Long Hairstyles
Long hairstyles are anything longer than the shoulder blades, and they include natural texture, flirtatious flips and long loose layers in straight, wavy or curly textures. It's a mistake to think that long hair's boring, because small changes such as bangs and face-framing layers can easily be achieved by your hairstylist to great effect.
Method
You can achieve a versatile hair cut, layered all around, through some simple techniques. Razor-cutting and slicing can be used around the perimeter of long hairstyles to give definition- but only a qualified professional should perform these techniques.
Benefits
A big reason long hairstyles are so popular is because one minute they can be super practical and easily put into a ponytail, and the next they can just as easily be put up for a formal occasion. You can also totally change the look of a longer hairstyle with different hair parts.
Beware
You should bear in mind that long hairstyles take more time to dry, style and maintain. Long hair can also lose it's healthy condition very quickly (split ends can be a problem)!
Tips
To accentuate layers around the face, apply styling products and blow-dry hair with a large round brush or paddle brush. Try using a flat-iron to achieve a smooth texture. |
