Bobs, Pixies, Fringes, and the Best of Short Styles

Hair styles come and go. One day long hair is fashionable, and the next it seems like everyone is chopping it off up to their ears. Finding trends is fun, but the true way to find that right hairstyle is to find something that works with skin tone and face shape. Here are a few short bobs, pixie, and face-length cuts with a little something extra.

	This bob is a combination of past and present style. The curls give a fun and flirty feel, while the short bangs offer sophistication that has been passed down from the 1950s.
	This curly blonde bob has some reminiscence of starlet Marilyn Monroe. The washed curl look is easy to style and go. All that is needed is a good holding gel or mousse.
	This helmet bob is fierce. Not only does the silver/ white color make a bold statement, but the messy construction of a classic hairstyle would definitely command any room. This hairstyle is best for women with fine hair as thick hair would be too poufy to create this look.
	This haircut is between a bob and a hipster cut. Instead of the fringe bangs that cover up one eye, this look calls for a kind of mess head look. It would be simple to style with a little curl mousse. Women with wavy hair could pull this look off best.(Photo Source: pinterest.com)
	This semi-bob takes fringed ends to a whole new level. The back for this cut needs to be short like a typical bob, but the front extends in a long fringe style. This would be a simple cut on fine hair, but might require head bands and scarfs for styling.
	Victoria Beckham has become well-known for her pixie and bob cuts. This blonde pixie cut takes advantage of longer fringed bangs in the front. This is a messy yet stylish cut that is great for the woman wants to look fabulous in seconds.
	This look is for the daring. It requires going between platinum blonde and silver. It is an extremely messy bob that could probably get by without being brushed. This is more of a statement haircut and style.(Photo Source: pinterest.com)
	This slick bob is bold and sophisticated at the same time. The bangs are a mix of straight and fringed. The honey color flatters this cut even further. A few rollers and shine spray could easily pull this same look off.
	This ear length cut is a little longer than a bob, but the Marilyn curls can still be achieved with a little styling. Too add to the wild appeal add short fringed bangs with a bright orange hair dye.
	This bob haircut is actually quite popular. While it is extra messy in this picture, many women like the uneven cut. It gives a little extra flavor to any style. Combined with the two-toned colors this cut is extra fashionable.(Photo Source: mossss.tumblr.com)
	What woman does not wish she looked like Olivia Wilde or at least had her tresses? Her chestnut brown hair looks great no matter how it is styled. Here in loose messy curls she makes relaxed look amazing. This style can be easily achieved by running curling gel through damp hair and letting it air dry. For the full effect, try getting side-swept bangs.
	This bob is perfect for fair complexions, and this color or even a black hair dye is great for this cut. The length is same all around, and the bangs are cut straight across. A two inch curling iron could really top this look off, or the woman could go for a messier relaxed look like in this picture with some mousse and towel drying.(Photo Source: pinterest.com)
	This look is great for women that like to keep it simple. A simple cut right off the shoulders either even or with a few layers on the ends. This haircut is really easy to take care of, and there is no need for unnecessary chemicals.
	This look can give Katy Perry a run for her money. This cut is for the quirky and brave. It is rather easy to take care of being the same length all around. The problem would be keeping the roots touched up with the pink dye. Try using a hair dye solution and only shampoo when necessary to keep the color from fading too quickly.
	Another simple hair-cut. This is for someone who is not too worried about their hair, but still makes sure to maintain it. The bangs will need a trim at least every three weeks to keep this look.
	Jenny McCarthy pulls this look off with ease. It perfectly frames her long face. This is an excellent haircut for women with the same head type. It pulls focus to all the right features like the prominent cheekbones. It is also a simple yet stylish look that works great with just about any outfit.
	This bob has two things going for it. It has that popular styled but messy look, and the shading of color. This look of combining similar yet different colors works very well depending on the person’s skin tone.
	Rihanna is the queen of short hair styles. Even though now she is rocking that red color, she did this color proud. Her bob with a shag in the front became a very trendy style that is still in circulation. It is a great look for women with fine hair to medium hair. Even oval faces tend to look the absolute best.
	Ali Bastian does this look proud. It is perfect for girls or women with delicate looking features. The blonde makes the curls that much more girly. Doesn’t she look innocent? Not to mention it perfectly frames her heart shaped head.
	This style takes the short cut up a notch. Women will need a haircut that is almost touching their shoulders or a little longer for this to work. They will need rollers to get the overall effect. After pinning them up and using hair spray to make the big hair look, use bobby pins to hold any of the front hair in place up and over the front of the head. This look really was made for redheads.
