Sexy Short Hair (2)
Previous pageHow to maintain a short haircut to optimize its sexiness
Contrary to the popular view that short hair does not require much maintenance, to ensure optimal sexiness, there are several essential steps that need to be carried out regularly.
Short hair needs to be washed even more frequently than long hair, as it cannot conceal natural scalp oils as well as long hair can. Shampooing short hair as often as every day or at the very least every other day, will guarantee short hair is kept stylish. Only use conditioner on short hair if it is very dry, and even then only use a small amount.
One of the best attributes of short hair is the ability to experiment with hair color. Often it is a case of the bolder the better when making a short cut sexy. Short haircuts can handle the dramatic bright reds, rich chocolate browns, and stout blonde highlights that many long locks would be deemed to ridicule. Experiment with color; you have the ability to do so.
Add volume and texture by experimenting with different styling products. While long hair can become too heavy, dull, and weighed down by styling products, products such as waxes, pastes, and volumizers used on short hair will add some sparkle and will ensure sexy short hair.
There is no need to spend hours in front of the hairdryer when your locks are cut short, as short hair and lengthy periods under the blow dryer spells disaster. Fuzzy, heat-damaged short hair can look terrible, a far cry from glamorous and sexy. It is advisable to blow dry short hair until it is almost dry, then give it some tousle, ruffle, and shine with products and shine spray.
Having short hair can also bring a new dimension to wearing hair accessories, as wearing decorations such as wraps, barrettes, and headbands works wonders in the pursuit of sexy short hair.
Former comedian and therapist Pamela Stephenson sparked discussion by publicly suggesting that women who had their hair cut short were deliberately diminishing a desire to be seen as desirable. The comment predictably triggered outrage with short-haired women being more than a little peeved that they were being accused of being "asexual" and unattractive.
Opposing Stephenson’s views, are not only the millions of women who are increasingly braving the hairdresser’s scissors and going for the chop and who do not consider their choice of hair length as deliberately sabotaging their sexuality, but also the millions of men who regard women with short hair as extremely desirable and sexy.
Short hair can be intensely sexy, but not sexy in the submissive, coy, "girl-next-door" look that long hair usually denotes, but in a more dominant, powerful, and commanding way.
