50 Cute and Effortless Long Layered Haircuts with Bangs
Long layered hairstyles with bangs are now in great demand. Why? Everyone wants a flattering hairstyle, that’s also trendy, effortless-looking and convenient. When you wish to show off your beautiful long locks, try a layered haircut. Layers make long hair more manageable and eliminate the irritating factor of longer strands getting in the way or falling into your face every now and then. If you also want to rock your long hair without a single pin, get some straight-cut or layered bangs.
Variety of Long Hairstyles
Layered hairstyles for long hair are not all alike, and you should try different textures and types of bangs for some variety and also in order to find your most flattering options. Here are trendy ideas for wavy and straight, shaggy and sleek, balayage and ombre long hairstyles with layers and bangs.

V-cut layers are for the bombshell in all of us! If you frequently blow out your hair, a v-cut is perfect for adding movement to your already gorgeously tousled locks. For this look, bangs with long hair should be a bit longer to appropriately blend in with the length of your locks.
#2: Long Layers with Eye-Brow Grazing Bangs
Shoulder length hair can also benefit from layers, as is exemplified by the photo below. If your hair is thinner, then layers can add texture and style. Long bangs that graze past the eyebrows soften the entire look of Taylor Swift.
