I have never in my LIFE cut my hair myself and I saw that you posted this and decided tonight was the night and now I have a gorgeous wolf cut. This is amazing, you’re amazing. Thank you!
Was it hard to do I would be afraid i would mess up
@@juliecolon6081 no! I expected it would be because I have never cut my own hair before but I just went for it and it was actually so easy. I cut it initially and wanted the layers shorter so I went back and was able to regather everything to trim up again. You can do this!
aww Faith!!!! That's so great to hear, I'm so glad you love it! You're so very welcome, I'm glad so many people are getting great results from this cut x
@@faithriggsbee7143what kind of scissors did you get
I did this cut for the second time tonight. It's pretty much fool proof and works so well on my 3a curls - which are sadly thinning with age. This evening I was about two steps away from making an appointment for a keratin treatment because I had it with my hair. I took a deep breath and remembered that usually when I feel like this, it's time for a haircut... and it's been a while since I had one (six months?). For those who haven't given this a go yet, take your time sectioning. Use a rat tail comb to help. Section, check with a handheld mirror, adjust, repeat, repeat again... and then cut. You won't be disappointed. This free-99 DIY cut is better than 90% of the curly specialty cuts I've had!
Omg thank you for this! I'd been doing the unicorn cut since forever even though it gave me a slight case of triangle head. I always thought my hair was wavy - turns out it's not. After doing your cut, my hair boinged up from 2b to 3b/3c! I guess I needed more layers than the unicorn provides. This shape is much rounder and sproing-ier.
Thanks again!
Can’t find anyone to give my hair a really good curly cut so I’ve been cutting the front for myself. Needed my whole head done & tried this. This really worked well and I feel the ripples of curls in the back where I really needed it-it had felt flat & lifeless. This will be my go-to haircut from now on. Thank you love! ❤
Just done this cut and can honestly say it is the BEST DIY cute I've ever done (been cutting my own hair for around 4 years) and is actually better than any cut I've had at the hairdressers as well, thankyou!
oh my GOODNESS!!!! That's such a massive compliment, thanks so much Megan! I'm so glad you love it xx
Cut my hair using this tutorial and it turned out great :)
I was able to keep the length but get the layers I wanted
Simply gorgeous!
Wow, your hair is so beautiful! Fantastic video. Thank you!
I am going to do this, this week. Gotta get supplies.
This looks great!!
Just gave myself this cut! Love it! So easy to do! Thanks for the tutorial, it perfectly shows how to accomplish this!
I can’t wait til my latest haircut grows out I’m going to do this!
LOVE THIS!!! Thanks for filming this video and for all of the tips with the layers.
thanks so much Macaila xx
I just did the haircut and it reminded me HOW THICK your beautiful hair is! I sectioned my hair off and it was literally a fraction of what you got 😂 My hair is drying now and I'm confident that it will turn out great!
yes, I do try to stress to people (and hairdressers) that I have a phenomenal amount of hair!
As a hairdresser for many, many years AND UBER THICK hair, i have never cut my own hair!😮. I tried and was quite pleased! Curls are new to me, post menopause. Thanks for tutorial!
Wow! Absolutely GORGEOUS!! Thank you for sharing, lovey! 💜
thanks Angela. x
Just did this today, very happy with the result! I only cut the ends off as my hair is only shoulder length but it looks way more full and healthier! I have fine curly hair. I used a pointy thing to get the parting though because I just couldn't get it right with my fingers. Thanks as always Gabriella, you always give the best tips and I love a minimal waffle, straight to the point tutorial! ❤️
I am so excited to try this!!! I have been wanting to find a DIY video for a while now and here it is!! It looks perfect! Thank you 🤗
yay! Let me know how you get on x
❤❤❤ My curls have new life!
IT WORKED THIS IS AMAZING!
I did this and it was very nice, thank you.
WHAT? OH MY GOODNESS.
THE SHAPE IS AMAZING ,FEMININE, VICTORIAN LIKE AND GORGEOUS. I HAVE NOT BEEN TO A SALON IN YEARS BECAUSE I NEVER GET WHAT I WANT.
I CAN DO THIS MYSELF. THIS IS SO EASY.
A MONEY SAVER TOO.
THANK YOU
I'm so jealous. You have so much hair and it's gorgeous? 😍
Omg how stunning! I think that’s the best cut we’ve seen on you!!!
