#1: Pale Blonde Blunt Cut

If you have blonde hair that’s long and pale, consider sporting a blunt cut. Since longer hair may thin out at the ends, a blunt cut could help it appear as thick as possible. This cut suits many ages and face shapes. However, it needs regular salon visits for maintenance.

Long hair with a blunt cut that has low soft waves is a simple yet timeless look. The blunt cut gives a nice contrast to the texture, giving both waves and cut an uplifting effect.

Opt for a full heavy baby-light (micro highlights) to achieve the best blend and grow out. Be meticulous about blending because it produces a very natural highlighted look without the harsh lines that some highlights leave.

Incorporate a primer and leave-in conditioner for moisture by Amika. Style the hair with your favorite Hot-tools 1-inch curling iron. Curl your hair starting mid to ends, and leave some of the ends out to give it that nice beachy wave effect. Finish the style with the Amika texture spray.

If you’re considering going as blonde, get into the salon every 6 to 8 weeks for a touchup. To keep your hair nice and bright blonde in between salon visits, get some the purple shampoo by Amika.

Your stylist’s approach to cutting should be to maintain a strong perimeter while removing as much weight as possible.

If done right, a blunt effect can flatter anyone, whether you have thin, medium, or thick hair. This haircut is universally flattering on all women because it sits between the chin and the chest. It’s not just like every long haircut because the piece perimeter gives it some edge. It’s super low maintenance and easy to style!

#9 Layered Curls

Before cutting these curls, visualize a layered and voluminous shape. Using a curl by curl, dry-cutting technique, ask your stylist to enhance your curl pattern by cutting on the “C” of each curl and shorten up more pieces towards the top of the crown and around your face to create a more rounded look. The key to styling curls is applying all products to soaking wet hair to replace any water with the product, which will seal in moisture and prevent the hair shaft from opening up to look for moisture in the air, which can create frizz.
