Short Hair Cut for WomanPosted by: pulsera
on Mon, Mar 13th, 2006
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 You can take an out-of-date look and completely change your appearance by cutting your hair short.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 cut27 Response to 'Short Hair Cut for Woman'

all these silly comments about short hair being less feminine, or sexy, and about how only older woman cut their hair short, is really kind of ridiculous. I'm sixteen,i have a very short bob, so short you can see the nape of my neck, with longer bangs in the front. And its true, that a few redneck jocks with a c- point average find me intimidatiing, but the guys who truly matter, and the type of guys that i want to attract all find me beatiful and unique, i used to have hair down past my shoulders, and cutting it off was the best thing i ever did to my appearence. i have nothing against long hair, but i'll be the first to admit cutting my hair boosted my self esteme, and made me much less shy!

There seems to be a lot of opinions on here,& to each is own,but I cut my hair short after wanting it long forever,I found its got more volume & seems a lot prettier to me. Some of you are taking a simple hair cuts to the extreme.

I think July 4th by Jim is screwed up in the head. I am a hairdresser. My husband always hated short hair, he always told me that he'd divorce me if I cut my hair short. So one day I decided to cut my hair very short, and he loves it! He told me to never grow it out again. And every women I've ever met with short hair is very confidant, most of the women on Forbe's 100 most powerful women have short hair. Also, I don't have emotional issues, and neither to my female friends who have short hair. Infact, many older women who have long hair are (socially) looked at as crazy. As a women gets older the hair gets thinner and more limp. almost like they don't care about their hair. So when an older women has long hair it lookes like ****. I think you may have some issues. Maybe your scared that your wife will look hot and someone may steal her from you. I say, let her cut it off and feel good about herself. Theres nothing more liberating than cutting it all off. I'd tell your wife to shave her head!

I'm not into teenage boys and I don't want my woman looking like one. I also don't want to be with a woman that could take the lead in Peter Pan.
Women who butcher their hair by cutting it short are broken inside in some form or the other. I'm 43 years old and have known more than a few women over the years. Everyone of them that did that to their hair turned out to be screwed in the head. I find that they are best avoided if you're not willing to put up with their emotional damage. I'm sure there are exceptions, but I'd bet real money that there are very few of them.

I don't agree that men find short haired women unattractive. Many good men have no problem with that. My husband likes my short hair better than the way I had it when it was long. The problem is probably that a woman gets a BAD cut and then thinks they can't wear their hair short. Unfortunately many professinal stylists do bad cuts. I've had bad cuts. I've gone years cutting my own hair because I could do it pretty well and it was free. But a really good professional cut makes all the difference in whether you like short hair or not. Even with a bad haircut though, I suspect the person who didn't date for months had that problem due to self confidence not a haircut. If you think you look terrible you act differently and people react accordingly. Even a bad cut can be rescued or styled differently, or grow out enough to be fixed within a few short weeks. Obviously some women identify w/their long hair and do not feel right without it. I feel bad for them because life's about more than hair.

I have a short hair cut and love it. I didn't care if my husband like it or not, I just care about me and at the end, he, my friends & co-workers loved it too!

Short hair cuts are very sexy, but also depends on the womans face and hair texture

I used to look really hot! And then I let a couple really jealous friends talk me into a short haircut. What a mistake. I look like a guy. No more! I am going to grow it out to a woman;s length again. No more trying to appease jealous false friends. I haven't dated in three months. No man finds me attractive. The only attention I am getting is from ****s. They like really short hair. Men do not. Don't let the trolls talk you into a short haircut, unless you want to be ignored by guys and have angry ****s hit on you.

I love a really short haircut on a woman. I hate when women hide behing a big head of hair, and believe that a confident attractive woman looks really sexy (especially with a bare nape!)

I have been noticing that I am not getting as much professional recognition now that I have allowed my hair to grow long. As a short haired woman, I looked stylish and professional and was taken seriously. However, I remember noticing that all the wives of the men who worked with me had long hair. It almost seems as though men would rather date/marry longer haired women, and that short haired women are viewed as less sexy and therefore less threatening on the job.
Nevertheless, I have decided to get my hair cut short again. I have shoulder length stylishly cut hait, but am constantly being accosted by men wanting dates and have even been told that I look like "a little girl." One sick **** even offered to be my "daddy." I never received such treatment with short hair. As an ambitious woman wanting to be taken seriously in the professional world, I will cut id short. Most successful women who are taken seriously have short hair. I also think sophisticated men prefer women with shorter, more styled hair. There are some women like Ann Coulter who look stunning and can get away with long hair. But really, Ann Coulter capitalized on her image of being a sex kitten. In her photos, she wears daisy dukes, capitalizing on teh fact that she is a leggy, sexy blonde. Despite her success by selling best selling books and being a talking head, she has never been able to hold down a job and is widely mocked for being an idiot. Yes, she exudes gravitas, but at the end of the day, she is dismissed as a joke. Even Sarah Palin. She looked very sexy and charismatic. She may really have been incompetent, but most people were not able to see past the fact that she was a beauty queen wannabe. People were looking for ways to discredit it. Sex is so powerful in our society. In the professional world, that aspect must be downplayed. Short hair cut communimcates that you are there to do business and have a no-nonsense style. Having said that, Princess Di was considered to be among teh most beautiful women of her time....Yet, many still say she was androgynous and never fully quite feminine. You can't please them all, but I will be getting my hair cut short. Sadly, the rednecks and stip club-goers will still accuse you of being manly and unsexy. However, just consider the source.

Dear Debra!
Wake up and smell the cat box honey! LOL

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!
