I couldn't do it and so I showed my 15 year old autistic son and asked him to do it, and he nailed it! He's never ever cut hair before but I knew he'd be okay as he has such an eye for detail! I am super proud right now! My hair was half way down my back. I didn't ask him to do those final texturing bits because I wanted it more raw. Thanks so much for showing us this! 😍
that's so nice!!! You have a little talented man overthere 😊😊😊❤️
Good job to your talented son!!
I'm an aspie in my 20s and I've also been practicing my own haircuts. I bet your son's doing an excellent job :D
That's awesome! Good for both of you!!! ❤❤🎉🎉

Last time I went to a stylist I asked for this haircut. I went in with mermaid hair and came out with The Karen. I was absolutely mortified. I'm now going to attempt to do this on myself, for free. Thanks for this video.
What’s The Karen? Sounds like something I should def avoid….
@@Winters.C also known as a "call the manager" cut. hideous.
@@Winters.C you know that show "jon and Kate plus 8" ? That lady's haircut😂
Ahhhh yes I am familiar now 🤣 definitely avoiding!!
Can imagine what it will look like doing it yourself And what exactly is the KAREN? the very popular, timeless Bob, that always looks amazing if it's cut right
I don’t ever comment ever never, but I was brave and did this cut on my waist length hair, and it’s absolutely perfect. Long in all the right spots, looks professional, I’m shocked and happy and had to share
I imagine my hairdresser shaking my head by the neck to set up my hair. Lol. I couldn't stop laughing. You're so funny. And very lovely
Omg I laughed too 😂😂😂
Everybody asks me where I cut my hair 😂 its the third time I use your technique! Love this
I did this to myself yesterday evening and I absolutely love it. So flattering and as I have naturally wavy hair it’s amazing, no styling needed. Air dried it looked amazing, just a little rose hip oil afterwards. Thank you ! I am autistic and a salon is a sensory nightmare for me 💇🏼♀️
My Wife spells her name the same as u .. rare spelling.. Kerry
was it hard to get the partings clean and cut the ponytails from the back of your head?
I'm glad it turned out well!!! I think I'm going to try it out 💖
How do you do it on yourself? I should pull the sections forward?
how do you cut the back of your own ponytail, not sure that seems possible for me. please advise
Really helpful tutorial. I cut my mom’s hair and it looks great! In this economy we gotta save wherever we can 😂 THANK YOU SIR
Danke, ich habe mir viel Geld erspart und sehe super aus. Das Schwierigste war für mich das Abteilen der Haare. Aber die Geduld hat sich gelohnt 👍
Love this cut. I have to tell you me and my 5 year old granddaughter was watching this together and you pulled her head off I never heard a scream so loud right in my ear. She's fine and we had a great laugh ty
thanks for a good laugh, poor baby I can imagine her shock 😂
😂😂😂
I’m a grown woman and I screamed too! 😂 I wasn’t ready!! 🤣🤣
I was a stylist for 7 years (and I've maintained a current license since 2006), this is such a great visual and descriptive explanation of not only an angled cut, but layers as well. Ensure that you do the point cutting at the end to blend and soften. Love this tutorial!
I did it!! Love it!!! My hair was mid back this was a big chop. Worth it!!! Im a licensed cosmetologist and yes yes yes for those that say he has no idea what he is doing, this is an actual cosmotology trick using the bands. He definitely knows what he is doing! To get the legnth right it helps to tie a band where you want the legnth then you can pull the pony in eye sight and then cut.
Wow.. now that actually works! Did hair for 15 years, now I stay home with two toddlers and don’t have time to get it cut by others. You just saved my thick hair an hour and a half of time each cut 😂 thank you so much. Wayyy quicker than sectioning a million times. Surprised it worked sooo flawlessly on my thick hair with minimum point cutting. Thank you so so much ❤
I tried this lastnight my hair has a natural wave and after doing this it has brought my natural wave back into my hair haven't had my hair cut since Feb last year and couldn't go to the hairdressers as I'm unvaxed you saved me thankyou so much my hair looks great and feels great
Unvaxxed = organic 😊
I have been cutting my own hair too, same reasons lol, gonna try this, shame we can't see a pic of yours! :)
From wich country are you plz ?
