Curly Layered Hairstyles 2013

Curly Layered Hairstyles 2013 When it comes to curly hair and layers, most stylists tell you to just say no. That's because when it comes to curly hair, a layered cut done incorrectly can lead to frizz and unwanted volume. But when you consult a stylist who specializes in curly hair, certain layered cuts can work with the texture of curly hair to create a flattering look and tame the frizz at the same time.

Long Layers When it comes to cutting layers for curly hair, long is the key word. Layers create volume in the hair, and curly hair already has lots of volume to spare. Shorter layers in curly hair take on a 'poofy' appearance. Very short layers that are cut too closely together may give the hair an appearance of sticking straight out from the head.

Graduated A graduated cut is one that has the longest layers cut close to the head with gradually shorter layers toward the crown of the head. This look can add lots of volume and body to the hair, so it is important not to add to many graduated layers. A graduated cut can appear formal, soft and elegant, and may be well suited for a formal occasion such as a wedding or prom.

Bob The bob was first popularized in the 1920s as a way for women to show independence. At the time, it was considered shocking for a woman to cut off nearly a foot of hair and sport a 'mannish' haircut. When women first wore bob haircuts, they either covered them with hats, or gently curled their hair to give it the appearance of natural curls. The classic curled bob is a retro look that can add an elegant feel to any appearance.

Stacking Stacking is a more extreme form of the graduated haircut. A stacked haircut has longer layers near the front of the hair, with increasingly short layers near the back of the head. The angle of the cut near the back of the hair may taper as much as 45 degrees. This type of haircut frames the face while creating volume near the crown of the head.

Curly Layered Hairstyles 2013 : Short Layers When cutting your hair short, it is important to remember that the shorter the hair, the tighter the curl. If you are going to attempt a short layered hairstyle, you should approach your stylist with the understanding that they will use scissors to maintain the look. Although razored hair is a very trendy way to cut hair, it tends to create frizz in naturally curly hair. A shorter look, when done correctly, creates a halo of hair around the head that can highlight a long neck and delicate features.
