How to Easily Do a Wolf Cut With Curtain Bangs at Home
Want to learn how to do a wolf cut with curtain bangs? Well, you’ve come to the right place! This "wolf cut" hairstyle is so trendy at the moment. It's an easy way to cut your own hair with layers - much easier than a regular haircut. Plus, the DIY curtain bangs are pretty easy too.
Whether you're looking to cut your own hair because salons are closed or you just want to save time and money, I'll show you how to do a wolf cut with this step-by-step guide.
Tools and materials:
- Hair scissors
- Comb
- Hairbrush
- Scrunchie
- Rubber band
1. Analyze the cut
Before you go ahead and do the wolf cut, just have a quick look at the style. It is trimmed all the way down the side, and then it drops at the bottom.
Also, for me, I like that my hair alongside my face stops at my jawline - it's very flattering.
2. Do the wolf cut
Start by combing your hair all the way forward, as shown.
Then tie your hair right on the front of your head. This is called a unicorn ponytail.
Pull your hair forward and snip off your desired length.
If there’s hair around the front that’s falling - that’s ok! First, snip the longer bits and then the shorter ones.
Now, go right in there and snip it off. Because I cut my hair recently, I’m just getting rid of the dead ends.
Now, turn your hand horizontally, and point-cut your hair.
Undo your elastic and let your hair down. Can you see my bottom layer is freshly cut?
Part your hair, start right above your ear, and go all the way around.
Now, tie your top section, as shown.
Here you can see that I have around an inch of dead ends to trim.
Cut off the dead ends and then finish it off with a point cut. Point cutting is great as it gets rid of the blunt line
3. Cut your bangs
Pull a side piece from your bangs straight forward, and cut your desired length. Remember to cut up the side and then point-cut it. Repeat this on the other side and all around the frame of your face.
4. Razor the sides (optional)
I don’t like a heavy bulk on the sides, and if that’s the case with you, then go ahead and razor down the parts that create that bulkiness. For this, open your scissors, and slide it down the length of your hair, as shown. Don’t snip; just slide it down.
