To section your hair by yourself, you can divide it into four sections using straight lines, as demonstrated in the reference video, "Mastering Hair Sectioning: Divide Your Hair into 4 Parts Like a Pro!"
How To Section Your Hair into Four Sections:
Here's a breakdown of how to divide your hair into four sections by yourself, according to the video:
-
Start with a Straight Part Down the Middle: Use a comb or your fingers to create a clean, straight line from your forehead to the nape of your neck.
-
Divide from Ear to Ear: Following the reference, "again I'm just drawing a straight line and grabbing the hair parting it", draw a straight line from behind one ear, over the top of your head to behind your other ear. This should create two distinct sections: the front and the back of your hair.
-
Divide the Back Section: Split the back section in half by drawing a straight line from the center of the middle part down to the nape of the neck. This will give you a second and third section, now making three.
-
Complete the Front: Separate the remaining front section, again following the instructions by "drawing a straight line and grabbing the hair parting it", by creating a straight part down the center of the front section, creating the fourth section.
-
Secure the Sections: Use hair clips or ties to keep each section separate while you work on one section at a time.
-
You might adjust the size or shape of each section depending on the hairstyle or service you are doing.
-
The reference advises to create “a nice section going to right behind the ear and then depending on the service” you would adjust your sections.

Summary
By using a comb or fingers to draw straight lines, you can easily divide your hair into four sections: two in the front and two in the back, creating a workable base for styling or processing. The reference advises to make a line behind the ear when dividing the front.
