If you have long, flowing locks and want a fresh new style without losing its length, consider getting your hair layered cut. Layered haircuts give texture and movement while simultaneously eliminating bulk.
Make your layers appear even and smooth by combing straight before cutting your hair, and cutting when damp for maximum precision.
Feathered Layers
Feathered layers are an elegant option for long hair. Not only do they add movement and volume, but they also frame your face beautifully! Feathered layers look particularly chic when used with today’s popular coloring technique: balayage.
Layers lighten your hair’s weight, making styling and maintaining easier. They also produce different-length strands, which move differently; shorter ones weigh less, so gravity pulls them down more readily, resulting in more movement-y locks.
Lucy Liu looks breathtaking with her feathered bob, which adds texture and fullness to her silky straight locks. If you want to try this feathered look yourself, be sure to ask your stylist to add lighter highlights to showcase its movement – this will accentuate its feathery texture as well as highlight facial features to make you appear slimmer while simultaneously softening and strengthening strands for healthier-looking strands!
Side-parted Bob
A deep side part is an elegant way to soften layered bobs, adding volume and shape without creating an apparent form or heavy look. Ideal for thin hair types, this style adds volume without creating a pronounced finish.
This type of layered bob works particularly well on those with blonde or light brown locks. This look achieves subtle and complete results by adding feathering in front and brown highlights throughout.
Your hair must be healthy and well-conditioned for this style to work correctly. Use a hair serum to combat frizziness before blow drying using either a paddle or round brush – then finish off by spraying with hairspray for a long-term hold. Give this look a try if you want something with more of a boho vibe or want to add drama!
Bouncy Layers
For an eye-catching and stylish volume boost, opt for layers with flipped-up ends. This style works exceptionally well when applied to blonde-layered cuts; additionally, its structure makes it suitable for women with thin strands.
This classic shoulder-length layered haircut adds shape and dimension to wavy or curly locks while remaining simple to style. Tousle your locks for beachy waves or sweep bangs over for a refined look – just remember to trim those layers every 10-12 weeks for optimal results!
Long layers can frame your face and make you appear thinner while simultaneously adding length. From modern looks to 1960s styles with parted curtain bangs, feathered long layers allow you to achieve any era-inspired kind quickly. When combined with balayage or ombre hues, your layers will shine even brighter and appear even more flattering!
Sleek Layers
An appropriate long layered haircut will complement your face shape while offering more styling options. From sleek and polished looks to beach days, these layers will add volume and frame your face beautifully.
This style works well on most hair textures, from straight, wavy, or curly locks. To achieve it, dampen your waves with a volumizer before blow drying using a round brush and fingers to separate curls before spraying with hold spray to complete the look.
Request a U-shaped cut from your stylist to achieve sleek layers. This style involves shorter pieces around the front of your head and longer layers in the back, creating fuller layers without taking away too much length. It works particularly well on those with bobs and angled pixie cuts, adding volume without cutting any size off too quickly. For a bolder statement look, try adding some balayage highlights as well.
