Short hairstyles are in vogue!
As feminine as they are feminist, they come in endless variations, depending on your desires and the nature of your hair.
Are you also feeling the call of the scissors and a fierce desire to really change your look to be right on trend this year?
Proof that short hairstyles are sexy? Eve Gilles, our new Miss France 2024, was crowned while sporting a perfect short haircut that highlights her face and her beautiful shiny brown hair.
A quick overview of the hairstyles you will see everywhere this season.
Why should you try short hairstyles?
Quick to style, they offer a modern and dynamic silhouette.
You can also say goodbye to dry hair and split ends that require maintenance. Short hair has so many advantages that I’m considering making an appointment at the hairdresser to try it out, even though I’ve never dared to cut my hair too short!
Do you have fine or flat hair? Choosing a short hairstyle can also help you regain volume and height instead of battling against flat locks.
Wavy hair can also find its place with a lovely short cut that gives off a little rebellious romantic vibe like icon Timothée Chalamet.
For those who have a slight apprehension at the sight of a pair of scissors, I recommend the soft crop. The hair is cut short while maintaining some length as if the hair has just grown out.
What to consider before taking the plunge?
Cutting the ends or refreshing your layers? Easy. However, think twice before opting for a short haircut.
Here’s what you need to consider. Yes, it’s a lot to think about for a haircut, but with a big change comes attention to every detail.
- Your desires
Before following the trend, of course, it’s your desires that matter. If you’ve always wanted to try having short hair but have never dared until now… let yourself be tempted this year, I promise you won’t be the only one!
- Face shape
Round faces can leave some length in the front to avoid a “ball” effect. The goal is to slim down the head and add height to the cut. We will soften square and rectangular faces by adding volume and a “wave” effect.
- Look inspiration
Urban and fashion-forward, the soft crop will suit you beautifully, while the boyish cut allows for all sorts of eccentricities.
- Root growth
Your roots are not a barrier to cutting your long hair; on the contrary. If your dark roots are growing out under your blonde dye, you can play up the vintage vibe with a mullet cut, or even a very short buzz cut.
- Hair texture
An important factor to consider when choosing your dream haircut. If your hair is fine and tends to fall flat, consider the famous bowl cut that will showcase your face. If you have thick hair, boyish cuts will beautifully highlight the texture of your hair.

Short hair also loves accessories, and you can enhance your new cut with hair clips to emphasize the cute or provocative side. To hold thick hair in place, a styling wax may be necessary. Use it cautiously or liberally if you want a wet look.
