We’ve gathered dozens of interesting ideas for those who need a haircut with bangs, for those who wanna find a cool edgy hairdo, for older women (yeah, we have something interesting for them, too!), and for those who are looking for short layered shaggy hairstyles. For y’all, basically!
Alright, let’s finally start it. Are you ready?
Ideas of short shaggy haircuts with bangs
One of the biggest problems of complex hairstyles is the time you need to spend on styling in the morning. Styling your hair can be a real problem when you are in a hurry — which basically means every morning, right?
But don’t worry: short shaggy cuts will help you solve this problem. They look very effortless, messy (sometimes) and casual (always), and there is one thing you expect from an effortless and casual hairdo: you expect simplicity. Short shags are simplicity itself.
And that’s why we love them. Simple, short, sexy and stylish cut that looks great on every hair length/hair texture — what can be better than that? Another piece of good news sounds like this: the short shaggy cuts are perfect for the women who love bangs.
The thing is, we know that some people say that the bangs look bad, obsolete and that they are not what you should choose in the late 2010s. We, however, do definitely not agree with these people — because bangs still look great with some hairdos. Like… yeah, like with short shags. We think you’ve got the idea.
Take a look at the short hairdos we’ve found here. They look perfect with bangs, they will work great for all the ladies who are looking for something flirty and sassy — and yes, short hair can look flirty, too. Actually, it’s all about the texture, the layers and the bangs — whether they are long or short, they still are very feminine. Just look at the photos above and you’ll see what we’re talking about here.
What’s the best hair for such cuts? Well, it doesn’t really matter. We’d say the answer is “thick and wavy” if we were talking about long shags, but the short shags look great on both thick and thin hair. Layering and choppy ends create a very rock ‘n’ roll vibe together with long or short bangs.
The last piece of good news is that lots of the short shags with bangs can work great as formal hairstyles. Yeah, they are effortless and messy sometimes, and lots of them look like “Oh, I Just Woke Up Like That!”, but some of them are perfect even if you are going to a formal event. Keira Knightley can confirm that.
So, let’s make it clear: short shags with bangs are a great choice for you if you wanna find an effortless, yet sexy and flirty hairstyle. What’s more, they are not always effortless — so actually, you can wear some of them even if you’ll have to attend a formal event. That’s basically all we wanted to say here — so all you have to do now is to check the photos we’ve found for you!
Edgy short shag hairstyles
What about adding edginess to your look? Edgy short hairstyles are cool and extremely fresh — and they look even better if they are layered. Here you’ll find edgy short shag cuts that look really trendy — and we are sure you won’t be disappointed.
These hairstyles will make you look younger, if that’s what you are looking for. They are perfect for straight and curly hair, so don’t worry about it — you won’t need to curl or to straighten your hair to wear such haircuts. That’s why we all love short shaggy cuts.
But that’s not the only reason of their popularity, of course. As you’ve probably noticed, the shags we’ve collected here are perfect even for the women with very short hair — while the haircuts in the previous paragraph were very similar to traditional bob haircuts (but with layers and bangs, of course), here we’ll show you something different. Actually, there are lots of pixie haircuts here — so if you’ve already heard about them, you will most likely find something familiar.
However, these pixie haircuts are not as simple as they were 30-40 years ago. Thesecuts are trendy and fashionable — with textures, bangs and layers. And of course, they are still feminine and romantic — so don’t worry, short hair doesn’t mean that you have to look like a boy (but you still can if you prefer a boyish look, of course).
So, if you’ve decided to try a shaggy and edgy short haircut, you are probably a very brave person… And you’ve come to the right place. Meet seven amazing photos that are waiting for you here — just make your choice and show the photo you’ve chosen to your hairdresser!
