Women's haircut "Aurora" has long been firmly among the most popular hairstyles for women of any age. She goes to very young girls and ladies over 50. The image created with the help of Aurora is romantic and sophisticated, while the haircut skillfully emphasizes all the advantages of appearance and hides its imperfections.
Features
This hairstyle was first introduced in the 80s of the last century in Italy, which is considered the birthplace of this trend, which is why many people still call the haircut “Italian”. The main feature of Aurora is its universal performance, even a master with little experience can make such a haircut. The technology here is extremely simple - shortened strands are cut off at the crown, and the length of the remaining hair remains unchanged. In conclusion, the curls are a little milled - and the Aurora is ready.
In its classic version, popular in the USSR of the 90s, a haircut was a little extravagant by today's standards, today more and more girls prefer it because of the lightness of the created appearance and the simplicity of styling. It is very simple to maintain such a haircut in the necessary form, and if necessary, “cut” it into any other, no less spectacular. Italian is performed in several versions - for long, medium and short hair, however, stylists note that shortened hairstyle options do not look so advantageous.
With a short “aurora”, stylists recommend concentrating on the top of the head, and it should be given extra volume. This visually lengthens the face and makes the overall perception of appearance softer due to the roundness of the haircut as a whole. Short styles are performed in different versions, it can be:
- cascading feathers from the occipital region;
- if desired, several strands can be put on the cheekbones, then the face becomes more “thoroughbred”;
- stepping is often made out on the sides - such options are especially good for long faces;
- torn ends - ideal for girls who want not to be like the rest and stand out from the crowd.
Aurora for medium hair makes the style more feminine, the most popular modifications of such a haircut are:
- a ladder below the level of the chin;
- asymmetric bangs;
- oblique ragged bangs to one side;
- pronounced structuring in combination with a shortened bang.
Long options are now less multifaceted, most often they are made in a classic version, but modern girls prefer to add elements to the haircut such as:
- pronounced cap on the crown;
- cascaded curls;
- torn contours and graduation;
- feathers on the top of the head;
- Perfectly smooth tips.
Many often confuse "Aurora" and "cascade." And in fact, at first glance, haircuts are similar to each other and represent a smooth transition between short strands on the crown to long ones on the back of the head and in the temple area. However, in the "Aurora" the crown is more magnificent than in the Cascade, the transitions between the layers are much sharper, and the tips are necessarily milled (in the cascade they are usually left thick).
Advantages and disadvantages
Like any other haircut, the Aurora has its own advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of haircuts include:
- simplicity of execution - the technology is elementary, therefore, to get a beautifully designed head of hair it is not necessary to turn to the services of a master;
- universality - a haircut is suitable for women with any type of hair and an oval face, it is harmonious on ladies of any age and style;
- hairstyle "Aurora" allows you to visually add density and splendor to hair;
- skillfully hides hair defects - even the thinnest and weakened strands look alive, because when they are cut, they overlap each other;
- styling is quite easy and does not require any special styling tools - there is enough hair dryer and comb;
- From the haircut “Aurora” you can create several hairstyles in a variety of styles and images.
Despite the fact that the haircut is universal, you can still highlight some features of the appearance, in which it is better to pay attention to other styles. So, a haircut will not look very stylish on:
- too curly locks;
- soft and fluffy strands;
- naughty hair.
In these cases, it will be quite difficult for the master to style your hair and give it the desired shape, the whole process will take too much time, and during styling you will have to resort to all kinds of straighteners, curling irons and fixing agents, which can cause damage to the hair with frequent use, lead to their fragility and delamination.
How to choose?
By hair type
The style created with the help of “Aurora” will be easy, romantic and unforgettable in any situation, the hairstyle allows you to hide all the flaws of the appearance and, conversely, emphasize all its advantages. It is often recommended to do the hairstyle for those ladies who have common problems with the state of hair, for example, when there are many cut ends or the hair has lost its tone and gloss due to frequent dyeing.
"Aurora" allows you to get rid of damaged strands without losing length and volume, so the haircut is very effective in cases where the girl wants to grow healthy hair. When creating a hairstyle, usually the only task for hairdressers is to visually add volume to a pile of hair and make it fall as magnificent as possible - and the look is very tender and romantic.
If the girl does not have thick hair - this is not a reason to be upset, by combining strands of several lengths, you can always achieve the required volume.
"Aurora" is often done on thick hair, however, young ladies with such a shock should be as careful about haircuts of this type, since the hairstyle involves creating additional volume, and thick strands are magnificent on their own. In this case, it is important that the owners of the haircut constantly monitor its update, from time to time mash and adjust the length of the curls - only in this case it is possible to achieve the desired result. Thin hair is an excellent basis for creating a romantic, sophisticated and elegant look. The strands collected in the "Italian" look thicker and more magnificent, and their shape allows you to give the necessary look and style when laying.
