Are you one of those who consider women wearing tousled short haircuts (think Meg Ryan and Sharon Stone) to be confident and outgoing? A short hair cut will tell the world you mean business. It is assertive, confident, glamorous, and most of all stylish. Find out how to make a short hair cut work best for you.
Is a short hair cut for you? If you thrive on change you probably have a short hair cut already, if not — remember this — your hair will always grow back anyway!
Convenient and ease of care are the two major benefit of short hair styles. For people in the business world, they want something that looks professional but also easy to manage. Although it will vary from one style to another, in most cases, with short hair you can simply wash; add a little gel, towel dry or blow dry for a minute, and head out the door. Shampooing and conditioning takes just minutes and styling is a breeze. Again, the right haircut is crucial in that it will fall into place automatically without any fuss.
Short haircut styles also can be stylish, chic and sexy. You could choose a cut that allows you to wear it trendy when out dancing at night and then polished for daytime wear. Face it; short hair is sensual and sexy! You can take an out-of-date look and completely change your appearance by cutting your hair short. In fact, most women that go from long to short hair are amazed at how much younger, and thinner they look. Short hair not only makes you look better but feel better. You will have more energy and vibrancy, sort of stepping light.
If you are tired of the same old thing with your hair day after day, and ready to make a chance, then this might be the right time to have your hair shortened. Just reminder yourself that if for some reason you are not happy with the cut, your hair will grow back but chance are, you will be more than thrilled with the result!
Just remember that wearing a short hairstyle does not mean looking like a boy, which is a huge concern for many women. Again, remember the following things to make your short hair look chic and stylish, not boyish:
Perm your hair to add volume, height, and curl Choose a new angle to create a trendy look Try different things with your haircut. For example, you might wear it spiked, slicked back with a strand to the side, or simply tousled. Have layers added to your hair Use hair jewelry or pins to pin it or pull it back Consider having your hair softened with a razor edge cut|

Are these crazy comments from men about their wives for real? I don't think so.

I have short hair. I look very much like a woman. No man has every complained about my short locks. It's the entire package mind you and if you have a pretty face, good bone structure and nice body, you can most certainly pull it off.

To Debra: I think women can have short hair and embrace their femininity. Feminine and short hair are not mutually exclusive. It's not always about laziness, conformity or being practical. Sometimes it's just about doing what you like, what makes you feel comfortable and what makes you look good. I have short hair and I probably put more effort in to it more than when it was long, I am not lazy, I am 23 and I think I am a very attractive woman, who is neither corporate or a conformist. I had the inverted bob back 1997 when I was in 7th grade before Rhianna or Sienna Miller.
The bob is short hair cut that was fashionable for a man in the 1700's. Sure it's short but I don't think it looks very masculine on man. Give me a man with long locks anyday. There are also plenty of women like me who have let their hair grow long and no matter how it's styled or cut it becomes lifeless and a plain hot mess. I think long hair doesn't have to be boring, or a sign of being stuck in the 1950's but most often times it is and that if any is really the conformist hair style.

Peter, it has actually been proven that the length of a person's hair is directly related to how they feel about themselves. Also, having long hair can be a sign of insecurity, if the person refuses to get it cut.
Kaybaybay, I disagree, I think men with hair below the waist are extremely attractive, so long as they don't wear it back all of the time. Such a pretty waste. I used to have my hair at such a length, but the upkeep proved to be too tiresome and I ended up having a drastically short cut. Today, I'm going to get my hair cut short as can be seen fashionable on me, not quite sure what I can do. My hair is far too wavy to leave down the majority of the time, as well as being too thick for anything short of three hair ties to hold it in place. Hopefully, it'll be short and thin enough when they're done that I can straighten my hair easily every morning before school, like I had before.

I have long hair, im 27 - I happen to think that women should have long hair and men short, unless it looks wrong on you - as for the im 30 so ive got to cut my hair off- no way!! I think women who cut their hair short are either lazy, conformist, over 30, look like men. Of course there will be those who cut thier hair coz its practicle - this I understand - but for me I happen to think that a women should look like a women and embrace her femininity and besides whats wrong with embracing your femininity? of and I do lead a busy life so im not lazy!

I'm 68 and I think long hair makes older women look older. It seems to pull their face down. I also don't think long hair is very attractive on anybody. I have a 19 year old grandaughter who wears her hair down to her shoulder blades and I think she looks awful, mainly because she doesn't do anything with it but let it hang or pull it back into a pony tail.

Jesus chist mr. Riley. Take a chill pill. Below the waist hair isn't very pretty on anyone over 7. Besides, your wife should be able to be independent and choose what haircut she wants for herself. I mean, she is 55.

I think you are dumb by measuring women self-assurance by the size of their hair..

I've been wearing my hair short since the summer and I love it. I started with a bob and then gradually began chopping more off... Now I have a look similar to Rihanna's, asymmetrical. Its convenient and easy to handle but sometimes I miss my hair. I think that age doesn't matter as long as it looks good- I'm just 18!

My wife is 55, and NO WAY is she cutting her hair above waist. Meg and Sharon's hair look awful short. Short hair should be worn only by women under 30.

i want see new haircut style. i'm 23 and have black hair

My wife had her long hair cut short about three weeks ago to a chin length bob,then we saw a picture
of a shorter hairstyle where the sides covered the top half of the and and the back was cut about a half inch below the ears,so we chose that style and we both love it and the back of her neck is shaved smooth.She plans on keeping this hairstyle and having it cut every six weeks at Cost Cutters,They did a really great job and the compliments having really been coming,22 all ready and the price isn't all that bad $14.93 after tax and a job well done.Need less to say my wife is going to keep her hair short and keep this hairstyle,I loved long hair but after she had it done in this new short style I love her hair short like she does,less time to take car of it less shampoo,a very easy style to keep up,just some mousse and hair spray and comb it and she's ready to go for the day not to mention a lot less time getting it to dry after shampooing compared to when she had it long down to her bra strap.The braid was close to 11" long.
