About the Soft Layered Waves
Cut & Silhouette: Description: Voluminous, heavily layered, mid-length cut with face-framing layers and a rounded, shaggy silhouette. Key Details: Heavily layered throughout, with shorter face-framing layers and crown layers creating volume, gradually lengthening towards the ends. Crucial relative detail: the shorter face-framing layers provide significant volume around the face and crown compared to the longer length at the ends. Ear coverage: over-ear. Sideburns: blended into face-framing layers, reaching to tragus level. Nape/neckline: Not visible. Length: Overall: Approximately 12.5 in (32 cm) from crown to longest ends, resting just below the shoulders. Front: Face-framing layers begin around the cheekbones and jawline, blending into the overall length. Sides: Layers fall over the ears, with the shortest layers around the temples approximately 6.5 in (16.5 cm) from the crown, blending to shoulder-length. Back/Nape: Not visible for shape; visible length reaches approximately 12.5 in (32 cm), just below the shoulders. Fringe: Curtain-style bangs, approximately 4.5 in (11.5 cm) from crown at their shortest point, resting at eyebrow level and sweeping back to blend with face-framing layers. Front/Bangs & Parting: Description: Voluminous curtain bangs, styled to sweep away from the face, blending into the longer layers. Parting: Soft, natural center part at the crown, with bangs splitting centrally. Texture & Finish: Natural Texture: Wavy (Type 2B), with some natural movement. Styled Finish: Tousled and voluminous with soft, flicked-out ends; natural-to-satin sheen. Styling tool: likely a round brush and blow-dry, possibly with a curling iron to enhance the flicked ends. Hold level 2/5 (light hold spray). Volume & Density: Description: High volume at the crown and through the mid-lengths and sides, creating a full, rounded appearance. Thickness: Medium to thick; dense coverage. Color: Base Color: Dark brown, neutral-cool tone. Multi-tonal Effects: Uniform color; no highlights or artificial multi-tonal effects visible.
