3. Bob Cut With Bangs

A bouncy bob with full bangs looks fresh and youthful. This hairstyle also helps give balance to a round face shape.
4. Pigtails for Short Hair

Want a cute hairstyle for school? Put your hair in pigtails. To do this, divide your hair into two equal sections and tie each side. If you have bangs, finger-comb them to make them wispy for a Korean-inspired look.
5. Short Hair With Curtain Bangs

Speaking of Korean-inspired hairstyles, here’s another one: short hair with curtain bangs. This type of fringe elevates a simple bob haircut, making it chic and runway-ready.
Editor’s tip: Finish styling your hair by applying a drop of TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Anti-Frizz Shine Serum. It calms frizz, adds shine, detangles knots, tames flyaways, and makes your hair soft. Its non-greasy formula leaves your hair silky smooth and full of movement.
6. Headband Braid

This hairstyle for short kulot hair keeps strands off your face while letting you showcase your natural curls. To create this ‘do, take a section of hair near your left ear. Then, make a Dutch braid. Plait from your left ear to the top of your head and right ear. Add more strands to your braid as you go along. When the braid reaches your right ear, secure the tips with an elastic. Lastly, put the braid in place with a bobby pin.
7. Half Updo for Short Hair

You can tie your hair with a scrunchie, an elastic, or a plain hair tie. But if you want to minimize hair pulling, create a half updo using a hair clip that’s big enough to hold your hair.
8. Half-Up Top Knot

Breeze through the day’s tasks without worrying about your hair. Put it in a half-up top knot, and you won’t need to restyle it in the middle of the day.
9. Messy Lob With Hair Studs

This hairstyle adds sparkle to a casual look. It also complements party outfits, making it a day-to-night hairstyle.
10. Straight A-Line Bob

An A-line bob has short hair at the back that gradually becomes longer as it approaches the front. Highlight the shape of your bob by ironing your hair straight.
There you go! You can still play around with different hairstyles even if you have short hair. Let these ideas inspire you.
