From runways to movie screens; offices to schools, short hair is popping up as one of the most popular trends for fall. Perhaps most popular is the “bob” cut. The traditional form of this old style, with its long bangs and even length, is making quite the comeback this season.

Those wearing this style are channeling the 1920s and 1930s to create a chic new look. Other popular variations are the “blunt bob,” which features sharp angles, and the “layered bob” with its lively, wild look.

Some people will want to go even shorter this fall and opt for a “pixie cut,” also known as “the crop.” Rather than the sleek and straight version of this style we are used to seeing, the new trend is to show off your natural texture in a short style.

So, pixie’s with waves or curls are the way to go this season. Finally, there seems to be a trend towards wearing short hair in a more masculine style. This concept was developed on the runways and is likely to hit the streets this fall. The most common look involves using gels, wax, and other products to create ‘dos that resemble 1950s men’s hair. Whatever way you wear it, it seems going for a short cut is the trend to try this fall.

Short hair is one of the trendiest styles around. More and more women are cutting off their locks sporting short ‘dos. Some are even choosing to go extra-short. These women are showing off the “pixie cut,” a short hair trend that is on the rise. This look is achieved by cropping hair short around the ears and adding lots of choppy layers around the crown and neck.

The look also requires side-swept bangs that can be either long or short. Styling the cut can go one of two ways. Some women choose to go sleek and straight. They keep the cut flat and dress it up with shine serums to make it gleam. Others prefer a more natural look. They let their hair show texture with waves and curls. Sometimes this means using wax or gel to get the desired look. Either look is gorgeous when styled properly.© Lee Roth / RothStock / PR Photos

The pixie cut also looks great with subtle highlights. This can add dimension to the look and make the cut livelier. Pins, clips, and barrettes also dress up the pixie look and are a great choice for special occasions. Ultimately, the pixie cut is deceptively versatile and can be presented in a variety of chic and sexy ways.
