Face-Framing Layers

About the Face-Framing Layers

Cut & Silhouette: Description: Mid-length layered cut with significant face-framing layers and a full, feathered fringe, creating a voluminous, rounded front silhouette that tapers to a straighter, longer back. Key Details: Prominent, soft, face-framing layers start at the cheekbone level and extend to the jaw and collarbone, styled with outward bends. The overall length is one-length at the perimeter below the shoulders. Ear coverage: over-ear. Sideburns: blended into face-framing layers. Nape/neckline: Not visible (assumed to continue below shoulders). Length: Overall: Approximately 14–16 in (36–41 cm) from crown to ends, reaching mid-chest. Front: Shortest face-framing layers are ~5–6 in (12.5–15 cm) from crown, falling around cheekbones. Sides: Layers graduate from cheekbone length to blend into the overall length, with the longest side pieces reaching the collarbone. Back/Nape: Not visible (length assumed consistent with the longest parts of the side/back). Fringe: Full, feathered fringe ~3.5–4 in (9–10 cm), resting just above the eyebrows at the center, blending longer towards the temples and sides. Front/Bangs & Parting: Description: Full, slightly feathered fringe styled forward, with longer pieces blending into face-framing layers that curve outwards. Parting: No distinct hard part; fringe has a slight natural split in the center; the rest of the hair appears to be styled from a soft, unpronounced central part. Texture & Finish: Natural Texture: Appears straight (Type 1A) to slightly wavy (Type 2A). Styled Finish: Smooth, bouncy, and voluminous with polished ends and a soft outward curve on the face-framing layers. Styling tool: likely a blowout with a round brush or curling iron for the layers. Hold level 3/5 (medium hold spray or cream for shape retention). Volume & Density: Description: High volume at the crown and through the face-framing layers, which extend outward, contrasting with slightly less volume in the lower back lengths. Thickness: Thick; dense coverage throughout. Color: Base Color: Vivid copper red, warm tone. Multi-tonal Effects: Uniform color; no visible highlights, balayage, or shadow root.
