38 V-Cut Long Hair Inspiration for a Stylish V Shape Look

#1 Mid-Length V Hairstyle with Curled Tips

Request a mid-length V-cut with curled tips. A V-cut is ideal for medium to thick hair types if you’re looking to enhance shape and movement. Consider a middle part hairstyle if your face is round, oval, or heart-shaped to achieve a lengthened appearance. Utilize a curling iron from the mid-shaft downward to form curled tips for added movement and texture.

#2 Transforming Long Black to Bronde Ombre Hair

Revamp your long hair with a stunning black to bronde ombré. The tapered ends create a captivating visual that is simple to achieve. Request your stylist to blend the sides into the back for a naturally flowing v-shape. This black to bronde ombré will enhance your long hairstyle, ensuring you receive plenty of compliments.

#3 V-Cut Textured Hair

As shorter chops create layers and volume, these straight v-cut strands give a fuller appearance and are simpler to style.

#4 Graduated V-Cut for Fine Hair

Due to the style, graduation is achieved, giving the overall appearance a fuller look.

#5 Textured V-Cut with Delicate Tips

This textured haircut complements a v-cut, creating a tousled effect and perfect for effortless styles like a ponytail.

#6 Chic Medium-Length V-Cut Curly Hair

Travel back to the ’70s! The curls are the highlight of the party, while the v-cut is the center of attention!

#7 Stylish V-Cut with Fringes

Layers can be achieved while maintaining v-cut ends. The fringes provide a more approachable appearance.

#8 Elegant Long Sleek Black V-Cut Hairstyle

Enhance your long tresses with an elegant black v-cut. To achieve this style with super long hair, your stylist will need to hand-cut the desired shape. Ensure you are standing during the v-cut process, as sitting can affect the outcome. You can add luster to your hair with a deep hue that catches the light, and consider applying an oil, such as Redken Oil For All.

#9 For Extra Long Locks

This haircut offers an ideal solution for managing thick, voluminous hair! The flowing waves create a structured texture that keeps everything lively.

#10 Chic V-Cut Hairstyle in Platinum Blonde

Chic v-cut hairstyle in platinum blonde will introduce dimension to hair and draw attention. A v-shape is an excellent option if you have medium to thick hair and wish to minimize bulk. Ideal for wearing up or down, the shape will always appear appealing regardless of your choice.

#11 Gentle Mid-Length Wavy Tresses with Blonde Balayage

The waves accentuate the blonde balayage even further! The cut also adds a lovely fringe that can soften your features.

#12 Elegant Wide V Cut with Waves

Request a stylish V-cut with waves to infuse movement and sophistication into your look. A V-shape enhances a ponytail or looks beautiful when curled and styled. In either case, the length and volume are guaranteed to attract attention. I enjoy incorporating a few layers into the cut to ensure the waves cascade beautifully.

#13 Layered V Shaped Haircut with Face-Framing Accents

This layered haircut with face-framing elements might be exactly what you’re looking for! Consult your stylist for medium-length layers that frame your face with shorter lengths. Request a seamless transition into longer strands at the back. Use a 2-inch round brush or add some curls for extra hold if needed.

#14 V-Cut Hairstyle with Gentle Waves and Warm Tint

Enhance your v-cut hairstyle with gentle waves and a warm tint, and you’ll feel absolutely fabulous. Have your stylist angle the sides and incorporate subtle layers to achieve an elegant shape with soft movement. You’ll want to curl your hair with a large 1 to 1-1/2 inch iron, sectioning as you go. Pay attention to the ends, and strive to keep them healthy by using a heat protectant, such as Redken’s Thermal Spray 11 Low Hold. Comb through your curls once they are cooled for smooth and beautiful waves.

#15 Blonde V-Cut with Textured Layers

Request a blonde textured v-cut. If you’re looking for a style that complements all face shapes, ask your stylist for a v-cut paired with shaped layers. They will accentuate your features beautifully. For fine hair, consider fewer layers to maintain thickness. For thick hair, opting for more layers and texturizing will lighten the load and enhance movement. Imagine a gentle, shaggy Farrah Fawcett look.

#16 Textured Layered V-Cut with a Central Division

Elevate your curly locks into a layered v-cut featuring a central division. Infusing layers into your silhouette will give your hair a lighter, more voluminous appearance. Ensure the layers retain length to uphold the integrity of the ends. The stylish central division is currently favored for longer hair. Consider diffusing your hair with a curl-boosting product to maximize the beauty of your strands.

