Short hair style? Make it stylish, sexy and chic
By Michael Barrows
Looking for a short hair style? This article explains you how you can make your hair style short, but still stylish,
sexy and chic.
In all of its transformations and variations, the short hair style has always been numbered at the top of the list when
it comes to versatility, style and manageability. No other style catches the eye quite like the short hair style and no other
style makes the wearer look as professional, chic and sexy as the short hair style.
Short hair styles worn by women are a fairly new style trend when compared with women's hair styles in general. In fact,
cropped styles only came to the forefront of fashion a little more than 50 years ago. Since that time, the short hair style
has given women the freedom to express themselves in numerous ways. From the funky and spiked to the soft and feminine, the
short hair style can be worn by any woman of any personality, style and age.
Short hair no matter what the age
It has long been a held belief that an older woman should wear a short hair style to make her appear younger. While there
is some truth in the belief that long hair tends to make wrinkles and flaws more noticeable, short hair styles and long hair
styles can both be worn by women of all ages if they choose the right style to compliment their particular face shape and
bone structure.
A good rule of thumb to follow when it comes to choosing a short hair style to suit your age is to pay more attention
to your overall appearance rather than focus too much on how old you are. For example: Trendy, spiked styles can emphasize
flaws and sagging skin, but I have seen women in their 70s with exceptional bone structure wear these short hair styles and
look amazing. On the other hand, I have also seen younger women try to wear these same short hair styles and not be able to
quite carry it off. So, if you want to wear a short hair style, pay close attention to your face shape, build and style of
dress before deciding how to cut your hair.
Short hair to flatter your face
I've heard it said many times by many people, "I always wanted to wear a short hair style, but I don't look right with
short hair" Ladies, this is nonsense. Granted, not every woman can wear every short hair style, but every woman can wear a
short hair style that is tailor-made to compliment their face shape and beautiful features.
There are five basic face shapes: oval, heart, round, square and triangular. All of these shapes can be beautiful, but
one is ideal: oval. No matter what shaped face you have, achieving the perfect look involves picking the right cut or short
hair style that will make your face appear more oval.
To do this, you and your stylists can try different variations of popular short hair styles to compliment your individual
features. For example: If you have a round face shape, you can still wear your favorite short hair style as long as you bring
some hair forward on your cheekbones and wear a little height in the bang to give your face the illusion that it is oval.
The bottom line is that the short hair style is not for just a few who have been blessed with perfectly proportioned
features. With the right short hair style, you too can sport trendy sexy cropped locks that will be guaranteed to turn a few
heads.
