Layereing your own hair by cutting a pony tail?

hi, i heard that if you put your hair up in a really high pony tail and cut straight across then when you put it down u get choppy layers,



im going to the hairdressers to get it cut into choppy layers but if that way works then i might just do that myself instead, anyway has any one done it ? does it work and do u have any pics of what it came out like ??

No!



Dont cut your hair



Thats the worst hair experience anyone can do with their own hair



Trust me



I've been there, done that, regretted it.



Go to the hairdressers and say you want choppy layers, trust me, you will not regret it



As a trained hairdresser myself, i know how these things work



Putting it high up and cutting along wont make it come out in layers you think it would



Because all your strands are different sizes, so one clump could amount very short and the other could go really edgy



So go to the hairdressers

Well /ACTUALLY/ you can, if it's a loose pony tail and you have the ponytail on top of you head, I've done it and I loved it. Report It

If you do you'll be heading for disaster.. Go to the salon!



Oh I know they bore you with drivvelling small talk, but at least you'll get a decent cut..

It does work - you need to twist your hair aswell and then cut it. The only thing is that it doesn't change the length, so you may still have split ends etc.

If you bend right over and brush your hair straight down and then cut it you will get a natural layer.

If you can afford the hairdresser, then give it a go. The worst thing that can happen is you have to let them fix it!



Good luck.

Bad idea. Better to go to the hairdresser's and get it done properly.



Layereing your own hair by cutting a pony tail?

In all honesty...i just wouldn't. I mean, tidy up your own hair cut with some little sharp scissors...BUT LEAVING THE CUT AND STYLE TO A PROFESSIONAL. Do you want to look like your lil brother cut your hair? NO



Layereing your own hair by cutting a pony tail?

Yes. this is a basic layered look....i have done it many times in my 54 yrs on Earth. BUT...now a days they teach cosmetologists better ways to do 'choppy layers' and they have better scissors and razor cutters with choppy edges for different layered looks, so now I pay the $35. to go and let the experts do their thing. It is better, depending on what you do in life and what your expectations are. If you are a housewife and home with small kids and have limited extra $$$, then by all means do the high poney tail, layered look. BTW~~high ponytail means use the top of your ears as the ponytail height, no higher. If you have a professional outside the home job and the extra $$$ to go to a salon and get 'choppy layered' then let them do it. I wish I had the pix to send you, but I've been doing it since before computers even existed. You need good scissors that are sharp to do a good job. don't use your kids school scissors that have been cutting paper....the sharper scissors, the better the outcome. I was a cosmetologist prior to nursing school, so I had scissors that cost me $160.00 (those are the fairly inexpensive ones, too).



Good luck and if you do it, let me know how it turned out. You might let a friend do the cutting....or a husband/boyfriend...just easier to do.

DO NOT DO THIS!!



This can sometimes lead to a un-desired effect some layers will be to short and will stick out at the top of your head.



TRUST ME: I did this once and my hair turned out a disaster then my friend tried her hair turned out really bad to we ended up getting our hair in boy-cuts!!

Hi One day I decided I wanted rid of my waist length hair so I tied it back into a LOW pony and cut it off....the overall effect was the 'pob' but I dont advise you to do this as it really does need neatening up afterwards. Definitely dont put it into a high pony as that would leave you with very short bits on top of your head!!



p.s after I cut it myself, I had it neatened up and then decided to go with a shror cropped look. 2 years later I have now got healthy shoulder length hair (mine does grow really quick because I have chopped it all off once before and it took 4 years to go to my waist). I'm never gonna have short hair again....twice was too much..made me feel a bit unfeminine having very short hair. The 'pob' is gorgeous though.



Layereing your own hair by cutting a pony tail?

Don't do it. Go to a salon and have it done professionally. Yes it will give you layers but it will need to be tidied up otherwise it will look a complete mess.



Layereing your own hair by cutting a pony tail?

my sister did that to me when i was little and ...i can still remember how horribly it looked, and how sorry i was to have let her mess with my hair. so do not try this ...unique method:)
