She looks stunning
This lady is naturally beautiful, but with her new haircut, she’s jaw-droppingly gorgeous. It highlights her bold features, including her beautiful blue eyes and contoured cheekbones. The new look is 100 percent classy and modern.
This woman started with thick, shiny waves of hair. But it wasn’t framing her face — and all that hair is heavy. Now, she has a sleek asymmetrical bob that’s super trendy.
This lady didn’t just cut her hair. She opted for an entirely new color and style, too. The new look is sleek and flattering, and it goes perfectly with her long earrings.
Her long brown hair was beautiful, but it wasn’t styled — it simply hung down to her waist. She got a short chop to her shoulders and had her color touched up.
This woman has natural, bold features. So, a bold haircut makes perfect sense for her. With her short hair and dark makeup, she cuts a striking figure…no pun intended.
Long hair without any style is popular these days, but that’s not the only option. This girl got a short, fun chop that’s sassy and fun. It’s an eye-catching look.
This woman’s hair was long and straight. She made the choice to go with some effortless short curls that framed her face. It’s an excellent look for her.
This is one dramatic change. When she went to the stylist, she told them to do whatever they wanted — and they delivered. Now, her hairstyle is short and sassy.
At first glance, you might not even think this is the same woman. The dramatic change from long and loose to a styled bob completely changed her looks. But it suits her wonderfully.
This stylish lady is proving that fun hairstyles aren’t just for the younger generation. She embraced her silver hair and got a short style teased up into a pompadour. Now, she’s the coolest grandma on the block.
This lady had beautiful long hair. But without any styling, it looked a little retro. With a color touch-up and a cut, her long bob looks playful and gorgeous.
Her long, straight hair wasn’t doing anything for her appearance. But her new look is full of bounce and movement that accentuates her best facial features, like her cheekbones.
Some people say you can’t get a short haircut if you have curly hair but they couldn’t be more wrong. This lady is a perfect example of how pixies can look great with curly hair, too.
Before, her hair was looking a bit washed up. The old color and different lengths weren’t doing her any justice. Her pixie cut brings out her natural curls, which looks amazing.
This woman went for a complete change, and it’s enough to make your jaw drop. Her flowing, brown hair is gone, replaced by a sleek blonde pixie with long bangs.
One of the greatest things about short haircuts is the way they bring out people’s best features. We weren’t able to see her face before, but the new cut frames it beautifully.
This lady already had a great “look,” but it was hiding somewhat behind all that hair. With her pixie cut, she looks sharp and stylish. And just look at her smile.
Her “before” style was cute, but it was a little boxy and it didn’t have a lot of movement. The shorter haircut is a great solution for those issues. She looks amazing.
It’s amazing how much a haircut can change a person’s appearance. This haircut seems to have been designed for her. It brings out all her beautiful features and completely revitalizes her face.
Styling your hair as you get older can be different, especially as you lose volume and flexibility. This gorgeous lady isn’t letting age stop her from looking her best.
This woman’s gorgeous blonde curls are reminiscent of the beach styles of the 1970s. But she also proves that short hair can look great with curls. What a fun look.
Short haircuts can be a stylish way to restore hair after damage from color and treatment. She lost the pink and went with her natural color and a cropped style close around her face.
This lady wasn’t afraid to make a super bold choice — she had all her hair chopped off. She left the salon with her hair on her arm and a short, swept style.
She looked pretty cute before her new cut, but afterward, she looks stunning. The shorter style has a lot of movement, and those bangs falling over one eye are perfect for her.
This change from long to short and messy is ideal for her. It matures her look yet remains fun and playful. I love the side sweep and the way her hair falls over her face.
Her long, dark mane of hair was beautiful, but her new cut is mature and eye-catching. Is anyone else getting some Parisian vibes? No matter what, she looks gorgeous.
This woman is showing off a retro hairstyle that hearkens back a century. Hairstyles go through cycles just like anything else. So, it’s not surprising we’re seeing these styles again.
This cut is a great choice for her since it draws attention to her eyes and smile, which are undoubtedly her best features. Plus, it’s fun but also professional.
Her long, curly hair was beautiful, but it was probably also uncomfortably thick and difficult to style. Her short cut is fun, youthful, and still curly, but a lot lighter.
She has beautiful hair, but sometimes, less is more. Her short cut looks attractive and youthful, with a lot of movement around her face through the sweep of her bangs.
This woman is a professional musician, so her haircut must look super professional, too. The good news is that pixie cuts can look mature and work-appropriate.
Pixie cut, hoop earrings, jean jacket — ready to go
You wouldn’t think short hair could be so versatile, but it can. It can be dressed up or down, made youthful or mature, and styled for casual or formal occasions.
