Step Cut
Step cutting involves trimming three different lengths in one cut. The shortest layer starts just above the ear, followed by a layer below it, and then a slightly shorter layer. This creates a stylish look, especially for wavy hair, defining beautiful waves, or giving curly locks lively coils. However, straight hair may have choppy ends when styled with a step cut. On the other hand, traditional layered haircuts suit all hair textures and face shapes, giving a bouncy appearance and making it easy to style into braids or updos.
Layer Cut
Layer cuts involve cutting the hair in layers using various angled techniques to enhance its natural texture and add volume. This style works well for updos and braids. Face framing layers are elegant and modern for medium-length hair, softening features and slimming the jawline. Coating cuts pair well with bangs whether you have straight or wavy medium locks. To achieve this style, divide your hair into three sections, create lines at your desired width, and connect the more extended layer at the bottom seamlessly through the layers.
Uneven Layered Cut
Layered styles work for all hair types and textures, adding volume or lightening thick strands. For an effortless manner, go for a shoulder-length cut with evenly distributed layers. This works great for naturally wavy or curly locks and provides face-framing layers. If you want a bold look, opt for choppy layers with an uneven, textured, and choppy appearance. This style requires regular maintenance, which may need trimming every 8-10 weeks.
Waterfall Cut
Waterfall layers add soft, rounded shapes and volume to your hair, creating a feminine and glamorous look for special events. These layers work well with red or copper hues. Waterfall cuts are ideal for medium to long-length hair, whether straight, wavy, or curly. This style consists of thin sections of baby bangs that gradually lengthen and transition into face-framing layers falling past the cheekbones. It works beautifully with both boho beach waves and bouncy blowouts.
