly this video alone was worth the subscription money for the whole month.

2021-01-17 13:36:25 +0000 UTCThat was hilarious when you said that you had to realize that you are a size small instead of a medium. I literally had the same realization a couple months ago and now I joke about it when ever I go shopping for clothes. hahaha

2021-01-14 05:07:18 +0000 UTCIt's in the description above the giant picture that says "my hair" and has the worm face.

2021-01-14 05:06:15 +0000 UTCWhat is the password to the video or how do I get it???
Jack Shellen
2021-01-14 03:31:23 +0000 UTCI liked Karen's help with the haircut, and the inclusion of her throughout the video, not just when the hair needed to be cut in the back :)

2021-01-13 00:46:30 +0000 UTCWatching this while doing my own hair stuffs was honestly the best decision I have ever made in my life. Thank you Brian. We aren't worthy of this brilliance.

2021-01-12 05:58:32 +0000 UTCi just impulsively cut my hair yesterday and my roommate had to fix it. i feel so seen by this video

2021-01-12 04:58:42 +0000 UTCI'm so glad to still be getting BDG content. I am also 26 and a creative idiot with a tendency to take things too far, so I feel like I'm watching my people (person?) succeed.

2021-01-12 01:30:36 +0000 UTCMy dear Korean mum forced a perm on me at the tender age of 10. I had a fringe and a bob and she permed it all. I looked like someone glued a pyramid made of pubes to my head. You know, just in case she thought I ever had a chance of making any friends at school.

2021-01-11 21:12:23 +0000 UTCoh wow this is extremely good to know. my secret plan to make a hair tutorial just to get actual hair advice is paying off

2021-01-11 21:05:17 +0000 UTCthis is extremely wholesome

2021-01-11 20:22:30 +0000 UTCI've had to cut my hair three times now (cutting my waste-length hair off in June 2020 was mmmmm questionable), and it is genuinely shocking how much you can get away with with if you do that specific hairstyle. Now to go buy a hairdryer and styling jell because I just... forgot those were things that existed...

2021-01-11 19:58:29 +0000 UTCAmazing and unexpected in all the right ways. Can't wait to see where your solo career takes you. Keep it up!
Jacob Bearce
2021-01-11 19:40:34 +0000 UTCcoming from a guy who has similar hair type/length (before the bowl cut) I will say I very much relate to how you spoke on how you have to DO something to your hair if you don't like it. I grew up hating how my hair never looked how I wanted it to without putting any effort into it. But I will say, having still not really invested a lot of time in managing my hair style, I think I've come to appreciate the way hair shapes the face naturally rather than the actual styling of the hair itself, you know? I have barely any idea what I'm talking about. Anyways, thanks for sharing!

2021-01-11 19:18:40 +0000 UTCwas literally just thinking about silicones!! for a good cheap silicone-free-but-has-sulfates shampoo, I like Garnier's Replenishing Shampoo with Olive Oil & Lead Extracts. if you wash twice a month (or once a week if need be), you can get all the silicone and hair styling product residue out without overly damaging your hair. sulfates aren't all bad!

2021-01-11 19:16:02 +0000 UTCso much appreciation for Karen everywhere!!!

2021-01-11 19:13:17 +0000 UTCBrian, I need you to know that at about 01:16 on the Vimeo outtakes vid, you look like a dead ringer for Andre Agassi circa 1987, and that's the best thing anyone can be at any given time ever.
Prius
2021-01-11 19:12:47 +0000 UTCDude these were my first thoughts exactly. Brian is such a wavy! I know that the point of this video is that the material is an illusion and Ursula could wreck us at ANY time, but if you ever wanna go balls to the wall, Brian, check out r/curlyhair on reddit. It is a wild ride, and one of the most well-kempt cults I've ever had the pleasure to be a part of.

2021-01-11 18:54:11 +0000 UTCWhile I agree that this should not be anyone's go-to video regarding haircuts, all your advice about products and hairdryers is spot on! A lot of cis straight guys don't do anything with their hair and then just keep buzzing or whatever because at least it doesn't look ~~bad that way, but all you need is a BIT of time and the right product and you can get great results! I'd also like to add directly AT Brian -- you should check your hair products for silicones as well! especially if your shampoo doesn't have sulfates. Because if your conditioner has silicones but your shampoo doesn't have sulfates then the shampoo won't be able to wash off the silicones and they will stick to your hair! So you should at least like twice a month wash it with a sulfate shampoo to get rid of silicone residue :D (curly girls where u at!!!)

2021-01-11 18:39:23 +0000 UTCabsolutely primo content. this is exactly what im happy to pay for. also please condition your hair more it makes it less oily over time and more healthy. 10/10

2021-01-11 18:37:02 +0000 UTCBrian's hair's naturally wavyness really was making that mullet WORK for him not gonna lie . I've recently cut both my mom's and brother's hair so i really sympathize with Karen's emotional journey here.

2021-01-11 17:47:39 +0000 UTCwhoops I left the old link from a test upload in there! The vimeo link should work, but I've just updated the link to the YouTube hair video.

2021-01-11 17:39:42 +0000 UTCI know this video is about Brian's hair but can I just say that Karen's camera work and comedic timing is just *chef's kiss*

2021-01-11 17:30:04 +0000 UTCguys, there's a link to the vimeo at the top of the post where you watch the outtakes. That said!! I greatly appreciated this today! I got my surgical drains out and was feeling kinda uncomfortable and this definitely made me smile. you seem very happy, Brian!!

2021-01-11 17:25:02 +0000 UTCAlso having trouble with the privacy of video link thing. May just have to have it as unlisted? Or make it another Vimeo upload with password?

2021-01-11 17:22:32 +0000 UTCYoutube link comes back as private. Maybe you need to have it private but available with link?
