Have you been looking for a fun new hairstyle to try? A short layered haircut may be just what you are looking for! Layers are so trendy right now, and they look great on short hair.
Before you cut your hair, you should consider a few things. First, how short do you actually want to go? There are plenty of super short layered hairstyles out there, such as the pixie cut. However, there are also some longer (yet still short) layered hair looks that you might like better, such as a bob.
Also, you should think about whether or not you will want to add some bangs to your look. Bangs can be a fun way to spice up your hair look, especially if you have layered hair!
So, if you are curious about what kind of short, layered hair looks you should try, check out this list of 17 super cute short, layered hairstyles.
