And what could be better than long hair when it comes to showing off movement?
#14: Messy Waves
These messed-up waves are so part-ready! Malibu’s bright lights make the flow even better as they create subtle pops of brightness every time they pass through blonde streaks.
The length should be at shoulder level to give you a sassy lob.
#15: Long Jet Black Curls for an Evening Out

#17: The Blowout
Looking for lengthy hair that looks voluminous? Blowout style is what you need to invest in right now; pull out the brush and the dryer. Seeing caramel balayage flowing like this is splendid!
“This was a transitional phase for cooler tones,” says stylist Megan Grimm of Broad Ripple, IN who created the color. “For people with natural levels 5 and below, this beige hue makes healthy transition into light cool tones.” Her round-cut or round-layered hairdo creates motion away from her face.”
When styling this cut, style with the hair’s weight and how the cut was performed. Style away from the face. This color combination works well for individuals with neutral or olive undertones, giving a softness and luminosity to the skin.
#18: The High Bun
Be bold and glamorous in this creative hairstyle. Adding an embellishment at one corner makes that high bun even more dramatic. The dark brown locks look softer when they have some face-framing pieces on them.
It’s still feminine with a touch of whimsical elegance which is my favorite thing about it.
For this style to work, your hair needs to be on the longer side so if it is not then add some extensions. Bulk up fine textured hair first by crimping it slightly if you have a finer texture.
Working products must include hairspray. An accessory of your choice can also show off your personality or for an everyday look go accessory free.
#19: Middle Part Side Braid that Compliments Short Hair
This is boho beach waves with a “thick” side braid; I emphasized thick because that’s what people usually ask me. The best part of this look is the big braid on one side of her head –it starts right from the middle part!
To create an extended braid, the only thing you need to do differently is put a texture or thickening spray such as Oribe’s Dry Texture Spray on it and then pull it apart gently to make the braid bigger.
Long hair is perfect for this but even more so for short hair, in fact. This is a great way for long bob haircuts to have an elegant finish.
You may do more beach waves and wear it outside, or just put extra curls into your curls to style them like bridesmaids or a bride at a wedding.
