Short Hair Ideas
Let's face it - no one wants to
keep the same hairstyle forever. But changing too often also
has its pitfalls. Namely, you run the risk of running through
all of your short hair ideas and being left scrambling to come up with
a new cut.
Fortunately, you don't have to go it alone. You have several
allies in the search for your next great short hairstyle
idea. These include: beauty and celebrity magazines, your
hair stylist, and trusted friends.
Before you get ideas from any of those sources, however, it's important
to rule out the bad choices based on your face shape. You
see, when it comes to short hairstyles, how your face is shaped really
has a lot to do with whether or not a particular style is a good
match. You might like how a pixie cut looks on a model in a
magazine, for example, but if her face has a completely different shape
than yours, that same cut may well look silly on you. So,
it's good to keep this in mind as you begin searching for ideas.
Your
Hair Stylist
Your
first and best source for hair style ideas is going to be your regular
stylist. Stylists are trained professionals.
Styling hair is how they put food on the table. They're not
likely to tell you what you want to hear just because you want to hear
it. They don't want to lose your business, and if they
recommend a haircut that ends up looking ridiculous on you, they know
they run that risk.
If your stylist has several years of experience, he/she will know
intuitively which of the short hair styles is a good idea to try in
your case. That's why we recommend that you enlist his/her
advice right at the beginning of your search.
Beauty
& Celebrity Magazines
Magazines
are another excellent source for short hair ideas. Models and
celebrities pay top dollar for the best haircuts on the planet, after
all. And the magazines' owners have a vested interest in
presenting a wide array of beautiful styles to entice readers to
subscribe.
It's a good idea to sit down and pour through several of the top
magazines. Cut out pictures of the short hairstyles that most
appeal to you. Keep a portfolio of them to take with you next
time you go to the salon. That way, you and your stylist will
have plenty of options right there to look at and discuss.
Trusted
Friends
Finally,
you can get some great ideas from your most trusted friends.
Like your stylist, they will have your best interests at
heart. You want to ask friends who will tell you the honest
truth instead of what you want to hear. At the end of the
day, you're stuck with the short hair style you choose - at least until
it grows out. You want short hair ideas that will work for
you, even if that means discarding the ones that you like the most.
