Preserving Your Cut Structure & Mirror Shine
Now that you’ve learned the basics of a medium and long layered cut, it’s time to talk about how to care for your hair in the long term.
One of the most important things to remember is to avoid over-processing your hair with heat styling tools.
Instead, use a heat protectant spray to protect your hair from damage.
Additionally, be sure to use a color-preserving shampoo and conditioner to keep your color looking vibrant and healthy.
Finally, be sure to get regular trims to prevent split ends and breakage.
By following these tips, you can keep your medium and long layered cut looking its best for months to come.