#17 Gorgeous Long Wispy V-Cut with Gentle Balayage

There is nothing more stunning than a gorgeous long wispy v-cut with gentle balayage. Natural hand-painted blonding, achieved by balayage, is certainly on trend. A strong side angle with long layers will create a wispy v-cut. You’ll want to get a trim regularly to minimize split ends and maintain your hair’s health.

#18 Chic V-Cut Brunette Locks with Dark Ends

Choose a sleek brunette v-cut with dark ends. A stunning perimeter shape is a V cut haircut that enhances the face and tapers longer in the back. Draw attention to the hair with dark-colored ends. They create an illusion in the hair to give it a voluminous look. Consult your stylist for a reverse ombré if this style appeals to you.

#19 Elegant V-Cut Straight Hair with Fiery Dark Copper Ombre

This elegant v-cut straight hair featuring a fiery dark copper ombre may be your next bold hairstyle choice. Ideal for any occasion, V-cuts are stunning when worn in a ponytail or styled sleek and straight. The addition of color, like dark copper, complements beautifully on long straight hair styles.

#20 Charming V-Cut Hairstyle for Luscious Hair

Luscious locks can benefit from an angular cut to create layers and add volume. Consult your stylist about balayage to accentuate the layers even further.

#21 Waist-Length Hair Transformations

A V-cut on waist-length hair is an exciting method to maintain length while eliminating excess bulk. Reducing hair around the face can enhance the framing of your facial features. Yet, a v-cut allows you to feel as though you still possess long hair. If your hair is on the thicker side, incorporating several layers into your v-cut can assist in alleviating the weight of your long hair.

#22 Sleek Long Layered Blonde V-Cut Style

A long layered blonde V-cut is a fantastic way to transform your look. With a V-cut, your hair is styled into a V shape, or when I create this style, I divide the hair from the nose to the nape, then bring each side in front of the shoulder and snip a straight line. This will produce that V shape without needing to cut it physically into a V. You’ll need to tidy it up, but the contour is established. If you’re confident with cutting a straight V, feel free to proceed, and utilize your longest shears.

#23 Vibrant Crimson and Deep Burgundy Tresses

V-shaped hair enhances vibrant crimson and deep burgundy to create a stunning effect, as these hues make hair color stand out! Consult your stylist for a cut and style after having them apply these two colors in blocks. Parting down the center with one hue on each side is daring and will surely draw attention.

#24 Curly V-Cut Hair with Mullet Flair

When styled into a v-shape, curly hair takes on a mullet-inspired look that’s quite distinctive. This exceptional hairstyle is rarely seen. Incorporating layers throughout helps eliminate bulk and enhances volume, allowing the natural curls to spring up and dance elegantly.

#25 Stylish Golden Brown for a V Layered Haircut

Consider a golden brown shade for your V-layered haircut to keep the length while exploring a fresh shape. One of the features I love about a V haircut is how it beautifully frames the face. This cut is ideal if you’re looking to grow your hair while preserving its length. Use an inch-and-a-half curling iron for styling to achieve soft, effortlessly beautiful waves.

#26 Dynamic Layered V-Cut

I adore this style for women with abundant hair. With numerous layers styled out, it’s my preferred haircut due to how the hair layers stack (it creates a seamless transition without being overly choppy). It can also be suitable for women with straight hair, but I would only suggest it if they appreciate layers near the face. I would only recommend this on hair that is about mid-back length or longer.

If you usually wait a while between haircuts or braid your hair at all, I wouldn’t recommend this type of cut because of all the varying lengths, which can either poke out or split and make your hair appear more damaged overall. It’s also not ideal for fine hair, as it can make the ends appear overly wispy.

#27 Chic and Playful V-Cut for Short Hair

This cut is a pixie for wavy, thick hair. One of my favorite things about this haircut is the difference in movement. It’s chic, playful, and super cute! It’s the ideal cut for a woman with a natural curl or wave and wanting a little playful change while still preferring a low-maintenance style. The “V” offers a nice clean, sharp look while maintaining that stylish wavy texture on top! If you’re a lady who enjoys variety in your haircut, this is the perfect balance of movement, allowing an easy flow into that nice, clean shape.

This shape is best for thick hair! The weight of their hair will hold that nice “V” in place with minimal styling. I suggest either using a curly hair product while it’s wet, then scrunch and go or blow-dry it and style it with a wand, so you still have that wavy texture!

#28 Auburn Hairstyle with Sleek Straight Layers

A hairstyle featuring sleek straight layers will give your hair a light and airy feel. Requesting a v-cut is ideal for maintaining length while minimizing bulk. Incorporating highlights into the style can enhance brightness as the layers lighten the overall look.

