Short hair has never been so popular! And in a world where personal expression is increasingly valued, finding the perfect haircut can be transformative. Whether for those who want to revamp their look or for those looking for a radical change, the renowned celebrity hairdresser and Keune Master Talent, Wanderley Nunes, presents several options for necessary inspiration, showing that not all short cuts are the same.
Medium Bob with Spike
This type of haircut has a pout that is slightly accentuated and similar to the medium bob. The versatility is that you can use it in two ways: separated in half or thrown to the side. The secret is in the length of the strands, which must be at the height of the ‘soap dish’.
“It is recommended for hair with a smooth texture and a round or wide face shape as the ends of the hair cover the sides of the face, slimming it. Whoever adopts this cut will certainly give their look more seriousness, as well as sophistication and personality”, comments Wanderley.
Medium Bob Reto
“This hair follows the same style as the previous reference, but it is a little shorter and straighter”, explains the hairdresser. It is ideal for those who want to change their appearance without taking away too much length. According to Wanderley, the tip when cutting is to create angles and respect them. “The result is a classic cut with grandeur and movement”, he concludes.
Short with gradient at the ends
Another timeless, chic option that is high in trend searches for 2024.
With a straight base and slight gradient on the front side ends, this type of cut enhances wavy, curly and frizzy hair. Keune Master Talent highlights that hair with a straight structure can achieve the same effect by finishing with a curling iron.
Pointed Chanel with elongated bangs
Modern and democratic, the Chanel cut is perfect for those who have a lot of density and volume in their hair. “And when we do a gradient on the bangs, there is yet another effect, especially suitable for those with a triangular face shape, as it is possible to cover the temples while leaving the chin visible”, says Wanderley. “Furthermore, this cut is practical and makes brushing your hair on a daily basis much easier,” she adds.
Curto Butterfly Cut
“This is the hair for a casual woman”, says Wanderley Nunes, who explored in this cut references to what has recently become known as the ‘butterfly cut’ – in which the ends stick out.
The lightness on the top of the head is achieved through the profiling technique, forming a frame for the face. According to the hairstylist, it goes very well with round, wide and triangular faces because it concentrates volume and texture at the top, decreasing at the temples.
Short Pixie
Minimalist and modern, the “Pixie” cut has a finish that can be done with lower parts near the ears and the back of the neck, highlighting the frayed trim at the top.
This haircut helps to shape the shape of the head and highlights the face, making it suitable for triangular face shapes. Celebrity hairdressers recommend it for people with fine, straight hair, as it adds volume to the hair. “Those looking for this style of cut have attitude and like practicality, in addition to having a profile that accepts changes and is not afraid to take risks”, concludes Wanderley Nunes.
