‘A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life,’ said Coco Chanel once.
This year, refresh your winter look with an edgy and sophisticated short style.
1. Slicked back
This easy-to-achieve style can be accessorised to create a unique evening look. Straighten your hair using relaxer. Apply mousse to the dried hair, and wrap your hair to set the style. Finish off the look with a bit of hair serum for some sheen. To help the style last longer, wear a silk doek/scarf in the evenings.
2. Curly bob
Short curly hair creates a flirty and feminine aesthetic. Maintain the bounce and volume with a volumising or curl-enhancing mousse.
The trick with this style is to keep the curls hydrated. use a spray that keeps the curls locked and a curl mask or pudding to moisturise and add shine. To create bigger curls, use a curling wand for definition. Before applying heat, be sure you keep the scalp and temple protected with a heat-protecting spray.
3. Angular bob
if you’re craving an edgy style, the angular bob is definitely for you. keep a straightening iron handy for on-the-go styling.
Angular bob make sure your hair is conditioned and hydrated before creating this look. Always apply a hair oil with essential ingredients to keep the strands smooth and healthy. Consult a professional hairstylist for a cut best suited to your face shape.
4. Wet look
This slick style is this year’s runway favourite. sexy and bold, it definitely makes a statement.
Wet look creating the enviable ‘I just got out of the shower’ look doesn’t take much. After treating the hair with a repairing mask or conditioner, apply an oil-based spray to dry hair. Spritz your hair regularly so the ‘wet effect’ lasts longer.
5. Wavy pixie
Waves are all the rage right now — mould them into a short pixie cut for a memorable style.
To maintain the waves, use a product — like a serum — that’s humidity resistant as well as to keep the strands smooth and moisturised. if your waves lose life and start looking dull, condition with a curl reviving product.
