Curly Hair Short

Wear your curly hair short?

Why not?

The pictures on this page show you don't have to be any particular age to take advantage of curly short hair styles.

Short curly hair styles aren't for everyone, but age isn't one of the considerations that would stop you wearing them.

Short curly hair styles are subject to the same guidelines that apply to any sort of short hair cut for women.

Most fundamentally of all, make sure your face shape is okay for short hair styles. You can check that with the free face shape wizard here.

Face shape aside, the pictures below demonstrate that you don't have to be any particular age to take advantage of short curly hairstyles.

Naturally curly German actresses Maria Schrader and Katja Riemann bring their short curly hair cuts into the same picture. They're pretty glamorous, but they certainly weren't born yesterday.

One actress is dark, the other blonde. Their curls are different, the hair styles are different, yet both are curly and short. And both of these women look good.

Maria Schrader appears with her curly hair short in more than one picture on this page. In fact, there are three very different pictures of her, all involving hair that's both short and curly.

A very young Adriana Lima easily shows how pretty a short curly hairstyle can look. There's nothing expensive, sophisticated or difficult here. Just natural curly hair in a cut that suits her face beautifully. And her face, of course, can handle short hair styles.

If you get those elements right - a stylist who cuts curly hair properly, with the understanding and respect it deserves, and a hair style shaped to enhance your face, any girl or woman with curly hair can have a look that delights them.

Marilyn Monroe's famous platinum blonde hair style is strongly recalled in one of the curly hair short style pictures below. Whether you call them short curly hair styles or medium is always debatable, but the allure of Marilyn Monroe hair styles is indelibly etched in modern minds.

And they hold endless fascination for women.

A picture of New Zealander Kylie Bax reveals the polished, elegant side of curly hair short cuts. It's not a close up photo of her hair, unfortunately, but it does show very clearly the use of a tousled short curly hair cut in a chic and stylish setting.

She might be sitting beside a giant flower pot but the chair is crafted, the dress is expensive and the shoes are stiletto.

It's a recurring theme - using curly hair short styles to send messages that are deliberately mixed and meant to be interpreted. Kylie Bax with her expensive, short dress and equally short but tousled hair style is one example.

Another is Eva Erzigova, in a picture where her curly, wavy blonde hair is short but built high and very unruly. The short curly hair style, with its implications of wildness, is matched with an elegant, fashionable outfit and designer brooch.

These are messages for women who want the best of both worlds - to be seen, not only as passionate and sexy, but as classy and expensive as well.

Just to back up the sexy message of Eva's short curly hair cut, in case you missed it, her expensive outfit is left open and pushed off one shoulder.

Karolina Kurkova conveys a similar message, not quite as blatantly. She's the one in a black and white dress with a neckline that plunges to her waist. Her curly hair short and very unruly - mostly short, anyway, with wild, escaping curls at behind her neck.

The background is white, to emphasize the crispness of the dress and to give an ethereal, almost unearthly lightness to her short, tousled curly hair.

The implication? She's a goddess come down to earth. But she's sexy (that's the curly hair short style) and she's got a cool dress.

Same girl, different picture - a stark white background again, a white suit, dark make up round her eyes. It all adds emphasis to Karolina's curly hair, short, pale and blonde, accented now with low lights.

Apart from sex and America, I don't know what she's selling.

And there's a second picture of Eva Erzigova wearing short curly hair.

This time she's a very yellow blonde but the hair style is even more unruly. It flies out behind her in a way that suggests, not so much that it's caught in the wind, but rather that she's been sleeping on it.

True bed hair and yet another passionate suggestion for women thinking about trying their curly hair short.
