3 Super Chic Short Hairstyles to Consider for Your Next Cut

Men may not always “get it,” but in our opinion, there’s something to be said about a woman who can pull off short hairstyles. She’s typically sexy, edgy and most importantly, confident and comfortable in her own skin. C’mon, what’s not to love about that? We asked two seasoned stylists to dish the deets on some shorter ‘dos that’ll make you want to chop off your hair like, right now!

#1 – An Asymmetrical Cut

If you’re feeling daring and desperate for a change, Avi Elkayam, creator of Runway Tools and stylist at Patrice Vinci Salon in Boston, MA, suggests going for an asymmetrical cut a la Miley Cyrus. Short on the sides and longer on top, this style even looks rad with just one shaved side, he notes. “It gives you tons of flexibility as well; you can wear it blown out on top, with tons of volume or swept over to the side or forward for a sleek, sophisticated look.” Try dying your locks a bold hue, like vibrant red or bleach blonde, to really make it pop.
Works best on: Women with strong features, such as high cheekbones, full lips or full eyebrows. If you think your hair might be too thin, ask your stylist to add a few extensions on top to help create fullness, he suggests. You can also buy a couple of clip-ins and play around with bright color sans the commitment of having to dye your own strands.
Maintenance: The key to keeping up this style is regular haircuts, at least every four weeks, says Avi.
