If you’ve been using your long hair as a security blanket, this is your sign to finally let it go! A bold chop is seriously the best way to refresh your look.
I found some absolutely gorgeous styles that prove going short is the best decision you’ll make all year.

This style is perfect for showing off your facial features and can definitely help you look super confident.

Let’s be real, the downside to long hair can be frizz and how wild it gets. A pixie is the perfect solution.
You can chop it down, keep some length on top, and finish it with a nice side bang for a look that’s tailored and so gorgeous.
4. Long Lob

Saying farewell to your long hair is a big step, but saying hello to a gorgeous long lob makes it so much easier.

7. Shaved Head

You know those times when you just need a fresh start? Sometimes that means shaving all your hair off.
I say embrace a shaved head and get ready to rock your new short hairstyle!

Coloring your hair can sometimes cause damage, and a fresh cut can be the only fix. But that doesn’t have to be a bad thing!

12. Layered Pixie

Ready to take your hair from boring and ordinary to something super stylish and amazing?
Adding a lot of layers into your pixie, plus some beautiful highlights, will really make it pop.
13. Short to Shorter

Sure, you might think your mid-length hair is doing the job, but I’m telling you, once you cut off a few more inches and throw in some layers, you will completely fall in love with your short hair.
14. Sexy Bob

Okay, this bob is so sexy and just screams style. For a glam look, keep your bangs long and add waves all over.
15. Angled

An angled cut is such a smart move. It keeps your hair a little longer in the front, just in case you want something left to play with.
16. Lob

When it comes to going short, a lob is always a great idea. A lob is so in style right now and still gives you a little length if you’re making a huge cut.
Trust me, the minute you go for a lob, you will fall head over heels for it.
17. Girl Next Door Lob

Having princess hair is awesome but let’s be honest, it can be hard work. A gorgeous lob, on the other hand, is super simple and absolutely perfect.

A little secret: cutting your hair is actually really good for it. You can leave your color natural but give your hair a nice chop to keep it healthy.
