Frequently Asked Questions About Our Shag Haircut Services
-
A shag haircut is versatile and can work with many different hair types and face shapes. It's especially great for those with natural texture, as the hair is cut to build volume. Or if you have fine or thin hair, the enhanced volume also adds movement. A shag can suit oval, square, heart, and round face shapes, but the key is to tailor the layers to your face shape and hair type.
-
Yes, a shag haircut can work on long hair. For long hair, the layers can be cut to create movement without sacrificing length. The layers are carefully blended to maintain balance and keep the hair from feeling too heavy. This style can give long hair more volume and texture while still allowing you to maintain your length.
-
Absolutely! A shag haircut works beautifully on curly hair.
The layers in a shag cut can help enhance the natural volume and texture of your curls. The key is to ensure the layers are cut in a way that doesn’t create too much bulk or frizz. Our skilled stylists will cut the layers to follow your natural curl pattern, allowing the curls to fall into place without looking too heavy or boxy. Curly shags often have a more voluminous, bouncy feel. Coupled with the right products and a diffused blow-dry, you can make the most of your natural curls while enjoying the effortless, chic look of a shag.
-
The shag haircut requires minimal styling. You can let your hair air-dry for a natural look, or use a flat iron or curling iron to enhance specific layers or create waves. If you have finer hair and want to add more texture, start by towel-drying your hair after washing, then apply a texturizing spray, sea salt spray, or a light mousse to damp hair. For extra volume, you can use a blow-dryer with a diffuser to scrunch and dry your hair.
-
The shag haircut is generally low-maintenance, especially if you embrace your natural texture. It doesn't require much daily styling, and styling can last a few days. The haircut looks best when it’s a little messy, so it's a great option for those who prefer a relaxed, easy-to-manage style.
-
A shag haircut requires regular trims to maintain its shape and texture. You may need to trim the layers every six to eight weeks, depending on how quickly your hair grows.
