I would so love to see different ponytail style haircuts on this channel because I live in rural Arizona and cannot find a hairdresser to save my life. If you did that I would be eternally grateful.

[desifromitaly]

Yes, please, do a whole serie on ponytail cuts! 😍

[turquoisebabies]

These types of videos are literally improving people's lives.

Please more ponytail cuts. ❤ Id love to see longer layers but with face framing layers and feathering. Maybe also a tutorial on using the thinning scissors properly too. ❤

[SueB]

Yes to more ponytail style cuts. You are amazing at sectioning the hair as well. And your own hair looks absolutely stunning. Color and cut is perfection 👌

[kellyvonborstel]

Love this! More ponytail cuts, please!

I have cut my own hair for 10 years but it’s the pampering, the head massage that I miss . Hair stylists will always be in demand 💕

I watched this yesterday and did my teen daughter’s hair a few minutes ago. I felt completely comfortable and confident doing this. I did the traditional technique. I only done hair during lockdown for Covid a few years back. I feel like I will be doing this again when it’s time. I did the ponytail technique on myself. So I’m thrilled with how well your video helped me. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. ❤ my daughter had Rapunzel hair so it was a challenge to medium long hair.

This turned out great! Yes do more ponytails please!

[carachow]

This is a brilliant concept!!! I always wondered how those ponytail DIY compared to a proper salon cut. I would love to see more videos like this!

[missfoofoo]

I really liked this tutorial because it helps to cut for shorter hair that is not long enough to pull forward like other butterfly cuts for longer hair. I first cut my friend’s hair as a layered bob and didn’t like it. She has a lot of thick hair. I have the butterfly cut myself and i love it and my hair is a bit longer. Anyway i went back and gave her a butterfly cut in front which came out beautiful but i couldn’t do the typical back ponytail forward because now it’s shorter with layers. This video shows a different way to pull the back ponytail back instead of forward. So i will correct the back of her hair, can’t wait!

Yes Pony tail please!!! Summer could you please do some for thinning fine hair? Shoulder length before the cuts. Thank you! xo

[JenniferBalen-ep]

Thank you for being so relaxed you make this cut very enjoyable and not threatening I am excited to see the results good teaching ability! Keep up the great work show us something different I look forward to seeing your platform!

[Grace-szor]

Please, more ponytail cuts!!! This is a great video! Thank you for your hair tutorials. I have curly/wavy fine hair. Is there a ponytail cut for my type of hair? Again, thank you, for your tutorials!

[parisserene]

I’d love to see more ponytail cuts, especially for long hair

[ririnnurcahyawati]

I'm from Indonesia, I learned to cut hair from your video, thank you very much, I'm an autodidact, learning from YouTube

[MrsAngels]

I cut 2 inches off and had my stylist do this cut yesterday. I live it! ❤❤❤

[lucasley]

Such a timely video! I was just thinking that I may start cutting my own hair as they are getting too expensive for me. Yes, more ponytail cuts please!

[ijusthis-hryg]

I like both. I do see the difference. Ponytail may be easier for us DIYers. Hope to see more Ponytail Cuts in future. Thanks for all these great videos and great cuts.
