Hi all!
I'm a little "worried" about how my hemline looks :(
My mane thickness is about 2.95'' and i had a consistent shed about 10 years ago (telogen effluvium) treated by a dermatologist.
Some hair grew up again but I have low to medium density hair at my scalp (it's genetics :rolleyes:).
This is a picture about the situation of my hemline:

I've a layered haicut to enhance the curl pattern and to suit better my face shape (i've a long face but not slim, so i need volume near the cheekbone to balance the proportions but at the same time i need length from my neck down to make my face slimmer).
The problem is that as soon as my hair passes SL, the length start seeming thinner :(
I have no damage at all (no split-ends, no tapered ends, no breakage) and I get a 0.5-1 inch trim every 3 or 4 months.
I never heat style, i dry my hair with warm diffuser or air dry between late spring and early autumn.
I use flaxseed gel (with hydrolized keratin in it) as styling gel and sometimes i do oil/smt pre-wash treatments.
I do henna every 2-3 months too.
Even my hairdresser says that my hair is not damaged and the tapered look depends on my low-medium density :(
I need to find a compromise between my wish of a thicker hemline and the presence of layers that suit better my face and my curls.
I was wondering about a U-shaped hemline :hmm: to achieve layered lengths only on the sides and let the density untouched into the mane (I'm sorry if i'm su**ing at explaining this idea but i don't know the hair lingo :().
Any advise?
Thank you sooo much :blossom:
