Short wavy hair styles. Go anywhere. Do anything. Look great.

They'll go the distance with you. They'll rise to the occasion, whatever you're up to.

A wavy short style can be delightfully casual with its softly tousled hair and a hint of disorder. It gives you an air of friendliness and fun. As long as you remember to smile now and then. No hair style will save you from looking like you just ate a lemon.

Maintenance is a bit of a mixed bag. If your wavy, short hair cut is based on a natural wave, there's not a lot you'll need to do to look after it. That's on a daily basis. As your hair grows you will have to go back to the salon for a trim every four or six weeks. But that's the same for any short hair style.

Women often choose short wavy hair styles precisely because of this casualness and ease of maintenance. But these same casual styles can can be fantastic on a formal night out.

If you team a wavy, short hair cut with an evening gown, jewellery, make up, perfume, accessories, the whole arsenal, you'll have a presence that even the most glitzy updo can't upstage.

It's hard to go past a wavy short hair style on a night out. That's what men find, anyway. They get stopped by the look.

The reason? Short hair with waves is not only soft, cute and feminine, it's interesting. To all that high fashion your short wavy hair adds just enough disorder to spice up the mix. Like you might have a surprise or two lurking somewhere.

It's that concept of juxtaposition again. Take two very different ideas and put them next to each other. It creates an impact. In this case, it's the glamorous female dressed to kill, the whole nine yards, who's also wearing a cheeky, short or even tomboyish hair cut.

Having your neck and shoulders exposed doesn't hurt, either. It's like having an updo, but without the preciousness.

Wavy short hairstyles can team up with just about anything in your wardrobe.

So after sweeping the field at the prince's ball, you're ready for a lazy weekend or a fun night out, drinks after work, meeting friends for coffee. And shopping!

And there's another advantage to short wavy hair styles.

They can gain entrance to the business world, where curlier women find doors closed in their faces.

Waves are in the same family as curls, of course. But curls frighten businessmen. They make them think of wildness and lack of control.

Short wavy hair styles are different. They slip in under the corporate radar because, well, they're not curly. They're ... wavy.

And they do look so lovely with business outfits.
