Tips for choosing haircuts for brunettes
Trying to find their ideal image, many girls and women experiment not only with hair color, but also with a haircut. She plays a big role in creating the image. A successful hairstyle will accentuate your natural beauty and add sophistication to your look. It is worth considering your color type when choosing this or that option. Today we present to your attention the most popular haircuts for brunettes.
What kinds of haircuts are there?
Coming to the hairdresser, sometimes we ourselves do not know what kind of haircut and length we want. The masters cannot guess the addictions, they are not psychics. So that the final version does not disappoint you, think in advance and choose the model that meets your ideas about the ideal hairstyle... When choosing a haircut, it is worth considering whether the hair is thin in nature, as well as its density. This can impose certain restrictions on the choice.
A skilled craftsman, of course, will be able to advise you on the best option, but it is better if you print or save on your phone the haircut option that you would like to see on your own head.
For short
The main options that are very popular with the weaker sex are pixie and bob haircuts, since femininity and charm are not lost with a sufficiently short length. That is why such options are preferred by both Hollywood stars and girls who are far from show business. It is worth considering these two options in more detail.
- Pixie. Many brunettes are afraid to make such an original version, as they consider it boyish.Despite the popularity of such variations among the stronger sex, it is ideal for many women. The bulk of the hair remains on the crown, creating volume. At the temples and the back of the head, the hair will be cut rather short. Often they even use a typewriter for this. If you have straight and thin hair, then this option is worth trying. With this arrangement, the hairstyle will lie in a given direction, and thin hair will have additional volume due to styling.
But this does not mean at all that young ladies with curly locks should not try on a pixie haircut. Natural curls will only decorate the image and give it romance. Of course, you shouldn't wait for clear lines, but slight negligence looks very touching.
- Bean. Initially, it was assumed that this haircut will exist in a short version, but the fashion is making its own adjustments. Today, variations of this hairstyle are very popular, such as an elongated, asymmetrical or an extension bob. Before choosing the final version, consult with a hairdresser or stylist, which shape is more suitable for your face shape and figure.
Important! Many people are afraid of short haircuts because of the need to style them. But practice shows that long and medium hairstyles require no less serious care. Here it will be much easier to achieve the desired volume and direction of the strands, since there will be no unnecessary weighting due to the length.
Medium length
Medium hair length provides more options for choosing a haircut model. Considering that the trend of recent times is the pursuit of naturalness, then you can come up with many options for styling any haircut for medium hair.
- Elongated bob. The most popular haircut is the elongated bob. It no longer looks as bold as the classic version, but it allows you to show your individuality. Medium length hair is suitable for brunettes of different ages. In addition, young beauties will be able to make fashionable French braids, and older ladies - exquisite styling based on curls.
- Asymmetry. Traditionally, shoulder length hair is considered to be of medium length, but haircuts can be quite original. For example, the master can leave one edge quite long, while the other will have a minimum length.
- Cascade. Its main feature is the presence of several layers. Due to this, additional volume and the effect of complete transformation are created. The advantage of this type of haircut is its versatility. The curls can simply be dried with a hairdryer and leave only a light volume. Or you can twist the ends with a curling iron or a round comb with a hairdryer.
- Torn haircuts. At the first glance at such masterpieces of hairdressing, it seems that the master just made a sloppy haircut. But this is its zest. When done correctly, the haircut looks very organic and original.
For long
Owners of long, beautiful hair are reluctant to part with their hair. But simple long hair also needs to be trimmed periodically. In this case, you can simply make an even cut by removing the overgrown and uneven (sometimes split) ends. And you can find a more original version.
- Ladder. On dark hair, it looks especially bright, since every strand is clearly visible. Moreover, such a haircut can be worn both straight and curled on a curling iron or curlers.
- Cascade. It can be created not only at medium length, but also on long curls. At the same time, the difference in levels can be quite perceptible or barely noticeable. A cascade with large curls, which can be created with an iron, looks very cute.
- Multilevel. Here the number of options is almost unlimited. The longest strands can be up to the waist, while the shortest strands are barely longer than the ear.
These hairstyles require daily styling, otherwise they will look sloppy.
- Asymmetry. If earlier such options were possible only on catwalks and fashionable glossy magazines, today they can also be found on the streets of our cities.
