Looking for a change to get you through this new decade? Treat yourself to a dynamic and trendy short haircut. Plunging bob, boyish cut, bob… The possibilities are numerous. It’s up to you to let your desires speak for themselves!

In any case, know that a short cut is always a good idea. Not only does it allow you to look a few years younger, but it is also an excellent way to save time in the morning in the bathroom. Short hair is quicker to style: no more laborious blow-drying and straightening, just a little styling wax to tame your flyaways and you’re done. Finally, don’t be afraid of losing your femininity by letting go of your lengths. There’s nothing more chic and elegant than an untangled neck and face.

The boyish cut for an assertive style

Also known as tomboy or boyish, the tomboy cut is the most radical version of short haircuts. Here, the hair is no longer than 3 to 4 centimeters and is simply styled on the side using a styling wax. An ultra chic cut that will be perfect for the forty or fifty year old who wants to assert her look.
It’s for me if… I have an oval face like Halle Berry and Cristina Cordula. And I’m not afraid to go to the hairdresser every two months to maintain my cut.

The bowl cut to regain density

This is the ideal cut to regain dynamism and volume. It draws a rounded and dense hair on the head. Perfect after 40 years, because it is at this age that the hair fiber begins to refine and break.

It’s for me if… I have fine hair that needs volume. All morphologies can adopt the ball cut, provided that it is adapted by playing on the details. Thus, the square faces will not forget to degrade the lengths, in particular around the face, to break the “angular” effect. Long faces will accompany it with a fringe long enough to rebalance the face.

The graphic bob for a chic look

Plunging, straight, ultra short… This bob has a thousand and one ways to be worn. Either way, it’s perfect for adding definition and sophistication to your look. Another advantage: this cut requires very little maintenance and is very easy to style on a daily basis.

It’s for me if… I have straight or slightly wavy hair. In terms of body shape, it suits all face shapes.
