6 Feathered hairstyles for all hair lengths and ages!
Long feathered hairstyle
Feathered hairstyles first cropped up on the style radar back in the ’70s. Since then, a number of high profile celebrities and fashion icons have embraced the look. And if you’ve got long, thick hair that lacks personality and shape, asking your stylist to adopt a feathering technique is a great way to add body and remove excess weight.
This look involves building in lots of layers throughout the front and back, then adding a slightly longer, centre-parted fringe to create a dramatic, voluminous finish. Think of it as the sleeker, more modern version of the Farrah Fawcett look.
Tip: Want to get that bouncy, fresh-out-of-the-salon effect? Try applying a few pumps of the Toni&Guy 3D Volumiser to towel-dried hair before blow-drying on medium heat, using a large round brush to ensure beautifully bouncy, long-lasting volume!
Short feathered hairstyle
Like we said, the feathering technique can be used on a variety of different hair lengths, even short hair! Ideal for giving a hairstyle extra movement and volume, feathering can also make shorter styles easier to manage and style without having to use too much product.
Undercut with a feathered fringe
It may sound a little out there, but hear us out. An undercut adds a fashion-forward edge, while feathered bangs can help soften a pixie cut, which is why this looks works a treat on those brave enough to try it out!
The messy feathered hairstyle
This season, it’s all about embracing the “just-rolled-out-of-bed” aesthetic. A popular variation of the feathered hairstyle, this look involves rigorous layering, teamed with a windswept fringe or piecey bangs in order to achieve an effortlessly messy, nonchalant vibe.
