If it has been on your mind to chop off your tresses, check out our list of the best short straight hairstyles.

So, here are some hairstyles inspired by 10 celebrities for your consideration.

Scroll down at your peril because you willl be craving a trip to the salon once you are done.

1. Asymmetrical Bob

Katy Perry’s side-swept blue bob is just wonderful. Sporting a blunt bob that frames her face beautifully, this classic hairstyle with subtle layers can be tweaked to suit any face shape. However, since this polished hairstyle grows out rapidly, make sure you visit your stylist every 5 weeks to keep your hairstyle in perfect shape. While opting for a new, bright shade – ask your hairdresser to choose a colour that complements your skin tone.

2. Long Blonde Bob

Actress Julianne Hough rocked her super-sleek and sharp angular long bob with side-swept bangs. Known for further elongating a rounder face, the side swept fringe gave her edgy hairstyle a romantic touch and softened her features.

To recreate this chic and smooth look, apply an anti-frizz serum to straighten your hair. Once straightened, mist hairspray to tame flyways hair.

3. Pixie Cut

Pixie cut is undoubtedly the best short haircuts for women with straight hair. Emma Watson’s pixie is a bold step towards a poised and confident personal style. Equally chic and feminine, this combed, simple and easy-to-recreate bob is a great in-between style during the growing out period of a pixie cut. To keep your hair in shape and style flawless, visit your salon for regular trims.

4. Short Pixie

Over the years, actress Ginnifer Goodwin has worn her hair in a lot of different ways, but this retro pixie is the most classy and sophisticated of them all. The actress looks boyish-ly radiant with her poker-straight bob, stylish side-swept parting, and subtle layers. Maintain this look with a straightening iron and a good supply of smoothing anti-frizz hairspray.

5. Long And Side Sweeping

Anne’s flirty style looks fresh and modern ending at the cheekbones with a low side-parting. This style looks incredible on the former The Princess Diaries star Anne Hathaway. We love how her side sweeping hair falls on her cheekbones, drawing attention to her eyes and facial features. Not to forget Anne’s auburn hair colour, something we’d like to recreate in the near future.

6. Sweeping Bangs

Here, actress Sami Gayle sports a look with shorter bangs and sides, similar to that of Anne Hathaway. We adore the way her bangs sweep across her face, directing attention to her beautiful face features. A perfect everyday pixie hairstyle, the actress looks charming with her neat and simple-to-create-maintain hairdo.

Tip: Opt for natural hair colour, a must if you’re thinking of getting a short cut.

Her below-the-chin hair length and the sweeping bangs are perfect for her round face shape. Not to forget, we equally love her platinum blonde hair colour. To maintain the look and colour in check, visit your stylist for the regular trims and touch-ups.
