Short Choppy Hairstyles – Medium Choppy Hairstyle

Posted by Hair Styles

medium choppy hairstylesOne very popular hairstyle right now is the medium length choppy cut.  This style is accomplished by cutting your hair to a short or medium length, if your hair is not already this length, and creating a look where the ends are disheveled and messy.  Choppy hairstyles are daring and cute.  They look good on almost any type of face however they do look best on heart shaped and round faces.

To get this look you will need to apply mousse, gel or wax to your wet head and rub your hands through your hair to toss it.  Let it dry on its own.  This particular method usually only works for naturally straight hair. So you will need to try a little different method if your hair is curly or wavy.

If your hair is curly or wavy you can get this choppy look by drying your hair and then applying wax to your hair and use a flat iron to straighten the hair.  Apply wax to your fingertips and work it into the hair, then use the flat iron to create a choppy look by straightening the hair at the tips.

The other way to create this look is to have your hairstylist cut your hair with a razor.  This is often called a razor cut.  The hairstylist will use a razor to cut layers into your hair, creating a great choppy layered hairstyle. It is a great way to get the same choppy look with out having to use much styling product in your hair.

Create A Sexy Woman’s Hairstyle

The key to making a sexy woman’s hairstyle is to make it look.. well sexy. This hairstyle is not a specific hair style but whether a style that flaunts the person’s features and make them look even sexier than they already where. There are some ways of achieving this type of style; you just have to choose which ones to go with.

If you have long straight or wavy hair, you can add loose curls and blonde highlights. If you also have long bangs, you can flip them to one side to match the rest of the hair. The next step is to add an accessory to the hair. We have all seen them in girls’ hair, whether they are flowers, pins or head bands, the idea is to pin back one side of the hair, usually the opposite side of the flipped bangs.

For girls with medium length hair, try a layered bob cut or pixie cut to add style to your hair. It depends on your face shape, but one style is to have short hair in the back and longer hair in the front, while adding a bit of color to the tips or highlights will add flair and make your style a little sexier.

If you need to add something to your hair style, going with highlights or frosted tips just makes the hair stand out and revamps the sexiness of your hair. It’s not necessary to add color as you can always use your natural hair color and still change your style. There are semi-permanent hair dyes that eventually wash out of your hair if you wish to try a color or two. Adding color can really renew the look of your style.
