3 Short Hairstyles for Fall 2012

Thursday September 6, 2012 by ChickAdvisor Team


Miley had the right idea when she decided to go for the chop not too long ago (no pun intended!) and try a short and edgy pixie cut! We recently got the chance to speak with Eric Del Monaco, hair guru and owner of Del Monaco Hair Studio here in Toronto and he gave us the 411 on fall hair trends. You heard it from the best chicks: lengths are rising; short hair is where it is at this fall. With that in mind, we asked him to speak more on what short styles we can try this fall and he did us one better by showing us. With the help from two of his stylists: Daniel Fortunato and Sylvie Prud'Homme, they created three trending hairstyles for fall. 

Hairstyle #1 
 

Pro Tip #1: Hey Blondes! As we move into the cooler months, you'll probably want to do the same with your hair. Tone down your colour and try an few shades cooler. When it comes to your cut, be sure to keep movement and bend in your hair.
 
Hairstyle #2 
 

Pro Tip #2: Colour blocking isn't just for fashion, it's also for your hair. Dye sections of your hair one or two levels darker or lighter for an everyday wearable style. Or go for a more dramatic look with two different colours (i.e. black and blonde). Even with a cut like this that has more defined lines, remember that you can always have looser pieces and texturized hair. 
 
Hairstyle #3 
 

Pro Tip #3: This cut is the most artistic and avant garde of the three so it may not be the cut for everyone. However, do take note of the geometric shapes in the cut that will be big for fall as well as the heavy and blunt fringe. 

Let's hear your thoughts on these short styles!

most suitable for me.

I recently got sick of my dry damaged hair (caused by over dying it if you guys remember...) and went and chopped it off. Now it's barely reaching my shoulders, layers framing my face, and healthy healthy healthy :-) I love it :-)

i like these styles too! They're not for everyone but they do suit these ladies!

I think #2 should be short on both sides

Love the first one!

I like the first two but hate the last one. I'm alright with asymmetrical cuts but this one just doesn't do it for me. Maybe it's the growing out phase I wouldn't like.

Love Hairstyle #1. so funky. I wish I could pull off short funky hair like these.

I'm toying with the idea of going shorter-these styles are still a little 'too short' for me but I find that (as I age) my face looks dragged down by the longer hair. Hoping Eric DelMonaco will have some ideas for me!

Here's a link to a photo I put in my gallery. The other photos show my short-ish hair too, but this one really shows the cut. It's not perfectly blow-dried but you get the idea. :)

I have found that the longer my hair the flatter and more dragged down it looks, no matter what I do with it! It is very fine and I think I needs a cut that does not pull it flat. So I might have to stick with the shorter lengths.
