It's
not as easy as it seems, choosing short hair cuts. For women
of all ages, this decision can have big repercussions. A lot
depends on how we present ourselves physically, like it or
not. In situations ranging from job interviews to attracting
a mate, your face and hair matter. Simple as that.
First impressions will probably always be high on the list when it
comes to how others see us.
A
short hair cut says a lot (rightly or wrongly) about who you
are. For women in work settings, certain short cuts can
project someone who is serious and goal-oriented in the job.
In a social setting, a minor tweak to that same short hairstyle can
soften your look and make your appearance more inviting.
How
To Choose
All
of this begs the question: how does a woman go about choosing
the best short hair cut? While a certain amount of the
decision depends on completely subjective things, like your own haircut
preferences, you can go about it in a more scientific way, if you
will. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery,
and the following tips use this aphorism as a foundation for making
your style choice.
Celebrities
Perhaps
the easiest way to get short hair cut ideas is to see what celebrities
who look like you are doing. Now, you don't have to be a
Jessica Alba look-alike to pull this off, so don't worry.
What you're looking for is famous people who have the same general face
shape and facial features that you have.
You're
looking to match hairstyles as closely as you can, and compile a list
of names as you go. Take note of the shorter hair cuts that
each wears now (or has worn in the past) that you think look
particularly good on that celebrity. Once you have this
narrowed down to the best of the best, you'll be all set to make a
final decision.
Non-Celebrities
Too!
This
doesn't have to involve famous people only. Apply the same
short hair cut analysis to your friends, co-workers, and especially
family members. At the next family event, check out cousins,
Aunts, and male members' wives and girlfriends for ideas. The
advantage of looking at other women in your family is that you're more
likely to find a few who share your basic facial features. If
a short cut looks great on one of them, you're just about assured of
similar results!
If
you work in a large office setting, that's a great place to get short
hairstyle ideas. Make it a habit to browse in the company
lunchroom or the next big meeting.
If
you work where you deal with a lot of customers or you're a student on
a big campus, do the same. By keeping your radar turned on
all the time, you'll probably discover that there are
actually several short hair cuts for women that would look great on you.
