Jennifer Aniston Hairstyles

If having this Jennifer Aniston type style is your desire, the following suggestions may be helpful in creating something similar. This is a brief synopsis of the "Friends Cut" The following is very helpful to convey to your stylist and communicate the best way to achieve this style.

The Cut:
In the Friends Style, the top layers are extended to about the chin. The bangs are at another level, long and to the side, with the ends reaching down to just below the cheekbone. The lower layers graduate down to the shoulders, allowing for a soft closeness around the neck, and the needed movement

The layers of the longer style start at about chin level and extend to below the shoulders. These layers graduate down to the ends for a closer feeling toward the bottom without causing a thin or stringy appearance.

The Styling:
After receiving the haircut of your choice, you will need to use styling mousse in the roots that is formulated for your hair texture. For fine hair a volumizing product while for heavy hair, a gel or wax with enough strength to hold the fullness, and for frizzy hair, a smoothing product to get a smooth controlled look.

Remember you can do what is called "cocktailing". This is mixing products together in the palm of your hand before applying.

In all cases, finishes with a light, flexible hold hair spray.

For the "Friends" cut, blow dry using a large round brush. Finish by placing a few large Velcro rollers in the crown for fullness.

For the longer looks, blow dry using a paddle brush for the ultra-straight smooth look and finish with a large round brush on the ends to create a soft curve. A little backcombing in the crown will give you the small amount of fullness that is needed.
