Amazing short hair ideas to try!
Short wavy bob
With just a hint of texture and a jaw-grazing cut, this contemporary take on the bob is one of those great short hair ideas that is effortlessly cool and casual. When it comes to nailing this look, it’s important to get your stylist to work with the natural texture of your hair. So if you have thicker hair, try adding a few layers to give your tresses a lighter look – on the flip side, if you have fine tresses, try working your bob with a blunter cut.
Side parted pixie crop
Exuding a boyish charm, and just a hint of glamour, this pixie cut gives an updated feel to the classic short crop. Although best styled in a slicked-back manner, if you’re feeling especially fashionable, you can try working two hot hair trends together – the side parting and wet-look hair! This short hairstyle also works great to flatter rounder face types, simply by styling this cropped look with smooth, blow-dried hair, the clean silhouette of the cut will help to elongate your face.
Wavy long bob
The shoulder-length long bob is an ideal short hair idea if you’re tempted to try a shorter haircut, but are still a little apprehensive about losing all those inches off your hair! Just liberally spray some of the Toni&Guy Casual Sea Salt Texturising Spray into damp hair and let it air dry. This will give your tresses wonderfully soft, natural-looking waves. Trust us, you’ll look truly fabulous.

Tousled crop
If you like to work and re-work your style on a daily basis, then you need a look that can be moulded to suit your every hair whim – and we have just the thing! The extra length in this shag haircut gives you a lot more room to play with your locks, but the roughed-up, tousled look is our personal favourite way to rock it.
To give yourself a voluminous, textured style, try working the Bed Head Rockaholic Amped Up Volumizing Mousse through damp hair and blow-dry your locks using the Toni&Guy Daily Conditioning Dryer with a brush. This will instantly help create a fuller-looking ‘do, with extra lift at the roots. Easy peasy, eh?
Blunt full fringed bob
Ah, the classic bob. Has there ever been a more fashionable look than this? It has to be one of the best hair ideas for short hair ever invented, with its timeless and impeccably stylish finish. But for a style that’ll really steal the show, try popping in a full, blunt fringe. Let’s be honest, this polished look would be perfect for weddings and fabulous seasonal soirees. Anna Wintour, eat your heart out!
