Haircuts for Short Necks



First things first. What should you be looking at when choosing hairstyles for a short neck? Your primary concern should be to pick a style that accentuates your features, rather than playing it down. This can happen only if you decide upon the right length for your hair, since the length is always a key aspect of making any coiffe look good. So, while short hair is a good look for short necks, I know that there is a bunch of girls out there who aren’t big fans of this look, and given that they’re the more girly kinds, they like the long hair look way better. The good news for them is that they need not worry either. There is a reasonable amount of cuts and styles for them to pick from too. Now, whether you want to take a chance with some cute short haircuts or simply stay long, is your choice. Go with something chic and I’m sure you wouldn’t be disappointed. Here are a few styles for you to consider so as to go stylish this 2011.

Short Pixie Haircut: We’ve all seen and loved the way Victoria Beckham sports this cut. Undoubtedly, a swank look for your manes, you need to be confident enough to carry it off. Here’s the thing though, this style works best for either oval or heart shaped faces. So, if you have a round face, this style definitely is one you should stay away from.

Short Bob Haircut: The bob has been around and stylish for a long time now. But more recently we’ve seen Katie Holmes wear this cut. The advantage with this look is its versatility. If a classic look is what you want, it’s very easily attainable. At the same time, jazz it up with bangs and you’re set for a more youthful look. A really neat and sharp look for your bangs could be cute side swept razored bangs.

Wavy Bob Haircut: Didn’t we just talk about versatility a while ago? Here’s exactly what I meant. This bob allows you to do so much with your hair. If you are one of those girls who doesn’t have straight hair, you need not worry. This bob works wonders with wavy hair too. If you aren’t convinced, check out pictures of Christina Aguilera wearing this look.

Layered Bob Haircut: Yet another look for a bob is the layered look. Crazy, right! Yes, there really are so many ways for you to funk up the conventional cut. The advantage with a layered look is that it can give your hair loads of volume. So, if you’re one of those girls with flat hair, lacking volume, opt for this style. It’s cute, yet sophisticated, and you play around with it for a different look every time.

Medium Length Curly Hairdo: A super cute and girly look, this is perfect for the more feminine girls out there. Mid length hair is a very safe idea if you don’t want the extremes. Get some soft curls with sharp bangs, and you’re set. Bask in the glory of your cuteness, and you’ll surely make a few heads turn.



While those were a few ideas regarding short neck hairdos, here are a few other tips that you might want to remember. Your haircut should always work in accordance with the shape of your face, while the length should also work with your height. If you aren’t very tall, try keeping yourself away from very long hair. It’ll give you a slightly stunted look, and that is something you definitely do not want. Also, your jawline, (obviously) neck, and shoulders will decide how great a haircut will look on you. A short neck, double chin or broad shoulders, would mean a cut that doesn’t stop at either of these points. This is because it’ll only highlight the features you want to draw away attention from. It would also be wise to pick volume accordingly. Excess volume can look a little wild, thus making a mess of all the effort gone into your hair. For more suggestions, ask your hairstylist what would look good on you, and take a chance.



I trust the given suggestions will help you figure out some short neck hairdos. We’ve seen celebs sport it, now it’s your turn. Get experimental and enjoy your cut. Don’t forget, your hair will grow back in no time. So it’s time to go chop-chop!
