A textured haircut can be a game-changer if you have a particular style in mind. Think of it as a bespoke haircut for styling if you wear it in a certain way. If you are unsure what a textured haircut is, you’re not alone. In-fact, most people don’t! 

Textured haircuts are a great way to embrace your personality, style and look. If you’re considering adopting a textured haircut for the first time, our blog will walk you through everything you need to know about textured haircuts. From what textured haircuts are, the various options, to the pros and the cons, we have you covered.

Textured Haircut FAQ's

What is a textured haircut?

A textured haircut is a bit of everything! If you Google ‘textured haircuts’, while most will embrace movement and volume, the strategy or cutting involves various techniques dependent upon your end goal. For example, blunt cuts, which have straight, even ends employ a technique call club cutting (think of the scissors at a 90 degree angle) whereas textured haircuts incorporate various cutting techniques such as layering, point cutting, or razor cutting to create a more lived-in and unique look. So what does this mean? Well, the approach to a textured haircut is ideal if you want to break away from a more standardised haircut to a much more natural, effortless style.

Generally speaking, textured haircuts can be applied to all hair lengths, from short pixie cuts to longer hair. That being said, they aren’t necessarily suited to all hair types therefore it’s worth checking with your stylist before making that leap!

What are your options for a textured haircut?

  • Textured Bob: Think of a classic bob with a little extra! The additional texture makes for an edgy bob with more bespoke styling options for you. Through the introduction of layers and choppy ends, this style creates a more relaxed, undone look that’s full of movement.
  • Long Textured Layers: If you love the length of your hair but want to add some volume and movement, long textured layers are the perfect solution. What you eventually have is nice layers that look natural yet provide movement and style.
  • Shag Haircut: The shag haircut is the ultimate textured style. However it’s VERY different from other textured haircuts and far more standout. You will either love it or hate it, but if executed correctly you’ll showcase your personality like no other. With its choppy layers, curtain bangs, and rock ‘n’ roll attitude. This is a standout option.
  • Textured Pixie: If you want something short and edgy that offers plenty of movement and personality, consider the pixie cut. It’s incredibly dynamic and can be styled to suit your mood or current vibe.

Pros of a Textured Haircut

  • Volume/Movement: The core reason (above wanting a change) is the increased volume and movement that your hair will benefit from. By incorporating layers and varying lengths, a textured cut can make even the finest hair look fuller and full of life!
  • Natural Texture: Whilst there are some scenarios where it may require some adaptation to make it work, if you have naturally wavy or curly hair, a textured haircut can help to enhance and define your natural texture. It can be effective at reducing some of the unruliness of hair too which is a big win.

Cons of getting a Textured Haircut

  • Control: If you have thick or coarse hair, it’s best avoided. These sorts of haircuts can make it challenging to control, particularly as some Stylists can get ‘lost’ in thicker hair making it challenging to cut (but even more challenging for the next person!). Without the right styling products, textured hair can sometimes appear unruly or frizzy, especially in humid weather.
  • Not ideal for all hair types: If you have very fine hair, adding too many layers can make your hair appear even thinner. Similarly, if your hair is very curly or coiled, a textured cut may not distribute the volume evenly, resulting in a less balanced haircut.

Conclusion - is a Textured Haircut right for you?

If you want to add volume, movement, and personality to your haircut and style, textured haircuts are a winner. Whether you’re looking to enhance your hairs’ natural texture, create edginess or your just want something with a bit of difference, a textured haircut is definitely standout.

Before making a firm decision on your next haircut, consider your hair type, face shape, and lifestyle. If you’re ready for a change, book a consultation with your hairdresser to discuss the best approach for your hair. For more information, call Wisteria Avenue or send us a WhatsApp. Mobile users can scroll up to hit ‘Send a WhatsApp’.
