I love that I have a talented daughter that keeps my up-to-date on all the latest hair trends! Tyra recently attended a hair cutting class and wanted to try the new “heavy layers” hair trend on me! I was excited to try and plus spring is just around the corner, so I was up for it! I added a few highlights to my hair as well! This new hairstyle got me plenty of compliments too and with all the layers, it left my hair bouncy and curly! I woke up today and it still looks the same too lol! See inside how to achieve this layer look, have a blessed week everyone!
Achieving the heavy layers hair trend involves several steps:
1. Consultation: Visit a professional hairstylist who can assess your hair type, texture, and face shape to determine the best style of heavy layers for you.
2. Communicate: Clearly communicate your desired outcome with your stylist. Bring reference images of the heavy layers style you like to ensure you’re both on the same page.
3. Layering Technique: Your stylist will use a layering technique to create depth and movement in your hair. This typically involves cutting different lengths of layers throughout your hair, with heavier layers framing the face and lighter layers towards the ends.
4. Consideration of Hair Type: The density and texture of your hair will influence how the layers are cut. For thick hair, more layers may be needed to reduce bulk and create movement. For fine hair, strategic layering can add volume and dimension.
5. Styling: Once the layers are cut, your stylist may use various styling techniques such as blow drying, curling, or straightening to enhance the layering effect and achieve the desired look.
6. Maintenance: Keep in mind that heavy layers may require regular maintenance to preserve the style and keep the layers looking fresh. Trimming every 6-8 weeks can help prevent split ends and maintain the shape of the layers.
7. Products: Use styling products like texturizing spray, volumizing mousse, or lightweight hair oils to enhance and define the layers while adding shine and texture.
Remember, communication with your stylist is key to achieving the heavy layers hair trend that suits your individual style and preferences.
