It's all about the layers.

The face frame haircut is returning as layered styles of the early 2000s return. Face-framing layers offer a built-in flattering contour effect and highlight your face shape for a super intentional style. No matter if you choose a cropped layered frame haircut or a longer version of the style, you can quickly get in on this highly flattering face frame style.

5 Ways to Wear A Frame Hair Cut

Check out five ways to wear a frame haircut:

Perfectly frame your face with a cropped frame haircut. This shoulder-brushing length is super chic and universally flattering. The shorter layers cascade in intervals from the cheekbone to the length of the lob, drawing the eye up for a super lifted look.

2. A Curly Frame Hair Cut

Add some instant volume to your curls by opting for frame layers. This style includes a full set of fringe and face-framing layers that extend from there. Use SheaMoisture Manuka Honey Hydrate + Repair Whipped Curl Cream to hydrate your curls and give them extra bounce and shine.

3. The Classic Frame Hair Cut

This is the classic face-framing style.

This haircut is the ultimate face frame haircut, with cascading layers that extend from the ear down to the ends of the hair. Show off your fresh haircut by giving yourself a voluminous blowout. Use Nexxus Weightless Style Smooth & Full Blow Dry Balm to add some lift and shine to your strands.

4. Elongated Layers

Longer layers elongate the face.

Consider this longer layered look if you aren’t ready to jump onto the dramatic layered trend. This layered style still frames the face but creates a more subtle effect. Use a hair straightener or blow dryer to style the layers inward to create this early 2000-inspired effect.

5. Soft and Subtle Layers

Subtle layers still make a statement.

Even more subtle but equally as trendy, these soft layers are a bit more approachable. You can choose to style this haircut more dramatically with flipped-in ends so the layers are more noticeable, or you can wear it in a more beach-like texture for a softer effect.
