Easy hairstyles for long hair. Simple, evening, quick, casual, festive, braids, loose curls. Who suits, how they look

There are a lot of quick and easy hairstyles for long hair. Visiting salons is not necessary - you can learn how to create a spectacular image while staying at home.

Hairstyle and figure features

Before choosing a styling, you need to decide on the shape of the hairstyle, for which it is necessary to take into account the features of the figure. Form is the three-dimensional volume of the hairstyle, determined by changes in height, depth and breadth.

From a geometric point of view, the volume can be cubic, triangular, spherical, trapezoidal and diamond-shaped. When modeling a hairstyle, you need to remember that the ratio of the volume of the hairstyle to the figure plays a key role in helping to correct imperfections.

For instance:

• For chunky girls, a medium volume of hairstyles with large elements raised at the crown and parietal region is recommended. Large hairstyles, small curls and smoothed shapes are best avoided.
• Slender owners of high growth are suitable for hairstyles of various shapes, but of a large volume. Short sleek styling that makes the head small is not recommended.
• For girls with solid, feminine curves, it is better to wear long, straight hair, balancing the proportions. Otherwise, light curls on long hair will help to save the image.
• Petite girls can choose for themselves hairstyles of a small volume, lifting hair in the parietal region, as well as small waves or smooth hairstyles with small elements.
• Girls with a stooped figure will be helped by voluminous, long hair, hiding posture disorders.

Hair shape and face type

In addition to the advantages of the figure, a competent choice of hairstyle will help to emphasize the features of the face, while hiding the flaws. To do this, you need to know what type of person is.
