One of the best hairstyles to flatter all face shapes is a medium length layered haircut. Its purpose is not variety but symmetry, creating an easy yet professional aesthetic.
Choppy layers for thin or fine hair:
Choppy layers are an innovative volumetric layering technique that’s particularly well suited for thin or fine hair, offering a balanced yet edgy style that’s simple to manage and style.
Long layers for thicker locks:
Long layers are an effective way to give thicker locks volume while taking away weight from them. This technique creates an eye-catching silhouette and works beautifully on hair lengths from a full bob to a short pixie.
Styling tips for layered haircuts:
Curled or blown out using a round brush, layered haircuts look their best when styled with Kerastase Elixir Ultime L’Huile Original shine serum or oil to lock in moisture and give your locks an extra luminous sheen.
Choppy layers for medium length hair:
Choppy layers are an easy and quick way to add dimension and easy styling to medium length hair, while creating the illusion of thickness without looking heavy or unattractive. Pair this cut with side swept bangs or tousled waves for a sexy finish!
Layering for thin hair:
Layering can help make thin hair appear thicker by having your stylist cut shorter layers into longer strands that blend into each other seamlessly. Just beware not to add too many layers as it may leave your locks sparse and unruly!
Layering for medium to thick hair:
Medium to thick hair will benefit greatly from having their locks layered. This technique adds volume and helps shape and de-weight the locks, perfect for wavy and curly textures. Style using a round brush for a beautiful blowout.
Different layering options:
Many different layers can be cut into your hair to give it a tailored, balanced, and edgy style. Popular choices include choppy, invisible, feathered, and graduated layers, all complementing your individual texture for an enhanced style suitable for any occasion.
Layering for texture:
Choppy layers give thick hair a bold and stylish appearance, decreasing weight and allowing for freedom of movement. Thinner hair may benefit from a texturing cut that creates scantier ends without taking away from the interior length. Curly and wavy locks tend to benefit from layers, creating a cascading look that’s easy to style.
Consider face shape:
Face shape is an essential factor when selecting the appropriate layered haircut. Oval and rectangular faces work beautifully with any type of layered haircut but should ensure the hairstyle doesn’t appear too full. Round faces can create the illusion of length through the sides and soften angles with layers that have movement. Different types of layered cuts work well for medium to long hair and short styles.
