Layers are cut around the sides and back of this ombre style to lighten the length and to encourage a little movement through the mid-lengths to ends. this casual look is perfect to frame a round face and needs regular trims every 4-6 weeks to prevent split ends.

Stephanie Bauer looks edgy and cool here in a long layered ‘do. This hairstyle creates a head-turning frame for her face and brings out all of her best features. Stephanie has an oval face shape with a rounded hairline and strong jaw line, making her suited to longer styles that have a grown out fringe and lots of softness around the chin area. Stephanie’s layers and loose waves do just that plus they give her locks some movement and shape in the process. Stephanie’s natural thick and wavy hair texture is ideal for this hairstyle, which can be achieved with minimal styling.

Stephanie has naturally dark hair, a medium skin tone and dark blue eyes. This makes her best suited to hair colors that are brunette or blonde with a warm base. Here she is flaunting a striking ombre look that goes from dark espresso brown at the roots to a caramel blonde at the tips. This spectrum of colors suits her skin tone well and makes her eyes the center of attention.
