Do layers add volume to curly hair?

Will I have more movement in my hair if I get layers?

With medium thickness hair, the longer it is, the less likely it is to hold a shape. So the shorter you go, the more distinct your shape. Layers cut into the rounds of your head will create more volume at the top. Layers below the occipital below the shoulder will create a softer look and more movement on the ends.

Do layers make your hair poofy?

If your hair is very straight or you have little of it, then a layered cut is ideal for you, since you’ll end up with more volume and movement. But, if your hair is thick or very curly, you should avoid cutting your hair in layers because all you’ll end up doing is making your hair look bloated or poofy.

The layers don’t make hair look any thinner or any thicker. They just create a visual effect. If you have fine hair, a layered cut will give you volume and movement. It’ll create a different effect, but it’ll still be fine.

Should I get layers if I have frizzy hair?

What do you need to know about layering hair?

In addition to hair thickness, texture impacts how layers will look. Straight hair is versatile and layers can add lift and movement. Layering on shorter straight hair will require styling with either a flat iron, curling iron or blow dryer with a round brush. The beauty of having wavy hair is that it can pretty much be worn in any style.
