Get The Look:  Short Hairstyles at Shape Hair Design in Teddington

Are you stuck in a rut when it comes to your hair?  If you've been wearing the same hairstyle for the past decade, then it might be time for a change.  If you are ready for a short hairstyle, there are plenty of great looks to choose from, as you can see from our selection of sizzling short hairstyles below!   

The stylists at Shape Hair Design in Teddington offer complimentary consultations where we can assess your hair, facial features, sense of style and personality to come up with some hairstyles that will suit you!  

French-Inspired Pixie Cuts

Kris Jenner certainly knows what suits her and this pixie hairstyle works beautifully with her heart-shaped face.  For this look, ask your stylist to create a traditional classic pixie hairstyle but with longer hair on the top.  To give your hairstyle a 'continental vibe' wear your hairstyle slightly messy with tousled layers for an undone style.  

The Heartthrob Bob

Is it a short crop or a bob? Think Cameron Diaz in There’s Something about Mary and Gwyneth Paltrow in Sliding Doors and you get the idea!  The Heartthrob Bob takes its inspiration from the hairstyles of the 1990s and offers a cool mixture of short hair at the nape of the neck, with a cheekbone skimming bob around the sides!  It's choppy and layered and should ideally be worn a little tousled.

The Modern Diana Haircut

For this short hairstyle, we are taking inspiration from the 1980s and the late Princess Diana!  This is a versatile and low maintenance hairstyle which has longer layers, lots of volume, and - most importantly - a side parting.  It can be worn smooth, slicked back or with some messy volume.  

Quiffed Short Hairstyles

Comedian and author Dawn French has ditched the glossy bob in favour of this modern short hairstyle with quiff.  The dark hair colour has also gone as our favourite funny lady embraces her natural grey hair. With its long layers, this short hairstyle looks incredibly modern and looks fantastic with a quiffed fringe.
