- Having fabulous hair is important.
- Alright, so not end all, be all important.
- But it's pretty darn high up there.
- Who are these gods and goddesses that use
their magic to make everyday hair into va-va-voom?
- It's Ladylike and this week
we're learning how to style hair.
(scissors snipping)
- Okay Kristin, you have 60 seconds
to style this Barbie's hair.
We want to see how good you are.
Time starts now. Woo!
- Fuck. Okay, hold on, I gotta shove this in here.
- Okay, let me see if I remember how to...
Ah! (laughs)
- How's it going?
- I think it's fine.
- Look at that bald spot.
- What's your game plan?
- [Jen] 30 seconds Chantel.
- Oh my god.
- Oh!
- Like wrap her hair into like a twist
and then put it in a bun.
(laughter)
- [Freddie] 10 seconds. - (shrieks)
- I'm done.
- Oh my gosh. Hair keeps...
Maybe I won't be that good at this.
- [Chantel] 13 seconds to spare.
(laughter) - [Freddie] Five seconds.
(laughter)
- [Jen] Three, two, one.
- [Chantel] Time. Time's up.
- Hooray, I did it.
- [Freddie] Look at that updo.
- Yay? I'm drooling. (laughs)
(laughing)
- I think that this week is going to be stressful.
I think it's gonna be a time
I might scream at certain points.
But I do think that we will get through it.
- We've done harder things before.
I think that we can master this.
- So obviously there's no way that we can all learn
how to cut, color, and whatever-the-hell in like three days.
That's not gonna happen.
But, we've each selected a style that our stylist mentor
is going to teach us how to do.
- We're gonna be with a hair stylist
named Rebekah at her salon
and we're gonna learn how to style pretty simple haircuts.
- We're gonna have a pop-up shop that's more like a dry bar
and we're gonna have a menu of styles
that we're gonna offer.
- And we will turn our coworkers into total smoke shows.
- Yeah, let's go learn how to do hair better than this.
Rebekah, please help us.
(upbeat music)
- Hi, my name's Rebekah Lesser.
I'm a hair stylist here in Los Angeles.
I have been doing hair for about 10 years now.
- So the hairstyle that I chose is like a vintage body wave.
- I'm actually going to be focusing
on learning how to trim bangs evenly.
- I'm learning a crown braid today
and it's something that I see all over the place
and I'm like, I don't know how to do that.
- Okay, so this week I'm doing a big southern curly hair.
Lots of volume, lots of curls, lots of designing women,
lots of Chick-fil-A sauce.
- So we've got four hours to teach these looks.
Let's see how these ladies do.
- Which is perfect because I chose this very style
for Kristin's wedding hair and she wore it for her wedding.
- So that's where we'll start and
you're gonna wanna keep your sections.
- Okay, I think going over is gonna,
make me feel a little bit, oh my God.
- So then we're gonna start.
And you can just open it with the pinky,
and wrap the hair so you're not worrying
about moving it too much.
And you're going to curl it onto its base,
and that's gonna help create the volume.
- OK.
- That's combing it so we are probably
gonna have to re-wet it actually.
Usually, how I do it is I'll use my pinky
to kind of swoop up the section.
- Like this? - Yeah.
- The guide is just barely visible.
- Wrapping...
Wrapping...
- I know, sorry. Tell me if I'm hurting you.
- You're fine. - She has a hard head.
So she's good (laughs) - OK good.
(contemplative music)
- Adding that to the middle.
- Yep.
- Oh, it's supposed to do that.
- Yeah.
- Oh OK.
Cool.
- Believe it or not, I do this to my own hair
like every day, so you'd think that I would be
less of like, a skittish pony right now.
- I was gonna scare you, like be like, ow!
- (Rebekah laughs)
- But then, I decided not to do that.
- It'd be so mean.
- Easy, doing this with you like telling me where to put it,
but I'm not confident that I'll know where to put it.
- So flipping good, I can already tell.
- I think you look awesome.
- We can put some spray in it.
- I'm into it.
- Yes! I think you look so good.
(upbeat music)
- I mean, this looks fun. I like it.
- Right? - Yeah!
- I think you're going to be fine, Fred.
- I can't even do that, and I've had bangs for a while.
