Short Hair Style
Hair Style Ideas for Short Hair by Melissa Langley
Salon Monaco, a hair salon in South Tampa knows that short hairstyles is the trend for 2010. A short hair style that suits you and your lifestyle can dramatically change the way you feel and look-it can boost your confidence, make you look younger, and reduce the amount of time and money you spend on hair treatments.
A good short haircut must have the right proportions and the basic elements of balance, line and movement. The cut should be manageable and the hair should look great in its natural form prior to styling. Selecting a short hair cut style means choosing from curly styles, layered hair cut, shag, bobs, and bangs, among many options. You can also add in a full color or highlights or lowlights for texture.
Facial structure is the first determinant when choosing a short hair style. The shape of your face and head has a major role to play in the type of hair style you can wear best.
A narrow forehead, a small pointy chin, and wide cheeks is apt for a haircut that narrows at the cheekbones and wider at the forehead. Add a little more fullness at the crown if required. If you choose to color your hair, lighter tones should be on the upper part while the darker color should be at the tip. A wide, short forehead, and a small pointy chin demands for a haircut that like layered bob with extra volume and outward flicks at chin level. Asymmetric cuts are also flattering heart-shaped faces. When styling your hair, choose products that are reliable and tested such as TIGI’s Bedhead and the Paul Mitchell styling line.
A long face with high forehead and long jaw and chin demands for a haircut that is at the chin or shoulder-length cuts with a fringe that can hide the long forehead. And if you have a face with a wide, short forehead, full jaw and chin, then your best option is a cut with some height at the crown area and little fullness above the ears to slim down the round face. Soft cuts with layers coming forward onto the face look stylish and are ideal Hair Styles for round faces. Soft curls will also flatter the frame of a round face. For straight hair, asymmetric cuts can also be an option.
Square edges should be softened by breaking the symmetry of a square-shaped face. A haircut with graduated layers with some volume at crown and soft curls look stylish on this type of face shape. Color for graduated layers usually requires highlights or lowlights for texture and depth. Again, if you choose to color your hair, make sure you get a conditioning hair treatment that won’t affect your hair. Also, it is always good to invest on color care shampoos and conditioners for colored hair so you won’t need so much color correction sessions. TIGI and Paul Mitchell have products that are safe and effective.
Another important thing to consider with a short hair cut is the maintenance. Depending on your cut and hair type, short hair needs to be trimmed even if you’re trying to grow it. Your hair grows at different rates and it will look uneven after a month, so it still needs a regular trim to keep it looking its best. True, short hairstyles require less time for shampooing and styling, but it terms of regular upkeep, short cuts tend to need more visits to the salon.
Now that you’ve narrowed down your choices, why not set that appointment with Salon Monaco. They offer a full line of salon services including facials, manicure, pedicure, waxing, hair extension treatments, and make-up.
