Its like after the 70s all hairdressers got amnesia and forgot what this cut was. Ive always loved a shag but no one knew how to do it anymore. I guess it morphed into the mullet and the technique was lost. So glad it's made a comeback.
All of this. I've always been better with a shag. Once when visiting a friend in NYC she took me to Sally Hershberger. Heaven. For a decade or two it seemed like she was the only one on the planet who could do it.
Thank you for saying that! I cut everyone's hair in a shag! Everyone wanted it alittle different. Then it morphed into a little longer cut called a "gypsy".
It’s true. My hairstylist used to love that I asked for this cut in high school and college bc I have curly hair. She started in the 70’s and gave the best razor cut shag cuts.
I got a wolf/shag haircut on Friday and I'm so in love with it. I was always scared of layering because I think I had very bland haircuts growing up, but I just can't stop messing with it and looking at it. It's so voluminous and fun. You can style it for more formal settings (I work in an office so I was a lil scared) but you can make it so much more fun and out there. Curl it, spike the ends out, raise the roots to make it that much bigger. Love it.
I asked my husband to help do the back of my head so he tried, but it made him so nervous he, “…felt nauseous.” Lol. But, it was explained so well by you that he gets the “idea” of how to do it. Bravo! 💚☺️😂
I'm doin it. I loved the first wolf cut and haven't had a styled cut in a really long time. Where I live if a stylist knows what you mean when you say I want a shag your lucky so this video will help greatly ty
I enjoy art and I see hair as an extension of that. I have seen so many videos on hair cutting but you truly made it easy to understand and seem like I can achieve it! Thank you!
BY FAR .. THE BEST HAIR STYLIST EVER 🔥💯 THANK-YOU 💯🔥 I'VE BEEN WAITING 59 YRS TO SEE "MY DREAM HAIRCUT" COME TO LIFE!! I'VE BEEN SO BUMMED OUT NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND ANYONE WHO IS CAPABLE OF DOIN' IT RIGHT I ACTUALLY THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER SEE IT HAPPEN. DEAR SANTA.. 💋🌹
Work smarter not harder 😉😉 the color is stunning.... I really like how this looks.... And clearly can work for curly hair.... Thank you.. Btw. It reminds me of Goldie Hawn back in younger days...
when does disconnection start to look like breakage? is it just more intentional? feel like these always need to be styled or else they look a bit chaotic and damaged..
@@PaulWattsHair sometimes I'm watching but don't comment but I'm always watching you and James just sometimes I don't feel like talking and other times I don't stop 🤣 but you are very welcome
Loved this one. Just so you know when you are showing the ends of the hair to show the cutting you don't have to move out of the way when you are wearing a darker shirt. It shows up better against that darker color of your shirt. Happy New Year. Hope you stay on here educating us all. I would love to see how to cut quite curly hair in a shag like Zendaya. Love that cut but they always look at me like I'm crazy to think they can do it. Oh!!! Great shirt by the way.
I love this and so wish I could do this to my own on my own. I'm not a hairstylist and really cannot afford one so I'm trying to learn some tips for my own hair. Most on UA-cam annoy me by talking too much or just their personality but you I can handle watching for longer than a few minutes.
How do you choose the length on the first guide (back) and the second (side)? Are you just trying to keep the hair as long as possible? What if I do a shorter cut, how do I relate guide number one and two?
Just an FYI, when using a mannequin with light colored hair, be sure to use a dark background so people can see the hair and where the guidelines are. And visa versa for dark hair.
Been asking for the way you did the back for awhile now and recently I asked for that and instead had 4-5 inches cut off my length. Anyway this is perfect. Going to save this video for when my hair grows out again...or travel to where you work.. 😁 Thank you.
Love this video and the hair color! But, there NO WAY I could do this myself! I can do the cut where u put the sections into the unicorn pony, but this looks like something you'd need someone's help!
This was awesome, thanks for sharing -- and Happy New Year, Paul! So I have a question (of course): My hair is fine but a lot of it, brown but scattered through with a lot of (sometimes wiry) grays (48 y/o), currently one length, and naturally wavy. Meaning, naturally wavy in that hard-to-control-but-won't-hold-a-curl sort of way. I'm dying to try both versions of this and so I'm torn. Which do you think would be better for my hair type? I feel the 2022 looks just a little too sleek to pull off with my hair texture. I feel like 2021 would be a lot more forgiving on a daily basis. What do you suggest?
I had hair down to my waist. I "thought" that I would give myself a longer version of the wolf cut. No one told me that you shouldn't do a wolf cut on crazy curly hair :( I wreaked my hair with this cut!!! Rats nest every morning and I spent hours trying to brush it out every time I took a shower. I cried when I finally decided to get a bob and let it grow back out! Now my hair is to my shoulders and I miss my long locks. PLEASE let me know how to grow it out fast!
Only ways to help hair growth are through 1) scalp stimulation (with a boar bristle brush and the bristles have been soaked in boiling hot water so that they soften up a bit) and 2) frequent haircuts. Go in every 6 weeks and ask them to take off just the split ends (16th of an inch or so). This will help the hair grow out healthy. Make sure you're using a good conditioner and look into a leave-in conditioner as well (apply it when you get out of the shower, leave it in all day). Avoid using heat tools (including hairdryer) and chemical services (coloring, perming, relaxing).
I’ve been cutting my hair like this for years..it’s very hard to find a stylist to do this technique..they are always scared of doing this and look like I’m crazy but then once it is done they are surprised to see the “illusion” of having fuller hair on top and effortless volume but I still struggle to find some one to cut my hair like this
You do this yourself??? Do you think I could di this myself? I have NO hair training whatso ever except I can trim it with some layers if I follow a YT video closely. Tyvm🙋♀️
I like both wolf cuts. However some people are still going to rock the 2021 that the 2022! The newer version is more rock chick than soft glam.. And the cut should suit the person wearing it and not let the style wear you. Just a thought but loving both 👍

Right?! Always loved the 60’s-80’s rock and roll shag hair cuts. Been wanting one for years but have been too scared

My inner emo/scene kid is very happy with the comeback of this hairstyle.
Literally about to say "scene" hair is back in style 🤩 lol
Oh yeah!😂

Getting one as well when I get my hair cut. I need a new style
I enjoy art and I see hair as an extension of that. I have seen so many videos on hair cutting but you truly made it easy to understand and seem like I can achieve it! Thank you!
Welll it’s official, I’m jealous of a mannequin !! Looks beautiful and I love the color!

