Sometimes layering long hair and maintaining length can feel scary. Follow these simple rules to create seamless layers and keep the hair as long as you want to. Elevate the hair when you cut the layers to remove weight making them seamless. Over directing the hair away from where it falls naturally will maintain length. In short, lift the hair to the highest point and pull the hair you want to keep long away from where it falls to keep it as long as possible. | Alex Walker
