Inspirational Short Hairstyle Ideas for 20-Somethings

Short Hairstyle Idea #1: Feathered Layers

Draw inspiration from the feathered looks of the ’70s and put a modern spin on it. Short haircuts with feathered layers give your hair lots of movement. This look is ideal for 20-somethings with thinner hair types who are after a cut that gives the illusion of fuller hair. Just remember to tame things down with a serum, like Nexxus Humectress Encapsulate Serum, to keep the frizzies at bay.

Short Hairstyle Idea #2: Versatile Haircuts

Apparently we millennials have a hard time making up their mind, or just get bored very easily. If this sounds like you, settle on a haircut that allows you to be flexible with your styling options. Who says you have to stick with just one look?

Short Hairstyle Idea #3: Free-Flowing Side Lob

You know that point in your twenties when you’re looking for a cut that makes you look your age? We’ve been there. If you’re looking for a more grown-up look, opt for this free-flowing side lob. A bit of texturizing wax rubbed through, like Bed Head by TIGI Manipulator Matte, helps give a bit of tousle.
