Thinking About a Short Cut for Your Natural Hair?

I've been itching for a drastic hair change for a few months now. Contrary to what some might believe, I find short hair incredibly feminine and sexy. Back in college, I actually rocked a short cut. My hair was relaxed then, but I loved how the style framed my face. Now, it's surprisingly harder for me to take the plunge. I guess I'm worried short hair might be more high-maintenance than long hair, but I'm probably just overthinking it. While I'm still debating whether to befriend the scissors, I'm constantly drooling over all the gorgeous short hair looks flooding my Instagram feed daily. And that's exactly what sparked the idea for this article...

In my opinion, short hair needs to be cut regularly, which is why I'm hesitant; it all depends on what you want, of course. If you want to let it grow, that's not an issue. For those looking for inspiration, tell me what you think of the photos below. The majority of these hairstyles are "tapered cuts"; this style has been super trendy since 2015, it's the return of the 90's...

More precisely, what is a tapered cut?

It's simply a tapered cut, short on the sides, long on top, or even very long!

You'll see that this hairstyle can be achieved in different ways, shorter or longer on the sides or top, curly or not, with or without color – it's up to you to decide, to play with your hair! :

Janelle Monae, with short hair, it's a first. For those who don't dare to cut their hair, there are other solutions like a wig or a weave, or even a faux tapered cut as below:

The catch is finding the right hair salon to achieve this hairstyle! Let's be honest, it can quickly turn into a nightmare if your hairdresser messes it up!

After a quick search, here are 2 salons that seem to create this fabulous cut perfectly:
