This gave me the most beautiful haircut I’ve ever gotten. I’ve been cutting my own hair since middle school so I had some confidence to do it & I have no regrets. I just had to give it a few retouches around my face frame to blend but other than that, this was by far the easiest haircuts I’ve done as well. If you’re looking for a sign, this is it!
Fantástico!! Funciona!!
Does your mom get mad when you cut your hair? I know mine would if i cut my hair without her permission.
Also do you have any tips for cutting your hair?
I am 80 yrs old, and I just cut my hair using your 3-pony-tail instructions for a shag cut. Since I still have some perm, the cut has some waves and curls. It turned out very well. (I had already cut some bangs, (an old-fashioned term for "fringe".) It turned out very well.
I started learning to diy layer cut my hair when going out was limited during Covid.
I have naturally wavy hair (not completely curly but definately not straight), and there really is no chance to mess this up as long as you follow the tutorial with my type of hair. It looks SO cool and you don't even need to style it!
did you cut your hair wet or dry?
@@BIBIisBOREDXD dry :)
I am thrilled with this. The hairdressers in my area just can't seem to cut a shag or maintain it
That’s fantastic, I think curly wavy hair do better with this cut. If you make a mistake it’s more forgiving.i have wavy hair however I need to grow it before attempting this style.
I’d like to see him do the cut without the pig tails, he’s a remarkable hairstylist.
@@ninilambnini3497 No they can’t, they don’t seem to get it. Maybe they need to watch these videos, they appear to do the same ole same ole. As much as I explain, I still come out with the same cut. 🤷♀️
I literally studied this video over and over for 2 days before I did it! This technique is FReAKING genius!! Thank you so much for this! You saved me about $30.00 for a new haircut and your technique made my husband think that there was NO WAY I did this ! Love it! I recommend for anyone as long as you place the ponty tails in same location. Also be sure to cut it straight out on the sides and straight up on the top, it is fool proof! Thank you!!!!
Wow, that's dedication! happy it turned out so well...I wish someone around me only charged $30.00 for a cut!
And the best part of this plan is, Nobody can stop me.
AHAHAHAHA BRUHH 😂
I've followed this tutorial twice now, about a year apart, once longer in length and this time shorter. This is by far the easiest, cutest haircut I've ever had. Thank you for making this!!
OMG...if you are on the fence about doing this....DO IT! It is super easy! Paul breaks it down to it's simplest form...and it work! I just went from drab to FAB in 5 minutes! Thanks Paul...keep up the great work!
OMG I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR HOW TO DO THIS HAIRCUT FOR 20 YEARS! My cousin was a hair dresser and gave me this haircut when I was 16, wasn’t sure how she did it except I had to flip my head upside down and I think she cut it straight across. But no one I’ve went to knew what I was talking about when I explained it. It was my FAVORITE haircut and my first drivers license picture has been the only one that I’ve really liked because my hair looked fabulous lol
I can't believe how well this haircut works! I cut it for my teenage daughter and have kept it up for months now. You've saved us a fortune and taught me a skill. Thanks!
I feel like this is the only haircut that suits everyone, it looks so good!
frrr
@@oty7613 ok
It really is universally flattering.
just did this cut on my curly hair. I have yet to wash and style it, but so far i think this is exactly what my hair needed. thank you!
and how it turned out I want to do but I'm afraid 😭😭😭😭
@@naomipalacios80 Ok i think if you skip the top section and just do the two pigtails it would prob work better. I ended up with a really short top layer because of that top ponytail 😂
@@crashofthemoons ok thanks 💖😎
I've cut my hair in the past when it's flat ironed but I want this cut for my curly hair.. I think I'm gonna try.
You have saved my life really. I am so allergic to hairspray just breathing in flakes triggers asthma. So no salon visits. My back is so screwed up standing too long is difficult. Used to take me an hour or more to cut my hair for sit down breaks. This is wonderful and it looks better too! ❤️😘
Just tried it cant wait to dye and wash and blow dry ...i have been cutting my own hair like in for ever since i was a teen am 51 now and i am very confident i did i good job .. THANK YOU for your tutorial ...
5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Last time I asked a hairstylist to do layers to my long hair, but he make it really short. So I try to cut my hair by myself and I'm satisfied. Thank you so much
I’ve been trying to get this haircut forever! I used to get it back in the 70’s. Great cut and I’m going to try it!
I've been asking for a shag haircut for years, & my hairdresser didn't know what I was talking about. I'll save myself $130.00 & now do it myself, with a mix of the wolf cut ✂️ 😎!!
First cut, on the top, great view of your arm.. 🤣
Same. I've been trying to get this cut at the salon for a while now. Last time it looked like they put a bowl on my head and cut around it, that's how bad the layers were. I'm gonna try this once my hair grows out a little.
@@Homenuggets I can't find anyone that can cut a shag , they can't even cut layers at all and have both sides be the same ! I swear the hair schools don't teach cutting layers anymore!
Only suggestion would be not to cover the view of the hair with your arm when cutting the top ponytail….couldn’t see what you were doing but I love the cut and can’t wait to try it!
Wowwww
This is the best haircut for my hair!
I have curly hair in the back of my neck and weird curls by my ears.
So, i cut the side tails really short and the upper tail more to the front (unicorn).
Now i have a short shaggy wolfcut!
With platina dye it has a Debby Harry vibe (Blondie).
I am 55 years old and it looks awesome! I wish i coold show a picture here.
Thank you!
I watch this twice, went into the bathroom and did it myself, turned out great…
I would have tried all your shag cuts when i was younger, every time i would go get my hair layered, it was the same old thing and always to short. The back would be to my shoulders. I was a teen in the 80's. I loved the rocker layered cut, but never wound up that way. I know i would have done it myself if I saw someone like you showing us how to do it.
really reccomend this hair cut guysss its super easy to do and the result is absolutely looking stunning !!!
I'm in the hair business over 40 years what I love about this business everyday you can learn something new technique-wise etc from junior staff level to owner creative designer.
This is a great technique a nice fresh approach love it it's my new go-to brilliant bravo 💪💪💪
🎉🎉🎉thank you soooo muchhhhhh!!!! ❤❤❤since I spend so much money for my daughter’s high school prom night I ended without money 💰 to pay a hairstyle salon for her 😢 thanks to your technics you save my Day , you can imagine how many girls you save the day ❤ I will subscribe to you channel thanks 🙏🏼 and god bless you😢😢😢greetings from Texas .
I decided to cut my hair in a shag cut on impulse last night and without this video, I would have completely screwed me hair up. As it is, it looks great. Literally so easy to do. Thank you!
The first time I fallowed this video and cut my hair, it was really really good 👍😊. Causing my head to grow so when it was time to cut it again , I wasn't worried. I loved my haircut so much , I watch all his video's. This one is the cut for me!!! 2nd time around I was overconfident that I could cut it quickly. I thought I remembered how, but boy I was wrong. I guess I confused the process because I had watched so many videos that day. Should have watched the video again to remind myself of all the details. Now I'm just waiting for my hair to grow out.
I have worn this type of shag / layer cut most of my life even when it wasnt
" in style " i love it and will keep coming back for my go to cut 😁 thanks for showing another way to achieve the look !!
do u have layers in the back
@@haleyanaya2227 yes , all over layers..the shortest layer sits about top of my ear..altho i do snip here & there on the top of my hair , when mood strikes , to give a bit more volume
Yes same here. I got a shag back in the eighties and have worn it ever since. Kind of made me mad here recently when it took over the internet and everybody has it. LOL
Me too. Its just suits
@@hotrod66ify Me too. I have curly hair and have had a shag cut back since the 80's also. But the last few years I can't find anyone that knows how to cut any layers ..it's been frustrating. I thought maybe the hair school stopped teaching how to cut layers !
I used this method this morning, and it looks great. I started long though to leave room for errors. After the second go, I was happy. I haven't had layers in years. Thank you!
My first attempt at cutting my own hair, without using a Flowbee!
A hair dresser recently damaged the top part of my hair during a cut, and I was hesitant to visit another salon. I stumbled upon this video last night and went out today and bought $15 styling shears (Oster brand) and $23 blending shears (Oster). My hair came out SO AWESOME!
I really like the wispy bottom and the many layers on top. The bangs shape my face perfectly, and my Boyfriend says I look like a Cyberpunk character :D I used the blending shears after cutting a straight line instead of the point-cut method in the video, but I love the look I got even more :) This whole experience gave me the confidence boost I needed, as well as save a lot of my hair length while still getting rid of all the damage.
Thank you very much Paul
Flowbee?! 😂
@@marriedjuana hell yeah Flowbee 🤣
Beautiful. This was really entertaining. I saw this with my own eyes and the wolf cut you did; I still can not believe my eyes!
I just did this and it came out FABULOUS !!!!
ABSOLUTE BEST DIY SHAG CUT EVERRR!!! Thank you soooo much for sharing.
Not sure how I missed this during lockdown but I found this today! I did it! Only change I made was I pulled my entire frame up instead of just the V. I'm absolutely in shock at how AMAZING it came out!!!!
Me lo curte con esta técnica hace 2 meses, hoy le hice un retoque. Realmente es más que fácil hacerlo, tomando que me he estado cortando el cabello antes de pandemia. Nunca quedaba conforme con el corte de cabello. Ahora siento que nadie puede cortar mi cabello mejor que yo.
Thank you for posting this!! I have been cutting my own hair for years but was afraid to try this cut because it seemed so complicated and time consuming. So excited to try it out 😍 especially with all the other reviews of people who had amazing results
This worked really well for me, I wish I had tried this technique first. Even though my hair is so thin I look like a bug with three antenna.
I've been doing the top pony since the 80s. Love this idea. Just cut off 6 in doing wolf cut the other day and it turned out great. I'll have to try this. Thank you.
I did this - it was sooo easy, and it turned out great! I left it a tad longer, and I love it!
Fabulous! Worked great. Took so much less time than usual too.
Oh my goodness I got to try this I just need to get my daughter to see if I’m doing it right because I want the long shag look thanks for sharing🥰
I love it 👍🏼 I only cut off the tips when I think it's necessary, after that they always fall great and look great.
a tip: so that the hair on the pony doesn't get too short, i let a strand out at the front, otherwise it will fall out when i put on a ponytail.
Thank you for the great video Paul 👍🏼
SHAZAAAM I LOVE THE SECTIONING! totally SHOWS the overdirecton making it visually easier to understand for anyone...
your tutorials have been so great!! especially during this time many people still aren't able to go out to salons to get their hair cut, these have been awesome c: and so do-able for someone cutting their own hair!
Tried this today.. It's good
Tried this cut last night, it turned out great! Only cut off about half of what you did, thinking I wanted it longer - nah - the other half comes off tomorrow :)
-- EDIT-- Word of advice, don't bring the side ponytails to the front to cut - hold them up & out like in the video! (Re: cutting more off/other half - my shoulder was sore so took the easy way out & now have two very blunt cut pieces on the sides, oops. Fixable, but atm, looks pretty stupid :P )
Can I ask how you fixed it? I just did the same thing😅
@@AD-lk4wu Oh dear! I feathered the blunt sections a bit by gathering it in chunks & upper cutting a bit about once a week - took close to 6 wks to get it looking not so stupid lol. Not perfect yet, but getting there. I (Could) have just chopped it all to even it out but wanted to keep the length. Another few wks & plan to try the cut again - properly haha - I like the shag look. (Oh & in the meantime I used mousse & a brush to curl it under so it didn't look so blunt, if that helps)
Thank you so much for replying! I am going to use your tips going forward. Hopefully in a few weeks we both look a bit better lol
@@AD-lk4wu Good luck to you! :) Chopping your own hair can sometimes be an interesting journey lol.
Same! I'm so bummed. I'm not daring to do any more myself. Going to salon tomorrow to see if they can morph it into a Rachel. Wish me luck 🍀🤞
I followed this tutorial exactly and love my hair!! Thank you so much, Paul.
I'm cutting mine tonite. Omg so simple and easy. It looks amazing! Exactly what I've been wanting for my hair style. Thank You for sharing❣️ love it
Hmmm, excuse me, what is this sorcery? I was hesitating for a while to get the shag/ wolf haircut, because my fine straight long hair hates layers and has no shape, I also don't like hair in my face, but when I saw your tutorial I decided to go for it. I did it at 2 am, I filmed, but I wasn't planning uploading it, but I think I will, because it looks great and I only found one diy vidéo using this tutorial. For those hesitating for fine hair, it actually gave mine lots of volume and looks great without styling it (I never style my hair, don't have any tools or products for this, hence why I was hesitant). No extra cut needed, the three chops are enough. I cut it à bit longer, so I went it to shorten a few strands on the top, but not much. And the answer to my biggest question, that I didn't find answer for: does it look good in a ponytail? Absolutely fucking yes, it looks amazing with the curtain bangs, and you can even do it with smaller bits of bangs. If you attach all your hair, there are some short hairs pointing, but you can avoid attaching it in the ponytail and use pins instead. The ponytail is smaller, but looks cute and fluffy if it's high. Overall, go for it, I was expecting to hate it, but I love it so far.
