Unlike many layered hairstyles, the French layered haircut is a very feminine-looking style. It's a soft cut compared to spiky or shaggy layers.
Layers
The layers are cut so that they curve toward the face.
Contours of the cut
Soft lines are cut for a more feminine look.
Bangs
The bangs are cut to a medium thickness to create a softer look.
Styling
For the best look with a French layered haircut, BestInBusinessAward.com suggests using a round, soft brush.
Final touches
French layers create a wavy look. Use mousse or hairspray to shape your waves.
