If you're tired of paying that damn hairdresser...
&Secret Exposed:
Start Cutting Hair Like a Real Pro, Even if You've Never Held a Pair of Scissors Before&
Stop Paying Stupid Amounts of Money to Get Your Hair Cut! Start Cutting Your
Friends, Families and Even Your Own Hair By Yourself!
Read my story, it's
one we can all relate to:
Dear soon-to-be a professional haircutter,
My name is
Julia Dean and I've been cutting my own hair and the hair of my family members for over 4 years now. If I was to count the money I've saved from not having to go to the hairdresser's I would probably be looking at thousands by now.
Nowadays, I have a part time business cutting the hair of my friends, and neighbours. They all started asking me where I got my hair cut - and I just told them I did it myself... and things kind of took off from there.
[Now it's your turn]
It wasn't always like this though. Several years ago I was a struggling stay-at-home mom having to take care of 2 beautiful children. My husband's income hardly covered the bills.... well I don't want to drag you into the whole story here, but to make a long story short:
We DEFINITELY couldn't afford to go to the hair salon,
in fact we couldn't afford much at all
Our Hair started getting longer... on all of us. Someone had to
cut it, with the way that the economy was and with our bills mounting
the hair dressers was at the back of our minds (and further away from
our pockets).
One day, I was talking to one of my old friends about our
troubles, and she told me I should go and see a
62-year-old friend of hers
who cuts hair (Mary). She told me of Mary's almost *magic* abilities to
cut people's hair. The reason she told me about her was that she had some serious issue against professional hairdressers - so she always cut hair for free.
Great! I thought - I got Mary's phone number from my friend and called her and managed to book an appointment the next week.
Fast forward one week... when I went to see Mary, the first thing I noticed was her amazing haircut. I silently said &Wow!& to myself...
We spoke for a few minutes... and when I asked if she could cut my own and my kids' hair -
she flatly refused!
I was really upset and couldn't understand why she would be
this way with me... I was broke, had no knowledge of how to cut hair,
but for placing a bowl on the top of our heads and cutting around it. As
my sadness quickly turned to anger..
&Let Me Teach You Instead&,
Just Laughed at Her
&ME?! Cut hair? I've hardly ever held a pair of scissors in my life!&
&So? Don't worry about it,& she said.
I was shocked. I really had nothing else to say so I just stood there with my mouth half open.
Well... the next couple of weeks were truly a journey.
She taught me everything... how to cut long hair, short hair, thick, fine, curly hair, straight hair, wavy hair and every other type of hair you could imagine,
in fact I spent almost all my free time cutting her clients hair.
What I learned over that period was nothing short of amazing.
And now, I'd like to share what I've learned with you.
you might be thinking that if you try cutting your own hair you would end up failing miserably.
But it's not true...
Can Change That For You
Are you tired of paying top dollar to the hairdresser for a mediocre haircut that looks just like everyone else's?
Are you sick of not being able to cut the hair yourself - and get it JUST the way you like it?
Now I know what you might be thinking...
&But Julia, I've tried cutting my own hair before - and I wouldn't show it to my blind grandmother!&
So... maybe you've tried to cut your own hair before - but it didn't work out the way you liked?
Don't worry, because that's why I'm writing you today.
Secrets Mary Taught Me I Refined and Now Offer To You!
After Mary had finished teaching me all the
basics of cutting hair she started to teach me how to combined the
basics in order to create stunning designs. But like I said, fist I
mastered the basics.
If you want to learn how to cut hair the right
way then you need to memorise this diagram, it is the foundation and
the starting point of my book. Knowledge really is power when it
comes to cutting hair.
Now I am not saying that I managed
to do it correctly in one try and this where I need to tell you one
precaution, you need to first practice on a dummy
model with a wig. I know
it might sound a bit silly, but even when I was being taught I only
practiced the cuts on real people after I had mastered the dolls.
How long will it take you to master
each cut? Well on my sample group of 110 people that I tested my
ebook on over 75% of them managed to do all the basic style cuts in
just 8 days to a level I considered mastery. My definition of
mastery is quick, efficient and looked great!
After you master basics as well you can then
proceed onto the more challenging styles as well as learn about the
range of different types of hair. From curly to Afro-Caribbean to
English straight down to thick, thin and fine hair.
Thought my book you will also learn about all
the tools of trade, what you need, what you don't, how to use each
one in every style and how each style differs from the other. Your
not simply buying a how to manual on cutting hair your buying the
haircutters knowledge guide. There really is not a stone unturned.
All I ask of you is that you trust in my guide,
dedicate yourself to following the steps and take the time you
understand what is written. There is no super fast track to
mastering hair, it will take a little bit of time, some dedication
and some trust in your own abilities.
you feel like the book was not adequate after giving it a try then
you can have your money back no questions asked. (Scroll down for
further information)

I understand that in this current economic
climate money is tight and learning in a formal setting can cost you
$xxx's! Even then you may not get the attention you need, that is
why my email line is fully open to all the people who purchase my
After you have mastered my book you may, like
me, want to start up your own business. Now with every business
there are of course a few risks and a few things you have to do in
order to do it legally. Again, as a person who has already gone
through this I can guide you through the procedure, even if I can
only point you to the right places, you'll always have me ready to
email you back.

If you are still a little
sceptical, why not take a minute to
read through some of the great feedback we’ve been receiving?
Everyone has their doubts, to doubt is to be human,
Hi I am writing to thank you for publishing
your new e-book on how to cut hair. It’s something that
I’ve been meaning to try for a long time now and when I
came across your e-book, I finally decided to have a go. Well
times have got so tough of late what with the credit crunch and
everything, so I figured I could save quite a bit of money just
by cutting my family’s hair. Our family is 5 me,
my husband, one little boy (4) and two little girls (7 and 9).
The e-book was really simple to understand and laid everything
thing out in easy to follow steps. I have to say that it’s
pretty much idiot proof as long as you follow what is says. My
own hair has never looked better because now I can afford to
keep it in shape so regularly.
I feel like a million dollars richer
and I’m saving money to boot. Thank you so much.
Your e-book is great. I am a single father
of 2 boys. Regrettably my wife passed a couple of years ago, so
it’s been quite a struggle trying to bring up my boys on
my own. Money gets pretty tight and I must admit I used to cut
my son’s hair with old pudding basin trick. It wasn’t
stylish, I’m the first to admit that, but it did keep the
growth in check and was clean.
A friend recommended your e-book
to me (I think she felt sorry for my boys) and since reading
it and learning about different cuts, my boys now look real trendy,
even if I do say it myself. I’ve also learned how to cut
my own hair too, so now even I don’t look quite so nerdy.
Steven, US
Thank you for producing such a fine e-book.
Since losing my job I have been struggling to make ends meet
and I have been looking around for a job I could do from home
so I could look after my little 3 year old daughter. When I came
across your e-book I knew that so with your
e-book at my side, I practiced on me and my daughter and I was
amazed at how well I actually did. I have to say the e-book is
brilliant. It takes you through the learning process step by
step and is easy to follow. I’ve already branched out and
started cutting the hair of some of my little daughters play
school friends.
My charges are a lot less than the local hairdresser
and the other moms are pleased to save money but still get their
kids a good haircut. It’s now developed into a great little
business through recommendation, so thank you for making it possible.

within 7 days!
