HOW TO cut your own Hair Short at Home || Women's DIY HAIRCUT Short Bob (actual chin length short)

Jean Voronkova

(EN/中文/한국/tiếng việt/bahasa/Tagalog) Emboldened by my many LOB (long bob) DIY haircut successes I then venture boldly where never been before (at least by myself) actual chin length short blunt bob haircut! Technically a lot harder than the long bob LOB to DIY cut at home, but happily my actual chinlength short bob DIY haircut turned out to be a success (despite long hours and sore arms and a wretched neck haha). But so cathartic and it was all in all a fun evening spent with myself and a pair of scissors (actual haircutting ones that cost me like ... US$6. Which I finally sprang for, cos i'm cheap and actual hairdresser haircuts are like, 10x more haha). I'm totally addicted to DIY haircuts! Easy, economical, you have total control and its creatively fun!

So basically, 2 ponytails at each side and one strategically placed ponytail at the nape of your neck. Snip the back off, trim and tidy, and then divide and conquer the sides.

Got the idea for doing this cut by watching a ton of haircut tutorials not many DIY haircut tutorials on Youtube for actual chinlength real short hair haircuts, but big thanks to a couple of specific videos that helped me Sara Urb with this video    • GIVING MYSELF A SHORT HAIRCUT! (DIY: ...   and sadly, also a shoutout to US JAP FAM and her video    • DIY Bob Haircut from Ponytail | Quara...   for showing me WHAT NOT TO DO. I ended up trying my own approach but seeing their howto's helped me a lot!
