Unlike so many other styles and relax massage & body care coloring techniques, layers can look totally different on everyone, depending upon how they have been cut and hair type. "Without getting too technical, layered hair involves cutting shorter lengths throughout a cut. Usually, the hair is cut into shorter lengths on top and around the crown, and then varying lengths through the rest of the hair to add texture,” says&;Headmasters&;Creative and Communications Director Andrew Barton. Because frizzy hair is so fragile, it can be easily damaged by the harsh chemicals in hair dye. “Permanent hair dyes are extremely drying and can destroy curly strands when not used properly,” says John Frieda Hair Care R&D Expert, Sean Steigerwald. “If your hair is thick and curly, it’s best to get it colored by a professional at a salon."
