The hairstyle is not losing its relevance. This is such an option for hair styling, in which the curls vary in their length. A hairstyle can have all kinds of design options, but in this material we will talk about a ladder without a bang.
Advantages and disadvantages
Fashion is always coming back. The short flight of stairs was famous back in the 70s of the last century, but no less common and loved by women today. This haircut is perfect for evening hairstyles, does not require special skills for everyday styling. Long-haired girls can refresh the hairstyle, leaving the main length. If you want a bold image - do a haircut with torn strands and a large distance between the steps. If you like a light romantic charm, make a smooth transition into a neat oval on long strands.
Like any haircut, the ladder will look messy on sick and unkempt hair. The visited tips of the ladder are visible immediately along the entire length. Owners of a short haircut will not be able to make a neat “licked” tail due to the insufficient length of the front strands. Too wavy and curly hair is more difficult to style.
With caution, a ladder should treat girls with very thick hair: a haircut will add additional volume to the hairstyle. The elongated face, due to the haircut option without bangs, will lengthen even more.
Who is going to?
A short flight of stairs without a bang is good for girls with a small forehead. The face visually stretches, excessive roundness or protruding ears will hide behind the falling strands. Wide cheekbones or jaw, close set eyes are masked. Proper styling will hide the excessive angularity of the face.
A short flight of stairs is a great solution for girls with a square face, as it will smooth out its stiffness. Narrow and triangular faces will become more proportional due to the front strands and the total volume of the haircut. A round face visually lengthens a ladder without a bang.
The ladder will look especially advantageous on girls with sparse hair, as it will visually increase their density. It is best to make steps for owners of straight or slightly wavy hair, as styling will be made many times easier.
Also, a variety of color schemes are suitable for haircuts. Highlighted curls will make it possible to emphasize individual strands, giving the image expressiveness.
Kinds
Types of stairs can be divided according to two criteria: the length of the hair and the distribution of strands on the head. With the second criterion, everything is simple: the steps can only be on the strands of the facial oval or all over the head. The first criterion is worth dwelling in more detail.
On long hair
Such a haircut does not affect the overall length, gives the hair a shape. On long hair, you can experiment: make large intervals between the steps, giving the hair a ragged look, or smooth out the cut line as much as possible, getting a smooth uniform oval. The first step can start from the jaw or shoulder - the master chooses the option that suits your type of face.
On medium hair
Better for straight strands. Wavy or curly hair of medium length will have to be regularly styled with a hairdryer to maintain a well-groomed look of hairstyle, because of which the tips will begin to quickly split.
This option is suitable for girls of different types, because it is able to quietly mask problem areas. The first step comes from the cheekbone or jaw line. The higher the ladder begins, the stronger the transition will be visible.
On short hair
The most individual haircut. Sharp, torn transitions are preferred. It requires the greatest care and styling with the help of foam, mousse or varnish. The option without bangs should be used with caution and only with a competent master, in order to avoid artificial rupture of the hairstyle, a feeling of incompleteness.
When choosing a haircut, focus on the density and type of your hair. Also on the Internet there are a large number of applications where you can "try on" different hairstyles for yourself.
How to make at home?
Necessary materials for a haircut at home: two mirrors (for viewing front and rear), scissors, a comb with small cloves, hair clips. The room should be well lit.
Pay particular attention to the choice of scissors. The best option is hot, preventing the formation of brittle tips. In second place are hairdressers. If you take ordinary scissors, check if they are sharp enough. Due to a blunt instrument, the hair will begin to tangle and exfoliate.
The procedure for creating a short flight of stairs without a bang must be strictly observed so that the result does not bring disappointment.
- Moisturize your hair, as cutting dry strands will speed up their cross section. An exception is the use of hot scissors.
- Divide the hair into 4 square parts and secure with clips. When dividing, consider where the parting will take place.
- Select a strand from the first sector. The formation of strands begins with the back of the head.
- Lift the strand at a right angle to the head and cut off the excess hair. Tip: hold the scissors at an angle of 45 degrees relative to the plane of the head (parallel to the fingers clamping the strand).
- Cut the excess hair of each strand of the sector along the length of the first strand. Each strand should be parallel to the previous one. Gradually move from the back of the head to the temples.
- Having worked all the strands, comb and trim the hair. At this stage, they do not need to be delayed.
- Dry and blow-dry your hair.
On long hair, we recommend that the upper step be cut off at the base of the neck. On short, the upper short step is done at the crown.
A simplified version of the haircut ladder without bangs on medium-length hair:
- tie the tail on the frontal part;
- cut to the desired length (orient yourself so that the upper step starts from the earlobe);
- spread your tail and trim your haircut.
Tip: before experimenting on your own hair, practice on special dolls for hairdressers or other people. Cutting your hair is much more difficult - this is far from being obtained by all specialists. Do not save time - it will not pay off in case of failure. Do not forget how long you have grown your hair before cutting.
It is better to renew a haircut every 1.5–2 months to prevent split hair.
Styling options
A correctly made ladder on well-groomed hair does not require complex styling. Straight and slightly wavy hair is particularly easy to style.
The classic types of styling stairs without bangs: tips inward or outward. For both options, you will need a hairdryer, mousse, foam or other fixing means, brush brushing. The flow of hot air must be directed from top to bottom. Do not try to wind the strand on the brush, but perform accurate twisting movements, as if combing the hair in or out. The option outward is more suitable for girls with a face of the correct oval shape, as it will not hide obvious flaws. For a triangular and square face, twisted inside strands are suitable.
If we talk about straight tips, then this option is better for thick hair, as it visually reduces the volume of the hairstyle. Apply strong fixing agents (gel or wax) to the tips. Dry your hair with a hairdryer, pulling off the ends. Direct a stream of the hair dryer from top to bottom.
Daily styling can be done in five minutes: lower your head and dry your hair, directing the flow of air from the roots down. So that the tips do not fluff from the hair dryer, apply foam or mousse to them.
To get light careless waves, blow dry a hair twisted into a bun for 5–7 minutes. Fix the effect with varnish. Also, a careless effect can be created if you gently squeeze each strand of loose hair during drying. The latter option is not suitable for girls with straight hair, as the curls will not hold the desired shape and will quickly disintegrate.
Owners of curly hair just apply a foam over the entire length and distribute the strands around the face, emphasizing the difference between them. It is desirable to fix the result with varnish.
A short flight of stairs without bangs allows you to create beautiful hairstyles. Here are some options:
- ponytail or bundle with free front strands;
- a knot of short strands tied to the back of the head;
- strands curled with a curling iron, hairdryer or curlers are suitable for a romantic look, while do not forget to use thermal protection when aggressively affecting the ends.
Do not be afraid to experiment, change, look at your image in a new way. Changing hairstyles helps to refresh everyday life, improve mood, and sometimes radically change your life. Every morning, smile at your reflection in the mirror and remember that you are beautiful.
