[Full Analysis] Long waves with center part for u/OliveGeneral9676 (r/malehairadvice)

u/OliveGeneral9676, here's your full analysis:

Original post: r/malehairadvice

You have long, straight-to-wavy hair with loose waves, medium density, and a slightly dry/frizzy finish through the mid-lengths and ends. Your color reads as dark blonde/light brown with warmer golden undertones and lighter sun-exposed ends (#8A6238, #B07A3B, #D2A15A).

Your face appears long and narrow with a soft jawline and balanced features, so you suit shapes that keep width at the sides and avoid adding extra height on top. A shoulder-length layered cut or a cleaner long shag would work well because it preserves your length while giving the waves structure and making the sides look fuller. A blunt, heavy shape would likely feel too flat; lighter layers around the cheekbone and jaw area will frame your face better.

For styling, use a lightweight leave-in or curl cream on damp hair, then scrunch and air-dry or diffuse on low heat to encourage your natural wave pattern. A small amount of matte cream or sea-salt spray at the roots can add lift without making the lengths look greasy. If you keep it longer, regular dusting trims will help reduce the frayed look at the ends.