Also, because I'm a millenial, I tried doing the side part and it looks great 😊
Great! You answered the only two questions I had lol
Glad to hear, I totally recommend it, it's my haircut now, it also looks good when it grows longer, so no need to cut often, and it looks amazing with no styling at all, also in ponytail, bun, pigtails, I never thought my fine hair would like layers, but i am not going back to long straight hair for sure. @@kaydavis3297
Did this one hour ago came out amazing I love it😭😍😍😁!!!!!!!
I’m an old hairdresser here. The shag was my very first haircut. And now I’m going to go do it again. We used to call over direction “traveling” Looks like there’s pretty much very little chance of messing this up. Very cute. On my way.
How did it turn out?
Yes how did it turn out?
Love this cut. Takes the guess work out of it. What’s more it really suits me.
This is a fantastic tutorial. So glad I found you. 😊
I have a couple of suggestions to help your viewers see what you do better.
1. Either wear a light colored shirt with dark hair, or get a lighter haired model dummy. Just like with sign language interpreters wearing a contrasting shirt so their hands can be seen better.
2. We could not see anything while you cut the top part. Your arm was directly blocking it. I would cut from the back side of the head in the future.
Thank you for your videos! 😊❤
No domino mucho el inglés pero seguí todos tus pasos y me quedo super bien, muchas gracias y saludos desde México 🇲🇽🤠
I can never get my hairdresser to give me this type of shag with shorter layers on the crown and I always have to alter it. I will try this - you are a genius Paul - thank you for sharing your brilliant technique.
Waow 🤩🤩🤩 stunning results for a haircut in just 3 steps, love it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Left is round above the ears, right is flat. Everybody sees you did it yourself
@@johnroekoek12345 omg no.
Hace unos días me hice el corte Kitty que subiste hace poco y hoy vine por este, estaba alaciado así que mañana veré cómo me quedó, muchas gracias por el tutorial 😍😍😍
Te quedo muy bonito❤, gracias por compartir tus conocimientos.
Love the shag, you should get a blonde wig next time or wear a lighter colored shirt, when you're cutting next to your shirt we cant see too well.
Excellent example of fast condensed cutting! If we showed up at a salon,and they cut our hair like this,we'd think they weren't "professional",even if it turned out great! If it can deliver this fantastic of a look,why not?
Do you have a video about making the back short wispy cut?
I've cut my hair with just the ponytail on top since 1967, then just trim bangs and sides.💕
Well...I decided to do my own Shaggy. If it goes wrong, I'll wear a ponytail until it grows. Thanks for the video!
Everyone loves this haircut, so I'm tempted to try...the issue I can't figure out is how short to cut the sides IN RELATION to the top...Like if the sides are 2-3 inches out from the ponytail holder, does that mean the top, too, should be cut the exact same amount?
@PaulWattsHair ... eh?
I tried this. It turned out amazing.
Just did the wolf-cut today. Will be doing this tomorrow
How did it go? I too did the wolf cut first, now doing this, so I need a little idea whether I should go ahead or let my hair grow and then cut it.
Iv been doing hair for year's and I love your techniques any time saved in a cut and to still turn out a good cut is a win win for me thanks
If you’re wondering if you can do this, you can. I have absolutely no experience in hair but I was sick of it being heavy. My mom helped me the first time, & I’ve cut it by myself 3xs since. You have to take your time & make sure you get the parts right. And don’t cut straight. Just cut V’s into your hair (point cut) and that will make it shag & not jagged 😂 IVE NEVER IN MY LIFE HAD THIS MANY COMPLIMENTS ON MY HAIR!!!!!!!!!
I wish my hair was long enough to have my hair cut like this. I love it and it seems so simple to do.
Don't have the link, but there's a tutorial somewhere on You Tube for doing a short shag cut
I did this exact thing with my very short hair and it looks absolutely adorable, highly recommend
this would be fun to do with a flowbee. there are few examples of how to get a flowbee to do anything interesting. ponytails could change that.
