The average length of hair is considered one of the most versatile. Her happy owners can afford a variety of haircuts and hairstyles. A huge plus is the ability to endlessly experiment with your own image. It is worth making a slight graduation, changing color or just curling curls, and the image will be completely different.

Kinds

With all the variety of haircuts on the average length, they can still be divided into types. Each master has his own secrets of translating one idea or another into life. therefore even one and also a haircut can vary in nuances.

A major role is played by hair color. So, the selected locks repeatedly emphasize the beauty of a multilayer haircut. Solid color perfectly shows itself on haircuts like a square. Consider the most popular types of haircuts that exist at the moment.

Cascade

A haircut that does not go out of fashion for more than a decade. First of all, stylists recommend doing it to girls who want to achieve additional volume. It is great for fine hair. The strands of various lengths do not “press” each other, but are in free fall.

The cascade has a lot of variations. Haircuts will look different if you just change the length of the top or bottom layer.

In addition, you can add personality by making locks of various lengths throughout the head.

There are three main types of this haircut: double, graduated, ragged. In the first case, two rows of hair that differ in length will be clearly visible on the head. In the second, the locks of one layer can have different lengths, but you can still trace their general orientation. In the latter, the hairstyle does not have clear layers.When laying, it seems that the locks stick out like feathers.

The versatility of hairstyles is the ability to change it using various styling. It can be beautiful curls that will beautifully fall down. Moreover, each of them will differ from the neighboring one in length.

Or you can use the iron, giving the hair perfect smoothness, but in this case you should not rely on volume.

Ladder

Very feminine haircut. She is preferred by both young beauties and older ladies. A huge plus is the fact that the length of the hair remains intact. This is especially valuable for those who wish to grow hair.

As for the main feature, it consists in the fact that the locks near the face are trimmed obliquely. So, the closest will have a minimum length, then lengthening and comparing with the length of the main mass of hair.

If you have thin hair by nature, then such a haircut will help create additional volume. Stacking it is quite simple. First you need to create a basal volume, then twist the ends of the "ladder" to the face. With this hairstyle, you will feel comfortable both in the office and at a friendly party.

Bean

In the classic sense, bob is a rather short haircut. The length of the strands near the face barely reaches the end of the chin. But on its basis, stylists create and elongated bean. At the same time, the length on the occipital part remains rather short. In front, they can go down almost to the shoulders. And to call this haircut short no one will allow.

Another feature is milled strands. Without this, it is difficult to achieve the volume that is characteristic of this hairstyle. Many mistakenly believe that this haircut makes it impossible to create different images. But this is not so. One has only to change the place of the parting, make it oblique, or even comb the curls back, as the whole image changes.

Of the features, the need to constantly adjust the haircut can be noted.

At the back of the head, the length remains small, so even growing a couple of centimeters, the deformation of the entire hairstyle becomes very noticeable.

Elongated caret

Are there still girls who have never in their lives cut their hair under the caret. But if, in its classical interpretation, a haircut involves a short length (approximately to the earlobes or higher), then the elongated version can even go down to the shoulders.

The peculiarity of this type of haircut in an even cut. Remember the image of Cleopatra. The ideal smoothness of hair is the same length, and yet the same smooth cut. And if the ancient Egyptian beauty preferred to wear it with bangs, then you can do without her.

It is a mistake to assume that such a haircut does not require styling. Many people think that once the hair is cut as naturally as possible, then they will lie on their own without external interference. If you rely on this, in the end you will get just hanging strands, devoid of volume and the desired smoothness.

But to create volume on such a hairstyle is not difficult, since the length is small. It is only necessary to lower your head down and blow dry. Perfect directness will help to achieve ironing.

Graduation

The name of the concept of graduation comes from the word "degree". This explains the main feature of this type of hairstyles. The master needs to hold the scissors at a certain angle in order to achieve smooth transition length.

Compared to the cascade, they have both common properties and differences. The similarity lies in the different lengths of the strands throughout the head. But in the cascade variant, you can easily see the various layers. When graduating, the transition is carried out so smoothly that sometimes it is not possible to see it.

There are three main directions of graduation. In the first embodiment, the hair cut at the bottom is a straight line, but you can see a smooth transition of length. The thicker the hair, the larger the transition line. In the second embodiment, a change in the length of the strands along the entire length is allowed. So, on the top there can be very short locks, but the total length reaches the shoulder line.