@@user-ui2fs6zf8z England I think
😲
I tried this for my naturally wavy hair and it’s the best cut I’ve had in years! It brought back the wave, took out weird “shelf layers” I had and Ifeel beautiful. Had no idea how to point cut and was scared but it’s terrific!
How do you do it on yourself? I should pull the sections forward?
So grateful for this video. I did this today on my hair.. it was not easy to do on yourself but I managed. I razor cut the edges as well as some channel cutting. I am very happy with the results even though it does not look exactly like this. I went to my hairdresser for this cut but it was all flat in the back with no roundness or volume to give that bob look.
My hair is pretty thin and because of that I hate going to the hairdresser... I followed your easy instructions and I love the extra volume this haircut gave me❤️ thank you
I'm not sure you'll see my comment but I was excited to read your comment. I have fine hair too. I've had this haircut before and I loved it. Unfortunately the cut was 200 bucks and that's not in my budget anymore. I was just wondering if you had any advice? Were you able to copy his instructions without any problems?
I have fine hair too, unfortunately nothing lasts. Within half an hour it's straight again. 😊
Oh yeah, hairdressers can be really cruel. One of my pet peeves at the hair dresser is also the chemicals they use and I hate breathing them in. I prefer much more natural ways.
I did this cut to myself. The key is Point cut and it looks awesome.
You saved my life! This was my haircut while I was in London. Back home (Brazil) for almost 2 years now, I’ve been in several hairdressers and they don’t know how to do this haircut properly. I tried myself today and looks good! Thank you soooooo much!
Thank you! Free hair cuts for life, from a mum who puts herself last 😅
Thank you so much for all the videos you put out! I've cut my hair the last two times and just cut my mom's, she is happier than ever! Not only have you saved us so much money, but I think I like it more now than I ever have in the salon! Thank you!
I cracked up so much when you took the mannequin of and shook it around violently. Great cut, and thorough video!
I juts did this cut on my self and I love it!!! Easy , fast and beautiful ❤
You brought back old memories of my sister-in-law. In the early 80's l heard about an easy way to cut a layered hair-cut. You laid on top of a table with your head hanging down and then you just cut it straight across evenly. It looked horrible, but of course we didn't think about the big wad of hair her boyfriend pulled out the back of her head. She wasn't mad, I never cut anybody's hair after that and we got a really BIG laugh out of it! I sure do miss her.
As a mom of 2 under 2 who doesn't have an active baby sitter you seriously saved my hair. I finally got it cut and colored two months ago and I ended up hating it but just assumed that I had to live in a pony tail until I could finally get it fixed, but this video definitely helped give it life again.
Thanks so much for this! I cut my hair last night using the pony tails and sectioning like you showed. This morning I cleaned up the layers after blowing it out. It's easier for me to see them on my own head with dry hair. I'm really happy with it! I started cutting my own hair when I was 14 so I'm a little bold. However, I don't have all the mirrors to see the back and sides of my head anymore. Sectioning took a LONG time. Those would have been really handy yesterday! I think maybe I should get some again.
I did this last night. Getting lots of compliments already! Everyone thought I got it professionally done! Thanks!! 🙌🙌
how did you style the front? I liked it better before it was smoother out
How did you cut it in back like this yourself? I want to try it but worried I can’t reach it.
I cut my mom's hair.. her hair is short and very fine.. the haircut came out so stunning ... thanks for the video
Just spontaniously tried this haircut on myself after the video showed up in my recommendations lol. I didn't cut it quite as short, but it still came out super nice. I am so happy :) Also I didn't blunt cut the sections, but did some point cutting while the hair was still in ponytails. Gave me the perfect texture i wanted
Im interested in doing it your way also, i just dont want the back section to be quite so short, did u achieve that as well?
He did point cutting too, dry
How do you do it on yourself? I should pull the sections forward?
@@sanforddavis1686 yep, i just didn't take off as much length 😊 it worked for me
@@brigittan3590 my hair is long enough i can kinda pull it above my head to see where I am cutting If you pull it like sideways/forward it might not be a straight cut. Maybe it helps to use two mirrors
Just did this cut for my daughter with 0.0% experience of cutting hair! Thank you!! 🥰
Great job! It’s surprising how many young stylists haven’t a strong understanding of the these basics…elevation, graduation and over direction. Keep on teaching 🙌
I couldn’t agree more 😉
I cut my hair right after I watched d vid. Thank you so much 😊 so happy and satisfied
You had me cracking up when you pulled off the head to give it a shake 🤣. Also, this is exactly what I needed about 6 hours ago when my husband was attempting to give me this haircut. It turned out ok but more blunt. I’ll use this when it in a few weeks when gets longer. Thanks!
