A lot of celebrities have been pulling off the short hairstyle for years, and they all look fantastic. That means there is no reason why you shouldn’t try a short hairstyle if you’re into it. As long as you like it – you can make anyone else like it too. Before you choose any of these haircuts, have in mind that short hair can be more work than long hair and you might need more time to style it.
1. Side Short Straight Hairstyle
Just as the name suggests this is a hairstyle for ladies with straight short hair. It is a very fun, casual and romantic hairstyle and it can be a lot more.
The general style is to cut your hair to a boyish length. It should be layered and the bangs should be longer (reaching your cheek bones at least) and placed at one side along your jaw line. Now, you can do basically anything you like with this type of hairdo. Get some highlights for a casual look, or go with fuss Halle Berry style for a rebellious kind of look.
Generally speaking, this is the easiest short hairstyle to maintain. Whatever you want to do with it shouldn’t take more than 10 minutes and a little hair gel or moose. However, you’ll need to see your hairstylist on a pretty regular basis – every 4 to 6 weeks. This hairstyle is fantastic for girls with round faces, because it creates the illusion of a longer face.
2. Front Short Straight Hairstyle
Another hairstyle meant for girls with straight hair, but with a little twist. This time, the bangs should be shorter, just reaching your eyebrows. You can either wear them over your whole forehead, or at one side.
This could be a really cool rock and roll hairstyle, especially if you decide to color your hair red. It is also very advisable for ladies over forty years of age, because it will shave of a couple of years of their look.
When it comes to styling, it pretty much depends on your preferences. For the rock and roll look, let your bangs fall across your forehead and give some extra volume to the hair at the top of your head. Use some hair wax to taper the sides and achieve an even cooler look. If you like it soft and romantic, choose the style Jennifer Goodwin has in Once Upon a Time.
3. The Bob
It had to make it in the list. After all, the bob hairstyle has been around for many years. And it passed through many variations, and it is still one of the most loved styles among women.
Before I start, I have to tell you this – if you have a round shaped face and a couple of extra pounds do not ever give yourself the bob haircut. As cute as it may be, it will only make you look even more round.
There are really a lot of different styles when it comes to bob haircut. The simplest one is probably straight, one length hair reaching below your ears and straight bangs across your forehead. More interesting are layered bob hairstyles with bangs worn at one side and tapered ends. Whichever you choose, make sure it really does suit you, and that you’re not getting it just because it’s “in” right now.
Remember that this can be really tough to maintain. Every morning you will wake up to see that your hair needs another set of styling, because it got all messed up while you were sleeping. On the other hand – the bob looks fantastic on both straight and waved hair and with a little extra effort you can have a perfect casual, or a perfect glamorous hairdo.
A lot of ladies will probably choose a hairstyle they’ve seen on some celebrity. Have in mind that just because it looks good on her, it doesn’t mean it will look good on you too. Check out iVillage and try out some celebrity hairstyles before you decide to get one.
