This spring, shorter textured cuts are in - still balanced, blended and feminine, but with a little rock star thrown in. Hair that is too long, flat, and straight is definitely out. Think choppier layers, still with some length, not too clean, but not too messy either. This slightly shaggier look, when done right, still reads as completely feminine and playful. (Kristen Stewart)
Even classic shorter cuts like the bob and pixie can still be in and edgy - with a couple of twists.
Consider updating your bob by adding a razored or more textured finish. For a shorter bob, the length should land at the jaw line (Katie Holmes). A longer bob should skim the shoulder (Heidi Kluhm). To create some drama, add bangs to either length bob - this will pop the eyes and cheekbones and create a really sexy, flirty look (Rhianna).
To transform the short pixie, add a longer asymmetrical bang. This softer, but still dramatic, look will also bring out the eyes and cheek bones (Keira Knightley).
Determining which shorter, edgier shape is right for you, ultimately depends on your face shape, neck length and overall head shape. And make sure your stylist knows the difference between drama (Victoria Beckham) and disaster (Kate Gosselin: pre-extensions)!