RIGHT?! I think so too. Of course, now I want to go shorter, much shorter. Isn't it always the way 🤣
I didn't know it had a name but this is the exact haircut i have been doing for a while now and i can safely say i will never go back to a hair salon. My hair is 2B and very long, the biggest lenght (at the middle of the soft "V") goes down to my butt and this haircut still works really well, ends up looking like mermaid hair 🥰 glad to have found your tutorial so i can revisit it and check if i'm doing everything right next time, thank you!
A year late in responding to this but we're you able to maintain your length while having these stunning layers? I'm hoping to follow this cut but my hair is also butt length and I'd really like to preserve as much length as possible
Oooohhhhhh -- I've been so excited for this video/blog post! Totally worth the wait (can't lie though -- your little teases about your hair were killing me! :) ) -- you did an amazing job with the editing and the blog post is perfectly detailed (but not overwhelming). Thank you so much! I found you 3-4 months ago and it was your DIY haircut post from a few years ago that inspired me to cut my hair for the very first time (something I never thought I had the skill to do). I loved your shorter cut so much that I ditched the doubts and said, "What the hell?!?!? I'm going to go for it!" I did it (no jack and coke necessary) and loved the result. I've had my hair cut by $$$ money pros and curly hair specialists but I'd never been truly blown away. Well, I was after doing it myself. I was thrilled. Now I'm going to try this cut. I have no doubt I'm going to love it. I absolutely love it on you! It's (and you) gorgeous! Thank you so much for all that you do. Thanks to you, I feel empowered to turn my curly locks into a masterpiece. Your tips, videos and blog posts have been wildly helpful. My hair has never looked better. Thank you!
oh. my. GOODNESS! What a lovely comment and such kind words. Thank you SO much, I truly appreciate it. You know, I still think about that first DIY haircut you mentioned, and I'm actually going to go short again, much shorter. I'm not sure if I'm going to go quite as short as I did then, but something in between this waterfall wolf cut and that other cut. I hope you love your results from following this DIY tutorial, and thanks for all the love on my blog post - my blog is still my biggest baby and I love pouring my passion into it. x
This is amazing!! Great technique 😁
thanks so much Ella! x
Just tried this today. Awesome cut! Thanks so much! ❤
you're so welcome! I'm thrilled it worked out so well. It really is a great cut!
Did it today..your Hair is so beautiful and healthy🥰❣️❤️👌
I use this video each time I cut my hair! Thank you so much!
That's so great to hear! You're so welcome!
I did it, I cut off over 25 cm! :D I wanted a big change!
I have wavy, very thick and heavy (2B) hair, it was with outgrown layers down to my bum and over all it was just too much. The waterfall wolf cut turned out so cool! I had some problems to do the sections because I have to hold a mirror in my hand (I have to install something, so I have my hands free) but this looks like a pretty good haircut. Everything falls into everything!
I had hairdressers done my hair, and it was not this nice a lot of times because they just could not or were not in the mood to handle my hair. Getting the layers correct and well proportioned is everything with thick, long hair. I totally love this!
THANK YOU for showing what this cut looks like styled and up in a high and low ponytail! I wear a high pony tail at work and i am looking for this exact shape!! Instant subscribe for this video alone!❤
aww thank you so much! Yeah, for me it's a huge thing if my. hair doesn't look good up in a high and low pony tail as I don't wear my hair down every day but still want it to look good and hang right when it's up. So thank you for noticing and appreciating it. I wasn't sure if anyone else would get it at the time, but so glad it did! Thanks for the subscribe x
Beautiful
Quite similar to what I’ve been doing for years except I add a 4th for shorter bangs.
I am delighted with how this turned out for me. I have been doing the unicorn cut for a couple of years, but find that it makes the tope of my head flat and then the sides fluff out, ending in scraggly curls at the bottom. The waterfall cut gave me much more defined curls that are even over my whole head, and when I tie it up for work, I have enough wee curly bits around my face to soften it nicely.... Am definitely a convert to this hair cut!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful ❤
This was the best cut I ever did myself! Amazing and thank you!
That's incredible!!! YAY! No better feeling that a hair cut you love right?!
omg! I love it! definitely trying this because I cannot find a stylist to cut my hair properly in the last 5 years. Thank you for creating the video!
yay! Let me know how you get on x
WOW, you hair is BEAUTIFULLL!!! 😍😍😍
Thank you!!
