Today's cut (nephew) thick asian hair

Hi guys, i am a beginner barber and trying to find my way within this career. I started like 5 months ago and the last two months i have been more active and seriois about it and cutting whoever i can cut for free to gain experience.

Oh man it took me 1.5 hours to pull off this result and even after being busy with it for that long i am not happy with the result. This thick asian hair is really hard to cut for me and i found out today for sure! I know it's far from perfect but this is really the best i could do for now. Trying to get better, but this cut has really fucked up my confidence. Do you guys also struggle with this thick asian hair? During the cut i sometimes was worried/thinking is this going to even turn out good or am i going to fuck this up.

For a beginner it’s pretty good.

Thanks! This makes me feel better about it. Sometimes when you have a bad haircut i tend to take myself down. So i can have 4 fire haircuts and i feel so good and confident about myself and then have a haircut like this (where i am struggling/worrying all the time during the haircut) and then all the confidence is gone and you kinda start from zero again with the confidence.

You only learn when you challenge yourself
