Although it could be an unusual style for the majority of people hairstyles, this particular asymmetrical haircut is able to be adjusted in many different ways. It’s not often that I steer a client from trying it. In the event that your face appears more round this is a great option because it lengthens the face shape. In the event that your face appears more long and based on your hairline I could reduce the angle and raise the length up to or below the chin to the front. I could suggest a long side fringe that helps to broaden the cheekbones. The hair’s texture, density, the ability to keep it in place, and the ability to cut will determine the need of an undercut as well as the intensity of the graduation, as well as where I will place the layers.
In general, I suggest a 6 week pre-book in order to keep it in good shape and fresh. It is however, appealing to those who are low maintenance also, since this will grow beautifully. Due to the initial angles and shape of the perimeter as it grows out, it gets less concave and may appear more round This is also pleasing. Therefore, depending on the initial direction of cut it could take months before it loses any shape and becomes convex, and appears like it’s hanging down or sliding in the back.

What would you say about this style?
It’s a very cool texture. It’s a little symmetrical, which is fun, but also offers the user the possibility of straightening it to keep it clean and elegant.
Anyone have any advice for those who are considering this?
It’s not obvious in the image, but she has a huge undercut in her back. Therefore, we need to make sure that we keep that cut shaved to ensure that it doesn’t grow shaggy. The overall appearance (color as well as cut) is extremely high maintenance. Additionally, it’s a long process to achieve at all. Any person who wants to try this look must be prepared to invest the money and effort to maintain it both in the salon as well as at home.

Q&A with the style creator Kim Taglienti
Hairstylist @ Art + Science Salon & Spa in Philadelphia, PA
What do you think of this style?
This style is a smooth, shaggy asymmetrical hairstyle with a chocolate color base which melts into the color of milk chocolate/caramel. The most interesting thing about it is that it has texture and depth. I love things with symmetry in their appearance, and having dimensional hair colors help highlight the best features of the hair. I am a huge fan of using the curling iron or wand to add texture and waves to hair.
Do you have any suggestions for someone who is thinking about this?
Absolutely do it! This particular client has lots and plenty of hair, however, I’ve also done it on those with shorter hair. Hair of all types can make this asymmetrical style! The shape of the face can dictate the length as well as the layers, based on how long or short we take.
For this client, I used Aveda’s glossening straightener for wet hair. Then I used the damage remedy for daily repair of dry hair before curling. I finished her off with Aveda’s Control Force hair spray. This cut is great for any way of life because, depending on how long you’ll have left, you’ll still be able to put it back into ponytail.
