Having wavy hair means having lots of natural movement and texture. If that’s you, then you want a haircut that celebrates your waves, not one that fights them. Take a break from heat styling and let your wavy mane do its thing (with the help of the right products, of course).
Not only is this hair type incredibly versatile, but it also looks especially flattering with shorter lengths—think of all that extra bounce. That’s exactly why so many wavy-haired people end up going short.
Whether you’ve got fine, medium, or thick tresses, there is a short, wavy hairstyle that’s right for you. To prove it, we reached out to hairstylists Melanie Bolton and Trey Gillen for their industry insight and expert advice. From piece-y pixies to tousled bobs, these are best cuts and styles to suit your every wavy hair need.
