What is the difference between long layers and short layers?

Question

And which ones do you think look better?

Answer 1

Short layers start like around the top of your ears and go down from there and long layers start around your jaw and go down from there!!

Which ones look better depends on the hairstyle. If you want a choppy look like this http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=h... then short layers will work best and if you want a style like this http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/... then long layers will work best!!

Answer 2

short layers are most noticable i think

Answer 3

Short layers are more noticeable and long layers start at the chin and are used when you have to put your hair up in a ponytail like for sports.  I like both because you can get long layers to be noticeable too so if you don't need a ponytail go for short but if you do go for long

Answer 4

Long layers are more sporty so if you were to do a sport you could put them back in a pony tail. I have them. Also long layers are for long hair short layers are for short hair. I think Long layers look better persnally. But it depends on your face shape.
