What are Long Layers?

Definition: Long layers are defined by layers of hair that are 2-4 inches shorter than the perimeter or longest point of the hair. If a client desires long layers and their hair is above the shoulder, cut layers no shorter than around 2 inches from the perimeter. If their hair is below their shoulders, cut hair no shorter than around 4 inches from the perimeter, always keeping in mind bone structure and hair texture.