- Thanks. - Hello!
- Thank you.
Oh my God.
- You guys are going to do a great job.
- Thank you, you're very sweet for saying that.
(both laughing)
(twinkling music)
- Today's the day.
We have our pop-up salon here at the office.
- I'm styling hair. I'm, me. This guy.
- There's dogs here, did y'all know that?
- Our pop-up salon is named Cham-puppies
because we have champagne and puppies.
- Hang out, relax. Welcome to Cham-puppy.
We're all gonna get through the day.
We're all gonna survive.
This is what I'm telling myself.
- I practiced on a wig the other day
and that wasn't that bad.
It's kind of hard to practice on a wig.
- [Freddie] Is Rebekah going to bring anything,
or just herself?
- I'm excited to get my,
to get my working hands into more hair.
- Hopefully we knock it out of the park.
I am scared though.
- (high-pitched laugh)
- Look, the thing about burning a person
is that it's generally frowned on.
- I think it probably takes me about like,
15 minutes per person.
- [Woman] She said she only needs 15 minutes.
- Really? Well, that's impressive.
- I'm ready.
- Cham-puppies let's open up!
(80s style pop music)
- Hi!
Welcome to my salon.
- Thank you.
- Are you ready to get started?
- Yeah, I'm very ready.
- I came with my natural normal hair today,
which is like a dead, sad, undefined wave.
- Alright, so I'm giving you big southern curls today.
- I'm like, I'm ready to get glam today.
- Look, I do my own hair all the time,
and as far as you know, I haven't burned any of it off.
So it should be okay.
- It's 3:06.
Chrissy is late.
- Yeah, we give you champagne and then we also give you,
- Would you like a puppy?
- Aww. - We also give you a puppy.
- This is going to throw off my entire day.
Six minutes is a lot.
- Aww. - He needs a bath.
Oh hi.
You look lovely.
- I'm super stoked to see Freddie's hairstyling skills,
I have no doubt that she will fully deliver on this look.
I am putting her under a little extra added
pressure and drama because I was late.
- Are you guys having fun?
- We're having a blast. - Totes.
- Yeah!
Did you get another appointment?
- Yeah, I had a cancellation so I'm just here.
- What's the name of the place?
Cham-puppies.
- Yay this is my first client.
This is Thespi.
- I'm excited to be here at Cham-puppies to get a
braided crown.
- We're off to a great start.
- How do I really feel?
Same, what I just said.
- I got too much.
We're gonna put it on my hair a little bit first,
and then we'll...
- I feel like I will need another glass of this.
- Yay Jern!
- Jern, you woke up?
I need to wake up.
Hi Libby, nice to see you again.
Look at you!
- I'm a little bit nervous, but really like,
bangs grow back.
(laughs)
It's time for a trim.
It's still like, trying to defy gravity a little bit.
- Who's Rachel Emmer? Who is that?
Does she have the ability to fire me?
(Libby laughs)
Alright then, whatever. Bring her in.
Sorry, I didn't realize I would get dripped so much.
(laughter)
- Uh-oh mom is here. Uh-oh.
- I think you're doing a good job and I know,
- (laughs) you started out with a laugh.
- So I just start a little lower.
- Yeah. - Oh.
- The thing is, it doesn't look ugly.
I'm just trying to figure out what to do with this part.
- If it was me personally, and it was my client,
I would re-do it, yes.
- Fine!
- Maybe.
- I think it could be a little finer and more straight.
- So my second appointment is here,
I have probably another 20 minutes to do on Chrissy's hair,
but you know, that's what happens in hair salons.
You have to wait.
- Oh!
Come say hi!
Earl's here.
- Hey baby Earl.
- Oh my God! Yes!
- [Woman] Jen, second appointment is here.
- I just finished curling Nina!
(cheering)
Thank you everyone.
- So right now, it's like a little after 3:45,
and I'm here to get my hair done with Freddie,
and apparently I'm waiting.
- OK, please come here and look at your...
- Oh!
- What? (laughs)
- No, it looks great. I've never had my hair up like this.
It was great. I don't get my head braided ever.
- Thanks for being my first client,
and for not canceling on me.
- Hi James. Welcome, welcome.
- So I edit the Ladylike videos and
I came over to see what was happening.
