The perfect guide for your long hairstyles
If you have long hair and you try to wear it one length, it becomes quite dull and boring, but you can actually change things around by just coloring them with the right color. In fact you can add dimension and depth to your hair with a double toned effect. Highlighting is certainly a good idea, but you can make it even more interesting by changing it up regularly. You should try to keep the stripes smaller and should ensure that they blend perfectly well with the base color. You can also think of adding some good colors to the mix. If you try doing this, it will certainly add a good transition and at the same time will give depth to your hair.
If the hair is long and wavy, a nice cut would be good option. The biggest problem with the long curly hair is that, any normal cut will not hold good for you, or else the hair will resemble Christmas tree where the cut is quite flat at the top and then explodes at the bottom. The best way will be to go ahead with layering as the layers will further help in transforming the curls, cascading the hair and making your hair to appear full and bouncy from start to end.
If the hair is too straight and at the same time quite thick, multi-layered look will just be perfect. This kind of long hairstyle helps in removing excess weight from the hair, thereby making your hair easier to handle and style. However, you should ensure that the hair are not cut too short also or else all the extra weight that has been removed from your hair, will give a bounce to your hair, giving you a perfect bowl shape at the crown.
