If you have long locks, there are plenty of fashionable styles you can try with your mane. From wavy layers to an eye-catching bombshell blowout, there’s sure to be something suitable to show off your beautiful locks in style.
No matter the style you desire – from beachy waves to rock’n’roll – layering is key in creating beautiful styles. By layering, varying lengths create movement and texture that flatter all face shapes.
Layered Haircut
A layered haircut is a timeless, customizable style that suits all hair lengths. Layers add texture, movement, and dimension to a haircut while simultaneously helping highlight facial features and add volume for fine or thin locks. In particular, they allow those with naturally curly or wavy locks to maintain the natural coils and kinks of their tresses.
Long haired individuals can choose from various layered haircuts for long hair, such as choppy layers, feathering, and rounded layers. Choppy layers typically comprise short pieces of hair arranged spikily around one another to achieve an edgy and spiky style. Feathered layers offer soft feminine lines while creating soft volume around women’s faces. Finally, rounded layers produce an oval and convex shape around their faces that creates the ultimate feminine appearance.
All these layered hairstyles pair beautifully with bangs, yet all can be difficult to maintain due to frequent trips to your stylist to keep the layers neat and tidy.
If you’re uncertain about which long hairstyle to select, a layered haircut might be just what you need. Consult your stylist to determine which types of layers would best complement your unique texture and style.
Straight-Cut Layered Hairstyle
If you have thick or full locks, a straight-cut layered hairstyle could be your best bet. This style gives your locks a sophisticated and polished appearance and can be styled into various push back, slick back, or side part styles when combined with pomade or gel.
For fine or thin locks, an unlayered haircut featuring blunt bangs may be more suitable, achieving a sleek and sophisticated appearance.
The V Cut
A V cut is one of the trendiest long hairstyles for a good reason – it adds movement and texture to your locks while framing your face perfectly with its deep side part and swoop bang. Expertly cut layers form V shapes for added dimension that flatter all angles of view. Adding color accentuates its beauty!
Thicker locks may benefit from a V-shaped haircut as it reduces the look of overwhelming thickness while simultaneously adding volume with minimal effort. This long style features a curtain bang and soft wave pattern for added femininity, while the pink ombre hair color enhances its eye-catching appeal.
Curling up with curls is another way to wear a V-shaped haircut, giving long blonde locks added body thanks to a wavy pattern and middle part. Additionally, stacked strands arranged in a V shape add volume and provide a flattering appearance.
Thin hair can also benefit from a V-shaped haircut, creating a sleek and contemporary look. This long, straight style shows how well this shape works for thin strands. Adding highlights can further define your style.
V-cuts don’t have to come to sharp points at the ends of your strands. This long red hairstyle demonstrates a more subtle version featuring soft waves, side parting, and light caramel ombre highlights that add depth and dimension.
