The shorthair formula
Should I cut my hair? Am I really ready for a short hairstyle? Giles Robinson, Senior Stylist at John Frieda, now provides the answer with a simple formula he has developed following studies of more than 1,000 women’s hairstyles or faces. For the small calculation game you only need a small ruler and a pen. Hold the latter horizontally under your chin and the ruler vertically under your ear. Now it is time to measure the distance from the intersection of the ruler and the pen to the ear. If the distance is less than 5.7 cm, you are predestined for a short hairstyle. If it is more than 5 inches (5.7 cm), you should better think it over again.
To make the decision easier, you can also include the following criteria in the considerations:
face shape
Round faces can be visually stretched perfectly with longer hair. If you still want to leave hair, a cut with long strands in front is ideal for you. The pages should stay narrow as this stretches. With a triangular face shape, it is important to prefer a hairstyle with a lot of volume in the neck and to avoid a lot of hair on the head. A square face has soft and not too distinctive cuts. Structured hairstyles make the features appear very hard on this face shape. Free selections have oval faces, because they are practically all hairstyle models.
skull shape
When choosing a short hairstyle, the shape of the skull should also be considered, especially if the hair is cut very short (whereby everyone has to answer the question of how brave he wants to be).
Thin, thick or curly hair
Short hairstyles are no problem for thin hair when the hairdresser works on the cut to a higher density and works with volume foam at home. For thin hair, a short neckline, undercut-style side panels and longer, graduated top hair look very stylish.
For thick hair, the hair is thinned and not cut too short to avoid the “helmet effect”. A distinctive pony and different lengths on the top of the head can look very stylish.
Wavy and curly hair looks very sophisticated with a short wet look.