With the latter option, the length of the strands can be changed from the face to the back of the head in one or the other direction.

Asymmetry

It is difficult to list all the possible variations of this type of hairstyles. Each girl can choose her own style. In addition, masters often offer interesting ideas for their implementation.

In general terms, then asymmetry can be observed in the length of the hair on different layers. In this case, it will be very similar to a cascade hairstyle. Another option may be a hairstyle in which the length of the hair on the left and right side of the face will be different. Moreover, it can smoothly flow one into another, or the transition can be very sharp.

The latest options include haircuts with a shaved temple on one side. Such haircuts were at the peak of popularity a couple of years ago, but even today girls who want to show their personality often make this extravagant option.

Clear geometry

It is worth noting that such haircuts require from their owners an ideal skin condition and a correct oval of the face. Only in this case they add beauty. Clear lines emphasize the face. And if even minor rashes are observed on the skin, then everything will be very noticeable.

To emphasize a clear geometry helps a classic smooth bangs. Haircut does not require special skills from the master or the use of non-standard approaches. One has only to cut the hair in a straight line, in a similar way to do with bangs. If the hair is thin, but you want to add volume to it, then you should refuse to cut it. It is also contraindicated for girls whose hair is subject to section. The edges will not hold the line so clearly.

One possible solution may be to periodically trim the cut ends.

"Aurora"

Aurora hairstyle was invented by stylists many years ago. Depending on fashion trends, she underwent some changes, but remained one of the most popular. If in the 80s it was fashionable to make the top layer very short, creating a kind of cap on the head, and the ends had practically no volume and hung in straight strands, today this option is not in trend.

The second name of the hairstyle is Italian, since it comes from this sunny country. She is characterized by lightness and airiness. She, like a cascade, there is a difference in length, but here it is more pronounced. I.e the first layer is much shorter than the second.

This approach allows you to create very feminine and at the same time voluminous haircuts.

With a bang

We already wrote about the option of hairstyles with bangs when considering a square. But the choice is not limited to this. It can be absolutely any length, slope and density.

Thanks to this, a variety of images is achieved. After all, any girl will confirm that it is only necessary to make a bang, without changing the hairstyle itself, how the whole image changes. Among the whole variety, several main directions can be distinguished.

Slanting bangs

It is ideal for haircuts with graduation or cascade type. Different lengths of strands will be emphasized by the slope of the bangs. With this embodiment, the bangs you can hide some of the flaws, but still the face will remain quite open.

And also it will be appreciated by girls who, by nature, have a whirlwind in an area close to the forehead. It is very difficult to lay it in an even bang, but if you reduce the length in this part and profile the zone at the roots, then the bang will lie in an even layer.

Torn bangs

This option is often found in appropriate hairstyles. If all the strands are made using this technology, then the straight bangs will look like a foreign element.

Classic bangs

Everyone imagines this variation. It perfectly disguises an excessively high forehead; it is also well suited for young ladies with round features.

Debut

Another haircut, in which you can observe different lengths of strands. This is a kind of symbiosis of a ladder and a cascade. The fact is that around the face, the locks resemble a ladder and beautifully frame the face. In terms of the bulk of the hair, the length will also not be uniform.

Another distinguishing feature is the presence of a bang. In the classic version, it is always present, although you can do without it. It all depends on your face shape and personal preferences.

Haircuts are quite difficult to perform. The wizard must think through the length of each layer in advance and predict how it will look on a particular client.

Girls with an elongated oval face should abandon it, but for those who want to adjust an excessively round or square shape, it will do just fine.

Creative haircuts

It is worth opening any specialized magazine for hairdressers, as you will see very unusual and creative haircuts. Most of them will remain forever “museum” exhibits, because only the most daring (if any) can decide to bring them to life.

But sometimes even the most avant-garde movements move from the catwalks to everyday life. So it was with shaved temples (when on one side the temple is shaved to the minimum length, but on the other the length remains), which at first were perceived by many negatively. The same trend was observed for hair of unusual colors.

If you are determined to create something unusual on your head, then why not try it. The only serious restriction may be a strict dress code at work or school. Although in this situation it is possible to choose an option that will not be so extravagant, it will no longer be possible to call it ordinary.

How to choose?

Masters rarely share haircuts by hair color. There is no such hairstyle that would ideally fit blondes, but did not look at brunettes and vice versa. Here, attention is paid to other individual parameters. One of the main is the oval of the face. There are several types of them. And when choosing a haircut, it will be a fatal mistake not to take this feature into account.

