CLASSIC BOB

This timeless style can be adapted to suit people of all ages, from four-year-olds to 94-year-olds, and everyone in between. The key to achieving a flattering bob lies in choosing the right shape and styling it accordingly.

For a more unique look, you might consider the ‘French bob,’ popularized by Taylor LaShae, featuring a full fringe and blunt, rounded edges that sit at the ears.

CURTAIN BANGS

Curtain bangs, a modern take on the iconic 60s and 70s style popularized by Farrah Fawcett, Goldie Hawn, and Brigitte Bardot, have recently taken mainstream culture by storm, closely followed by the trending wolf cut. Also known as a ‘gringe’ (grown-out fringe), this hairstyle features a fringe that parts like a curtain being drawn open, adding a touch of chic charm.

PIXIE

A pixie haircut is a short women’s haircut typically ranging from half an inch to 3 inches in length. This style can be either one-length or cut shorter on the back and sides while leaving the top slightly longer.

The rise of the pixie haircut in popularity can be traced back to the 1950s, following the debut of the beloved film “Roman Holiday,” which showcased Audrey Hepburn’s iconic short hair. In the 1960s, the trend was further popularized by actress Mia Farrow and supermodel Twiggy, who also embraced the chic and daring pixie cut.
