This very round style has short convex layers and weight in the crown. The edge is softened to give a piece-y feel and then lots of texture is added to help unlock natural wave.

For a smoothed-forward style, run a flat iron over the surface of dry hair and then piece the edge with texture cream.

This very round style has short convex layers and weight in the crown. The edge is softened to give a piece-y feel and then lots of texture is added to help unlock natural wave.

Apply texture cream to damp hair and diffuse dry to help activate natural wave. Apply a lighter texture paste to piece the wispy bits around your face.

This ultra short, asymmetric and geometric cut is chiseled out around the face. Long bits on the sides add a feminine touch while a tapered back hugs the head and elongates the neckline.

Mix leave-in conditioner and smoothing balm and apply onto towel-dried hair before flat wrapping your hair against your scalp in varied directions while blow-drying. Add a small amount of styling lotion to your palms and rub over the surface to smooth your hair into place.

A short bob with an asymmetrical quality and a very strong fringe and then applied a brilliant red violet color-blocked effect. 

Framesi Light Sparkling Mousse was cocktailed with Identity Hairforce straightening gel and applied all over before blow-drying with a small round brush. Carter finished this smooth look with Framesi Identity Shine On, a light pomade.

This ultra-short fade ends with a barely-there Fauxhawk on top. Fun star designs were carved into one side for a youthful vibe.

Apply leave-in conditioner on wet strands before allowing hair to air dry. Layer on pomade and styling gel are layered on while finger-styling your hair into place.

An impish crop with very fun color, this super-short coif was left with some length on top and in front for versatility.

Work a small amount of smoothing balm through before rough-drying and then mist with shine spray and piece with pomade while finger-styling.

Tiara’s long, dark, one-color hair was cropped short into a slightly longer modernized Pixie. This very feminine short look involves fringy pieces at the sides and in the bangs with lots of texture and soft movement through the inside.  Pon warmed up her base color and then highlighted through the top for added texture and yet more movement.

A finger’s length was left around the sides and back for this cute cut with more length on top for styling versatility.

After applying a thermal protectant and curl-enhancing lotion or foam and air-dry. Take small sections of dry hair and curl each around a small iron. Tease hair at the root for volume and coax the length upward with your fingers for a plume-like effect on top.
