French pluck haircut: features and technique

Modern fashionistas lead an active lifestyle and prefer hairstyles that do not require complex styling and tedious care. Such haircuts include the “French pluck”. It has a stable volume and does not require regular adjustments. Hairstyles with French charm and sophistication are performed on short, medium and long hair.

This haircut became fashionable at the end of the 50s of the last century, but even today it does not lose its popularity. "French pluck" is perhaps the most daring and extravagant haircut. Its advantages include the following features.

1. The ability to hide facial imperfections and problem areas of the skin.
2. Suitable for hair of any type (straight, wavy, thin, thick and curly).
3. It implies various options for bangs (straight, oblique, asymmetric and elongated).
4. Looks harmoniously with any type of face (oval, triangular, square).

In some cases, this hairstyle is still worth giving up. For example, if you have sharp cheekbones and a massive chin. Owners of a large neck should also not make a choice in favor of a French haircut. And it will also be ridiculous to look on thin and sparse hair, since they must first be cured with the help of nourishing masks and restoring balms.

The pluck is suitable for ladies with an active lifestyle, since the hairstyle does not require long daily styling - just take a comb and styling products. Haircut has no age restrictions and noticeably young women in adulthood. It is relevant for any female image: from business to sports.Especially exquisitely “French pluck” looks on short and medium hair.

In most cases, French haircuts are performed by professional masters. The technique of creating a "French pluck" is as follows: the hair is divided into sections, and then into separate strands. The main volume remains at the crown. The master with the help of a folding razor creates the effect of torn curls. Some stylists tend to use scissors, but the effect will be far from expected.

On hair of different lengths, such a haircut looks different.

• On a short hair, a haircut opens the face as much as possible and emphasizes the expressiveness of the eyes and lips. The secret of the amazing silhouette is to thin the hair. Thus, a harmonious hairstyle with playful strands of various lengths is obtained. Short strands created using the French pluck technique look simply amazing.

• On medium hair, a hairstyle in the French manner does not lose its appearance for a long time. This option implies a significant amount on the crown and occipital part, and the remaining strands are “cut”. The image complements the original bangs with torn tips. Perfectly haircut looks on straight medium hair. She gently frames the face and hides imperfect proportions. A hairstyle with French chic on medium hair will add a piquant “zest” to any female look.

• Owners of long hair "French pluck" will give not only attractiveness, but also allow you to keep fit perfectly. In most cases, a “ragged” effect is created on the front hair, which gently frames the face. Such a haircut is easy to care for, as it does not require complex styling. Stylish pluck on long hair - feminine and elegant.

French haircuts look great on the hair of natural shades. In addition, plucking implies complex staining (ombre, shatush and highlighting).

Make styling hairstyles in the French manner is quite simple. The main thing is to get creative in this process. To create the simplest styling for workdays, you need a comb and styling products (gel, wax and fixing varnish). My hair and stack with a hairdryer. Apply gel or wax to the hair and give it a “wet” effect. Torn strands look very stylish in this case.

If you want the hair to look natural and airy, the gel can be replaced with mousse. It dries and perfectly fixes the hair. To enhance the effect of torn strands, we take a curling iron and stretch the front curls. Then we cover the hair with varnish. For special occasions, you can create a cute feminine look by twisting locks on curlers or creating curls with the help of a curling iron. So, we take:

• thin comb and brush with natural bristles;
• styling (foam and varnish);
• large curlers.

My hair and rub the foam. We wind the curls all over the head on the curlers and stand for 30-40 minutes. Then we remove the devices for curling hair and comb the hair. For better fixation, hair is lightly varnished.

Another option for evening styling will be “waves” in the “retro” style. We comb clean hair, apply styling products (mousse or gel) and fix them at the roots with invisibility. Using forceps we make retro waves and fix with varnish. A similar image will be created on medium and long hair, cut in a French manner. The hairstyle can be decorated with original clips, bright hairpins and even rims of different colors.
