“Wavy Hairstyles”
Description
Alternative short wavy hairstyles are ones that stand apart from fashionable, conventional and classic hairstyles. They are best described as unusual, daring, bright, fun, avante-garde, and exaggerated- with elements of punk.
Method
Often anything goes with an alternative hairstyle: the crazier the better. Short wavy looks vary from top-heavy wedge shapes to unusual barrel twists. These styles are usually in very bright, dark or light colors for extra intensity.
Benefit
If you want to feel free of fashion, then go for it. Or, if you want to bolster your marketing campaign, then an alternative hairstyle may be a good choice. But beware because most short styles will take some time to grow out, and wild colors may damage your hair (particulary when stripped out or re-colored).
