Best Long Hairstyles: Piece-y Layers We love how this long hairstyle pairs the choppiness of a '70s-inspired cut with a sleek, modern finish. Textured, straight across bangs that fall to the brow bone work well with fine hair and compliment most face shapes, while choppy layers throughout create dimension and look great worn straight or curly.

This is one of the trendiest hairstyles for long hair this year, and is perfect for those who can't grow their hair down to the floor, but still want to achieve a sexy look.

I miss my long hair! Everyone says I look younger since I cut it to a bob so I will take that.

Thank you for mentioning the donation of hair. I try to mention it when I can, but never knew the different lengths asked for. Also, some area hairdressers will actually sometimes be able to do it too.

I finally cut my hair shorter (medium length) and couldn't stand it. Make sure you go in stages if you've had long hair for awhile!

I've wanted to have "mermaid hair" for years. My hair is super thick but never grows past mid-back. I finally got over the super long hair and wear mine a couple inches below the collarbone. It really does look better on me and it looks thicker. Great article!
