Visible length describes the outline in this illustration, not stretched or underlying hair length.

Ask your stylist

Ask for a neck-to-shoulder-length shag with connected layers, a soft fringe and a retained perimeter. Discuss how short the crown layers should be before removing weight.

Your routine

Natural movement contributes to the shape; the fringe and shorter layers may need refreshing as they grow.

Agree before starting

  • What length and outline should we aim for when my hair is dry?
  • How should we adapt this shape to my texture, density and growth patterns?
  • What should stay the same? Confirm any change to color, texture or overall length.
  • What daily styling, salon upkeep and cost should I expect?
