Whether it’s for ease of styling or because you want to update your look, going short is not a haircut choice that should be taken lightly, so we’ve put together some sound advice to help you decide if cutting your hair short is the right decision for you.
Short Haircut Advice
Ensure that you are ready for the change. Chopping off your locks, especially if you’re used to much longer hair strands can be quite a shock and no-one likes those “what have I done?†moments. Before committing to getting your hair cut, make sure you are happy, excited and ready for you new shorter ‘do. If you’re having doubts, changing your look to suit someone else, or because your fave celebrity went short then re-think the idea before making a decision you may later regret.
If you have doubts about going short then commit to going short in stages instead. Even if it takes six months to get to a fabulous pixie haircut, the shoulder length, chin length, ear length and whatever length you try in between will get you adjusted to a shorter style and provide you with plenty of styling versatility. Who knows? You might even love a medium length look better and decide to stop there, ending up with the perfect haircut for you.
