Even in ancient times, many women and men chose a bob haircut. This option is very practical, neat and attractive, which made it so popular. Today, the demand for hairstyles is only growing. It is being improved and modified. One of the most famous varieties of haircuts has become an elongated caret.

Benefits of a caret on lengthening

This model of a female haircut is created by an oblique cut of hair. As a result, the strands located on the back of the head turn out to be shorter than near the face. Thanks to such a consistent lengthening of curls, the haircut got its name. The longest part of the hairstyle can be at the level of the chin or lower - it all depends on personal preferences.

This option is ideal for girls with long hair who dream of a stylish short haircut, but can not decide on such a radical change.

In addition, elongated caret has several important advantages:

  • No styling problems. Hair quickly adapts to a new form and almost does not require additional manipulations.
  • Universality. This haircut is a rare type of hairstyle suitable for any face shape. Another reason to dwell on her, choosing an image for the first "acquaintance" with short hair.
  • Independence from hair structure. A caret with an extension will not cause trouble for the owners of thin strands, or for girls with thick hair. In the first case, the volume can be obtained by raising the hair at the crown. In the second - obstinate locks will fit into a neat hairstyle without any problems.
  • Diversity.With such a haircut, you can curl your hair, creating luxurious light curls, or, conversely, straighten it, leaving the classic version of a stylish styling.
  • Simplicity and sophistication. An elongated square always looks elegant and concise. Therefore, it will be appropriate both at home and at a gala event.

 

Before choosing a specific hairstyle option, it is worth exploring all existing models.

Classic haircut

Any method of hair styling is based on a standard technique, which is considered a classic for this technique.

For medium hair

The classic shape of the square represents a smooth transition of slightly shortened back strands to longer side ones. In this case, the cutting angle is minimal. Front hair usually reaches the shoulders or chin. The back covers the neck.

 

The technique itself represents the shearing of extra strands strictly along horizontal partings. First, the lower part of the nape is processed, and then the upper, strictly along the designated straight lines.

Despite the versatility of hairstyles, it is better for owners of a narrow elongated type of face not to experiment with this form.

On long hair

This type of haircut is most often chosen by ladies with long strands when moving to a more concise and elegant look. The hairstyle model is constantly updated and updated with new elements. But the traditional version remains the most popular due to its practicality and versatility. The highlight of the haircut is its simplicity. Absolutely flat ends of the strands and the absence of bumps on long hair are combined with clear cut lines. You can choose the option with and without bangs, adjusting individual facial features.

 

If you want to add volume to your hairstyle, you can stop at the graduated elongated square. Due to the layering and stepping, the haircut looks more magnificent. This model is perfect for thin hair.

Stylish asymmetry

 

The name of this hairstyle option speaks for itself. Curls with this technique have different lengths and chaotic styling. Such a square is perfectly complemented by a straight straight or, conversely, asymmetric bangs. Creative extraordinary personalities who dream to effectively stand out from other people will appreciate this unusual form of haircut.

Kare on a leg

 

The technique of this hairstyle model is simple: each strand is made a centimeter shorter than the previous one. With the help of such a graduation, a larger volume is achieved at the back of the head, which gives the overall image lightness and romance. The rear view of this form is flat or with a slight transition up. The traditional version is performed without bangs. With elongated strands in front, this haircut model looks even more spectacular. Its main advantage is easy care and quick styling.

Model with and without bangs

 

An elongated square with no bangs is a classic option. It suits both very young girls and adult ladies. The only caveat is the lack of an additional element covering the part of the forehead, suggests a more careful selection of a certain form of hairstyle to a specific type of face:

  • The oval design is combined with any haircut model. In this case, the curls will frame and effectively emphasize the soft and ideal proportions of the facial lines.
  • The broad face can be corrected with a straight square, which visually stretches the cheekbones.
  • Puffy ladies fit light playful curls in the form of neat waves.
  • With a square face shape, it is better to give preference to a square with elongated strands.
  • The triangular shape is smoothed out thanks to an asymmetrical haircut, which helps hide a wide forehead and soften a thin narrow chin.
  • Girls with thin graceful lines of the face and a beautiful long neck can safely choose the extravagant bean square on the leg.

Attention: a square with no bangs is best avoided by women with small curls, as well as owners of a square face in combination with sparse thin hair.

 

A haircut with a bang is a great way to hide certain imperfections in appearance, focusing on the merits. There are several traditional forms of bangs:

  • oblique;
  • smooth;
  • profiled.

Correct the appearance using a well-chosen option will help a professional master. So, by making an oblique shape, you can visually reduce the nose. A visually enlarging narrow forehead will help a thick, even bang, modeled from the line where it should begin.

 

Thus, an elongated bob with bangs serves as a kind of tool for correcting imperfect facial lines, which makes this haircut even more attractive and relevant.

Extra long bob

 

A similar model in the classic version is characterized by smooth lines and smooth transitions. Thanks to this technique, you can make the face more expressive, emphasizing its oval.

The haircut technique itself is rather complicated. For its perfect execution, the master will require experience and professionalism. The main detail is the combination of short hair in the back of the head and long on the sides. Such an unusual model exposes the neck and makes the shape of the head noticeable.

 

You can create an extended bob bean in the following way:

  1. Washed hair should be combed and separated with a vertical parting.
  2. Use hairpins to remove the strands from above.
  3. The first is the occipital part. Here the lowest hair is cut.
  4. Next are the upper strands, the length of which is 2 or 3 cm longer than the previous ones. The result should be a "ladder".
  5. When the nape is ready, the process moves to the front. The master forms a horizontal parting and, according to the already described scheme, gives shape to the rest of the hair.
  6. The final stage is the design of the bangs. A single strand is created from it, which is given the necessary shape and length.
  7. By tradition, the finished strands are dried and brought into proper shape using a hairdryer.

Fashion haircut styling options

 

To make a neat, stylish styling, you will need a hairdryer, a round comb, a straightener and a fixing agent. Additionally, a special mousse or spray should be used as protection. Consider the styling methods:

  • Using a round brush, the curls can be turned out and secured with a latch.
  • The classic option is to straighten dry strands with an iron, tighten the ends inward and fix the result with a special tool.
  • You can add lightness and immediacy to the image by beating curls with your hands with preliminary application of mousse or foam. The final touch is brought in with a hairdryer. This styling option will be especially useful if the haircut is done using the calibration technique.
  • Voluminous luxurious waves will add glamor to the look. To design them, foam is applied to the curls, after which they are wound on curlers or curled with special forceps.
  • As a simpler and faster option, a regular fleece is suitable. Wet locks are covered with foam, and then whipped and dried using a round brush. Thus, the hairstyle becomes incredibly voluminous. To preserve it, you should cover your hair with varnish.
  • A caret made using the graduation technique can be easily diversified with elements such as “needles” and “feathers”. This is done by forming neat tips towards the face or in the opposite direction. Previously, the curls are processed with wax or gel.
  • To create a romantic and slightly frivolous look, you can decorate your hair with a ribbon, scarf, unusual hair clips or a bright rim. Skillfully manipulating these accessories, it is possible to simulate the hairstyle in a completely new way, for example, by distributing curls on the sides or pins them on one side.

All methods are quite simple, and most importantly, available for implementation at home.

Due to the variety of images that can be created using this elegant haircut, the elongated square does not lose its relevance, remaining in the list of fashion trends. Therefore, if you want to experiment on your appearance, feel free to choose one of the proposed options and go to a reliable master.
