With the change of seasons comes the perfect opportunity to update your style. If you’re thinking about a new haircut, why not go for the chop? Short hair is bold and refreshing, especially if you’ve had long hair for a while and are getting tired of it.
Need inspo? We’ve got a curated list of short fall hair that includes trendy lobs, edgy pixies and choppiest shags you’ll definitely want to try.
1. Soft Pixie Shag
This overgrown shaggy pixie cut works with the hair’s texture, which makes it incredibly easy to style. Work a little styling cream through the strands and let air dry for a perfectly fluffy, soft look.
2. Blunt Bob
No list of short haircuts is complete without the blunt bob. This timeless cut has a blunt outline, but invisible texturizing layers give it movement and shape.
3. Pixie With Long Bangs
Cheekbone-length bangs are the secret ingredient that makes this long pixie cut looks good on nearly everyone; they frame the face and instantly create a more flattering look.
4. French Bob
Season after season, the French bob keeps making lists of most-coveted haircuts and this isn’t about to change. This look will make you look and feel so chic!
5. Textured Crop
The best thing about a messy, textured crop is that it can be tailored to suit you by slightly modifying the shape. For example, adding volume on top, making it more rounded or elongated and playing with the type of bangs you pair it with.
6. ’90s Bob With Bangs
The ’90s bob is blunt but soft and looks beautiful whether or not you style it. This bouncy hairstyle is so fun to wear that you’ll never think about growing out your hair again.
7. Rebel Pixie
A daring chop is a big step, but if you’re determined to find a new style, a bold pixie will transform your look.
8. Chin-Length Bob
This chin-length bob is super sharp and futuristic-looking. If you want your hair to be as short as possible but retain the bob shape, you can ask your stylist for slight graduation in the back or go for an edgier look and buzz the hair at the nape.
9. ’90s Bixie Cut
The ’90s bixie arrived and made everyone obsessed, and it’s no wonder—this hairstyle will make you look cool and laid-back. The best part? It looks amazing even as it grows out.
10. Curly Bob
Do you have curly hair and resist cutting it short out of fear of looking poofy? Well, your fears are justified—unless you can find a hairstylist skilled in cutting curly hair. They are out there, though, so don’t settle for less.
11. Edgy Bowl Cut
Trends come and go, and what was once considered unstylish, suddenly becomes cool. The mullets recently accomplished a comeback, and now it’s the bowl cut’s turn. The modern, cute version of this style is on the rise.
12. Layered Bob
Versatile and timeless, the layered bob is airy and bouncy, easy to style and customizable, so unless you really have your heart set on another hairstyle, give this one a shot.
13. Razored Bob
One of the common features of lots of trends this year is everything manageable, easy to wear and no fuss. The razor-cut bob is one of the styles that checks all those boxes, and then some: it gives the hair texture and movement.
14. Bixie Cut
The shape of the bixie cut isn’t set, but most of the time it’s longer in the back than the sides and has some type of bangs. Paired with short, choppy bangs, it has a cute but edgy look straight out of the ’00s.
15. Asymmetrical Bob
The asymmetrical bob features a diagonal outline, so one side is longer than the other. This can be subtle or exaggerated, but the look is always cutting-edge.
16. Curly Pixie
The curly pixie will make you look cherubic and soft most days, but when you’re looking to appear sharper or sexier, experiment with side parts and slicked-back styles.
17. Modern Mullet
Mullets today are different from mullets of the past, starting from the way they’re created. Carefully carved and shaped, the modern mullet is soft, intentional and edgy.
18. Layered Lob
For those who want to experiment with shorter hair but aren’t ready to commit yet, the layered lob is a great starting point. Long enough to be familiar if you’ve always had long hair, but it still has the feeling of the bob.
19. Undercut Pixie
Make your pixie edgy instead of cute with the addition of an undercut. Because the whole haircut is so short, the difference isn’t large enough to be shocking, but it still packs a punch.
20. Curly Shag
Curly hair and shaggy haircuts seem to be a match made in heaven, thanks to the beauty of soft layers. This incredible shaggy mullet makes the curls lightweight and bouncy.
21. Shaggy Bob
Shaggy layers make bobs fluffy and soft like a short shag or a long pixie, but you still get to retain some length and shape. This look is great for those who love the feeling of lots of hair around the face.
22. Shullet
A cross between the shag and the mullet, this trendy haircut is super low-maintenance and easy to style. As it grows, it becomes more shag-like, so it’s also easy to grow out.
23. Short Curly Cut
A good haircut honors curly hair instead of struggling with its texture. This beautiful haircut follows the shape of the curls and lets them bloom.