By face type
If we talk about choosing a haircut depending on the shape of the face, then, of course, such a haircut is most suitable for women with triangular, square and oval faces. She skillfully disguises the lack of proportions and brings a touch of femininity and romanticism to the image. To do this, the "Aurora" is better to draw with bangs.
If the shape of the face is round, then it should be softened with slightly milled bangs. With such a face, it is better to give preference to elongated haircut modifications, which allows you to narrow and stretch your face, as well as visually make too simple features more refined. As a result, the oval is extended due to the design of torn strands in the chin area.
Owners of triangular faces can afford beauty experiments with choosing the type of bangs, while it is important to monitor how the locks lie down near the cheekbones and in the area of the chin - if there are defects in this place, then the Aurora masterfully hides them. And for square faces, torn tips along the entire length of the hairstyle are recommended. Such solutions perfectly level all angular forms, reduce the severity of the cheekbones and cheeks.
“Aurora” is suitable for an oval face in any execution, a haircut is performed on hair of different lengths, it hides the asymmetry and disproportionality of features, adds tenderness. Bangs can be different depending on the personal preferences of the woman. The features of the oval face are standard, so you can try absolutely any bows.
Women over 50, when pronounced age-related changes are visible on the face (oval, floated, bruised, sagging chin), it is better to give preference to short versions of the Aurora. Such haircuts visually tighten the contour, and also give the ladies of this elegant age a special charm and nobility.
How to stack?
You can lay the Aurora in a variety of ways, the most popular option is traditional straightened curls. In this case, the hair is covered with heat-protective foam, after which it is pulled out with irons, and at the end of styling they are sprayed with a weak fixation varnish. As a daily option, you can use the most common styling with a hairdryer, it won’t take a lot of time, but you must first apply gel or mousse to your hair for styling.
At the same time, you can give the strands a smaller or larger volume, depending on the wishes of the owner of the hair. This hairstyle is very simple in execution and styling, but at the same time beautiful.
Before a date, you can make a romantic styling that will make the look feminine, delicate and touching. This option provides a curl of curls - you can twist the strands, and then lay them on one side with a bang, and then add some stylish accessory, for example, a hair clip with a flower. If desired, the strands can be collected in the tail - the image turned out to be tender and tremulous. "Aurora" allows you to return to 30 years ago.
If you want to create a style of the 80s, then you need to wet your hair, ruffle the locks with your hands, comb in the front, after which you need to spray hair on the hair and dry it thoroughly with a hairdryer. I comb my hair back in this performance - the hairstyle looks bold, but at the same time it harmoniously combines with any bow.
Evening - in this embodiment, the locks on the top are combed and treated with varnish or gel. Curls curl sideways into a curling iron and connect to each other using an elegant hair clip with decor. Such hairstyles will make a good pair with evening dresses with bare shoulders, in general, the bow is fragile and sophisticated. And, of course, how to do without retro style. To create it on the head at home, you need to comb the strands along the entire length, and wind the ends of the curls up from the head, then fix with varnish and go to conquer the world.
You can make your hair more exclusive with all kinds of ribbons and hoops that will make the girl very stylish and effective.
Beautiful examples
A characteristic feature of the very first haircuts of the Aurora was a rather short length, as well as volume - on the top of the head, the strands are laid very luxuriantly and smoothly move to elongation down. Bangs were an indispensable attribute of hairstyles.
However, this option did not appeal to all the girls, because gradually the length increased. Today, the elongated Aurora variants are considered the main trend. This image effectively emphasizes the style of the lady and shows her personality and impeccable taste.
Remains at the peak of the popularity of “Aurora”, made on medium hair - in this case, the curls reach approximately shoulder level, the top of the head is shaped like a cap, from which a smooth transition begins.
In this version, the presence of any bangs is allowed. The hair in the front is usually shorter than everyone else.
Models with bangs look very impressive, while the Aurora allows you to cut bangs of various types - straight, arched and oblique, their length completely depends on the preferences of the woman and the features of her appearance. For example, for women with a rounded face, it is better to choose milled oblique bangs, they make the face more harmonious, but girls with elongated ovals need to give preference to direct options to the eyebrow line.
In general, the bangs make the Aurora more refined and truly impeccable.
This does not mean at all that aurora without a bang simplifies the face. Not at all if a woman has medium-length hair, then such options are allowed, especially for oval faces - in that case it is better to comb the bangs on one side.
"Aurora" is rarely done on curly hair, but still, if the owner of such hair wants it, then everything is in her hands. True, in this case you should be prepared for a constant and laborious styling of a haircut, but the owner of the wavy head of hair will delight the result - light waves give the image a bit of Italian sophistication and French charm.
“Aurora” with feathers is an avant-garde option, in this case several curls in the neck area leave longer than all other hair, as a rule, highlighting in contrasting colors is additionally made on them.
The cap is another interesting fashionable version of the Aurora, here the hair on the crown takes the shape of a round cap, the strands are not milled and are not calibrated - the length is the same, and in the neck area the curls are cut using cascading technique. This is a pretty extravagant onion.
