The universal and simple garcon haircut is chosen by women of different ages. It suits any hair quality and face shape. Garcon can be made both ultra-short and romantically elongated. Numerous styling products will allow you to style your curls in any style and combine such a hairstyle with the most original look.

Garcon haircut 2024: execution technique

The basic principle of creating a hairdressing masterpiece garcon is the use of the "strand by strand" haircut technique. Each lock is pulled from the base at different angles and only then cut. Before starting the procedure, the hair must be wetted, or better yet, thoroughly washed.

The whole process can be divided into stages:

  1. Wet hair should be divided into a crown zone, an occipital zone and two temporal zones. At the back of the head, using a straight parting that runs from the crown to the hollow of the neck, two more zones are distinguished. From here, you should begin the process of creating the shape of the hairstyle.
  2. At this point, using a small horizontal parting, select a strand about 10 mm wide. It is pulled down to begin shaping the edging of the desired shape and length. When choosing the length, remember that after drying, the strands will appear shorter, as will the overall length of the haircut. The edging can be oval or crescent-shaped.
  3. Further on the way from the bottom to the middle of the back of the head, the angle of pulling should be increased. If the first strand lies at an angle of 0 degrees, then at the extreme point of this zone the curls are pulled at an angle of 45 degrees.
  4. In the mid-occipital area, the angle can reach 90 degrees, but at the crown it decreases again to 30.
  5. To cut the temple parts, you need to pull the strands away from the ear parallel to the hair growth. All other curls on the temples are cut using the graduation method.
  6. The crown hair is measured by the length of the last strand in the temporal zone. A strand of half a centimeter is selected on the crown, it is captured together with part of the hair from the temple and their length is checked. From this control mark, the hair is cut to the forehead.
  7. When pulling strands from symmetrical parts of the head, it is necessary to check their length for control. If the strands are not the same, then correction is necessary.
  8. If you are planning to have bangs, you will need to leave some hair for them in advance. The thicker you plan to have this detail, the more hair you will need to separate.

An important stage: laying

The easiest way is to style the haircut with a hairdryer, a large round brush and foam. The shortest hairstyles can be done casually. For business women, a sleek style with neat bangs or without them at all is more suitable.

Longer hair cut using the garcon technique will require more time and styling products. You should stock up on:

Regardless of the length, the hair must first be wetted. Then apply the foam. First, you need to take it in your hands and rub it between your fingers. Casual styling allows for simple drying with hot air directed from different directions. In this case, the hair will appear more voluminous and thicker.

Longer strands should be curled separately. If desired, you can highlight smaller strands. In this case, the styling will differ from that formed by large curls. In any case, it is better to leave the bangs straight. The styling will be ideal only in the case of regular care and monthly correction of regrown hair.

Options with bangs

In the matter of choosing a fringe, it can be safely stated that the garcon allows you to use any shape. It looks equally impressive both with short torn strands at the top of the forehead and with thick voluminous bangs. Here, the decisive factor is only the shape of the face of the owner of the haircut.

A round or square face will appear even wider from a straight, thick fringe to the eyebrows. Asymmetrical options are best suited here. An oval face allows you to use any shape. This is an endless field for experimentation. Long fringe, which significantly exceeds the length of the haircut itself, looks somewhat hooligan. But a smooth comb-over and the use of styling products can make the image very elegant and adapt it to an office worker.

Don't forget about the fashion trend of the 2018 season - coloring the bangs. Youthful images allow bright colors and contrasting combinations in the hairstyle. Business style looks organic with bangs lightened only a couple of tones. In addition, it is recommended to correctly combine the texture of the hairstyle. If the haircut is designed with torn thinned strands, then straight smooth bangs will not fit into the look. And vice versa: smooth transitions from level to level in the haircut will require the same neat bangs. If desired, with the help of styling products, you can always "smooth out" torn bangs or ruffle smooth ones.

Long garcon

It is worth talking separately about the garcon haircut, made for long hair. We are not talking about the generally accepted concept of long hair, when it reaches shoulder level and below. It's just that in this case we are not talking about an ultra-short haircut. The principle of styling the hairstyle remains the same, but the curls usually cover the ears and reach the middle of the neck. This option is suitable for those who want to grow their hair or for some reason cannot afford ultra-short hairstyles.

This haircut looks organic with coloring, highlighting and coloring. The practice of hairdressing masters says that curly hair should be approached somewhat differently. The tighter the curls, the longer the haircut should be. This should be remembered when cutting the first control strand, which will shorten its length when drying and can completely change the appearance.

The versatility of the garcon is obvious. It is worn by young girls and mature ladies, owners of any face shape in combination with a properly selected bang. Also, the haircut will allow you to use many types of coloring. The only drawback is that such a hairstyle needs to be refreshed regularly. But, on the other hand, this is a great opportunity to add something new to your look every month.
