Layers are an effective way to not only reduce the thickness of the hairstyle but reduce the appearance of tangled hair and hair that falls straight from the head and appearance heavy. Heavy appearing hair is a look that should be avoided, as it is also confused with hair that appears unhealthy throughout the entire style. Layers are a simple and easy way to fix this, as the hair can be styled to have bounced and lightness that comes with a decreased weight of hair on the head.
When the long bob hairstyle has been layered, there are often techniques that are used within the layers to increase the volume even more, as well as increasing the style that can be seen once the layers of the long bob have been straightened with a flat iron. Once the hair has been straightened and a razor has been used within the hair to create volume, it can create interesting lines throughout the entire style – which are amplified once straightened.
