Alternative Short Hairstyles
Short alternative hairstyles are unusual, daring, bright, fun, avante-garde, geometric and exaggerated hairstyles that are above the jaw line in length.
Anything goes really with alternative hairstyles but that doesn't mean you should attempt to create a short alternative 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. A short alternative hairstyle will generally be a little easier to manage and style... but remeber: if you're going from long to short it's going to be a more drastic change.

High and wispy was the main aim for CJ Baran's hairstyle at the 10th annual T.J. Martell Foundation Family Day. His thick hair was jagged cut or razored to achieve a weightless and wispy finish to the ends. This allowed the layers at the crown to be spiked up and out while the top was styled flat to contour the head.
