Choosing a haircut may seem like NBD (it’s just a haircut, after all), right? Um, we hate to burst your bubble, but getting the right haircut for your hair texture is so important and we can’t stress this enough.
Rather than choosing what’s in trend or what your favourite celebrity got, you should pick a haircut that flatters your natural hair texture. With summer around the corner, a haircut that demands minimum upkeep could also be a good idea, just saying.
If you are clueless about what haircut is best for your hair texture, we have got you covered. Here are three low maintenance haircut ideas each for every hair type—straight, curly and wavy. Scroll down.
Straight hair
1. Blunt
This is not only the hottest haircut of the season, but our favourite pick for straight hair. The single length mane looks fab on poker-straight hair and there’s no denying the fact that it is insanely low maintenance too. Plus, you don’t have to chop off a whole lot of your hair to get this look; just 1-2 inches would do it.
2. 70s feathered
Looking to add some drama to your boring hair? The 70’s chic and quirky feathered haircut might be your solution. It adds tons of texture and movement to your straight strands and gives you a red-carpet ready look without any further styling.
3. Cool pixie
If you want to go for a bold, short hairdo, we have just the right one for your straight hair. Think about it. What could be easier to maintain and manageable than a pixie haircut? That’s right. And, it looks so cool and surely checks all the boxes for a summer hair makeover.
Wavy hair
1. Lob
You’ve already got beach waves in your hair (lucky, you). Simply make it chicer by chopping it off till your shoulders and there, you’ve got the sexiest look of all times. A wavy mane grazing the collarbone has got to be the most glamourous hair look out there.
2. Long layers
Got super long, soft waves? Enhance your gorgeous waves with some layers… and well, that’s it. You can pull off literally any hairstyle from braids to buns to ponytail with layered waves and it will look effortlessly beautiful. Or, simply wear it down and it will still look lovely.
3. Shag cut
If you’ve chopped your wavy hair, simply add some face-framing bangs to it and your work is done. Styling it is super easy as well. Just brush it, run your fingers through your hair to give it some oomph and you’re ready. After all, the whole point is to keep it messy and unkempt.
Curly hair
1. Short crop
The upkeep of curly hair is not a joke. It takes hours to wash, detangle and style your twisted tresses. So, opt for a short crop and trust us, you will forget you have unmanageable frizzy locks until someone compliments you on your hotter-than-the-tropics style, of course.
2. Choppy layers
Choppy layers look stunning with curly hair and here’s proof. If you’ve got long spiral curls, spruce them up by adding some choppy and messy-looking layers. It also adds volume and makes your hair look fuller. Wear your hair in a side-swept part to get the 80’s big hair look.
3. Fringes
Don’t feel like really getting a haircut but still want to change up your curly hair look? Team your curls with some face-framing fringes. Believe it or not, fringe can amp up your hair game like nothing else, especially if you have a curly mane. Pick from curtain bangs, wispy or choppy bangs or side fringes to add the glam factor to your curls.
