1. Side-swept, wavy blonde
![Side-swept,-wavy-blonde](https://cdn2.stylecraze.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Side-swept-wavy-blonde.jpg)
Selena Gomez rocks the effortless glam look with a side-swept, wavy blond hairdo. Her hair is slick down on one side at the front to flaunt her dark roots and avoid creating a full triangle look with her tresses as they get fuller near her jawline. The dark roots add a sense of interest to her hairdo by creating a fierce contrast. Wave your hair outwards (away from your face) and spritz on some volumizing spray to amp up the volume. Don’t forget to add that subtle lift with the swept hair. It ties in the whole hairstyle and adds height to her face.
2. Curved in Blunt Bob
Taylor Swift always brings her A-game to the table, even when it comes to hairstyles. The blunt bob with blunt bangs is a perfect choice for those red carpet events. But to avoid the ends from sticking out and creating a triangle look, curve in the ends of your hair with a round brush, mousse, and a blow dryer. Repeat the same for your blunt bangs too. It gives the hairstyle a more chic and Parisian touch that completely sets it apart from other short hairstyles. The blunt bangs highlight Queen Tay’s baby blues stunningly.
3. Asymmetrical Bob
Katy Perry’s side-swept blue bob is just wonderful. Sporting a blunt bob that frames her face beautifully, this classic hairstyle with subtle layers can be tweaked to suit any face shape. However, since this polished hairstyle grows out rapidly, make sure you visit your stylist every 5 weeks to keep your hairstyle in perfect shape. While opting for a new, bright shade, ask your hairdresser to choose a color that compliments your skin tone.

4. Long Blonde Bob

Actress Julianne Hough rocked her super-sleek and sharp angular long bob with side-swept bangs. Known for further elongating a rounder face, the side swept fringe gave her edgy hairstyle a romantic touch and softened her features.
To recreate this chic and smooth look, apply an anti-frizz serum to straighten your hair. Once you are done straightening, spritz on some hairspray to tame flyaways.
5. Pixie Cut
Pixie cut is undoubtedly the best short haircuts for women with straight hair. Emma Watson’s pixie is a bold step towards a poised and confident personal style. Equally chic, clean and feminine, this combed, simple and easy-to-recreate bob is a great in-between style during the growing out period of a pixie cut. To keep your hair in shape and style flawless, visit your salon for regular trims.
Stephanie Ales, a blogger, shared her experience with getting a pixie cut for the first time. She was uncertain after the cut until she started receiving compliments for her haircut. She also agreed that the pixie cut allowed her to style her hair in various ways. “Wearing your hair sleek and shiny for formal events looks way different than giving your bangs some lift in the front on edgy days (i).”

Over the years, actress Ginnifer Goodwin has worn her hair in a lot of different ways, but this retro pixie is the most classy and sophisticated of them all. The actress looks boyish-ly radiant with her poker-straight bob, stylish side-swept parting, and subtle layers. Maintain this look with a straightening iron and a good supply of smoothing anti-frizz hairspray.
7. Long And Side Sweeping
Anne’s flirty style looks fresh and modern ending at the cheekbones with a low side-parting. This style looks incredible on the former The Princess Diaries star Anne Hathaway. We love how her side sweeping hair falls on her cheekbones, drawing attention to her eyes and facial features. Not to forget Anne’s auburn hair colour, something we’d like to recreate in the near future.
8. Sweeping Bangs
Here, actress Sami Gayle sports a look with shorter bangs and sides, similar to that of Anne Hathaway. We adore the way her bangs sweep across her face, directing attention to her beautiful facial features. A perfect everyday pixie hairstyle, the actress looks charming with her neat and simple-to-create-maintain hairdo.
Tip: Opt for natural hair colors is a must if you are thinking of getting a short haircut as they complement your hair length and complexion best.
9. Round Bob
Singer Ashlee is totally owning the bob. It’s flirty, short, and blonde, therefore, checking all the boxes on the list of latest trends this season. Bravo!
Her below-the-chin hair length and the sweeping bangs are perfect for her round face shape. Not to forget, we equally love her platinum blonde hair color. To maintain the look and color in check, visit your stylist for the regular trims and touch-ups.
10. Bob With Blunt Bangs
Wanda Badwal looks gorgeous with her flirty, glossy, and contemporary brown bob. Pair your bob with blunt bangs to further conceal an oval face shape; and for a bold look, glam up the hairstyle with a quirky hair color. Just remember to choose a color that flatters your skin tone, and you are good to go with your perfect bob hairstyle.
11. Combed
Bombshell Rihanna. We cannot express how stunning and absolutely cool this combed pixie looks on the talented songstress. Make the use of flat iron, texturizing serum, and light hairspray to recreate this look. And voila. Someone please pass us the scissors and hair products!
12. Blonde And Polished
When we spotted actress Michelle Williams in this polished pixie, we almost reached for the scissors! The beautiful actress shows us how a look can transform with a simple blonde pixie cut. Her boyish ‘do is a fabulous contrast to her round feminine face, and it accentuates her eyes beautifully. Flirty and very nice indeed.
13. Razor Cut
Billie Eilish raised a wave with her razor cut look as much as she did with her baggy fashion on the red carpet. Razor cut hairstyles feature wispy strands of hair with thinner ends. If you are inspired to change your mane and give yourself a bold and edgy look, this hairstyle is for you. This trendy layered haircut gained popularity in the 70s, and has made a successful comeback in recent years due to many celebrities and influencers sporting it. It is ideal for women with thick hair who want to reduce the density for a lightweight and bouncy appearance, but retain depth with some texture. Razor cut styles give you a sexy bedhead aesthetic that you can carry off effortlessly.
