If you’re in the search for a new look, you might want to take a look at some long hairstyles, particularly layer style. This extremely versatile cut suits a wide variety of face shapes and can be as casual or dressy as you need to be. By simply keeping a few things in mind, you can find the long layered hairstyle that's perfect for you.
 

A layered look will let you keep the length of your hair while allowing you to achieve a softly feminine look around your face. Don’t be afraid to find the style that suits your face shape the best! Locks that are cut to chin-length give round faces some much-needed length. With longer faces, consider a series of short layers that will show off the angles of cheekbones and the shape of your chin.

 

Depending on your personal style, you can go for long, gently-falling layers or for a more abrupt, choppy cut, which will provide you with a more aggressively modern look. (See below for the best way to test different hairstyles with YOUR face shape).
 

Believe it or not, one advantage of long layered hairstyles is the fact that they require very little maintenance and preparation to look good. A quick trim every six weeks from a stylist who is familiar with your hair should do, and the rest of the time, you can pull your hair up or back or leave it loose.

For a sporty, playful look, pull back your hair but leave long tendrils to frame your face. If you're interested in a more mature, sensual look, try combing some leave-in conditioner into your long hairstyle and then use your hands to give it some gentle waves.
