Straight Hairstyles
Straight hair is without any curls or waves and can be different textures (coarse, medium or fine). It can be cut, razored, sliced, chipped, or tapered to achieve almost any shape. Examples include a short hair cut with plenty of choppy layers (medium to coarse texture) or a shoulder length style with face framing layers (fine to medium texture).
Method
You need a professional to regularly trim your straight hairstyle and keep it healthy. If you have wavy or curly hair it can be made to look straight by either styling it straight with hair products and a straightening iron, or by having a chemical straightening process.
Benefits
With straight hair you can have the best of both worlds: wear it straight or set it in hot rollers (or use a curling iron) to create waves and curls that will last until your next shampoo.
Beware
A good cut is very important with short straight hair or uneven areas will be very noticeable.
Tip
Choose low maintenance, simple styling techniques for fuss-free straight hairstyles; for example, one length looks, or nice short layer cuts .
