What does "getting your hair thinned out" mean and how does a hair dresser do this?

They use 'thinning scissors' they kinda look like they have teeth %26amp; only every second 'tooth' actually cuts the hair. Imagine having every second strand of hair cut, it takes the bulk out of the hair.

I hope I explained that clearly! lol.

It means that they razor the ends of your hair, usually layering it as well.

They use a razor and run it down your hair, removing the top layer of hair off if you get what I mean.

It's like using the edge of a pair of scissors on the side of your hair.

Your hair ends up thinner than it was before. :)

I've had it done two different ways.

One time, the hair dresser used thinning shears. Thinning shears cut some of the hair and leave the rest. It was horrible. I had a short hair cut, and then the lady came at me with the thinning shears, because I had curly hair. Snip. Snip. Down at the roots! Not the way to do it. I had all these random stalks sticking out, It was a mess. I think the lady just had no idea how to cut curly hair.

A good way to get your hair "thinned out" would be:...you know when you've got shoulder length hair, but your hair is thick, so it looks like a triangle shape. They go in and texturize. They cut at angles and remove the bulk of the hair from the ends, so that the cut has a more flattering shape. I have a feeling this is what people are referring to...not to my traumatic experience with the thinning shears.