I've seen a lot of the madness.
This could go either way.
- You get the one style that I semi-know how to do.
- This is the moment of truth.
- Yeah the brush-out is really where
it's the make or break moment.
- It looks so good.
I am so impressed with her skills.
I'm so proud of her.
I feel like a proud mom.
I'm so happy.
- Thank you. - Thanks mom.
- This is looking a lot tighter
than the last one that I did.
- The champagne, I mean, it could only do so much,
and where are the puppies?
- OK. (laughs) Here we go.
- Yeah, I would definitely come back to Kristin.
This is the thing, she won't let you leave the chair
if it doesn't look nice, you know what I mean?
And that's what you need in a stylist.
You don't want someone who's going to half-ass it.
- Of course. - Yay! (laughs)
- So this is the job I did.
Here you go. These are your bangs.
- They look really good.
It went really well. I wouldn't even do it again. (laughs)
She was pretty nervous so,
she wanted to make sure she did a good job.
- Oh hi YB, how are you?
- Cheers. - Cheers!
- My name is YB. I'm a video editor for Ladylike.
I get my hair styled by them, so finally
they do something for me.
(laughs) Just kidding.
- Let's look at your hair.
I think that we're gonna have a lot of fun.
- This is my second client. Her name is Rachel.
I will be doing a bangs trim on her.
- Hi, I'm Rachel. I do post-production.
I don't get out of the basement very much.
- Chantel gave me a new look.
- Birthday boy James is done.
- I think this is gonna be the future for me.
I would come back to Chantel for a braid again.
- Two down!
(Earl barks)
- Earl.
(barking)
- Hello, welcome. Welcome to Cham-puppies.
- Hi, I'm Kate.
I'm the Head of Physical Production here at Buzzfeed.
I don't really do my hair.
- I feel like, I'm like, "No, no, no. There there child."
- [Kristin] I think it does a better job.
- You did my hair. Oh yeah!
- Just a little bit. Oh that's fine.
- Forgive me.
(laughter)
- When I walked up to the mirror,
I wasn't sure what I was gonna see,
like I was afraid it was gonna be kind of like,
jack-o'-lantern, but it was actually really nice.
- Okay I may have given lip about her being a little late.
Totally worth the wait though.
I'm in love with my hair right now,
and I can't get enough of like,
this sideswept Hollywood dramatic side-part bang.
- Thank you so much.
- You did an amazing job. Look at you.
- So Kate, you are all done. I hope that you liked this.
It does look really nice on you, I think.
- Oh wow.
Oh I definitely would go back to Chantel
to do my hair again, and I probably will.
She's probably gonna be sorry that she
did this for me today.
- So I am done with my clients. I did three.
- Ready? - Yes.
- You ready to see?
So?
- I feel like a Hollywood star.
I am so impressed. I mean, look at this.
(laughs) I could never do this by myself,
and I've never done it this way.
Like, I've curled my hair before but,
nothing glamorous like this and it looks amazing.
- Do you like it? - Oh my God, thank you.
(both laugh)
- Hey there!
- How did you even get here?
(laughter)
- Where is your leash?
- So how was this experience for everybody?
- I think overall, you guys did really well.
I think the first client was the most of a struggle,
but after that you guys kind of
started getting in your groove.
- When you say overall, like did one of us bring
the average down any or was it like?
- No, I think just across the board, it was all...
Yeah, it was all a different skillset.
- Can we talk about Freddie?
We haven't talked about Freddie yet,
and how Freddie is like Mister Wizard over here.
- She's a natural.
- I do feel really comfortable and kind of
in my element doing hair. I think it also,
it's just like, it's calming for me.
- I don't know, that was like, eye-opening just how like
laser focused you need to be, which is really cool.
- I just have like a slightly heeled bootie
and my feet are done for.
I need to go home and take a nap.
- Hair stylists Lady tested.
- [Ladylike girls] Lady is all smooth.
- Smoothie smoothie, just like a little baby.
- That was fun.
- Yeah it was a good time.
- [Chantel] It was fun.
- (in chorus) Hey!
- We have a new channel.
- It's called Ladylike.
- Click here to subscribe.
- Up there.
- [Chantel] Ay!
Right here, right here.
