Parted shag
Refresh your look with a parted shag—layered, face-framing, and full of movement.
About Parted shag
The parted shag is a versatile layered haircut characterized by a defined part—either center or side—that guides the placement of layers to frame the face and add movement. This style features multiple layers throughout the hair, with shorter layers around the cheekbones and jawline to enhance facial features, while longer layers maintain length and flow. Textured ends create a lived-in, effortless look that works well with straight, wavy, or fine hair textures. Popular in Levantine regions like Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine for its balance of structure and softness, the parted shag suits those seeking a modern, low-fuss style with volume and dimension. In Birmingham, clients choose this haircut for its adaptability to various hair types and its ability to refresh one's appearance without drastic change. At Niyo Hair and Beauty, our stylists expertly craft this cut to suit your features, and jorra.ai can help you explore styling options. Ideal for everyday wear or special occasions, it offers a chic, contemporary vibe.