Selection Tips
Besides personal preference, there are other important factors to consider when choosing a haircut. After all, even if you really liked the haircut on the model, this does not guarantee that it will suit you. It is important to take into account the shape of the face, how close the eyes are and even the figure. So take a look at the options below. They will help you determine how possible it is to make a particular haircut with your data.
Face shape
With the help of a haircut, you can visually lengthen the face, hide the fullness of the cheeks, or otherwise correct the imperfect shape. But the opposite effect is also possible if the haircut was chosen incorrectly.
Important! If you find it difficult to independently determine the shape of your face, then go to the mirror, tuck your hair into a ponytail or put on a headband. On the mirror, trace the contours of the face (use an erasable marker or lipstick).
Consider the main types of facial contours.
- Oval. This face shape is close to the standards of the ideal, therefore, there is no need to correct and correct it. Almost any hairstyle is suitable here, their choice is very wide, so be guided by your own preferences.
The characteristic features of this form are wide cheekbones, a narrowed chin and forehead (closer to hair growth).
- Triangle. This shape is characterized by a rather wide forehead and cheekbones, while the chin is pointed. To balance the wider top, you can add soft curls in the chin area. This will soften the facial features. Short haircuts will also look good. By exposing the area below the edge of the nose, we draw attention to it. This is a great technique for visually correcting facial proportions.
- Square. This is not to say that the owners of a square face are very lucky, but with the help of a haircut, this feature can also be corrected. To visually stretch the face, we make volume on the crown. A wide chin will balance a ladder haircut. You can also try curls that will frame your face. At the same time, do not forget that it is better to make them multilevel.
But what stylists do not advise with this face shape is bangs. By trying to hide a wide forehead, you will draw more attention to the chunky chin.
- Rhombus. It is a more elongated shape than a circle, but the cheekbones are quite wide. To visually correct this shape, place the bulk in the cheekbones. The bangs work great here. She will hide the narrowed forehead, balancing it with the cheekbones.
If you choose the option with bangs, then the pointed cheekbones can be deliberately emphasized with makeup, which will make them visually taller and more attractive.
- Rectangle. This is the shape of the face, which since ancient times has been associated with a noble birth and aristocracy. Brunettes with such data deliberately emphasize the unusualness of their face shape, and do not try to hide or correct it. To make the image look organic, you need to focus on one detail. Almost all options for haircuts that open the face are acceptable here. It can be an elongated bob or a ladder haircut. The volume in the area of the ears will add seductiveness and restraint to the image. The length can be chosen to the chin or slightly below. Individual curls framing the face or just the cheekbones and cheeks will also look beautiful.
Important! Today there are computer programs that allow you to see the final result of a haircut even before it is carried out. Of course, the computer will substitute stereotyped hairstyles, not taking into account the structure, density and fluffiness of your hair, but it can still give a rough idea of how you will look with a particular haircut.
Shape type
Nature has endowed everyone with individual characteristics. Our figure is no exception.There are several basic types of shapes. Do not think that the figure has nothing to do with the choice of haircut. For example, with short stature, it is contraindicated to have too long hair, as this makes you visually even lower. Below we will analyze the main types of figures and those haircuts that are ideal for them.
- Tall thin girls. Short or chin-length haircuts will look great on them.
- Hourglass. This ideal shape allows you to try on absolutely any look. You can make short haircuts for women, and grow long curls.
- Miniature beauties. The main task is to visually stretch the figure. Complex multi-layer haircuts to the shoulder blades can easily cope with it. Do not grow too long, as the effect in this case will be the opposite.
- Lush ladies. Tall ladies with curvaceous curls go very well. The length can be quite impressive. For owners of small stature, it is better to opt for medium length and all the same curls.
Style
We must not forget about personal style preferences. The most primitive haircut can be transformed with creative coloring. The overall tone of the hair will remain dark. Some of the haircuts are recommended only for girls with a bold and extraordinary style of clothing, while others are suitable only for a real lady with a classic wardrobe. But sometimes unexpected experiments with style, including hairdo, lead to truly stunning results. This is evidenced by the many photos on the network with images "before" and "after", as well as thematic programs on television.
Important! If you are planning a radical transformation, then find a good specialist in this area, which will allow you not to worry about the result and get a high-quality haircut.
