When choosing a type of hairstyle, it is necessary to proceed from the shape of the face and hair structure. After all, a haircut for very long hair should be in harmony with the appearance of the girl.

Ladder is most suitable for girls with a face:

• round;
• triangular;
• square.

She can be with or without bangs. Depending on the preferences and ideas of the image of the bangs, there may be:

• torn;
• elongated;
• straight;
• oblique, etc.

For triangular oblique bangs will suit individuals, oval adjustments will be even and straight. If there is no desire to do it, the hairstyle in this case is better to choose another one, since the haircut will emphasize elongation even more visually. And for the remaining square persons fit stepped curls in the upper part of the head, which can smooth out excessive rigidity and rudeness.

A short flight of stairs is considered an ideal solution if the hair is straight and not very curly. Very curly hair interferes with the visual perception of phased waves of hairstyles. Therefore, in order to achieve the desired effect, curls need constant straightening, which can lead to a deterioration in their quality. Therefore, the owners of curls still better to cut their hair differently.

Women whose hair is a little wavy, fit haircuts to medium length.

Thick hair will look good with a large distance between tiers. And for hair with a thin structure, minimal intervals are ideal, which will make the hairstyle light and airy.

Variations of the ladder can be different, but all of them require a certain creative mess. Transitions are sharp and well defined, and can be invisible, making the image of a girl more integral.

When analyzing the shape of the face and structure of curls, one always thinks about what the styling will be, since everything in the image should be interconnected.

The basis of the haircut is the shape of an elongated bean, when with the help of thinning scissors, the steps are cut along the entire length of the hair. The downside here is that maintaining styling is required, and this takes extra time and requires skill.

Its main varieties:

• has a start in the face;
• asymmetric;
• goes all over the head;
• may be with or without bangs;
• torn.

A classic variation is a haircut from the shoulders when the ladder is done only below or only the front strands are cut in this way.

But it looks especially impressive on highlighted hair, where beautiful color transitions will be visible. Giving the hair an original shade visually creates a special distinct density. Moreover, in the beauty industry, coloring techniques are becoming more and more. These are such as:

• hut;
• Ombre
• California highlighting, etc.

A voluminous and ragged haircut is considered the most relevant and goes well with a round face.

Cutting on thick hair with an extension helps to remove excess weight from the lower part. It is also good for those who do not have voluminous strands, this problem is also solved.

At the back, the edge can remain flat or can be done in a semicircle. The lines here will go from the level of the shoulders to the middle of the back and look great on straight hair.

Another kind of semicircle will be the so-called "Fox's tail". In this case, a V-shaped corner is formed, the middle of which, when shearing, remains the longest and visually resembles a tail. The option is very popular and does not lose its position. Both types are suitable for straight straight hair.

Asymmetric haircuts for long hair are not very popular, since many are sorry to remove most of their length on one side than on the other. This method is suitable for impudent girls who are not afraid to experiment.

Cutting a short flight of stairs is very popular, as its execution technique is subject to not only masters. It is also done by non-professionals at home, when the curls are simply tied in a tail in front of the forehead and cut at a right angle.

In the salons, they are cut off in layers, in which each new one is made shorter by 2-3 mm of the previous layer. The scheme is quite simple - in the upper part the hair will be the shortest, and from below, on the contrary, elongated.

Before starting a haircut, you should decide:

• with form;
• length;
• take into account the nuances of appearance.

The order of the work:

1. Wash, moisturize and comb your hair.
2. Divided into 4 parts and separately fixed - two beams from the bottom and top and two on the sides. If there is a bang, it is located separately or is evenly fixed at the temples.
3. Work begins with the occipital region of the head. This part of the hair is combed, pulled and cut according to the set length. Hair is removed at a right angle and gradually pulled to the crown. Thus, the beginning of the ladder is set. The cut off curl will be the control, along which other zones will be equal.
4. Measuring along the cut-off part, the remaining harvested areas are sheared at right angles. There they also choose the main strand and form hair on the temples along it.
5. Then trim the length of all separated parts.
6. When the turn of the bangs occurs, the defects found are eliminated, and if there is a desire for a "torn effect", then thinning scissors are taken.
7. The completion of the haircut includes drying and styling with a hairdryer.
