Neck-Length Choppy Haircuts

@getglamybykate and @simplygorgeousbyerin

“I would describe this choppy haircuts as a fun, slightly edgy look with blonde highlight,” says stylist Kate Vose of Southington, CT. ” It’s also a cut with choppy jagged ends that can be easily grown out to a longer style if you decide to do so.”

Vose styled this blonde hair using Kevin Murphy products. “I washed and conditioned with Angel Wash and Rinse, then spritzed with a little Untangled before the cut. Before the blow dry, I used Anti.Gravity, and after I waved it I sprayed a tiny bit of Session.Spray, tousled it and finished with Shimmer Me Blonde. I used a 1 1/2-inch curling iron and tousled the curls to create fun, sexy waves,” she explains.

She adds, “this model has fine hair but a good amount of it, which makes great ideas for short choppy haircuts. It’s long enough to be pulled into a ponytail but short enough to make for easy, fast styling whether straight or with waves.”

Easy Modern Textured Lob in Choppy Haircuts

@hezstudio

This choppy haircuts is definitely best described as a lob. It was created by hairstylist Kelly Lamond of Scranton, PA. “It modernizes the appearance of the bob by elongating the length in the front and shortening the hair in the back,” says Lamond.

“My favorite thing about this long bob is how it enhances a woman’s proportions and features around the face, as well as how it allows for volume and texture to be easily added to the style with the right cut,” she explains.

Lamond says maintaining this look is extremely important. “Shorter looks require frequent care. They inherently lose shape more quickly, therefore styling could become more difficult into week four or five due to outgrown movement/layering.”

This long choppy hair with bangs was created by stylist Liana Le of NYC. “Movement and shape complement individual features through this invisible layering technique, leaving an endless range in creativity. This choppy hair with bangs is cool, yet remains truly feminine and soft,” says Le.

A fringe is a commitment. Be ready for great hair days, but also annoyingly bad ones.

Short and Texturized with Top Choppy Layers for Women Over 50

 @michelle.eileen.hair

This short pixie is a choppy and texturized women’s short haircut. It was handcrafted by hairstylist Michelle Champney of Noosa Heads, QLD. “What I like most about this pixie with a choppy top is all the length and texture we left around the perimeter of the cut.”

For the women that are interested in getting short choppy haircuts like this one,  Champney has a few things for you to keep in mind:

1. What’s your hair type? If you have straight hair or minimal wave, this short choppy pixie is fairly easy style for you. If you have curly, unruly, frizzy hair, this is not an achievable look without a LOT of work.

2. Face shape and side profile are always something to be taken into consideration when trying a new style. These short cuts don’t leave any room to hide behind. Make sure you’re ready for that! You also want to select a hairstylist that is experienced with short length of cuts. A trained stylist will understand how to balance out the haircut to bring symmetry to the face and profile.

3. Products are a must with this style! Without products, you’ll end up with a shapeless look. Use a texturizing paste to separate and define the hair. Depending on your hair type, Champney would also recommend a root volumizer for the crown.

4. Your lifestyle plays a huge factor in whether or not this look is right for you. This is a fairly easy look to take care of, but it still requires about ten minutes of work in the morning if you start from wet hair. Another thing to consider is if you mind having hair on your face. This gives it a soft yet edgy look. However, if you hate that feeling and are always pulling your hair back off your face, this might not be the style for you.

5. Expect to be in the salon every five to six weeks to maintain this cut. Short haircuts tend to need frequent trims to keep them in shape.

Cool Choppy Blonde Layered Bob

 @marci_and_the_mane

This choppy bob was created by stylist Marci Jameson Krachie of San Diego, CA.

If you want to wear it messy, Krachie recommends a product like Sail or Rockaway by R+Co that lets you air dry using your natural texture. “This choppy layered bob is perfect for girls who love to air dry,” she adds.

Playful and Wavy Choppy Bob for Fine Hair

 @karihaywardhairdesign

This wavy choppy bob for fine hair was created by hairdresser Kari Hayward of Salem, OR.

“You can do so many versions of this haircut to best suit you. You can make it a choppy a-line lob, maybe square, or play with the layering, or even add a fringe. I feel that as long as you keep those front corners in the perimeter it will be on-trend and flatter all face shapes,” she explains.

Most importantly,  Hayward says you will need to style this short cut with a curling iron, wand, or flat iron to create those beachy waves.  “I will always cut the bob with precision on the perimeter to allow for a straight look, but I feel that it will always look best with those undone curls.”

Short, fine-haired women love it because it can really make their hair appear thicker. With thick hair, you can cut out a lot of weight in the interior to make it feel lighter.

Keep scrolling through our slideshow and note that each choppy wavy bob has some sort of texture to it. Then pick your favorites to show your stylist.
