Blunt cuts look best only on straight hair. There is so less maintenance that a blunt demands for, more so when you have luxuriously straight hair. To give a variation to it, you may add few fringes in the front. But if you have a big forehead and you want to cover it, you may add strong fringes to the haircut. This will give an effect of a cropped forehead. This one looks super cute, I’d say.

2. Layer Cut

As compared to the classic step cut, layers are more in tune with straight hair. Straight hair flows down smoothly, thereby, conserves the shape of the layer cut. Layer cuts need a lot of maintaining if worn on curly or wavy hair because they always fly away from the shape. Thankfully, with straight hair, your struggle will be cut down to a great extent. You can wear the layer cut with the hair blown inside or outside. They both look very different from each other and are super easy to brush into.

3. Shaped Cuts

Next two hair styles for you are the V-cut and the U-cut. Both these cuts are very neat and give your hair an added bounce. The V-cut will make your hair look longer than it really is because of its descending shape and pointed end.

4. U-Cut

The U-cut is an ageless style and is being worn by women across boundaries. The cut adds volume to your hair, and gives a simplistic yet classy look.

5. Angular Bob

Angular bob is superhot at the moment and for all the good reasons. When you have straight hair, it feels even better to have it in one length. You can attempt an angular bob to add body to your hair. The angular layers allow the hair to look longer in the front and shorter at the back giving it an instant upgrade.

6. Non-Layered Haircut

Typically, straight hair does not look bad when going shoulder-length. Adding a bit of ombre highlights complements the overall hairdo. Allow the dark roots to show. This hype over its low maintenance is 100% true.

7. Full Frontal Layers

If you have thin hair, then you can add feathery layers up front with pleasure. This can give your hair the desired body and shape. Thanks to the razored layers and jagged fringe, this haircut throws in a light feel- the finish and achieved texture of your shoulder length hair being the exception.

8. Fringe

Because fringe looks best on women with fine textured hair because the hair lays softer after the cut. This hairdo is versatile as you can style it straight and sleek. Go for a straight cut fringe that does not look blocky. The light face-framing layers can work great with medium-length straight hair. It is a low-maintenance idea and requires little or no styling.

Brushing Styles:

If you are not looking at chopping off your hair into any particular pattern, here are a few things you can do to those lustrous manes. Say you have mid-length hair. Let them loose but brush them in a different patterns every alternate day.

Middle Partition:

Divide your wet hair in the middle and blow dry. If you have thin hair, try to tease them or back-comb them before evening them out into a neat brushed look. Back combing will give it a fake volume.

Side Partition:

Now do the same routine the next day. But, instead of parting the hair in the middle, section it sideways. Leaving everything else same, you can still manage to look a hell lot different.

Neat Back Brush:

Another less-than-five-minutes hair style would be to pull your hair back. Leave the forehead clear, and secure the hair behind with a hair band or bobby pins. The puffed back brush is really in these days. Puff looks great on almost all face shapes, unless you have a very round face with meaty cheeks. Try and match your hair accessories with your outfit.

Back Brush With Fringes:

Keep the wide sections of your hair loose from the front. Arrange them into a middle partition or side partition as per your preference. Take rest of the hair behind your head and bind them with hair pins. Here again you may opt for a puff.

Different Ways Of Hair Ties For Straight Hair

Pony tails are appropriate for all occasions and venues. They go well with formal attire for office and you can also wear them with Indian outfits like salwar kameez. You may keep them neatly tied behind or leave a few fringes here and there. Pony tails look good on school students too.
