Turn Up Your Volume This Winter!
Our Picks for the Best Short, Big-Volume Hairstyles
Did you know? Shorter, piecy hairstyles can amplify the appearance of fuller hair. We talked to top stylists and scanned the internet to find the latest and greatest of this seasons shorter styles. Take a look at our favorite picks!
The Pixy
This style is an ever-fresh classic, designed to give the look of volume, and always flattering for all face shapes.
Best with naturally straighter hair, this cut features layers that can be easily lifted to add instant fullness. The use of bangs is playful and feminine, and the short length keeps you cool in the hot summer months.
To style, we recommend a volumizing mousse and touchable hold hairspray.
Avoid sticky or stiff gels and sprays, as well as heavier weight pomades that can weigh hair down.
Short Bob
This style rocks longer layer lengths, and is often best with a side part. As our celebs demonstrate, angled bangs can be used to frame the face, and shorter layers in the back can give natural volume at the crown a boost. This style is best when tailored to the angles of your face, accentuating your unique beauty.
To style, we recommend a lightweight volumizing mousse for the crown of the head and a lightweight shine serum for the ends, applied as a last step in the styling process. To get the most of this style, light heat is ideal to promote smoothness. Whenever using heat to style the hair, apply a leave-in thermal protectant.
Accessories
Whether long or short, sometimes, its not the cut, rather the decoration that can make a summer look sizzle! Headbands are an easy and effective way to dress up any cut, and an excellent addition to short, medium and longer styles - Enjoy!