Indeed, even if the master does his job perfectly, but the haircut, by definition, does not fit your face type, it will only spoil the image.

Face shape

Oval

This type is considered the standard. Most existing hairstyles are suitable for this type. This allows you to endlessly experiment with your own image. But nevertheless, it is worth highlighting those haircuts that emphasize the natural beauty. These include, but are not limited to:

  • square;
  • bean;
  • cascade;
  • the above options in combination with bangs.

With an oval shape of the face, such a hairstyle as a ladder will also look beautiful. She frames her face beautifully, emphasizing a beautiful oval.

But strict haircuts, with clear geometry, will also look good.

A circle

Many girls make a critical mistake when choosing hairstyles for this type of face. Considering that their shape is already too round, they deprive hair of any volume, because they think that this will make the face even wider.

If the hair is straight strands lying around the face, this will further emphasize its shape. It will seem bigger. The additional volume will divert attention to yourself, making the oval visually smaller. Therefore, many stylists agree that the following haircuts are suitable for a round type of face:

  • asymmetry (visually corrects the shape of the face, giving it the right proportion);
  • with an oblique bang (in this case, part of the forehead will be hidden, which will significantly change the proportions);
  • voluminous (its main part should be concentrated in the upper part);
  • cascade and ladder (locks near the face will hide the cheeks, and long curls visually stretch the face).

Rhombus

This face shape is very interesting. It is impossible not to notice a girl whose oval face resembles a real diamond. It is characterized by a narrow forehead, wide cheekbones and a pointed chin.

Many celebrities have this type of face and know very well which haircuts are best here. First of all, you should understand what you definitely should not do with your hair. And this is primarily the volume in the area of ​​the cheekbones. This will only aggravate the situation, making the cheekbones even wider, and the chin and forehead visually narrower. And also it is not recommended to smoothly comb the hair and put them all in the tail.

Consider those successful examples that emphasize the dignity of its owner. In the first places are elongated bean and square. Delicately framing the face, they will hide cheekbones too wide and balance the oval.

You can try options with an extended bang. This will add mystery and sophistication.

In second place are haircuts that will fit in a certain way, namely: in curls or curls. If you have curly strands by nature, then you only need to emphasize this with an appropriate haircut. Girls with straight hair will have to make a little effort to create beautiful curls. But the result is worth it.

It is worth noting that for this type of face, haircuts of medium length are the best suited.

The cheekbones will be too short, and the long ones will not emphasize the natural beauty and will not decorate the image.

Square

This type of face oval is characterized by a wide forehead and a massive chin. The task of stylists will visually turn it into a classic oval. First of all, you should understand what mistakes should be avoided. This is primarily the volume in the area of ​​the cheekbones and chin. This will only visually increase them, making the proportions even more massive.

Another mistake may be the choice of hairstyles with perfectly straight and even strands. This is contraindicated, since in no way correct the oval.

And here is a list of haircuts that will not only decorate the owners of a square face, but also adjust the proportions.

  • Haircuts with long bangs. If you have never worn such a bang, then at first you may be uncomfortable. Strands will strive to fall on the face. Therefore, do not be afraid to use fixing agents so as not to be distracted by the hair during the day.
  • Ladder with curls. Elegant and romantic option. You do not need to put the entire mass of hair in curls. It will be enough to work out the strands that make up the ladder. On the rest it will be enough to curl the ends a little.
  • Asymmetric haircuts of medium length. If you have a habit of removing loose hair from your ear, then this is your option. The fact is that the shorter side is often tucked behind the ear, while the long side frames the face. This is a very convenient and practical haircut. The option with curls also looks very interesting.
  • Haircuts with parting and without parting. Parting in the middle is strictly contraindicated for this type of face. He will only focus on the broad forehead. The oblique parting will distract attention and slightly shift the emphasis from the big forehead to the hairstyle itself.

Rectangle

If you think that nature has treated you unfairly, having awarded such a shape to your face, then look at the list of celebrities who have this shape clearly expressed. And all of them are considered recognized beauties and sex symbols. These include Angelina Jolie, Sarah Jessica Parker and Salma Hayek. Is there a daredevil who reproaches them with the lack of femininity or beauty.

The thing is that they skillfully learned to choose hairstyles for their individual characteristics.

