1: Classic Textured Pixie
This timeless short cut features closely cropped sides and a back with slightly longer, textured pieces on top.
The contrasting lengths create dimension while maintaining a polished, feminine silhouette.
Ask your stylist for short sides and back with 1-2 inches of length on top to create texture. This versatile style works particularly well with fine to medium hair textures.
Style by working a small amount of texturizing paste through the top pieces for piece-y definition that lasts all day.
2: Modern Buzz Cut
This bold, ultra-short style creates a striking silhouette highlighting your facial features and bone structure.
The uniform length throughout offers unbeatable convenience with a fashion-forward edge.
Request a buzz cut with guards between #2 and #4, depending on your desired length.
This confident style particularly flatters those with well-proportioned facial features and oval face shapes.
Maintain with monthly trims to keep the precise length that makes this style look intentional rather than grown-out.
3: Asymmetrical Crop
This contemporary style features one side slightly longer than the other for an artistic, architectural effect.
The intentional asymmetry creates visual interest while maintaining the practicality of short length.
Ask for a cropped cut with a noticeable length difference between sides.
This creative approach works across most hair textures, adding personality to the classic crop.
Style by directing the more extended side toward your face or swept back depending on your preference and face shape.
4: Textured Crop with Long Fringe
This versatile style pairs closely cropped sides and back with a significantly longer fringe. The contrast creates a fashionable silhouette with the styling versatility of bangs.
Request short, tapered sides with a fringe that can be styled forward, swept to the side, or pushed back.
This adaptable style offers multiple looks from the same cut.
Use texturizing spray on the fringe to create separation and movement while keeping the sides neat and clean.
5: Curly Crop
This texture-celebrating style features a short cut specifically designed to enhance your natural curl pattern.
