Curtain bangs work on thin hair when the triangle section starts further back toward the crown than feels natural. The fringe should end between the cheekbone and jaw, and the rest of the cut should use light supportive layers, not thinning. Add root lift or dry shampoo. Curtain bangs for thin hair make a lot […]
The lowest-maintenance haircuts work with your natural texture: a blunt bob or collarbone lob for fine straight hair, a choppy shag for wavy or thick hair, and a dry-cut curly or tapered shape for curls and coils. Short cuts need trims every 4-6 weeks, longer ones every 6-8. Low maintenance haircuts do not have to […]
Thin or fine hair looks fuller with a few long layers that start mid-shaft or below the cheekbones, cut over a blunt, point-cut perimeter. Skip razors, heavy thinning shears and short choppy layers, which strip away the weight that makes ends look dense. The biggest worry about layers for thin hair is that they will […]
To fix a bad haircut, give it a few days and restyle it yourself. Then pin down the exact problem and go back to the salon with a photo and specific 'I' statements. The correction is usually blended layers or going slightly shorter. Hide the grow-out with parting, texture and accessories. Few things feel worse […]
Square faces soften best with cuts that add crown height, start layers at or just below the chin (the collarbone on very long hair), and pair a deep side part or cheekbone-length fringe. Think soft graduated bobs, collarbone lobs, curtain bangs and piecey pixies. Skip any blunt line at jaw width. The best haircuts for […]
The most flattering haircuts for a heart-shaped face soften the forehead and add fullness at the jaw. Try a chin-length or A-line bob, a lob with layers starting at the chin, curtain or side-swept bangs, or long loose waves. Skip heavy blunt bangs and flat, slicked-back styles. The best haircuts for a heart-shaped face work […]
Cherry cola hair is a deep level 3-5 brown with a red-violet reflect. The easiest versions to wear are an all-over gloss, hand-painted balayage and black cherry. Lean violet if your undertone is cool and redder if it is warm, and book a gloss every four to six weeks. Cherry cola is the brunette’s way […]
The easiest oversized bow hairstyles are a low chignon, a half-up style and a sleek low ponytail. Each one gives the bow's clip a fixed base to grip. Anchor the bow to an elastic, a bun or crossed pins, never to loose hair, so it doesn't slide or tip. The oversized bow has grown out […]
A feathered haircut flatters a round face when its face-framing layers start 1-2 inches below the jaw instead of at the cheekbone, and the razor-cut or point-cut ends flip back from the face. Collarbone lobs, long layers and center-parted Farrah flips are the easiest places to start. The feathered haircut is back, and it is […]
The most flattering braided hairstyles for a round face add height at the crown or a long vertical line, like halo braids, high braided ponytails, raised Dutch braids and long knotless braids. Pair them with a deep side part or a zigzag part rather than adding width at the cheeks. These braided hairstyles for round […]