We are also in a hurry to share with you the secret of current haircuts that are suitable for a rectangular type of face. The average length visually lengthens the face and makes it rounder. Here are some tips to listen to if you want to look stylish and harmonious.

  • Choose hairstyles with bangs. Moreover, it should not be too rare or torn. It is better to give preference to long or classic length. Make sure that it is quite thick.
  • The optimal length will be a haircut no shorter than the chin line, but no longer than the shoulders. Just this range refers to the average length. Therefore, we can safely say that all multilevel haircuts of medium length will suit this type.
  • Volume. But do not create a magnificent volume from the roots. It will be better if it is located in the temple area. This will visually change the proportions of the face, making it more rounded.

    And, of course, do not forget about the type of person that we wrote about above.

    How to make?

    Cutting your hair yourself is very difficult. Even experienced craftsmen trust their haircut to colleagues, since it is almost impossible to cut hair located on the parietal part.

    But even in this case, it will be useful to know how, nevertheless, is the way to perform modern haircuts. This will help you explain in more detail and clearly to the master what you expect as a result.

    Elongation Rack

    This version of the hairstyle remains at the peak of popularity among women's haircuts for several seasons. Let's try to understand all the subtleties of its creation.

    To begin, separate the hair with a straight part and collect on the crown in two bundles so that they do not interfere with the process. Separate a thin strand from below. Holding it with two fingers, cut to the desired length. This will be the minimum length of your haircut.

    Next, freeing strand after strand, we begin to form a haircut. We take only those strands that belong to the occipital part. In order to achieve elongation closer to the face, the strands must be pulled at an angle of 15 degrees with respect to the head. The scissors also keep a slight inclination. Due to this, each subsequent strand will be longer than the previous one, while there will be no sharp drop in height.

    Next comes the turn of the temples. We free the side of the lower temporal strand, we also pull it off and cut it off. At the same time, it should be the same length as the occipital. If you want a more identified transition, then the scissors must be kept at an angle (to lengthen to the face).

    Next, we follow the same principle as on the occipital part: we release thin locks and cut them, pulling them at an angle. When done, comb your hair and trim the ends. The caret for elongation should have an even cut.

    Bean

    This hairstyle is distinguished by a more pronounced volume in the occipital part and in the temple area. This is achieved due to the fact that the master moves upward, lock by lock, they become shorter. But you will not observe a clear difference. Such a model haircut requires some skill from the master, because in the end it should turn out with an ideal transition of length.

    Divide hair into 5 parts: 2 temporal zones, parietal, lower and upper occipital. Each must be braided and stabbed. Starting from the lower occipital area, separate the strands behind the strands. Pull it slightly at an angle and cut to the desired length. Take the next one and also pull it and cut it.

    You can not worry about the fact that the locks are cut off in this position, each next one will be slightly shorter.

    A similar manipulation will need to be done with the upper occipital and temporal zones. The parietal zone is most recently processed. Here it is necessary to move from the bottom up to the central parting. To get the hairstyle volume and finished look, profile the strands. Be careful not to damage the length.

    Ladder

    There are several options for performing haircuts. A huge plus is the fact that if you are satisfied with the total length, and you do not want to touch it, then you can easily make the ladder yourself.

    If necessary, reduce the length of the bulk of the hair, you should start with it. To do this, separate the hair with a straight part. Starting at the back of the head, separate the strand behind the strand and trim to the desired length. This will have to be done first from one side, then from the other side. When you reach the ear line, stop.

    Now we pass to the direct formation of a short flight of stairs. To do this, comb the thin strand at the forehead forward. Identify the top and bottom of the ladder. Separating the locks in stages, make an oblique cut from the top to the bottom. Next, it will be necessary to separate the strand after the strand, and cut to a predetermined length until you reach the ear line (on which the haircut of the rear strands is finished).

    Comb your hair thoroughly and walk over the tips again so that no protruding hairs remain. If the hair is very thick, it is recommended to additionally profile the ladder itself and the back. This will help the hairstyle to be lighter and maintain volume and a given styling line.

    Another option might be stepwise cutting of strands near the forehead. In this case, the transition from one length to another will be more noticeable. But when laying (curling with brashing or ironing will need to be inside), the curls will look very organic, gradually descending along the face.

    It is worth noting that no matter what haircut you choose, styling will play a huge role. If you do not pay proper attention to it, or even completely dry your hair in a natural way, without setting them in shape, then the best quality haircut will look untidy.
