How Harry Styles Cut His Long Hair

1. Rise to Fame

Harry Styles quickly went from X Factor hopeful to boy band heartthrob and then, just one year later, one of the most sought-after solo artists around. Since then, he’s earned BRIT awards, Rolling Stone covers, Gucci campaigns, and a reputation for dating beautiful women.

2. Embracing Natural Waves

If you have wavy hair, embrace it! Wavy locks are effortlessly stylish and can be enhanced with hairspray. Achieve natural-looking waves using the sock technique or curling iron for alternating-directional curls. Smudge or scrunch your hair to add texture and enhance waves. Mist your locks with lightweight hairspray to hold the style, and you can easily style your locks into a low ponytail or messy bun.

3. Trendy Braided Updo

Braided updos are making a comeback. This hairstyle can last up to one month with minimal maintenance. Try the ribbon halo braid for a romantic and creative look. Suitable for all hair lengths, it looks especially lovely with highlighted or blonde locks. This elegant updo combines flat twists and French braids for a stylish, yet formal, look.

4. Stylish Side-Swept Layers

Long layered bangs add dimension to various styles. They can frame the face, soften pixie cuts, volumize thin hair, and conceal receding temples. Side-swept bangs blend beautifully with red highlights, particularly on blond hair. For an effortless and sophisticated look, try a long blunt bob with side-swept bangs. It’s ideal for shoulder-length hair and frames the face beautifully.

5. Dramatic Long Layers

Harry Styles has experimented with various hairstyles and settled on long layers tucked behind an angular fringe. Longer gaps between layers create a dramatic effect when styled back, giving an elegant and soft appearance. This style is perfect for naturally wavy or curly locks, adding movement to the look. It also enhances volume for those with thick hair. Ask your stylist to add face-framing layers and subtle layers throughout for maximum effect.
