Layered Haircuts in Abingdon
Layered haircuts are arguably the most popular choice of haircut representing a timeless classic that can support clients that are looking to add movement, volume, and texture to their hair. Layers are versatile too; they come in a variety of forms and can be adapted to suit fine, thick, straight or even curly hair! It’s too worth mentioning that if you are unsure whether layers are right for you and how a layered haircut can suit your needs, lifestyle and a look that you’re going for, your Stylist will seek to work with you and break down the formula for a great great haircut whether you have layers or not during your next haircut.
In our daily blog, we’ll explore what layers are, how a layered haircut can benefit you, their advantages, and how they work with curly hair.

Layered Haircut FAQ's
What are layers?
Layers are a type of haircut where your Stylist will introduce different lengths to create dimension and movement. Another popular choice is one length haircuts, or blunt cuts as they are more commonly recognised which keeps all the hair at one uniform length whereas layers can vary from soft to choppy or even dramatic. For example a type of haircut that benefits from shorter choppy layers is the wolf cut which embraces an edgier look. Conversely, layers can be blended for a soft, natural appearance or even to frame the face, adding definition and enhancing facial features. Here are some options for long layers.
When would I need layers?
A layered haircut can be beneficial for many reasons and for different hair types and lifestyles. Uniqely layers are consistent in their ability to introduce volume and movement and this be an advantage for fine hair, straight hair or flat hair whereas it can also work well with curly hair or edgier haircuts. Additionally, if you’re looking for a low-maintenance style that grows out naturally, layers are more supportive than a blunt haircut.
What are the benefits of layers?
The main benefits are volume and movement which can also be tailored to suit your chosen style. Layers can also remove ‘bulk’ on thicker hair, however in most cases layers are recognised for their ability to create the illusion of thicker hair for clients with fine or thin hair. Another benefit is that layers can enhance styling options from straight to curly or wavy hair and if you work with your stylist, in most cases layers won’t close any doors to styling choices. Here’s how layers can benefit fine hair.
Can layers work with curly hair?
Almost 50% of our in-salon haircuts are on curly hair. Layers when delivered correctly can work beautifully with curly hair. In fact, layering curly hair can enhance its natural shape, prevent it from looking too heavy, and help define the curls. However, the key to layering curly hair is the method of cutting and how you deliver layers. Cutting curly hair like straight hair will leave it looking both frizzy and uneven so it’s important that the Stylist cutting your hair has comprehension of curly hair.
Conclusion
Layered haircuts are a fantastic option and carry very little downside. Whilst they aren’t for everyone, what layers do is introduce movement, volume, and versatility. So whether you have straight, wavy, or curly hair, layers can be tailored to suit your unique hair texture and styling needs.
