Useful Tips
Such a female haircut obliges you to visit the master at least once every month and a half, since short hair grows quickly, and the hairstyle changes greatly.
- An abundance of styling products is unacceptable. Such a haircut is free and light, and varnish and foam in large quantities will spoil the effect.
- Light makeup and beautiful earrings are mandatory attributes of a chic appearance with such a haircut, as it opens up the face and ears as much as possible.
- Highlighted ends will help highlight the beauty of your haircut and hide gray hair. This hair coloring is quite difficult to accomplish, but the effect will be amazing.
- When choosing a garcon haircut, you should monitor the posture, since the stoop against its background becomes too noticeable.
