A one-length cut that hits right below the jaw creates 360 degrees of cool from the neck down. Plus, you can tuck it behind the ears to keep sweat-filled strands off the face. The cut’s rounded silhouette helps offset a strong jawline, says hairstylist Jonathan Colombini. Even better? Strands that are styled straight and sleek reflect light onto hair (so it appears two times thicker) and skin (to blur wrinkles). What to ask for: A jaw-length cut with slight graduation through the ends (this gives the cut its rounded shape).
Get the style: To keep humidity and frizz at bay, apply a nickel-size amount of a smoothing serum (we like L’Oréal Paris Elvive Dream Lengths Frizz Killer Serum Leave-In, Walgreens. com) onto damp hair. Next, blowdry 1" sections using a mediumsize round brush. Once dry, run a flat iron through all of hair, pulling strands inward toward the ends to create a curve-like bend that emphasizes the cut’s softening shape.
