This is my go-to haircut. There's no curly hair specialist near where I live so I have no choice but to do this on my own 🤣 So worth it 🤩

I’d love to see the other final styles for different pigtail positions

Since I discovered your DIY haircut method, I’ve been trimming my hair myself for the past couple of months! Thank you for demystifying this process. Now I am addicted, and I want to trim my hair every week😂

I have seen the original video but would love to see a step by step tutorial of this new variation...to follow along.😬🥰

something about your voice and presentation style is so satisfying in a way that i can’t explain. the way you said “cutting lotion” made me wanna comment lmfao! gotta try this method

Omg, every hair stylist I’ve ever been to in my life needs to watch this! None of them cut my hair properly…I cut my own hair🤷‍♀️

I just cut my hair today and I love this technique. I've been cutting my hair this way for the past two years and I'll never cut my hair any other way. 💖 The growth after a good cut is crazy !

This worked brilliantly. Always trust in Mel, our mane girl.

Just want to put it out there. You've helped a curly hair guy many times over (and, by extension, have contributed to compliments I've gotten) with some of your tips. Thank you kindly!

I always come back to your turtorials, literally just cut my hair again. Don’t have any curl specialist near by and I’m a student so need to stay on a budget. Your videos have been a live saver, I’ve not been to the hairdresser since 2020

This is what I needed. My layers are a bit disconnected. Thank you!

Daamn.. definitely wasn't expecting that.. it's absolutely gorgeous 😍

This is amazing! I've been trimming myself for the last few months, and my curls have been very happy.

I'm so green jello of your natural curls, you go girl, gorgeous 😍

I did this yesterday and finally achieved what I wanted with my hair. Thank you a thousand times! ❤ PS I didn’t do it because my hair was “bottom heavy” but the opposite - it was thinning at the bottom. Now it’s has much fuller look!

I used your technique 2 days ago. I’m so happy you made this video cause its going to help me so much next time.

two days ago my hairdo was too long so i decided to "trim it where i see it". your video helped to substantially reverse the damage. dare i say, it is 90% good. thank you, Mell!

I was just thinking how could cut my own for past 4 days.This came right on time. Thank you. It made it easy for me to not be so scared to do it. Yours came out great

I've been unhappy with my haircuts from other people ever since I stopped going to my regular stylist, but I still wanna keep my mullet she originally created for me so I'm ready to trim my ends while keeping my mullet-y layers!

Hey Mell! I was wondering what kind of haircut would be good for medium/fine curly hair that seems to be weighed down? Are layers a good option? Also what highlights do you give Amada I want to get them! Thanks for being the best curly KZfaqr out there! Say hi to Amanda for me! 😁💖

I would love an updated long curly cut video! I use the one you did a couple years ago with Amanda as our hair is similar. I have had good luck with it but always interested in seeing what’s changed if anything in the last two years. Thanks!! 😊

Wow...that turned out amazing. You look stunning!!!!

You're my literal lofesaver

Definitely needed to see this today. Guess it’s time to do the famous hair trim to my own hair. Can’t wait to see the finished product 🥰. Thank you Mel!

Would it look funny if we did all three hair tie placements?

Your hair is so pretty and healthy ❤❤

I just love this technique. You made my life so much better because a trim to the SALON prices these days🤦🏽‍♀️

Oh Darling...thank you for explaining where to put the ponytail...Brilliant!

My technique is cut here and there, done.

I love your energy and style in your videos!

Mell, can you review affordable Amazon hair sheers?

Your curls are stunning!

Been cutting my own curls since the pandemic, lol! I have been using your pigtail technique, just cut my hair again today!

Hi Mell! I love your videos, they are so helpful. I would love to see a video where you show how with the curlsmith color gels where the hair is cut in a few variations of this haircut , or simply explaining which combinations vertical and horizontal placements do or don't work well. Like is a placement a bit back but higher up a good idea, things like that.

Looks great 🤩

That is some beautiful hair!

Definitely trying this at home! I can’t keep paying $200+ just for a wash and trim with my stylist every couple months.🫠

Looove these curly hair cut lessons! I will be trying this cut tomorrow. 🤞🏼🙏🏼😊

Beautiful curls

I love the dark hair on you Mel!!!

Omg that looks amazing!!

Thank you for showing different placements!! I’ve been looking for an alternative to the just single unicorn hair cut and the two ponies up front, then a bang blend will be PERFECT

Yooooooo this is the first time that I've seen one of your videos and I about to stalk your page! You droped lots of tips/ instructions about cutting hair in seconds. It's amazing how somebody can give so much information in a short amount of time but yet nobody does it nowadays. Thank you so much for this short.

So BEAUTIFUL ❤️

Just tried this technique and it worked!! Thank you!

OMG WHY HAVE I NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE

My god your hair is gorgeous!!

It works awesome for you !!! Looks great !!! Easy-Peezy !

