Big Chop with a Taper Fade

@michelllearaujo

This tapered haircut makes a modern look for a woman who is empowered.

Hairstylist Michelle Araújo of Brazil, says “I think this natural tapered hairstyle is a 21st-century look. I see a lot of women doing the same cut because it feels beautiful, and we don’t feel like we need to have long hair anymore. I have never had such short hair like this, and I couldn’t be loving it more.”

To style the hair, use products that will not give it such a curly definition because it will make it stuck in the head. You can use a very simple leave-in and a lot of fort comb and you’re ready, and Araújo notes that you don’t need to have a specific face shape for this at all.

Short and Natural Tapered Cut

@hair_by_dana_salon

This short and natural tapered haircut was made by stylist Dana Alexander of Trinidad and Tobago. It’s is perfect for a lady who doesn’t want to spend a lot of time styling their hair due to a hectic professional or social lifestyle and those who are looking for something edgy and easy to maintain.

Alexander adds, “The best thing about this haircut is the length on top that allows you to have different styling options for different hair types like finger coils, twist out, Bantu knots, rod sets, blowouts, and a regular wash and go.”

Short natural haircuts for black women like this can be customized by working with the shape of the head and face. Alexander notes, “It’s a great option for transitioning women or those who want a shorter, more manageable length but are still looking for styling options.

You can allow your curls to fall free over your face or pushed back for a frohawk look. For this style, Alexander did some finger coils to add definition and control to the curls for a longer-lasting hairstyle.

Some positives of a pixie cut on tapered hair are that it’s so simple to style and that you use way less product. Baker further explains, “Having short hair is much easier to manage when doing a wash and go style. Whether that is on 2a or 4c curls, it’s super simple!”
