Alternative Short Hairstyles
Alternative short hairstyles are unusual, daring, bright, fun, avante-garde, geometric and exaggerated hairstyles that are above the jawline in length.
Anything goes really with alternative short hairstyles but that doesn't mean you should attempt to create a alternative short hairstyle yourself. Even if you're going for something a little crazy and out there, it's a good idea to consult your hairstylist first.
Alternative hairstyles are a great way to feel a little more daring and creative. An alternative short hairstyle will generally be a little easier to manage and style... but remember: if you're going from long to short it's going to be a more drastic change.

This two in one hairstyle is a result of the back and sides being cut in very short up to the spiked crown. The top area has then been left longer for a smoother look. The height in the crown helps add length making this a good hairstyle for people with rounder face shapes that really want bangs.
