I LOVE IT when my hair stylist rips my head off and shakes it around! It's my favorite part of a haircut!🤪

UMMMM? i literally am standing in the bathroom over all my freshly chopped off hair and i have genuinely never felt like such hot shit ??!!!! it feels SOO much better and lighter and yet a lot of the length is still there which is what i was concerned about. AND my hair is straightened so there’s more room for error but with spending a little extra time sectioning it all, it doesn’t look choppy whatsoever. i’m like blown away that this worked so well and was so simple, like it feels like my versions of things are usually the walmart kind or like “nailed it!” cakes but this shit WORKED!!!!

Mr. Paul Watts, thank you for bringing Rock'n'Roll back to town

I just wanted to thank you for your tutorials and excellent explanation of these cuts! I have an autistic kiddo and salons are an overwhelming experience of sound, new people, talking eye contact and just everything that can cause a huge meltdown. As kiddo is getting older and likes more trendy hairstyles, this helps us more than you know!

Just tried this technique today and it works perfectly for me!! I've been a fan of the diy ponytail haircut in the past ten years (another traumatized from bad haircuts from bad hairdressers, so I decided to start saving my money and chopping it myself) and today I decided to try this one for more layers. You're a genius. ❤️

Fifty years ago I had my hair cut in a ponytail shag and have tried to replicate it by pulling all my hair up in one ponytail and cut it myself. Never could quite get it like I wanted but I tried this and I not only love how it looks but it's so easy! It's perfect...thank you😊

Just did this cut on my own hair, must say it turned out great considering I'm not a hairdresser. It took me a while to section off the hair correctly as I didn't want to balls this up, I did end up cutting another two inches off the back bottom pony tail after as I wish I'd been a bit braver on the initial cut, but overall I'm chuffed to bits with all the layers.

I have been cutting my own hair for about 12 years because no one can get it right. I have some pattern thinning around the front of my head and I'm wondering if this cut will add thickness and volume without sacrificing the length. I'm going to give it a shot and do some before and afters if you're interested in seeing them.

Just did this, took me about 15 minutes tops with the video playing on 75%. It looks *incredible* and is the closest I've got to the best haircut I've ever had (about 20 years ago, didn't even know it was a wolf cut!). Thank you, soooo much ❤

THIS IS PURE GOLD! Oh wow! Exactly the cut I get when we could afford it. Thank you so, so much! Paired with Brad Mondo curtain bangs and my hair is perfect ❤ For my thick, wavy hair I had to divide each ponytail in half, "snip" separately, then use as a guide for the other half 👍

Definitely outdoes the Butterfly Cut❗ Love this 💜

I tried this today on my long 2b curly hair (kinda on the thinner side) and I’ve never been so happy with a haircut in my life. I didn’t make it too drastic since it’s always possible to cut off more when you don’t like it and I might trim a little more after I see how my curls deal with the cut after the next washday (iykyk). But so far: I am obsessed!! Did go for a longer curtain bang since curly bangs are a pain in the a*s and it looks so nice and natural

This is the absolute PERFECT CUT for me!! Just did this on what my fave hair stylist and friend- may she RIP- referred to as my 'crazy a** head of hair' lol. Pretty sure she was already doing this cut on me without the ponytails for years. I could never get ANYONE to do my hair like she did. She just knew how to cut my hair. She could just feel it. I have been cutting my own hair now for years (off and on since she died), since I got tired of paying people butt loads of money to eff it up. I figured I couldn't do worse, and I was right. I finally got to something I could live with using 4 ponytails, but this! This is even better! I absolutely adore this! I have never gone to school for this, so I don't know any tricks, just basics. But that 'point cut' trick was a giant OMG for me!! It really brings out my waves. Thank you thank you!! I wish I could add pictures it looks so good! 😘

I did this and it worked out perfectly! finally got my hair like ive wanted to for the past 2 years! the only hard part was sectioning by myself on top of my head trying to get it straight xd but worked out in the end. highly recommend people to just do it if they want to! I didnt cut as much as in the video as my hair was longer and i wanted to keep a lot of my lenght. this ponytail way is very good and safe as you have a lot of control on how you want it and customize! I did curtain bangs from brad mondos video for the bangs. :)

Fantastic! I always ask for shorter layers but I always get told they can't because of "Jamba jamba" (at least that is what I hear. Total nonsense) I've always had thick hair and just wanted some kind of depth/texture to it.

I wish you would do a hair cut for round faces. It would be nice to know what types would work best.

Love that cut! Perfectly layered

Ich hab es gewagt und es ist der Hammer. Ganz wichtig ist das einschneiden der Spitzen, damit man keine harte Kante bekommt. Ich hab dickes schweres Haar mit Wellen. Hatte vorne und hinten je 3 Zöpfe / Partien abgeteilt und dann immer 3 cm mehr abgeschnitten. Es ist perfekt gewordn. Der Übergang ist fließend und die Stufen gleichmäßig wild.

Yup, I look like a superstar now!. Thanks, I have long, super high-density silver lustrous hair and loved having the hidden ponytails to keep it all under control. It took 2 hrs with my big hair to do it but it was well worth it!

I DID IT!! After a large cup of coffee and a whole lot of contemplating!! I DID IT!! I followed Pauls instruction and focused on every detail and I was able to achieve a good result!! without redoing it!! it took me an hour to finish cutting my own hair. it was hard cause my hair is below shoulder length and I was having a hard time cutting the back pony cause I have to point it at the ceiling while cutting it. I'm a short girl with a long hair. imagine the how tiring it was to keep my hands up and making sure I was holding my hair as steadily as i could for a long time. but wolf hair cut was a success!!!

Advice from a fellow pro stylist: If you’re considering a cut like this for poker straight hair, try the butterfly cut first. This cut done by amateurs will probably turn out too choppy and not look right. It’s difficult to blend your own long hair. Poker straight hair will need lots of blending. Better to try the butterfly first or go to a pro. 😊

Thanks for your advice, I think I won't do it, my hair style is like jennifer aniston hair as it is now, I just want a few more front layers in, the ponytail hair cut I did once, only taking a inch off, thank god I did as the layers with that cut started to short in the very front, instead of starting under the chin they were around the nose / mouth. I've grown them down to under the chin, so maybe I should leave it be.

Amazing!

You should cut off the bottom about 3 inches, it's too thin & looks out of place
