#1: Side Curtain Bangs and Long Shaggy Layers
If you are thinking of trying a shag style, but want to maintain your length, then consider side curtain bangs and long shaggy layers. If you have curly or wavy hair, use a curl-defining cream or sea salt spray to amplify the natural texture when styling. Be sure to ask your stylist if a rich golden copper color would complement your skin tone.
