Feathered haircuts are a popular choice for women looking for a versatile and stylish option, especially for long hair. To gain deeper insights into achieving this look, I spoke with Megan Elizabeth, a well-known hairstylist who specializes in long haircuts. Her advice covers important considerations based on hair texture, thickness, face shape, and lifestyle to help you make an informed decision.

Hair Texture and Thickness

When opting for a feathered haircut on long hair, it’s crucial to account for your hair’s texture and thickness. Megan advises against feathering curly hair, particularly if it’s coarse or dry. Feathered layers can appear quite short on curly or coily hair, so it’s essential to think about how much maintenance your hair will require. Megan stresses the importance of having a detailed consultation with your hairstylist to ensure the best results.

Face Shapes and Feathered Haircuts

Feathered haircuts can flatter any face shape as long as the shortest layer is positioned correctly. Whether your face is round, square, long, oval, heart-shaped, or otherwise, this haircut can enhance your features and give you a confidence boost. Megan highlights, “This haircut is versatile and works on all face shapes if the shortest layer is properly placed. It’s an excellent way to bring out your best features and boost self-assurance.”

Styling Tips and Product Recommendations

For styling, Megan suggests curling the top front pieces of your hair back at a 45-degree angle using either a large curling iron or a round brush. This technique adds volume and gives your hair a polished, professional look. Many people prefer using one-step styling tools to easily add volume and achieve the desired look.

As for product recommendations, Megan is a fan of Maria Nila’s Power Powder, which adds volume and texture to feathered cuts. This product helps maintain your hairstyle throughout the day, regardless of your lifestyle, whether you’re a professional, a busy parent, active, or retired.