Girl!!!!!! You have changed my life!!! I tell everyone about you! You are such a blessing!!! I just sent this video to my stylist... I don't trust myself!!! Hahaha
JULIA!!!! Thank you so much, such a lovely compliment xx
I've watched so many DIY tutorials and decided to try this one today and having never cut my own hair before I was nervous!. I absolutely love it and it really does work! I have wavy, frizzy fine hair and I cut about an inch off, blew it dry and it looks amazing. I love the face frame and the whole shape of the haircut is gorgeous. Thank you so much 😍
so great to hear! This cut creates a really lovely shape x
I’ve done this cut a few times now (video is great) it always turns out great! Today I messed up a bit and cut my 2nd (crown) layer shorter than I meant , so I opted to not do the last (3rd) cut. I think it still worked out - we’ll see more when it dries 😂
Great tutorial!
thanks so much!
Ich tried it. I have around 2b waves but like to blow out my hair. I it. I wearing my part more on the side thats why i redid my bangs. But i really love love love it!
Thank you for this ! My hair is saved ❤️❤️❤️
argh! The ultimate compliment, you're so very welcome x
I so did this to my very long curly hair and turned out amazing, better than the normal wolf cut I had, I love it!! 😍
how many centimeters did you take each layer ??
I just impulsively did this to my own hair (I've been dissatisfied with it for a while and figured since I've been struggling extra bad with my anxiety lately that I should switch things up, like when people are trying to get over a breakup or another challenging time lmaooo), I'm waiting for it to dry to see the result.
I was worried because my hair is a lot longer than hers, but even though the layers don't go as high I think it'll still look good! I was afraid to chop off too much, I figure I can always go back later if I decide I want to try the face-framing layers she has.
Always so happy to see your content, Gabriella! This was well explained and well shot. I also have read your blog post :)
Any specific tips for someone whose hair currently falls to their shoulders?
Hey Elissa! Thank you so much. I've actually had a few people send me pics of their shoulder length hair after doing this haircut and they've had great results!
I did this yesterday and it turned out great! I certainly had worse professional haircuts so I am very pleased. Might honestly never go to a hairdresser again. I followed this method to a T except that I kept my bangs. The bangs could have turned out better but that was entirely my fault. I will do this haircut again in a week or two and do a bigger chop. Thanks so much Gabriella! 💐
Amazing Mirlinda!!!! Yeah, if I want to go much shorter I'll most likely go to a hairdressers, but if I'm going to keep my hair this length or longer, I'm definitely going to just keep doing this DIY haircut. It's honestly the best cut I think I've ever had! So glad you feel the same about yours x
I just did this cut on my wavy mostly 2b hair (with some 2c ringlets mixed in).
I have minimum skill when it comes to hair cutting, like I cut my own bangs a few times in my life and that’s pretty much it.
So I was terrified 😂 but it turned out absolutely beautiful ❤❤❤ I’m way happier with how this came out than when I go to a salon.
I started with dry hair after wash day, I had just applied products, styled with my denman brush and let it air dry.
I did not re-wet my hair, so I cut it dry, because wetting stretches my waves out and I felt it would be more natural if I cut my hair in its usual wave pattern when it’s dry.
I did spray my hair with water when I got to the very last section of face framing layers, I guess that required some precision and wetting it just made it easier to be more precise.
Also: the first time around I was too scared to cut off too much so I cut off a tiny bit at first to see if I liked how my hair would fall, loved it, and went back and re-sectioned my hair and cut off more “dramatic” pieces to really get that shape.
My hair feels amazing and bouncy and fresh now. ❤ go raibh míle maith agat
AH-MAZING!!!! That's so so lovely to hear. I know so many people who just use this cut now and don't go near a hair salon and love the results too.
Beautiful I would be afraid 😱 to do this
Beautiful! I'm going to try it on my next DIY cut. I love the hairstyle you have on the video clip to the right with the looser waves. Would you show us how you created that look? Your curls are stunning, by the way!
thanks so much! Yes absolutely I'll film that next I think. I do have a video of me using the InStyler Max to do a similar look, it's up on my RUclips channel if you want to check that out
I have disconnected layers
And after I grow my hair out
I m doing this asap
The only cut that will look good on me I believe!!!!
