The Art of Layered Hair
 Any length of hair can be layered. Often times, it’s done to add
depth and interest to the hair style. It’s conceived as being different,
and a fresh look that can set you apart from others. Hair needing volume
can benefit from layers, and hair needing the look of additional length
can appear to be longer with the right layering techniques. An excellent
haircut should accentuate your bone structure and overall shape of your
face. One that makes the face appear rounder is the goal. Once you
choose to try a layered look, realize it will take a bit of practice to
style your new hair. Watch your stylist closely and ask questions as she
is finishing your hairstyle. There are so many different ways to layer
the hair that the first consideration is length. Once you know if you
will be going longer or shorter or trimming to prepare for a new style,
you can then plan your style. Take into consideration the shape of your
face. If you have sharp features that you wish to soften, then a layered
bob with a fringe edge may be for you. If you want to go for a bold
chunky look, then an angular cut with layers might be what you choose.
If you see a picture of what you like, do not hesitate to take it to
your stylist. If you have a friend whose hair you admire and can find
out the stylist location, consider going to the very stylist whom
crafted the cut you like. There’s no shame in obtaining the look you
wish for. Just be very complimentary and sincere to those who have the
information you need!
 Layers work with bangs and curls. There is nothing limiting when it
comes to layers. Quite often, your stylist may suggest freshening up
your color or adding streaks and highlights to the layers to create a
dramatic look. If you wish to blend your layers into your style, there
are color patterns that do just that! The following are basic steps to
style your newly layered hair. You will tweak and perfect these steps as
you get comfortable in working with your layers, so enjoy the learning
process. Step 1: Begin by straightening your layers. Dry your
damp hair with a blow dryer and a round brush. Straighten your layers
out by running the brush through your hair and directing the warm air
downward, following the brush. Always brush downward and complete the
stroke, removing the brush from the hair as you continue to style each
layered strand.
Step 2: As you reach the end of each strand, roll the hair
ends a bit under with your brush. This will ensure all hair is laying in
one direction at this point of the process. Once hair is dry, run a pick
or a comb through the sections to separate the layers, and then spray
into place.
It’s easy to create a carefree, fun look just for you!
