Short Haircuts For Women

Short Haircuts For Women

Now is the time to consider a short haircut for women, now that the heat of Summer is right around the corner. Other considerations for when one gets a short haircut include being prepared for what haircut will work best with your facial features. Also, one has to be ready to have shorter hair for the first time – especially if you had longer hair most or all of your life. Think over whether a short haircut is appropriate for you and if so, be prepared to search for cuts that will look good on you. If you are uncertain about a certain cut, ask your stylist if it will complement your facial features and work with your overall “look.” Other great resources for ideas include magazines, online sites, and even at the salon where albums show different trendy haircuts.

If you decide to pursue a short haircut, the next step is to decide how short you want your hair to be. If you choose to be daring and go with very short hair, there are multiple styles for that. One such haircut is the pixie. The pixie cut has several variants, some going for volume on top and others going for a messier look – almost spiky at the top. The cut is usually above the ears so if you are self conscious about your ears or a certain facial feature, this may not be the cut for you. The style is best described as short and whimsical, offering a sassy style that not everyone is able to wear.

If you are looking for a short haircut but do not want your hair to be too short, a bob may be the best style for you. Bobs are a versatile cut because they can be done at different lengths, and can be styled differently, allowing for variation with the cut. The bob is cut straight with straight bangs and the hair is usually curled inward on the sides and back. A bob can also be cut at an angle towards the chin. Some bobs are cut so that they accentuate facial features. Ask your stylist if a bob cut is appropriate for you and even what particular type of bob he/she recommends for you.

A short crop is another haircut that is very short and trendy for Summer. The hair does not come up more than a few inches on the head. This cut can sometimes even be shorter than a pixie cut. This cut typically is spiky or flat against the head, depending on how the person wants to wear it. This is not a style for someone that is self-conscious about their facial features as this style will accentuate everything on the face. This style requires only a little effort in preparing for the day.

When you decide to get one of the short haircuts for women, remember that there are many styles. Don’t limit yourself! The ones listed above are just a few examples. Be prepared to determine what cut will look best on you and how it will look in various situations and level of formality/casualness. Think about if it will be manageable on a daily basis and ultimately if it is right for you and your lifestyle.
