The Feathered hair was a hit in the 70’s and 80’s. The hair was the length of the ear and some went as far as the shoulder. It was popular with both men and women. It could be layered on both sides and had a part in the middle.

The Hime cut is where the hair is grown down below the shoulder with the bangs cut above the eyes. This popular cut is a very high maintenance hairstyle.

Caring for your long, straight hair is a must if you wish to avoid tangles. Work out tangles with your fingers, be gentle. Do not yank the brush  as this creates breaks and frizzles. Use a name-brand shampoo and massage it into your scalp. You should then wash your hair in cool water. Use good conditioner for your hair as this will protect it from breakage. Pat your hair and let it air dry. Comb and brush through it while it is drying, your hair will keep its shape as it dries.

These can also work for wavy, long hairstyles. Long, wavy hair looks beautiful loose and flowing down your shoulders. You may wish to use highlights on it.
