Various Shag Layered Haircuts: Short and Sassy

Shorter shags can give you a sassy, edgy look. Of all of the layered hair styles this style is perhaps, the one of the easiest to maintain, because your hair can be styled almost exclusively with your hands. Some of the drawbacks associated with wearing a short shag is that once your hair is cut into the style, you have to stay committed to the short cut until your hair grows out. You also do not have the versatility of putting your hair up into a ponytail or an updo without extensions. So, if you are feeling bold and funky one week, and would like to quickly opt for a long, flowing glamorous style, you will be out of luck unless you plan on adding a weave or extensions. Short shag styles will give your hair extra texture. These styles are popular messy hairstyles, or hairstyles that appear to have a carefree look. Short shag styles look great on teens and work well as a low maintenance style for teens who are on the go.

Medium Shags

Medium length styles can give you the versatility of wearing your hair up. Medium styles can also show off the body in your hair. Typically, however, medium shag styles have fewer layers than shorter styles. A medium shag style can work well in hair that is extremely thick, because the layers will help ease some of the fullness in the hair. Hair that has a slight wave can be cut in such a way that the hair falls gracefully within the wave.

Long Shag Styles

Long shag styles typically have the fewest layers, but people who have thick hair and seek to thin their hair out more, will opt to wear a long layered shag style. Long shag styles are also edgy, but may have a subtle edginess instead of looking particularly racy. The use of color, however, can highlight the layers in the hair. Style your hair infrequently for a true worn, carefree look. Use your fingers and shake the layers out, letting your hair fall freely. Do you have naturally curly hair? Longer shags work well with hair that is naturally curly or wavy. Shags are great because the style allows you to work within the natural texture of your hair instead of working against it, straightening it when it is curly.

The only downsides associated with getting a shag of any length is that you will have to wait for several months for your hair to grow into the same length. You also have to make sure that you visit the salon regularly to maintain your shag. With a shag, you hair may not never look exactly the same twice and you have fun experimenting with the various shag layered hair cuts. The style that your stylist places in your hair may be difficult for you to duplicate because your hair reacts differently according to the climate and the specific method that you use to style it. If, however, you are happy with the style, and choose not to let your hair “grow out” a shag may be just the perfect style for you.
