14 Short Haircuts to Save For Your Stylist
By Elizabeth Tosanwunmi · Published November 14, 2023

When it comes to trendy, fashionable hairstyles, short haircut styles will not be the rave. They are beautiful and offer comfort (a great advantage for people whose scalps are sensitive to hair braiding). Whether you’re aiming for a chic French bob or playful pixie cut, short haircuts are always in season. Other benefits you can get from short haircut styles include a standout look, less tangling of hair, improved scalp health, affordable (if not cheaper) maintenance, less prone to damage, and versatile styling options.

If you are considering going to the salon anytime soon for a short haircut, let today’s article be your inspiration as we present 20 different styles you can try.

1. French Bob

Teal blue is one color that complements black skin of different shades so if you want to get your haircut dyed, why not go for it?

3. PIXIE CUT

The shag haircut is a fusion of curls, layers, bangs, and choppy ends to give an effortless tousled look.

5. PINCURL SET

This vintage hairstyle needs no heat tools to come alive. It is created by wrapping the hair around the finger (or hair rollers, in this case), securing it against the scalp with clips or pins, and then taking them out after a while to create those soft waves.

6. LOW CUT
