Subject: Crop It Ladies.... Short Hair is Back in Style! Author: --Richey (svenhair) (happy) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 01/30/07 10:54am It all but apparent now... The focus this year will be on shorter hairstyles. Short is stylish, chic convenient and its back! Shaggy styles, pixies and bobs that are very short at the nape have suddenly become very popular. Short hair has been popular for around 90 years now and really have never really gone away but now it's back big time. In the 1920’s it was seen as the height of fashionable and the short page boy or jaw length bob cut was the "it" girls must have look. In the sixties Twiggy became a superstar and launched millions of short cuts with her great look. The 60s were a time of liberation when women felt a new equality and power and having short hair made a statement – Female liberation started to gather pace in everything from hair to clothes. Through out the 70s 80s and 90s, short hair continued to be popular but it’s set for a huge boost now. The revival of the crop Short hair cuts received media attention when the model Agyness Deyn cut her hair into a stunning platinum crop in homage to by 80s model Jenny Howarth. SHe was lookin for a way to stand out and she succeeded. Her compa was raised by more than 500% as she signed contracts with Dior. If you haven't heard of Agyness until now I predict that soon you will be seeing her everywhere.

Short cropped hair can be seen on the covers of the major fashion magazines and many more women are going short. In fact many who would have never considered short hair are quickly becoming converts to short hair and as the trend continues many more than ever will crop in spring of 2007 and beyond. Why short Crops? There are two main reasons for this new trend. 1. It Gives Freedom Women use the crop as a statement of a new start and a great way to do this is to get a new look and short hair makes the statement I am free and proud. Many women when they divorce break up with a partner or change career are changing to short hair as a way to indicate a new start and a new found confidence. Although it was forced upon her by her cancer scare, think of Kylie Mynogue when she faced the cameras with her new short look; she looked great and was making the statement - I am confident I Will not be beaten. 2. It Saves time You can simply wash and go and save time to do more important things than worry about hair care. Does my face shape matter? The best face shape for a crop is oval, but you can have a crop that will suit any face shape and your hairdresser or stylist will advice on which one is best to soften your features, even if you don’t have perfect bone structure. The short crop is for everyone. We are off to a new year and a new start so why not get with one of the hottest fashion trends of the year a new short crop. You will save time on care but still look stylish, chic and sexy! So make a statement today! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
