A haircut to the shoulders is the most convenient option for those who like the length on their hair, but do not want to spend a lot of time to style and comb them. There are a lot of options for haircuts for such a length, so even the most demanding woman will surely find a hairstyle suitable for herself. The average length of hair never goes out of style, it is always relevant. Only the methods of cutting and styling hair change.
Who is it for?
The main reason for the enduring popularity of haircuts on medium hair is versatility. Such hairstyles will suit absolutely any woman, regardless of her age, complexion, style. A rare lady will look inharmonious with shoulder-length hair. In addition, such hairstyles are very practical: you do not need to spend a lot of time styling, most haircuts need only to dry them with a hairdryer. The absence of a bang also simplifies life - you do not need to cut it regularly, trim it, or lay it down.
Another undoubted advantage of a haircut to the shoulders is the ability to create a lot of hairstyles on its basis. Curls can be worn loose, collected in a tail, a bundle, curled large or small curls, braided, laid in a shell. A women's haircut without a bang to the shoulders can be very different - both in shape, in style, and in volume. Choosing the one that is right for you, you need to consider many factors:
- own style - young ladies who wear clothes exclusively in a romantic style, asymmetry and torn ends of hair are unlikely to go;
- structure of your hair - owners of curly hair will not be able to turn them into smooth with a "mirror" shine with all the desire, as well as to achieve a perfectly even hairline;
- features of their appearance - face type, head shape (for example, for owners of a high forehead it is better to stop on a hairstyle with a bang).
For those who have an oval-shaped face, you can choose almost any haircut, being wary of strands descending along the face below the chin line. Such haircuts can visually stretch your face and violate the correct proportions.
But young ladies with round faces, such hairstyles are very suitable.
They visually turn the circle into an oval and bring the face shape closer to perfect.
Girls with a face in the shape of a triangle (or heart-shaped, as it is sometimes called) will look advantageous with hair cut in a cascade. If the hair is curly - even better. But it is better not to wear a straight parting, with a triangular shape the side will look much more advantageous - it will balance the wide top of the head and hide it.
The same applies to girls with a square face shape - a straight parting will turn the face into two symmetrical rectangles.
The only type of person who should refrain from hairstyles without bangs to the shoulders is elongated, elongated. The vertical hair will make the face even longer, and this is absolutely not the effect that in this case I want to achieve.
It is better to choose a bang and thereby bring the proportions of the face closer to the ideal.
Types and Features
It is better to choose a simple hairstyle, but at the same time refined. It is good if the hair is cut in such a way that it will be enough to simply dry it with a hairdryer so that it “lies” like in the salon. Most relevant in the upcoming season:
- strands scattering on the shoulders;
- side parting;
- square (classic);
- extension bean.
Those who want a little (or a lot) of imagination can, as an addition, offer a shaved temple (or whiskey), asymmetry, artificially created sloppiness, creative coloring. Young ladies who need additional volume can be offered graduation, various "ladders" and "cascades".
This will allow you to create the volume exactly where you need it at the stage of cutting, and to avoid tedious styling every time after washing your hair.
Square
Kare, with or without bangs, is a classic hairdresser fashion. It then loses relevance, then again acquires. The caret lines should be strict, straight. A haircut is only suitable for owners of perfectly oval faces. Ladies with a round face can only afford a square with a side parting.
Very often, creative coloring is applied to the square, for example, the top layer of hair is a natural shade, and the bottom is iridescent. So, the classic gets a modern sound. Multilayer caret is also in fashion now, it looks especially good on curly or curly hair.
Bean
Unlike a bob, soft lines are characteristic for the bean, the length of the hair is heterogeneous, most often the strands near the face are longer than the occipital ones. Bob is ideal if you need to demonstrate a beautiful neckline, in addition, he visually corrects the cheekbones, making them more convex.
Cascade
At its core, a cascade is a difference in length. However, the hair is cut in such a way that the length difference is not visible to the naked eye, as in a ladder, where the “steps” are clearly visible. A cascade is a smooth transition of length to add volume to the hair (most often in the crown area). Ideal for thick and thin hair.
Ladder
A haircut with a ladder is obtained when, to give additional volume, the hair is cut in such a way that they form steps, that is, the difference in lengths is clearly visible. The ladder looks best on curly hair - both data from nature and obtained by long-term styling.
The image becomes romantic and very light.
Grunge
The mysterious word “grunge” in the case of a medium-length haircut means only the presence of light artistic mess (of course, created by the skilled hands of a hairdresser).If you work in an office with a strict dress code, grunge is unlikely to suit you, however, grunge may be more appropriate in terms of style for girls.
The main thing is to use styling products to a minimum, otherwise the mess will turn into a groomed and untidy nest.
Sesson
This haircut in its classic version is performed on the average length of hair from one ear, going down in a perfectly even semicircle, and then also rising to the other ear. The shape should be perfectly even and clear. The classics of the genre presuppose a semicircular short bang, but now the session has undergone many variations and can be created without a bang. The haircut is very effective, allows you to demonstrate expressive facial features and a beautiful neck, gives volume and fits easily, but requires a lot from its owner.
- It will not suit either chubby women or ladies with a wide face, only oval.
- It requires frequent shape correction, as the haircut must have a clear geometry.
- It will not make it possible to make a tail or braid a braid.
- You need to find a master who can perform this haircut. Not everyone can do it perfectly.
Selection recommendations
Face shape
Best for face shape correction is a cascade haircut. It will soften the rectangular shape of the face, hide a low forehead, and also make invisible the fact that the hair is not in its best form. The wide face visually narrows the "ladder". Steps should not be large. The ladder is good for girls with high cheekbones. But the square face asymmetry.
An asymmetric haircut will perfectly smooth the corners of the square, it is better if on one side of the face the hair is approximately up to the shoulder, and on the other - to cover the earlobe (you can not even cover it especially bold). It is better to graduate the lines of the side strands to create an additional effect of heterogeneity, “tearing” of the hair. Bob may be asymmetric, then it will suit wide-faced girls.
However, it should be remembered that even the asymmetry in the bean remains soft and smooth, without suggesting torn lines and sharp corners.
By hair type
Curly hair is best cut haircut "ladder". It will make the mop volumetric, while light. For thin hair of strong density, a cascade is suitable. He will add extra volume to the crown without lengthy styling, and the hair will not look sleek. The cascade is also suitable for girls with sparse hair, it will create the appearance of density for them. For straight hair, a session, bob and bob are suitable. A square can look good on curly hair, but the haircut should be multi-layered.
Fashion trends
All of these haircuts are relevant and fashionable because of their versatility and practicality. In the current season, bob-car is gaining popularity - as the name implies, this is a combination of two haircuts. It can be combined with graduation, and with thinning, and with creative staining.
The cascade also does not give up positions, everyone loves it - and the owners of thick and heavy hair, since it is the cascade that can tame it by force, and those whose hair is sparse and not at all magnificent, just because thanks to this haircut the coveted volume and illusion of plenty of hair.
A multi-layered square is another “hit” of the season, as it allows you to style your hair very differently and suits most women. Due to the multilayer haircut, an additional volume is achieved, but at the same time there is no “at home on the head” effect.
