Long layers for straight hair provide a polished look with a gentle and subtle movement for added intricacy. Now, having a perfectly straight mane is no longer a reason to endure a flat, dull hairstyle!
Stylist Celeste Docherty from Manahawkin, NJ highlights a few advantages of receiving a layered cut. “One, it reduces some weight from very thick hair. Two, it offers a playful foundation for more styling options,” she mentions.
These layers need to be cut in specific ways, depending on how you prefer to style them. This helps to avoid unwanted choppiness.
Docherty confirms that “bounce, volume, and fullness are achievable with the right layering.”
Hair density and texture are additional factors to consider. This haircut may create finer ends if you have thin hair. Instead, opt for a face frame or curtain bangs to modify your style without sacrificing density.
Show your stylist an image of your favorite hairstyle and ask if you can recreate it at home. Docherty recommends questions like, “Will it align well with your daily routine? Does your hair type complement this look?”
Achieve a brand new hairstyle without losing too much length. These images will demonstrate how to style these fashionable long layers for straight hair!
