There's something to be said for a winning haircut, and not just how great it looks, but how it makes you feel. There are literally dozens of ways to cut hair into different lengths, but there are two ways that seem to flatter most hair types. The V-Haircut and the U-Cut are fairly self-explanatory terms, based on their name and the shape they give to your hair. The “V” is heavily layered to create a V-shaped point at the ends, while the “U” is mostly rounded on the sides to the ends. The great thing about these specific hairstyles is that they flatter long, medium and short hair equally, creating depth, dimension and movement in your locks.

Deciding which cut is best for you and your hair largely depends on the look you are trying to achieve. For example, if you are looking for a style with lots of layers and a lot of movement, then the “V” is best, but if you want something decidedly more subtle with more even length, then you should go for the “U”. If you still need some help with your decision-making process, take a look at some of the most popular “V” and “U” pieces on the internet for inspiration. Ready, set, CUT!
If your natural hair is very thick, it can be difficult to create the desired shape due to the size of your locks. However, the best way to combat extreme thickness is to try V-shaped layers, as seen here with this long style.
Long, blonde and wavy are always the features that promise a beautiful hairstyle, especially when they are derived from a V-shaped hairstyle like this one. These long blonde locks are given life and movement thanks to the soft waves, center part and expert V-cutting technique.
