Short Haircut Styles

As far as short haircut styles go, we may find that a lot of times, we can’t figure out what we should use in order to decide which types of haircuts are best for us. However, there are a few things that you can look into about short haircut styles that will quickly let you figure out whether short hair is for you! First of all, how hot do you get? If you’re one of those people who ends up with sweat pouring down the back of their neck, making their hair stick really, really grossly to the back of your neck…and it just feels really yucky, then you might want to think about short haircut styles.

Do you think that African American short hairstyles aren’t for you? Do you think that you have to have straight hair or relaxed hair in order to have short hair? Well, here’s a list of African American short hairstyles—for several different types of African American hair! First, you have the obvious mini-fro. Of course, you’re probably thinking that’s not going to look so great on girls. However, what you’re forgetting is that you can take a mini-fro—which is just one of many great African American short hairstyles—and you can decorate it and make it more feminine. Clips, barrettes, headbands, and all of the other items that fall into that category are perfect for decorating your fro and making it ten times as girly and cute. Next, you have the pixie cut. African American hair is great for pixie cuts—because it’s a bit more manageable and less likely to frizz than Caucasian hair.

Long Curly Hair Styles

Long curly hair styles can be lots of fun—after all, they’re unique. Not a lot of people have curly hair. But, if you don’t have curly hair, how precisely do you achieve what you’re looking for?

What are you curious about when it comes to short, curly hairstyles? What questions do you have? Well, when it comes to short, curly hairstyles, people are curious. Mainly because there are so many different hairstyles and so many ways that you can play with them…but short curly hairstyles are a bit harder to deal with and a lot of people don’t know the best way to style them.

Long Haircuts

When it comes to long haircuts, you may be unsure as to which haircuts will work best with what type of hair. However, we have a list here that’s there to help! First of all, long haircuts with curly hair require longer layers—too short and these layers will end up causing way too much volume. Talk with your stylist to see what they recommend for your particular curls. Different hair textures have different needs. Next, if you have long, straight hair, then you need to look into long haircuts that are more focused on layers, especially if you have volume in mind. Again, you want to have longer layers, but you can start at about shoulder length and then proceed to go from there. You may also need to check with your stylist to see what types of layers will add the most volume to your cut. It might take a little bit of trial and layer—but you might find that you have something that you absolutely love.

When it comes to celebrity short hairstyles, you have to keep in mind that almost all of their haircuts can be adapted to something flattering for you—even if you don’t have a typical face shape or if you aren’t sure that it’ll work. First on our list of celebrity short hairstyles—Emma Watson. Emma Watson’s short hair is truly innovative and gives her a kind of soft, feminine, but still punky haircut.

80s Hairstyles

80s hairstyles seem to always be coming back. Perhaps this is because 80s hairstyles were the very start of the rebel look. The 60s stayed with long skinny locks that were often not always clean whereas the 80s hairstyles were often funky and when one remembers who the 80s celebrities were it is obvious why the 80s hairstyles were what they were. Some of the celebs were Madonna with her at the time longish white blond locks and there was Dynasty the TV show that had the stars with big hair styles, big shoulder pads and often ruffles as a designer aid. To combat this type of clothing one had to have that wild hair like Farrah Fawcett. Bo Derek was another 80s star whose hair style led the way with its blond long locks. Often the 80s brought in vivid and bright color or sometimes a long sheath of hair on one side of the head and the other side was shaved. David Bowie also comes to mind for a male 80s singing star. So twenty years later some of the 80s styles are returning to both hairsty