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE A LONGER VIDEO ON THIS!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Love you MANE GIRL MEL!!!!

Omg love how it came out lovely

Love your curls

I’ve seen curly youtubers do videos such as setting up a curly hair routine under 10 dollars or shopping for curly hair products at a dollar store. I think it could be a fun video to see you do 🙃

I just want to say THANK YOU❤

So helpful, thank you!

Thank you for this! The graduated effect is all I ever want but don't always get.

Amazing

Thank you- it worked!❤

It works!! ❤

Wowza gorgeous hair🎉🎉🎉

OH! MY! GWARD!!!!! 😍😍 NOW THATS A GLOW UP! 🔥

Brilliant Brilliant BRAVO 👏 🙌 😀 👍 👌 😄 A MILLION THANK YOU'S

I wish you could come and trim my hair. It's been months since I've had a trim.

Beautiful

I want a version for straight cut on curly without layers just round it

Please show us how you cut Amanda's hair 🙌🏽.

My hair goal😩

omg 😦 SO BEAUTIFUL🗣🗣🗣🗣

Fantastic, just one question: How can we get a haircut less rounded but with layers? Maybe with other haircut (wolf cut?), or with this doing the pigtails upper to have shorter layers on the top? Of course, my hair is Curly, but I prefer a "lion look" than a "ball look". I appreciate your help 🙏

Love pigtails teehee

Woah so cute

Will this haircut also look good when i straighten my hair?❤

Bihh I'ma bout to go do this now

Oh I love it, beautiful 🥰🥰🥰

Loooove the hair

Scream!!!!!! Me sitting with scissors and hair ties in my hands and I could NOT find this again. It doesn't show up in my history. Calm...calm...I found it.

Nice

Any suggestions on heat damage? I went to a stylist to straighten my hair and got a lot of heat damage

I know this is besides the point, but I love your nails!

I’m doing this tonight 😅

With this technique do you still need to do the final step you did in the original video? Where you turn your head and trim the bottom of the hairs so it’s not in a V shape?

I'm scared hahaha I have the scissors in my hand 😅😂

I have been doing the unicorn cut the last few years and it worked great for my long curly hair. I did this one and I just am at war with my hair!!! I’m trying to figure out a methodical way of fixing it because i think my hair is too thick for this pigtail cut

Would it be a Distaster if I do 2 relatively high ponytails on each side? 🤔🤔🤔 I have tailbone length with no layers. My goal is to add subtle layers while trimming my ends but I fear I won't get much layers with 1 high ponytail due to the length of my hair. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!! 🙏🙏🙏

Help here! I dont want bangs so how do I cut It? ❤❤❤❤

When will your verb line be available in the UK/Ireland?

Which ponytail placement would give more of a rezo hair cut. My hair is already shoulder length. I don’t want to trim off to much.😅

For low density hair do you recommend a short, long layers or more of a 90 degree. More wavy then tight curl

i wonder what it would look like on wavy hair

According to my stylist (highest level stylist at an Aveda salon with 30+ years experience) no cut should be technically "blunt" even blunt looking styles. Hair needs layers so that it can move naturally, be it long layers or hidden layers. Even blunt haircuts on celebrities have layers.

How does it look like straight? Bc I like to wear my hair both naturally wavy and straightened

Can you do this if you straightened ur hair or only when damp

Brb gonna cut my hair

😮 just cut my curly bangs with no instruction.... HELP!!

Ok how do you master this with wet hair

I just let both my girls (6&4) take a poece off the bottom of one piece of their hair ❤😂 i just know theyll be addicted now!

How do you trim your bangs?

okay i need advice. i have bipolar hair and all of it is very beautiful and curly except for the parts around my neck (the underside) which are flat as a board. i want to find a haircut to hide the straight hair and excentuate my curls, as well as making my hair look bigger!!( i have about torso-length hair btw and am open to shorter styles) pls give advice 😭

*Sorry this is so long* Hey Mel, have you ever heard of twisting your hair to create "texture" on the ends? First I should tell you I NOW have very wonky hair - curly in the back & little to none in the front. It was stick straight until my 40's & then it started to curl...? I always twist my bangs (have no natural curl in them) & cut them with thinning shears (usually - sometimes I'll use just any scissor I can find). I feel like it gives me the little fringy bangs that I like without having to tip cut(?) the ends. Anyway my hair is super thick & coarse with a lot of greys & I was wondering if you thought twisting each pigtail would be easier to handle. I really don't think I have the hand/shoulder strength to comb it all flat or that I could even fit all of my hair in one smooth section of my fingers - there's just too much of it. I was thinking if I could just twist it all & put in a hair tie as a guide - would that work? I do have hair scissors BTW. I know that makes a difference. Also where can I get your mister & the styling brush that starts with a "D"? My memory sucks! Hoping to hear from you soon - I'm tempted to just go for it - lol Thanks So Much, MaryAnn
