Through the technique of layering, virtually any hair style tends to receive a more modern vibe. Layered hairstyles appear more structured and can highlight the facial features of a person a lot better than hairstyles in which the overall length is the same. Because of the cutting technique, the overall length is not sacrificed and the hair becomes easier to maintain and to manage in many cases. Choppy layers are extremely modern through the uneven look they provide and they are extremely versatile in terms of styling.
When choppy layers are emphasized through various styling techniques the overall look tends to be more dramatic and edgy, making these hairstyles an ideal choice for those who want to set themselves apart from the norm and highlight their personality with funky hairstyles.
When choosing choppy layers for long hair you should always pay attention to the length of the layers. Keep in mind that choppy layers can enhance certain facial features while also providing a face framing effect, especially when the layers start near the chin area. If you pay attention to the length of the layers, you should have no problems adapting these layered hairstyles to your face shape as you will be able to use a great variety of techniques to create hair volume where needed.
If you decide to add bangs, the face framing effect will immediately be intensified. Although any bangs styles will have a face framing effect, you should try to make a choice based on the best structures for your face shape. While full bangs can be great for reducing the overall length of the face, it might be unsuitable for you if you have to create a hairstyle that balances out the width of the face with the rest of your facial features. Make sure that you take into consideration the length of the bangs as well. An asymmetrical bangs style can be a good choice if you want a geometrical hairstyle with a funky touch.
If you have naturally curly hair, you should be cautious about trying choppy hairstyles. Although soft curly layered hairstyles are highly recommended for those who have naturally curly hair to reduce excessive hair volume, choppy layers can reduce the overall length and create a structure that might be too contrasting for you. If you really like choppy layered hairstyles, you should learn to take moderate risks and consult your hair dresser for suggestions about what can be done to get the hairstyle you dream of.
The styling options depend greatly on the style of the haircut you’ve chosen. Among the most common techniques to emphasize long choppy layers we can mention: adding volume in strategic places to make the hair appear thicker, flipping out the hair ends with a flat iron to create a more interesting hairstyle that can be adapted according to everyone’s tastes and preferences or depending on the occasion.
There are a great variety of hair styling techniques that can be combined to create the desired overall effect. For these types of hairstyles the styling products you use are extremely important, so make sure that you use high quality products to get the best results. Keep in mind that the price of a product does not necessarily dictate its quality.
Because choppy layered hairstyles are typically high maintenance you should make sure that your tresses receive the best possible care. Make sure that you always protect your hair when using heat styling tools and consider upgrading some of your styling tools with ones that have technologies specifically designed to protect the hair as much as possible if you don’t want to cut back on the usage of these styling tools.
