Welcome to the hairstyle that's having a major revival: the layered shag that brings all the best parts of the '70s into the 21st century. This cut is like a celebration of texture, movement, and that perfectly undone vibe that many are trying to achieve.
 
The magic of this shag lies in its layers. They start shorter around your crown and gradually get longer as they work their way down, creating this beautiful cascade effect that adds volume and body to your hair.
 
Your stylist will work with a razor or texturizing shears to create these soft, feathered edges that move like they have a mind of their own. The warm brown color with its subtle highlights adds depth and dimension that makes every layer pop.
 
This semi-long cut is incredibly flattering because it works with your hair's natural growth patterns rather than against them. Styling is wonderfully flexible. You can scrunch in some texturizing cream for maximum wave and texture, or blow it out with a round brush for a sleeker but still voluminous look.
 
The shag is perfect for adding body to fine hair or taming thick hair by removing weight in all the right places. It's the ultimate "I woke up like this" hairstyle, except it actually looks like you put thought into it. This hairstyle never goes out of style.
