The Ultimate Guide to Short Haircuts at Assort

Do you want a massive hair change? Cutting your hair short feels incredibly free. Indeed, spring is the perfect time for a big chop. Therefore, we want to show you our top short styles. Many clients feel scared to lose their long length. However, a great short cut highlights your face completely. Let us explore four amazing short options today. We will explain exactly what each cut is. Thus, you can easily pick the perfect fresh look.

1. The Short Layered Bob

First, let us look at the short layered bob. This classic cut always looks very chic. Actually, it stops right around your chin or jawline. Plus, we cut soft layers throughout the back. As a result, this adds amazing volume and movement. Therefore, your hair never looks flat or heavy. Furthermore, layers remove bulky weight from thick hair. Consequently, the shape hugs your head very softly. Ultimately, it frames your unique face shape beautifully. You can easily style this with soft waves.

2. The Regular Blunt Bob

A back view of a classic bob haircut. The hair is cut to a uniform, blunt length that sits right at the jawline, creating a sleek and symmetrical look.

Next, let us talk about the regular bob. Actually, stylists also call this a blunt bob. Specifically, we cut the hair completely straight across. Therefore, this style has absolutely zero layers inside. As a result, all your hair stops at one exact length. Consequently, your hair looks much thicker and fuller. Plus, it creates a very sleek, sharp bottom line. Ultimately, this classic shape never goes out of style. Thus, it works beautifully on fine, straight hair. It gives fine hair a massive density boost.

3. The Bold Pixie Cut

Also, we must discuss the bold pixie cut. Do you want something extremely short and daring? If so, the pixie is your absolute best choice. Specifically, we cut the back and sides very close. We use clippers or scissors for this tight shape. Meanwhile, we leave a little more length on top. Consequently, this draws total attention to your eyes. Moreover, it exposes your elegant neck and jawline completely. Thus, you will save so much daily styling time. You only need a quick texture paste.

4. The Trendy Bixie Cut

A side view of a "bixie" cut, a hybrid between a pixie and a bob. The hair features the shaggy layers of a pixie but maintains the length of a short bob around the ears and nape, creating a soft, voluminous shape.

Additionally, have you ever heard of the trendy bixie? Actually, this is a fun mix of two popular styles. It blends a bob and a pixie cut perfectly. Specifically, it offers the short, choppy layers of a pixie. However, it keeps the longer fringe length of a bob. Therefore, the front looks like a regular short bob. Meanwhile, the back has very short, messy texture. Furthermore, it gives you that cool nineties grunge vibe. Ultimately, it offers a great middle ground for nervous clients.

5. How to Style Short Hair

Finally, let us review how to style short hair. Indeed, short hair needs different daily products than long hair. You must use a light texture paste or soft wax. For example, rub a tiny amount between your warm hands. Next, scrunch it gently into your dry hair ends. As a result, this creates that cool, lived-in texture instantly. Plus, always use our Assort Multi Oil for smooth shine. Thus, your fresh cut will look salon-perfect every day. Proper styling makes these cuts look truly amazing.