Do you sometimes wish you could pull his head off and give it a shake?😂
What went wrong
Trying to be quiet, while everyone in my house sleeps, but dammit I laughed so hard when you took the head off! It was just so unexpected.
Also liked how she's suddenly wearing a flannel in the end. Did she get cold? Lol
Lol you’re daring letting your husband do the cut 🤣 I would never 🤣🤣 glad it worked out for you 😁 I’m trying this method this week 😃
I just did this haircut, as an attempt to fix a bad haircut (in my opinion) and it worked beautifully!! Thank you so much! You saved me a lot of time and money, since I don't have to see a new hairdresser.
Hi Paul As a retired hairdresser I'm very particular about my haircut. I usually do it myself with a little help from my sister. I have trouble getting the line correct, using this method of sectioning the hair with bands had never occurred to me until I came across your video. Thanks for sharing your expertise and your sense of humor! 👍😁
Your cat is so gorgeous 🥰, God bless it 😊
That center pony tail is the thing I was missing when cutting my own hair. This cut is so much easier than my layering method of pulling sections forward, add an inch, and cut. My crown hair was always a bit longer than I wanted. Thanks for the video.
Glad I could help!
Just did it today with my husband's help! Your videos never fail and have saved me SO much money haha! I also added some magenta and violet color to my dark brown hair. I'm in LOVE!
Watched this video a couple of times and even though I'm all thumbs I am very pleased the way it came out. I had been depressed about my hair lately and I am so glad I found your channel. THANK YOU
I hope you are feeling better. I have been feeling a bit that way myself. I'm gonna give this a try 💖
My husband helped me with this yesterday afternoon. It came out beautiful! My husband helps me cut my hair since it is easier for a second person to cut a straight line. This tutorial gave him confidence in what he was doing. He was impressed with the outcome as well! Thank you for the great tutorial!
Will diffinetly be doing this!!! I never go to a salon to cut my hair! I swear they see a pretty girl and there determined to butcher my hair! I Only 2 people my entire life have ever cut my hair properly! Love this! ❤️
I would never do the ponytail thing on a client but I think it’s a really good way of explaining elevation and distribution to juniors. Great job 👏🏽
hei, nice hair cut 😊you should show step by step how you divided it into ponytails sections🤗
Yes, please give a professional technique video on this hair cut!! I love using your salon techniques. I watch the pony tail videos first, then the professional salon videos. Thank you so much for free education!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for showing how to make waves with a flat iron. Super helpful!
This 100% works. I tried it on myself. Thank you very much Paul.
Love it! So simple but a sophisticated result. Once I learned to do ponytail cutting and then the refining bits I switched to that for my own and my daughters haircuts. Excellent results we never could get at the salons we tried. Well, I did get it at one salon many years ago, absolutely perfect haircut that looked spectacular even in a 60mph gale at the beach! Went back to the same salon the next time time but that amazing man had moved on and they refused to give me the info on where he went. I never ever found another stylist so good, sadly. Thank you for your great demos!
Great to hear Granny T
I followed your video to cut my cousin’s hair - it turned out fantastic! I liked it so well I then had her cut my hair and I absolutely love it. Thank you for helping those of us who are not hair stylists. 🙂❤️
Omg! I’ve just watched few videos on haircuts; butterfly long hair cut, and long bob layered cut. Couldn’t believe you’ve used the methods I have been using for years for cutting my hair.😃
Wish I could take my own head off like that to refine the back 😂 Lovely cut.
Omg! I just went for it with my husband’s assistance, following your simple directions. It turned out PERFECT!!! So simple!!! Thank you for your great video!!!!
I tried this today and it worked! I have thick, wavy hair and I took off about 5 inches. Thank you so much for this video!
Right! This video probably saved me at least £50...wanted to get a haircut but I am very scared to go to a salin after countless fails. Thank you!!
