Short Haircuts for 2015

In recent posts i talked about my experience of chopping my hair off. Today i want to write about the different types of haircuts you can choose from if you are too, like so many other woman at the moment thinking of going for a shorter do. Here are three different haircuts i have found to be very popular in the salon recently. 

The 'Lob' 

For those of you who haven't heard of this incredibly popular haircut, the 'Lob' is quite basically a long bob. Making waves last year it has become the new 'it' haircut, almost as famous as the iconic 'Rachel' haircut Jennifer Aniston brought to us in the 90's. Cut so its just below the shoulder, usually sitting on the collar bone, this haircut is a safe option for the ladies out there wanted to try a short style but not sure they can cope with the big change. It's the perfect way of easing yourself into short styles. This easy to style cut is perfect because it's not too short so can easily be grown out back to your original long hair style, but then again its not too long that the change isn't big enough. Celebrities like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Kim K have jumped on the bandwagon of cutting off their long hair and followed this trend. 

Carefree Crop

If you're feeling slightly braver then opt for a carefree crop. This style is cut just above the shoulder and should sit between the jaw and tips of your shoulders. Its not much shorted than the lob but the extra few inches off takes you into the category of not being able to easily tie your hair up, which can be quite important for some some of us. This style is seen on both heavily styled hair and a more everyday untouched look (see picture below). Celebrities like Lauren Conrad and Taylor Swift have both been taking their lob's shorter and rocking a more carefree crop. 

Jaw Length Waves

If you are more of the daring type and want to go for a much shorter style then cutting to the jaw is perfect for you. The trend this year is to pair this cut with loose waves and a heavy side parting to give that unkempt messy vibe. I predict this cut to become very popular in the next few month and will soon be taking over the lob craze that seems to be happening at the moment. I wish i was as brave as Sienna Miller, who recently surprised us all by cutting her hair to the jaw, and Hunger Games Star Jennifer Lawrence has grown out her pixie crop now sporting this trend too.

Do you think you will take your hair shorter this year?
