Layers of hair refer to a hairstyling technique that involves cutting hair into different lengths, creating a stacked effect. One common example is a layered bob, where the hair is cut shorter in the back and gradually gets longer towards the front.
Layering hair has gained widespread popularity due to its versatility and ability to enhance volume, texture, and movement. Historically, layering techniques have evolved from ancient Egyptian times, where elaborate hairstyles often featured tiered layers.
