Follow all of the steps in this article to feather your shoulder length hair. Start with clean hair, determine where you want your part at, section your hair, and began creating loose curls, focusing especially on the middle to ends so that your feathers are defined.

Expert Answer

With long hair, you can choose to get long layers. With long layers, the feathers will be towards the ends of your hair. If you want your long hair layered from top to bottom, that’s an option an well, but with long hair it may not look as flattering.
