Highlighted Asymmetrical Haircut For Oblong Faces


Added: 18 Dec 2013
If you would like to add more width to your face, you should consider an asymmetrical haircut. It’s perfect for curving oblong faces! Highlights and lowlights are essential for this style, but be sure to pick a color that complements your skin tone, or else this could look too harsh. Our model is so gorgeous in this black hair color, red highlights, makeup and blushing skin that she could be nearly 20 years younger. This 'do will complement your oblong face beautifully. The back of this highlighted asymmetrical haircut is tapered into the head with layers cut up to the crown and the sides. One side is cut shorter than the other to achieve an asymmetric shape best suited to frame a long face. This highlighted 'do for oblong faces is created with a full face highlight and large quiff, highlighting the neckline of this style. The ends are cut slightly on the side, creating wavy hair at mid-length. An asymmetrical hair cut is an on-trend style nowadays. This modern twist on a traditional look is excellent for anyone who wants a bold new look. The asymmetrical undercut makes the hairline look longer, while the longer length gives an edgier look.

You can maintain this hairstyle by trimming it regular after 4 to 6 weeks, and toning treatments will be required to maintain your black color and red highlights. This haircut is an excellent style for many occasions. You can change your look into various other styles with this hairstyle. Product is needed for hold and shine.

step 1

Apply some wax to your fingertips and then pull through the ends of your hair in a downward motion to achieve a sculptured look. Pinch clumps of hair in different directions for a messier result.


step 2

Using a small amount of wax, work it through the mid-lengths and ends in a downward, pinching motion. For added texture, apply more pinching and more wax.


step 3

Apply wax to the palms of your hands, and then starting at the top-back area, drag your hands forward, flattening your hair down as you go. For a wetter look use more wax.


step 4

Apply wax to your fingertips then drag through your bangs, sweeping the hair to the right as you go. Pinching the ends will create soft texture.


step 5

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
