A good hairstyle can improve your mood, but a bad hairstyle can ruin it. In order to minimize the latter, it is a good idea to go to the hairdresser from time to time to re-arrange your hair, taking into account your hair type, face shape and lifestyle. Of course, it is important that you also express your wishes, say what you like and how you live, so that the hairstyle will be customized. There are quite a few hairstyles that suit most people and some that are almost never flattering.
Some top stylists believe that the hairstyles that we will present to you below no one should have.
Lob that is too long
A hairstyle that is always somewhere in between - it's not a pageboy and it's not long hair. The hair just hangs there, without any special styling. Stylist Jenna Mast says, “Another bad hairstyle is a shoulder-length wannabe lob or super long hair. Usually, shoulder-length hair gets boring for girls, so they want gradual haircuts that define the face. The problem is always the density of the hair. If you don't have thick hair, you're going to end up with something that is by no means a full, sexy hairstyle. At most it will look old.”
V-shaped long hair
If you want long hair, then avoid excessive layering. If you have several shorter layers in the front, you will create a V-shape, which does not suit anyone. "The V-shape is my least favorite request," admits Mastova. "You are left with a kind of tail, which is difficult to shape properly and is not sexy. Cut it!”
(Too) long hair
Long hair needs some layering to keep it looking fresh. Having really long hair just makes you look older. This is especially true if your face is also oblong. "Long straight hair with straight bangs is a terrible choice for anyone with an oblong face shape," says hairstylist Marco Pelusi. "Why? Because it further lengthens the face."
Bangs on a wide face
If you have a wider face, then bangs are not the best choice. "Frufru will only make your face look bigger," says Alan Benfield Bush, owner of Your Haircare System. Instead, opt for soft layers that won't optically widen your face.
Lush perennial
You'd think perms were a thing of the past, along with shrugs and leggings. But they are still quite present. They have improved over the years, but if you really have to go permanent, keep the curls soft and modern. That lush perm from the 1980s will not suit anyone. It is also important to take good care of your hair. Quality permanent hair will not cause damage.
'Bundesliga inverted' hairstyle
This hairstyle is characterized by the fact that the hair is cut short at the back and longer at the front. Although the hairstyle is not demanding, it will never flatter anyone. "Short hairstyles are great to maintain, as long as you find the right one for your face shape," stylist Guy Riggio told Total Beauty. "The problem with the inverted bundesliga hairstyle is that the bangs are too long and the hair in the back needs at least one bottle of hairspray."
Cutting hair at home
Avoid this even if you have undemanding straight hair. It is almost impossible to get a good haircut yourself. If you haven't found a hairdresser you like, keep looking because it's worth it.
