Step-by-Step Guide

Before we get started, it’s important to note that you’ll need a few tools for this haircut. You’ll need a pair of sharp scissors, a comb, and hair clips to section off your hair. Now, let’s begin:

Start by washing your hair and letting it air dry or blow drying it straight
Section off your hair into four parts: top, left side, right side, and back
Starting with the back section, take a small section of hair and comb it straight down
Hold the section of hair between your fingers and cut into it at a slight angle, starting from the ends and working your way up
Repeat this process for the left and right side sections
For the top section, comb your hair straight up and hold it between your fingers, then cut into it at a slight angle, starting from the ends and working your way up
Take small sections of hair from each section and blend them together by cutting into them at a slight angle
Once you’ve finished cutting, comb out your hair and check for any uneven spots. Touch up as needed
Style your hair as desired

I’ve been getting long layered haircuts for years and I find that they’re easy to maintain and style. I prefer to wear my hair straight, but the layers also look great when curled or styled with beachy waves. Plus, the layers help to add volume to my naturally thin hair.
