At the peak of popularity

This season, fashion trends are on the side of hairstyles with a parting to the side: no matter which side it is made from, such a haircut gives a certain zest to any look. Side parting is universal: it is performed on short or long hair, sometimes it requires styling, sometimes it allows you to do without it. Shaved options require regular care and restoration of shape - in such haircuts, the lines should not be lost, and the parting border should “blur”.

Many variations of men's hairstyles with a parting can be divided into several large categories:

  • out of fashion for decades classic haircuts: short temporal zones are combined with evenly laid sideways strands of short or medium length. Recommended for coarse hair, styling products may be required for styling and fixing;
  • sports haircuts most often performed on medium hair, but with short sides and back of the head - it is important that the strands near the face do not interfere with physical activity, and therefore they are simply removed. Neat styling and side parting make such haircuts in demand in the business sector;
  • - a modern youth option that has many solutions: more and more often there is a creative haircut with one shaved temple and long strands on the other side. Often shaved areas in such haircuts are used for tattooing or shaved inscriptions, patterns, etc. Such haircuts are not recommended for owners of thin hair;
  • shaved parting in a men's haircut, it is often combined with ultra-short temples. In general, such rather original haircuts are not recommended for older men and persons in leadership positions or revolving in business. Shaved temples and parting are not suitable for a thin and / or elongated face, as they visually stretch it even more. These haircuts are ideal for creative and bright young men, as well as for those with rough facial features and prominent cheekbones.

In this article and video tutorial, we will talk about all types of partings used when cutting hair and their effect on its shape.

In hairdressing, seven types of parting directions are used. This:

  • vertical;
  • horizontal;
  • diagonal-frontal;
  • diagonal;
  • floating;
  • rotating;
  • radial.

Vertical partings

Designed mainly for creating progressive and graduated haircuts. The main feature of this type is that the result is no massive line. It is important to know that the longer the curls, the more floating the volume will be.

They are used mainly for cutting short hair and for masculine and progressive shapes.

Horizontal partings

Used for haircuts with a pronounced mass line. And very rarely used for progressive forms. As a result of applying this type of haircut, they are obtained with a clear edging line, if you do not use active thinning and additional cuts.

This is the most professional look.

Diagonal-front partings

They combine vertical and horizontal partings and their features. Best suited for graduation. The result is a very pronounced mass line.

They reduce graduation towards the face, and also slightly lengthen the haircut in a diagonal downward direction.

Reverse Diagonal Parting

This view is similar to the diagonal-frontal. It is used for the same forms with one difference: the volume and elongation increase towards the back of the head (diagonally down).

floating partings

They are an improved type of horizontal. However, their main advantage is that its selection occurs in the same direction as the edging of the entire haircut or a separate block. This feature is well suited for areas where a edging line is needed immediately in the haircut.

Rotating (unfolding) partings

They, just as in the case of radial ones, arise from one point.

Only their big advantage is that you can choose this point in any chosen place, depending on what effect you need.

As a result of their use, a crescent-shaped graduation is obtained. Most often, this type of parting is used when creating legs for cutting "Kare" and for "Ladder".

The middle parting is a classic option, and like any classic, it is always popular and rarely goes out of style. In the current season, it is a trend, so use it when creating hairstyles, both on your own and with the help of professional hairdressers, and you will surely look stylish and fashionable.

Who is a straight cut suitable for?

  • Straight parting is a great choice for girls with an oval face shape. With its help, the emphasis is obtained on the middle of the face, while the correct proportions are perfectly emphasized. Also, the division of hair in the middle should be given preference to girls with a round face, because it visually lengthens a little and at the same time hides excessive roundness.
  • Trying to separate the hair in the middle of the head is also recommended for owners of a square face. A line in the center of the hair will help correct the angularity and smooth out the contours, making the oval more delicate and soft.
  • Straight hair parting is ideal for women whose face has regular symmetrical features. If there is even the slightest asymmetry, for example, in the form of a lowered corner of the lips or a raised eyebrow, such a division of the hair should be abandoned, as the flaws will become even more noticeable.
  • You should not separate the hair right in the middle of the head and women with a narrow face, as well as owners of a triangular shape. In the first case, the face will become even more elongated, and in the second case, the already small chin will visually decrease. The division of hair in the middle of the head is not suitable, and in the case of a short haircut without bangs, the strands will stick out on the sides, resembling a clown wig.
  • Also, dull and weakened hair is not suitable for a straight parting. It is worth abandoning it even with regrown roots of dyed hair. If the hair is healthy, shiny and well-groomed, such separation is only welcome. Plus, you can easily make it at home.

Haircuts with a straight parting

Long haircuts with a straight parting look best. Due to its length, the hair keeps its shape perfectly, and the separation is maintained for a long time even without additional efforts. Usually haircuts with such a parting on long hair are made without bangs, but you can experiment if you wish. However, do not make oblique bangs so that the hairstyle does not look chaotic and made up of two different parts.

Medium haircuts with a straight parting are also popular. To add volume in such a hairstyle, you can make a bouffant on the back of your head or curl the curls and collect them at the back into a soft wave, or put curls on both sides of the face. There are a huge number of options. Going through several of them, it is easy to choose the most suitable hairstyle step by step.

You should be especially careful to experiment with the division of strands in the center on short haircuts, especially if they are performed without bangs. Short hair, parted right in the middle of the head, can stick out to either side, thus creating a funny look.

Hairstyles with a straight parting

Direct parting of the hair is a great opportunity to change the hairstyle without resorting to cutting it. At the same time, hairstyles with a straight parting can be created both on loose and gathered hair. For example, such a separation of hair in buns and braids, tails and evening styling, on straight and curled hair looks interesting. By the way, you can make a ponytail with such a division of hair with your own hands, acting in stages: first, dividing the hair in the middle, and then carefully gathering it into a ponytail.

With the right selection, straight-parted hairstyles can add style and elegance, femininity or simplicity to an image. The instruction for their creation usually begins with the division of curls in the center of the head, since it should be clear.

Hairstyles with bangs

There are a huge number of hairstyles with bangs, but not all of them should be done with a parting. Of course, it will look sloppy on asymmetrical haircuts and in combination with oblique bangs. The bangs with a straight parting look perfect on long or medium flowing hair. You can also try to braid a braid or tail, collect your hair in a low bun. If the bangs are long enough, they can also be split in half so that they frame the forehead and slightly hide the cheekbones. In this case, straight bangs should be curled a little at the ends to give softness.

How to change parting

Most people don't even notice that their hair is parting naturally. It is best seen on almost dry hair, if you run a comb through it, moving from the forehead to the top of the head, and then slightly tilt your head forward. If such a separation has been maintained for years, it is quite difficult to change it, for example, from a side to a straight line, without improvised means. The change scheme is simple: for this you should use various styling products - gels, varnishes, wax, etc. Before you make a straight parting, it is recommended to wash your hair, as it is much easier to form it on wet strands.

Many people keep the same parting for years without changing. Even when they do a different hairstyle, they leave it in the same place. Meanwhile, parting can radically change your appearance.

In my place

Most people have their natural parting. Finding it is very simple: just wash your hair and go through the comb through the hair that has not yet dried, heading from the forehead to the top of the head. After that, they are released, tilting their head slightly forward. Then you can see exactly how the curls are divided.

Those who want to change the parting need to draw a straight line where they want it while still on damp hair. They won't hold up as well when dry as when wet. If the parting has not changed for years, then you will need to make more efforts and use special styling products.

Types of partings