I did a cut like this during lockdown and it really turned out well. When I got to see my stylist (my roots were shocking) she told me it was a very good cut. I liked that I eliminated the triangle/wedge shape that was unappealing. My curls were a bit tighter, definitely lasted longer, and I used way less product after the cut. My hair drying time was really reduced.
I did this cut during lockdown also. And I loved it
amazing!
Can you please show how you styled your hair at the beginning of the video????
It looked gorgeous!!?
you have beautiful hair...
This is how I cut my curly hair.
thank you so much for this!!! i'm so excited to try it out. is there any way to soften the V shape into a more rounded shape? i like when my longer pieces look very dense 😩
I tried it yesterday. It was kind of a nightmare because every time I had to do a new section my hair would get horribly tangled (maybe it's so damaged?), so I had a hard time with that, even aplying leave in conditioner to smooth the hair. But... the results were really good! I'm really liking the shape so far.
amazing! I was just going to say, if it's really knotty and tangled leave in some of your conditioner and maybe even add a leave in conditioner too if you need to. Then the Denman Paddle Brush I used in the video is AMAZING and the BEST for detangling. But so glad the results turned out so well x
@@CurlMaven update: it's been two months and I still haven't cut my hair again, and it still looks quite good! I want to leave my hair longer and so far this haircut has allowed me to let it grow
@@elisazolo5762 oh that's so good to hear! Yes, the signs of a good haircut are a) if it grows out well and b) if it looks good in a ponytail x
Oh my how gorgeous! You are stunning and have such a great eye, I only wish you could do it for me! :)
Thank you so much!!
Tried the wolf cut as per your previous video. Has definitely created some body but unfortunately my hair is very thin so not very effective
Saving because I believe I could actually do it. How does it work with thinning density?
Thanks for sharing this! I've tried a unicorn cut and I liked the results but I think I need more layers so I'll be doing your version next. I just have one question - if you part your hair on the side do you need to do anything differently?
This is a beautiful cut on you. But I have a question.
How many inches are you cutting off from the first ,second and third layers? How do you determine that?. I have 3B curly hair
Stunning! I'm going to try this on myself later 🤞🏻 One question, when you describe holding the hair vertically, it looks horizontal to me, so I'm missing something. Is it more how you approach with the scissors? Thanks Gabriella! 🙏
sorry Ruth, I mean how I'm holding my hair when I'm cutting it....hope that makes sense?
This looks like a brilliant technique!. I've never had a "curly" haircut and for someone who doesn't have a curly hairdresser in a 100 mile radius, I'll be excited to try this!. I've always found the hairdresser doesn't listen or doesn't understand and I end up with a flat cut basically, no waterfall effect.
Will this only work on longer hair?. Mine is just last my shoulders when it's curly..
Thank you for this precious gem!. 😘😘😘😘
☮️♥️🌅
hey Donna! Thanks so much, no this technique isn't just for long hair. I've had quite a few people send me pictures of the same cut on their shorter, shoulder length hair and they've had great results and it looks amazing! It's all about those sections x
Absolutely beautiful results Gabriella I'm just scared to do this haircut because I'm afraid I'm going to have a mullet because when I do the unicorn cut I get a mullet that's why I've never done it ever since
Hey Tina! This cut won't give you a mullet because of the way it's sectioned off, but if you don't want it too short around your face, tie each ponytail section a couple of inches further back from your hair line at your forehead. Hope that makes sense!
@@CurlMaven Thank you so much I will be trying it out for sure now ❤️
looking forward to trying this - Unfortunately I just kind of randomly cut my hair in slight desperation haha .. Thank you! Great, clear instructions . Question - you were saying we could include bangs or shorter layers around face - Would we do this but in four even sections? Or split the last section into two or.. Thank you !
The third section I take (the ones from the tip of the brow/temple) is the layer to create bangs and shorter layers around the face. If you don't want that, don't take that third section.
Hey Ms,
Can I know will it be good on short hair that reaches shoulder (a bit below shoulder)?
Hi. How do you cut your perimeter?
Hi Gabriella! It seems that the link to the scissors is no longer working. Do you have a different link for them? And/or is there a brand you recommend?
Do this cut work for 3B curly hair?
Is this different from the triple unicorn cut?