Sweet I'm gonna style mine like that. Have never seen a shag so nice 😀
I've had great success with the unicorn cut, but don't like the mullet shortness on the sides. I'm working on fixing layers from a reverse crown unicorn which was not good for my wavy hair. This cut seems to blend the layers well. This will be my new go to cut for my medium length wavy hair. I can never get good layers at the salon anymore.
I also can't get good layers from anyone. I swear hair school stopped teaching layers .
Absolutley love this. Great tutorial. I have noticed though, that in your videos, it is much easier to see the details of the cut on lighter colored hair. Just a wee suggestion 😉 Thank you for all you do. 💜
Loved the intro! You looked like you had ponytails lol
😂😂
Love it !!! My hair is past my butt thick & curly & I want this cut but not this short so what do I do ?
Wow. It looks good!
How do you do the front section so it has a side part rather than a middle part?
This is so beautiful. Can’t wait to try. ❤
All I can say is WOW!!!! I SO LOVE THIS CUT!!!! XO 💖😘
Would this worked with 2 pony tails on the side
This turned out great on my shoulder length hair. I had a bit of a "step" but I went back and recut a bigger top section and it blended better. So quick as well. Thank you!!!
As in the triangle part is bigger. I'm afraid of a step as well would love a reply thanks
@@belz9695 yes the triangle section
This is a game changer! Thank you, Paul!!!
OMG I love it, going to try it on my hair!!!
OKAY!!! I'm doing it. Right now. Wish me luck!
Thanks to you, now I can cut my own hair!!
Super práctico súper sencillo muy espontáneo muy buenas técnicas
I wanna try this haircut but i dont have salon kind of scissors. What scissor you recommend is best to use??
This is perfect! So much easier and takes out my problem of not being able to see the back of my own head! I have been cutting it somewhat but just cannot se the back and now it is too long and I just needed this!
Would it be possible to show any short cuts to a Bob hair do? Personally, I seem to need layers and the Point cut for texture too. I ask hairdressers to point cut and about the bangs to eyebrows and they ask me so I let them know some of the ideas of what I think I should have but let them go with what they want in the end. But then find often they get it too short and they think I am too bossy I think and then they just cut it short sometimes, I get new people all the time at he mall. So maybe one or two do it nicely ,and when they give me a card ready with schedule they quit or change hours as it varies. I seem to need the layer cuts and used to have the Shag. If I ask for this, they act like I am talking in another language and they have another name for it!
I honestly appreciate it and will try this the day after Easter! I get afraid though have to admit, but now that I see how it looked when you took it out of pony tails, I see the difference. I thought it would be too small with two inches into the pony tail. But it was perfect. Longer shag! Exactly right for me I think!? it is getting hard to afford getting hair done anymore! TY TY!!!
Yes, finally!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!! Doing it tomorrow after I color it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woohoo!!!!!!!
What if I want to keep my long length but still have lots of layers?
So, this removes bulk from the corners of the cut instead of the edges?
Thanks Paul...sure do appreciate your sharing of the instructions for cutting this shag cut.
Thank you Marlene. Glad you enjoyed it.
Love these pony tail cuts...
Thank you Paul. Can you do a shag haircut with bangs please.
Thank you for your video.Does it look good on curly hair?
Good job really nice looks so good✌️😀
Waoooo this haircut looks very good ,sir you guide us in very easy way
I'm just looking to add more layers to my already shaggy ish cut lol ty
I love it.. thaks for sharing.. is it right to do ponytails on clients?
Will a longer version of this work? I have very long hair down to my lower back. It's also fine and pin straight (but extremely thick, so I need weight taken out!). Could shaggy layers work for my hair type?
Hi! Not a hairstylist here, but I binge watch haircuts videos. The Shaggy cut needs volume to look good. You can see back in the 70s it was about natural waves. If you have very straight hair you'll need curling tools to create waves. Otherwise it will look just like normal layers. Also, I've seen that women with straight fine hair go for shorter layers, a more edgy look. Hope it helps!
I'd just do the front maybe.
My hair is thick, shoulder length, and straight. Would this cut take any length off my hair? And will I have to style it?
спасибо вам за ваши видео. они помогают мне самой стричься так как я хочу нежели идти к парикмахеру и гадать сделает ли он то что я просила или нет
Can i have the same result if my hair is 5 times heavier than the model?