Have just cut my hair following your video. It is PERRRFECT and stylish! I have fired my hairdresser. Lol. Thanks a million. I have forwarded your video to all my friends who can't get out in this pandemic!
Wow! I've cut my own hair the past 2 years using a ponytail method, but I love the 3 layered approach you did here! Thanks for this, I love the style.
Same.
it's our second time doing this cut, my husband helped me every time. Thank you!!! we love it 🥰
Love it! Thank you for dispelling so much of the mystery around haircuts. If you are looking for video topics, short videos on the refining techniques you use, such as how to point cut, would be great. Also styling videos; I can't seem to master the blow dryer. 😆I also have crazy cowlicks, so learning how to either cut or style working with natural wave patterns would be indispensable. Thank you!!!
EASY BUT BRILLIANT AND VERY ORIGINAL TECHNIQUE. SIR , COMPLIMENTS . YOU HAVE A CLASS. YOU ARE TALENTED ON THE SAME TIME GENEROUS GENTLEMAN. GOD BLESS YOU. BORIS FROM SOFIA BULGARIA. BY THE WAY , IN BULGARIA WE HAVE NOT SO MUCH PEOPLE AND CARE DRESSERS LIKE YOU .
I love these videos! I am also a stylist who cuts my own hair and I understand the principle behind this that makes it work. It’s a great way to get it done fast! I do a shag cut on my hair and since I found your two pony tail technique, I always do it on myself that way now! I also point cut into it to refine at the end. Beautiful!
I’ve already shared this to a friend who had a similar style done. It’s gorgeous and I really appreciate you elevating the learning curve for those of us who need it. ❤️
Thank you soooo much for this! I used this to clean up the bob I gave myself a couple months ago and I’m so happy with how it turned out! So easy too!
I love it, the simplicity you have when explaining everything, thank you for your time and patience in explaining everything 🌟🥂🌟
I’ve been cutting my own hair for years and could never get it quite right. This was perfection and I only had to even out a couple pieces in the front. I have wavy curly hair and it’s very thick. This looks awesome 😎 very happy and saving this video thanks !!!! ❤
So I just tried in on myself and guys… it’s not as easy as it looks 😅 At first it looked like a hot mess but after some chaotic blow drying and even more chaotic pointcutting, I just love the final result! My soft, fine hair is now bouncy and has an amazing volume. There really is so much movement and even minor mistakes (and trust me, I’ve made some) look good. This is going to be my go to haircut now, thank you so much!
Thank you so much! This is the best technique I found so far. I'm not a professional, but cut my hair by my own, and this video is very helpful, it makes it much more easier than I did before. Thanks 😄
I just tried this technique on myself and IT WORKED PERFECTLY! I didn't even have to do any post-trimming... it just looked amazing. If I could post a pic I would but I can't. I will keep this trick handy. Thank you!
Really good tutorial and simple, no-fuss way of explaining for newbie hairdressers - good job!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I am a DIY hairstylist with 20+ years of practice/trial and error. Great video, I just searched and found your tutorial and did exactly step by step. Easy and it came out WONDERFUL with little need to further trim or shape. Xoxo
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this perfect tutorial. After many stressful and disappointing visits to the salon, I decided to cut my own hair and have been doing so for 7 years! I wanted this exact haircut and tried this method. I LOVE MY HAIR!
Its beautifull, I dont speak english but I understand all, thank you!
Every DIY cut I’ve done off however, you’ve managed to give instruction much like extracting essence of a beautiful bouquet 💐. The cut turned out on point! It leaves room for error and makes it chic. Excellent work and THANK YOU ☺️.
Beautiful haircut will definitely use it on my clients. Thanks for clean and clear tutorial ❤️
I did it and it looks amazing in curly hair, I am tired of asking this and looked like Hagrid form Harry Potter, Thank you❤.
Gracias, eres un amor.. lo hice a mi hija y me quedo super
Thank you for this video! The only video that shows how the layers look when connected and dried. Exactly what i needed to see having straight hair. Excited to try this later 🥳
Cutting behind my head wasn't easy, but definitely worth the trouble because this natural style is exactly what I wanted. It was a relief to be rid of so much bulk yet still have enough to pull back in a small ponytail. It was pretty awkward for me to do but it looks great, and you are so kind to help us out with styling our own hair! And this is the shortest I've ever worn my hair, yet I don't miss it at all!
