A wolf cut with bangs is a trendy layered haircut with a soft face-framing feature. This chop is an outgrown mullet with tons of shaggy layers. It’s a great option for ladies wanting to flaunt a tousled, effortless style!
Jasmine Blackbear, a stylist from Dallas, TX, describes wolf cuts as a disconnected look. “There’s a dramatic length difference between the front and back of the ear. The cut is a comfort zone for those who can’t commit to a traditional mullet,” she explains.
Blackbear is worried that some hairstylists overthink the whole cut. They seem confused over the sectioning and the disconnection in the cut.
Her advice is to just go for it! “I love that the wolf haircut is on the edgier side, and women want the harsh line,” Blackbear states.
The length is a significant factor in achieving that layered shape. Blackbear suggests “not cut it too long as it will only look like a heavy face-framing.”
Other adorable aspects of this cut are the wispy texture on the hair tips and how the ends are beveled towards the face.
One way to keep your hair looking on point is to style it. “The styling is very low-maintenance. Women can use any hot tools to style the ends and achieve a salon-inspired look,” she adds.