#29 Effortless and Natural Beach Waves

This long-layered V-cut gracefully falls past the shoulders, creating an airy feel while preserving beautiful volume. Its fine strands benefit from the subtle beach waves, delivering movement and a relaxed flair. The rooted blonde transition to a lighter end contributes a stunning depth, ideal for those seeking to introduce dynamism to their appearance without sacrificing length. Perfect for fine hair, it enhances fullness. Caution: Excessive layering may thin out already fine ends, so balance is essential. This cut acts as a charm for a visual volume enhancement, yet may necessitate regular styling to uphold the waves’ shape.

#30 Waist-Length V-Cut with Deep Neckline

This style exudes elegance and depth. The appeal of the haircut lies in the V shape, which creates the illusion of a slimmer waist while accentuating the hips. It’s a captivating take on the hourglass silhouette achieved through this haircut. This look is ideal for women with longer hair who want to maintain their length while introducing layers and stylish face-framing. For those with shorter hair attempting to create this look, it would likely result in a U shape rather than a V.

I suggest that clients with finer hair consider other options as this haircut requires significant seamless layering. Women with fine hair benefit more from cuts that create an illusion of thickness and fullness; hence, a more blunt approach is advised.

#31 Long Wavy V-Cut with Textured Layers and Blonde Balayage

Consider requesting a long wavy v-cut with textured layers and blonde balayage for your next look. This style is stunning on medium to thick hair, as the highlighted layers create added body and movement. A v-shape works beautifully whether you wear your hair up or down. Embrace this trend today!

#32 Layered Medium V-Cut Hairstyle

This hairstyle showcases a long layered shag, abundant texture, and a V-shaped baseline. Most of the layering occurs around the crown and apex of the head to enhance volume and movement with minimal effort. Shags are fantastic! They complement many face shapes and can be adjusted in various ways. Regardless, it’s wise to think about how you style your hair on a daily basis.

This is a fantastic cut brimming with styling possibilities. However, the layering and texture can sometimes complicate braids, up-dos, and “conservative” styles, though they are not unachievable. Considering the length of your existing hair and the amount you are prepared to cut for the layering process will significantly influence the result of your desired appearance.

#33 Stunning Blonde V-Cut Layers with Curled Tips

If your hair tends to grow quickly, the best way to maintain a blonde base is to request a V-Cut with layers. In between salon visits, styles like curled tips extend the wear.

#34 Subtle V-Cut for Shoulder-Length Hair

The objective was to introduce significant movement in the hair with enhanced texture. I employed a razor to accomplish this with plenty of detail. In this image, she tilted her head to the right for me to capture some of the layers more effectively. The outline features a gentle V-shape cut.

#35 Luxuriously Layered Hairstyle

This look was inspired by the greats of our industry, Chris Baran & Sam Villa. I aspired to have their precise melting technique and eye for the “V” shaped layered cut. It propels your hair away from your face creating a fantastic and easy, loose curl effect if styled with a wand or 11/4 inch curling iron. It’s important to mention that the point or the longest perimeter will tend to lack density by the second to the third appointment, especially if we want to leave the perimeter and take up the movement (layers) on top.

Second, the density within the top of the head can become bulky and unmanageable with textured hair. For my textured hair clients, I like to leave the length longer throughout to prevent a Christmas tree look with a tail. For fine hair clients, the shorter the layers, the thinner the hair appears. There are often better designs than this for fine hair, but they can be customized for every head.

#36 Timeless V-Cut for Straight Hair

This style features a timeless and elegant V-cut. The best aspect of this haircut is its adaptability! This cut is fantastic because you can sport it in curly, wavy, sleek, straight, or natural styles, and it’ll still shine! Opt for a lovely V-shaped cut that is easy to maintain regardless of how you choose to wear it!

I appreciate this haircut most on longer locks, as it maintains shape without sacrificing length. It’s an excellent choice for women who don’t necessarily desire layers but want something to add vibrancy. However, anyone can enjoy this cut if their hair is shorter and they are fond of the V shape style. Just be aware that it requires angles framing your face; if you have an elongated face shape, keep that in mind!

#37 Elegant Blonde Wavy V-Cut with Subtle Ends

Consider trying an elegant blonde wavy v-cut for your fine locks. To enhance volume, incorporate soft curls to add depth and fullness around the edges. Request your stylist for crown or concave layers to achieve lift and texture.

#38 Effortless Ponytail for V-Cut Locks

Timeless, like your beloved jewelry or that classic film you always enjoy. That’s what a ponytail represents.
