Layering can add movement and reduce weight in your straight locks, making them appear thicker. Layers also work great for thin or delicate locks, making strands appear fuller.
Long Layers
For longer hair, request long layers that frame your face. These layers will give your locks more thickness, bounce, and body. Styling becomes more accessible with these layers – comb or brush backward for fuller styles.
Try the trendy choppy V-cut layers with caramel brown highlights for added volume and texture. Another option is dynamic flowy layers starting at the jawline and gradually growing longer towards the front for an enchanting beach wave look, perfect for summer.
Short Layers
Layered haircuts can provide an effortless, airy silhouette. They can reduce bulk in thick locks or add mystery and drama to fine locks. Layer cuts can create medium face-framing pieces for a timeless and effortless style. They also work excellently on curly locks, defining and shaping natural coils into soft waves.
Leave the cutting to professionals to avoid unattractive and uneven results. Skilled stylists can create layers tailored to your desired goals.
Invisible Layers
Consider invisible layers, also known as internal layers, if you want the look of layers without excess weight. This technique uses slide cutting and point cutting to create air pockets, expanding hair shape and reducing overall weight. It’s ideal for straight, long strands for a soft romantic look.
Add soft curtain bangs to beautifully frame your face and balance the style.
Side Bangs
Long, straight hair gains dimension and modern appeal with long feathered layers framing the face. Subtle balayage highlights can enhance the style while remaining easy to maintain. This chic and fashionable layered haircut pairs well with side bangs, perfect for formal events. Curlier hair can also pull off this cut, with careful trimming to avoid a choppy appearance. Textured layers add more volume to the style.
