ALL ABOUT BEAUTY: Shave It Chic

All About Beauty

Cassie, Rihanna, Avril, Kesha. What do these girls have in common other than being huge stars? Shaved heads. These women didn’t shave all of their hair off, although that look is being flaunted everywhere; instead, they shaved the sides of their heads. Today’s Fashionista has done the same thing.

The shaved head trend has been going strong for what seems to be the last two years now. Celebrities have been popping up sporting buzzed locks left and right. Since celebrity style is so influential, more and more people are deciding to do the same. This style swarms the streets of Savannah.

You can approach this trend in multiple different ways. You can shave just a small section, or square, of hair on one side, shave both sides of your head and leave a full top or shave a big section out of one side leaving just enough to be able to swoop the other side over and cover it up. Trying subtle nuances here and there can lead to tons of different, unique looks.

This Fashionista manages to rock the look. Her cut is bold and daring. Even though the one side is so short, she is still able to wear her hair in a ponytail. It is such a good compromise. If you saw her from only one side, you wouldn’t even notice that she had the cut. What I loved about this Fashionista’s cut the most was that there was such a dynamic contrast going on. She has long bangs on one side and no hair on the other. It was like a work of art, just as one’s hair should be.

This is a high maintenance haircut. In order to keep it looking fresh and edgy, you need to get in trimmed approximately every four weeks. You’re going to need some styling products like Bumble and bumble’s Texture Hair (Un) Dressing Crème. This product will help you achieve the perfectly messy style you might want. Phytovolume Actif Maximinzing Volume Spray is a good product to spray in before you blow dry. This will lift the hair at the root to give you more volume. Bumble and bumble Does It All Styling Spray is a must. It is so versatile and gives great hold while still allowing you to play around a little.

Do you have the courage to try out this bold cut?
