Fun and Short Hairstyles for Summer 09

Long hair can be so frustrating in the summer. It's so hot that no one really feels like being aggravated with long hair that just seems to make your body even hotter. Therefore, most women just decide to chop all their hair off in the summer and go for the more sexier short hairstyles. I personally have had my hair short for about eight years now, and I don't think I'll ever go back to long. Short hair is so much easier to maintain and accentuates so many different face structures. But before you decide to chop all your hair off, or most of it anyway, how do you know which styles are the hottest? These hot and fun hairstyles are sure to have you looking glamorous this summer!

The stacked-bob cut is very popular these days. Many women are wearing them and they seem to have become a new trend. This cut is where your hair is cut short in the back with stacked layers, and angled around your face. The front is also a little longer than the back. This is a very fun cut that doesn't require a lot to keep up. Most days I can just get up and go with out having to do anything to it. After I wash it, I use a round vented hair brush and blow dry it under. Sometimes I will use a flat iron to straighten the sides. This is pretty much all you need to do to rock this style. Many celebrities have hairstyles like this including Victoria Beckham.

If you're looking to go really short, try the pixie style such as the one Katie Holmes was seen with. This cut and style is very easy to manage. Most of the time with this style you can simply wash and go, but for a quick style, towel dry hair and rub in a gel or pomade. Use a comb or your fingers to place hair where you want it (spiky is best), then blow dry and spray with a hairspray.

Another great style is the "choppy" cut. Many people have choppy hairstyles including Eva Longoria. This style looks good on almost all women. Choppy hairstyles are a little harder to maintain but they are very fun. Use a product like hair wax, rub all through your hair after it's been towel dried. The best way to style this is after rubbing in the wax, take your fingers and rub them up all through your head to create that flipped-out look. Then blow dry and spray a little hairspray in.

If you have a short cut whether your hair is in layers or just straight, another great style is to add some bangs. I don't mean bangs that are cut straight across, I mean the ones that are cut at an angle, short on one side, and long on the other. Having your bangs cut like this and using a flat iron to straighten you hair, will add alot of sexiness to your cut and this style is very popular with young people these days.

For a fun short and curly style like that of Rihanna, all you really need is a curling iron and some moose or gel wax. Apply the wax or moose to wet hair and blow dry just using your fingers. Take a few strands of hair and twist them around your finger while you are blow drying. After you've blow dried your hair, use a medium or small sized curling iron and curl the pieces that didn't curl all the way during blow drying. This is a fun and sexy way to wear your short, curly hair.
