Barber shops aren’t just for men. There are popular barbershop hairstyles that are all the rage among women this year. You’ll see women wearing short haircuts from pixie cuts, undercuts, to buzz cuts. If you’re not sure that a short cut is for you, there are steps to test it out. We’ll give you a few tips on what styles are raging and how to test the water without diving in.

The undercut is a hairstyle that’s very versatile for both men and women. The length of your hair up top can range from short to long, and the undercut doesn’t have to circle your head entirely. Choose to do one side or all. Add a ‘cat scratch’ or two in the undercut to complete the look.

The women’s buzz cut isn’t just for the movies anymore. Many, may remember Demi Moore’s role in G.I. Jane as one of the many memorable short women haircuts on the big screen. However, women buzz cuts are trending now, and they are looking incredibly beautiful. We’ve come a long way and perfected the cut with added designs, sharp lines as well as color to complete the look.

One-Sided Shaves are hairstyles where one side of your head is shaved and the other is left longer. You can choose a pixie cut that flips, or long hair. Whichever you choose, you’ll be sure to add a new flare to your look.

However, if you’re still not ready to take the plunge with short hair, you can choose to have a long hair undercut. The undercut will remain hidden underneath your hair in the back, until you put your hair up into a ponytail or bun. And, the designs that can be shaved into your undercut are endless.