How did you cut the back of your head?
I did this and I love my hair!! Exactly how I wanted it! I asked for this similar look in a salon one time, and she wasn't even close. I did it myself and got the look I wanted 😍 thank you!!
Funny, lol
This is the prettiest bob I've ever seen, it's so beautiful I love it!! Totally trying this!!
Thank you for making this video! This is THE HAIRCUT I've been trying to get stylists to do on my hair for the longest time and now I know how to ask for it in terms they can understand. Yay! It's one of the few haircuts that seem to actually work for my super thick coarse hair with lots of density and volume at the crown. I would LOVE to see the section-by-section salon floor technique version of this haircut! Pretty please! :)
I had this style a few years ago. Loved it! I really want to go back to it now! ❤️
Can’t thank you enough for this. Was overseas and in desperate need of a haircut. I had ZERO confidence due to language barriers that I could explain what I wanted and decided to try this. I was super nervous, but figured if I screwed up, my stylist could fix it when I got home. It was as close to perfect as it could be. When I finally made it to the salon when I got home, my stylist couldn’t believe it. I showed her (and 3 of the other stylists who were there) your video. They were fascinated. The owner came over and said, “put that damn thing away before you put me out of business!” Laughing… She then said, “Everyone knows Watts is a genius!” Thank you again for being so generous with your skill and your talent ❤
And everyone clapped..
I absolutely loved this and the end result. I would love to see the "salon version" for this cut please xx
Thank you! Your tutorial is super easy to follow. Finally went from waistline hair to this. Sure is a relief taking care of those tons of hairs!!
I love this! I’ll have to watch many times to get it,maybe I can get my daughter to do it. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so very much! For teaching us ❤ Salon costs are too much for me so I’m grateful to you 😊 I’m having so much fun 🤩
Hola a todos, me encantó tu técnica. Gracias por compartir saludos 🇲🇽🙏
Absolutely love your tutorials…so clear and cleanly made. Thank you.
Thanks! Worked great once I got my parts sorted out. Added some curtain bangs. Thank you Paul! Love your videos & your instruction! ☺️💇♀️
Thought the end style was a real model! 😳 What a great technique! Wish they taught these types of methods in cosmetology school. Love the cut, color and style! Great tutorial!
OMG...fabulous! The extreme ease (pony tail approach) blended with an absolute accurate outcome. I've been 'lusting' after this exact look for an ornery, cantankerous wig I have been struggling with. You nailed it! Thank you. 👍👍👍💯
thank you, that's exactly the haircut I was looking for, I'm tired of the long straight look, everybody said I look like I'm in the 1900s, so I think this is going to bring me into the century, something modern and flattering
Absolutely LOVED your video, the style came out beautifully. My husband and I cut my hair about 11/2 weeks ago and I so wish I knew then what you just showed me. I'll just have to wait a few weeks to give it a try. Thanks so much. Luv u, Karen
😮 I always loved the bob cut , this one is beautiful
Perfect! Thank you so so much. Changed my wifes life
Great vid I’ve been asking for this for my last two haircuts, only to come out with something different even though I gave them a picture. You make it with look easy so I tried it on myself and I’m happy with the results. Thank you
i used this technique the other day, Great tutorial and I'm still shocked and amazed that I could do this at home by myself AND have such great results.
FINALLY, thank you for making this so much easier...
I just followed this tutorial and my hair looks PERFECT! Thanks so much!
wow! although I have yet to perfect this, I love this technique. Tried this awhile ago. Better than my usual "mulan" way of hair-cutting 😂
That came out really beautiful. I have always loved that haircut style :) I have had mine cut to my jaw line in the front and shorter in the back and it has always come out super cute and easy to wear either straight or curly. And ive even been asked if I was a celebrity when I was in Miami at a boat show for a weekend by hotel staff and was so flattered. My hair always looks good with this and shorrer bobs. LOVE THEM and you did and AWESOME job!
Love these unique haircuts & soO nice to have someone explain the maths of hairdressing!
I didn't get as much of an invert as I had hoped, but I'm broke right now and needed a trim desperately. This was fast and easy, and gave me the results I needed to hold me over. Thank you!!
