I have never been one that could wear my hair long. I simply don’t have the face for it! Fortunately, short to medium hair styles are classics and in vogue! Following are some of my favorite.
The Stylish Pixie
In years past pixies were famously sported on Twiggy, Goldie Hawn and Liza Minelli. Today they have a whole new look.
Ginnifer Goodwin, Halley Berry and Sharon Stone have the ultimate pixie face! Ideal cheekbones and beautiful complexions. In my opinion, these short hair styles require makeup to add a feminine touch to a boyish cut and they do it well!
Wouldn’t it be great to be able to get up and go with just running your fingers through your hair with a little gel? That would only happen in my dreams!
Chin Length Sexy Bobs
Chin length hair styles are so flattering. I love the look on Ellen Barkin. Her cut is edgy, fun and so chic.
The wind-blown look of this short bob is another favorite. I like that it is a little messy and not so perfectly coiffed.
The Lisa Rinna Layered Shag
Lisa Rinna is known for her layered shag. She wears it well. Her caramel highlights give it depth and shine. She also styles it different ways to give it a fresh look. Sometimes she pulls her hair behind her ears, other times she uses gel for a wispy look. She also softens the look by curling the ends under. It’s a fun and surprisingly versatile style.
Medium Length Chic Hair Styles
I not only love the medium length of this hair style but also the espresso color! It is full of body and so soft and feminine looking. The length is long enough so that you can change it up a bit for a different look. And how about those eyes! Gorgeous!
Lastly, if you need some hair inspiration, I have the blog for you! Visit The Small Things Blog and meet Kate. She is famous for her hair tutorials that she started posting in 2011.
Below is a picture of Kate with a medium length bob. This cut offers so much flexibility. Her tutorials will inspire you on the different ways you can style this versatile length.
What’s your preference? Pixie, short or medium hairstyles?