Thank you for a great video! I also want to try this cut, but just want to know how do I maintain my layers while also growing my hair? Do I do the same cut like every 3 months or so? Thanks so much!🌹
Hey, yeah you can do this cut every 3-4 months to retain the shape and layers x
@@CurlMaven thanks so much!🌻
How do you get it even with thick hair? I did it and even though i smoothed everything out its like the comb wouldnt even go through the ponytail all the way, kind of hard to know if all the hairs are where they are supposed to be. Now some bits are longer than others on the opposite side, luckily its not too noticable but on the front it is so I had to spend some time tweaking it. I have heard the ponytail cuts dont come out even so ill probably just redo it the more meticulous way.
I've been cutting my hair for about 10 years using a creaclip. Last time I cut it I used did Curly Tay's version of a wolf cut but used my creaclip for the bottom layer. I want to try this cut now, but I'm wondering if it's necessary to do it wet? I've been cutting dry with great results.
You can do it dry if you prefer x
Quick question, what is the significance of cutting the hair parallel to the ground( elevated away from the face) when doing the unicorn portion of the cut? I’ve seen a lot of people cut their hair using the unicorn method but most do it by pulling the ponytail straight down in front of their face
it's moreso because it's a DIY haircut and you can see what you're doing by pulling it forward like that, rather than pulling it up and cutting what you see in the reflection in the mirror. Also, if your hair is really long, you may not be able to reach the ends if you pull it directly up.
Tried this last night hoping it would work but I'm not sure it worked for me. I have a LOT of hair and a side parting and it sort of created a very heavy shelf at the front on the side where my hair parts, I must admit I have had this issue with pro cuts @ hairdressers but they usually then have to go in and spend quite some time thinning this section out or it does literally look like its been cut blunt horizontally across. Not a bad cut but don't think this will work for everyone 😫 x
Aww I'm so sorry to hear that!
3:14 if you wanted more layers could you essentially cut another layer that is between the end of your chin and your jawline? 4:09 And one between your jawline and eyebrow? Would that look bad?
I'm not quite sure what you mean. If you take too many sections to create layers, you'll end up with a very round shape instead of the long layered waterfall shape I'm creating with this cut
Can this be done with dry hair, cutting curl by curl instead of straight across and then point cutting?
no, this isn't a curl by curl cut.
How does this work for shorter hair? My longest layers are at the base of my neck.
you wouldn't be able to do the first cut if your hair is at the base of your neck. But you'd be able to do the second and third cuts to create shape and volume. I've had people with short hair and a similar length to what you're describing send me pics of their results and they've all looked amazing!
Could I stop after the second section if I didn’t want the pieces around my face to be so short?
correct, yes. If you don't want the shorter layers around the face or the baby bangs, only do the first and second cuts.
I need more hair on my head, dammit!
Does it work for thin wavy hair?❤
Yes it does!
Does this work for shorter hair?
yes! you may not be able to do the first section if your hair is really short, but the second and third sections can be used to create shape and volume. I've had other people with much shorter, shorter than shoulder length hair send me pics of their hair following this cut/video and the results have been amazing!
♥️♥️♥️💰💰💰🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
How does this haircut look when the hair is straightened? Anyone who’s tried this? I’m scared it will look weird when my hair isn’t worn curly lol
it looks totally fine when straight, if you look at my website www.curlmaven.ie or my Instagram instagram.com/curlmaven you'll see it straight and it looks absolutely fine thanks to the blending of the layers. They're not choppy and chunky because we're not cutting it curl by curl
I don’t know if you’re still monitoring this comment section…I’d love to try this, but I’m a bit confused. On the second and third layer you keep saying to hold the hair vertically, but it still looks like the same horizontal position you used in the first layer. Am I missing something?
yeah so you're still holding the hair in between your index and middle finger, but when it's horizontal you're holding it with your fingers horizontally, and when you're holding in vertically, you're fingers are at a diagonal with your finger tips pointing away from you and upwards. I hope that helps explain it
@@CurlMavenoh, you mean the fingers are horizontal/vertical, not the ponytail! Makes sense now! Thanks so much for replying!
I've watched many of these tutorials and no one ever says how much they cut from each layer.
You can see....I take about an inch and a half from the first section, then blend in the rest of the cuts
Am i the only man here? Hahahah i've cut my hair in similar way, but now i'm going to try to cut like that.
it's not a gender specific cut or style don't worry 😉
