1. Cutting Layers

You should start by brushing the hair thoroughly to get rid of any tangles or knots. Once you are satisfied with the combing, flip your head over and brush the hair into a perfect ponytail at the top of the forehead. Use a hair tie to secure the hair in one place as you do the cutting for the wolf cut.

Holding the hair in a ponytail makes it easy to cut the layers than when the hair is all over the head. Directing all the hair forward gives you the opportunity to create layers of different lengths throughout the head with one simple cut.

In situations where the hair isn’t sufficiently long to place in a solitary braid. You can work with half-top ponytails but ensure you take all the hair from the sides upward.

• Snip off some length using cutting scissors

While trimming the hair, you are expected to pull it forward and keep it in that particular situation in the meantime.

While doing the trimming, you ought to be exceptionally cautious in light of the fact that the principal piece of hair you trim decides the hair length you will keep.

In the cases where you want to leave relatively long hair, you should only cut around 5 cm of hair off from the end, and if you want to leave short hair, you can trim up to 10cm off the end.

When you put the hair up, the first cut will determine how long the hair left is from the scalp.

• Point trim the hair vertical to thin it out

Whenever you are finished with the underlying hair style, you understand that the closures of the hair look obtuse. Use cutting scissors while they are pointed upwards into the hair to fill in some texture to the ends. 

By repeatedly opening and closing the scissors to snip off some little hair, you are able to add some weight and texture to the layers of hair.

• Let the hair down and part it from the middle

Since you have created the base layer of the wolf cut from the first cut, you can now let all the hair down and part it carefully from the middle. 

When the hair is out of the braid, you will understand that the hair at the back is longer while the one close to the ears is the briefest.

At this stage, if you realize that the hair is not short enough to your liking, you can put it back into a ponytail and cut it until you reach the desired length. 

As you keep trimming the hair, you ought to be extremely cautious since you generally have an opportunity to do however much trimming that you need, yet you can’t stick back what you have already cut.

2. Cutting the Curtain Bangs

• Section some portion of hair into a small triangle on  the forehead

You ought to find the spot of the head on the temple where the bending starts and part some hair into a little triangle.

• Direct the portioned hair to the right and cut diagonally

Squeeze the hair you have partitioned between your fingers and direct it to the right half of the brow. Painstakingly slice the parts slantingly to make the bangs of the wolf cut. Style the bangs until you are happy with the last look.