Can feel the excitement coming off you,Paul. Love your no nonsense approach 😊
Thank you Lesley
So well explained and so easy to follow thanks
OMG. You are so creative! I love the huge messiness, the volume, perfect layering. It’s the cut I’ve wanted all my life! 💋💋♥️♥️🇺🇸
Cool. Way different then the way I learned to cut a "shag". But that WAS 43 years ago lol. Loved your tutorial thanks.
It's 2023 and I still love the Wolf Cut😊
Question: if you have wavy/curly hair, the same cut applies correct? Would you change anything about it? Please let me know. Thanks!!!
I used to have a similar haircut in the 80’s. We called it the Gypsy shag.
Shags rule.
Work smarter not harder 😉😉 the color is stunning.... I really like how this looks.... And clearly can work for curly hair.... Thank you.. Btw. It reminds me of Goldie Hawn back in younger days...
Goldie Shawn and Brigette Bardot are goals
Yes studio tour!
I LOVE this look!! 🔥🔥🔥
LOVE this!!! Such a pleasure to watch! Gorgeous!!!
when does disconnection start to look like breakage? is it just more intentional? feel like these always need to be styled or else they look a bit chaotic and damaged..
I did it and my CLIENT LOVES the end result it can out stunning....
I got my first in November and the lady change salon and there is no one who knows the wolf cut I love it
I love that look!💕
You explain so well 😊

Agree
I’m in loooove!!!!!!! Getting this cut and no one can stop me 😤😤even if looks not that flattering with my round face and double chin
😆 just do it
No regrets
@@Rachell_H ❤️
Do it, girl! It will work for you and me too! 🙋♀️👍🇺🇸
Looks beautiful 🥰😍 Paul
Thank you Toni

Wow 🤩 I wish I can get my hair cut from you 😍🥰🥰🥰 your so talented.
Perfection>.<
U're a great artist!
Would love to see the fringe done on a widows peak. That section won’t work for me 😭
Nice job can we use the bangs for other hair style🙏

It works if hair is already different length each side. What if you have similar length across the head? As if it never was prepared
Nice work Paul
Does this style work on hair that’s on the thinner side?
And yes!! Show us everything! 😁
Love this cut! Thanks for all your videos Paul and Happy New Year! 🎉💖
Thank you Marie glad you enjoyed it. Happy New Year
Back to the 80s ...whooohooo 🙌✌️❤️
I might dye my hair those colours.
Well done! Beautiful
Looks lovely Paul, the colour is stunning. X
Thanks mum xx
It’s stunning. I imagine a lot of people will be having this. Xx
@@suzannewatts8958 sure they will xx
I haven't had short hair since 1992.. My hair is fine and thin.. Would a bob work for me?
Cheers from Costa Rica 🇨🇷♥️🇨🇷🌍

Btw I gave my mom this same wolf cut. Her hair turned out beautifully. She has a bit of wave to her hair.
Before this cut I never had any problems brushing my hair. After I was literally ripping my hair out!

Nah, don't get boar bristles. Unethical. You can literally just massage your scalp with your fingers.
This haircut ruined my waist long hair too this style is only if you got straight hair
Its exelent. You are perfect Master.
The darkness of your shirt helped, but when you pulled the hair out in the wall was the backdrop you could not see the hair

Sublime 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍🤩
Awesome!🦁✂️💇🏼♀️
Is it best to dry and straighten the hair first if you have wavy thicker hair?
Increíble eres genial
My attraction to the wolf cut was because it was diy and still looked like it was styled.
It can be either, but as a hairdresser, I wouldn't be doing a DIY method, we have many techniques for creating adapted styles.
fantastic
Let me know if you come to builth wells salon I'll pop in
I'll be publishing all my dates soon
I asked for this cut back in 2011
Okay but one for curly hair please
I have already on my channel
Which colour did you use....joico or something else....perfect work....in did....
Too fancy to do at home haha
Beautiful love thank you.
Like it.. 👍👍
Hello bonne nuit welcome paul kbeautiful look🤝👏😀
I like this one. I think it would look like 💩 on my with my fine wavy hair tho 😥
I went and asked this at the hairdresser she didn’t know what I was talking about. Her coworker had to tell her.
Was that a picture of a hyena? I know that will be the next big trend! Every girl wants to look like a wild animal ;)
I said the same thing, it looked like a hyena 🤣
Lol! I was thinking that or some other wild dog! Not a wolf though!
👍👍👍👍☺️
Nov 20, 1992 is what the date showed in the camera lol I would have been 8 years old!
I can't find a hair dresser who keeps up with what's in
I wouldn't be able to see anything with those bangs in my eyes 😂
If your hair is that rocking beautiful you don’t need to see. Lol. 🙋♀️
Your camera says November 1992
That's an overlay for a bit of a change up
@@PaulWattsHair oh ok
Lol!
so... no perimeter and never any perimeter development
I don't feel wolf cut will suit a round face with wide jawline.
Took too long talking
Too much bla bla bla
