Super short hairstyles are walking the runways and red carpet this fall with the likes of Carrie Mulligan (pictured on the left), Halle Berry, and Katie Holmes sporting fashionably fabulous short dues. But is it right for you?
The answer is yes and no. Some face shapes are great for super short looks, others for chin length bobs. Just make sure that whatever style you choose you take into consideration a few things before you chop off your locks!
First, consider the rest of your look by asking yourself a few questions. What kind of makeup do you wear, your style, your clothes, are you more edgy or chic? What about your work environment? Make sure your hair will work for the day and transform into the night. If you're a flip-flop casual kind of girl then you might want a look that is low maintanance.
Second, make sure your cut has style and is something that you can do once you leave the salon. Working with a good stylist can be key to getting the right look that fits your needs. A good stylist will always recommend products and ideas on how you can maintain your new look when you are home.
Third, do you have curly or textured hair? Keep that in mind when you get your hair cut the texture of your hair will make a huge difference as to how it looks. An a-symmetrical bob might be hard to maintain if you have naturally curly hair, unless you are willing to flat-iron or straighten your hair everyday. If you love the bob and are sure it is the best style for you, then consider a Brazilian Blowout to lessen the frizz and add more smoothness. Short hair with added texture can also give you an edge. If you have super straight hair and want more of a flowing look with your short hair, try using a curling iron.
Finally, pay attention to your natural features. Short hair draws attention to your face so make sure the cut is angled to enhance your features. Adding layers or angled bangs can accentuate cheekbones or draw attention away from your nose. Ask your hair stylist to help you achieve the most gorgeous feminine short haircut that compliments your face and style.
