32 Short Hairstyles to Try in 2019

RX_1812_Short Hairstyles for 2019_Full Bangs

No matter the season, there’s always a case to make for short hair. During the winter, short hair works better while you’re rocking chunky turtlenecks and trying to avoid accidentally catching rogue long strands in your jacket zipper. (Ouch.) But come summertime, that sweaty neck isn’t going to cool itself off, especially when the mercury just keeps rising. Luckily, there are more than enough trendy short hairstyles to try in 2019 that you won’t be getting bored with anytime soon. This year, it’s about stepping outside of your comfort zone. We’ve got the “glass hair” trend bringing ultra-shiny, smooth, and silky straight cuts to the table; and we’re seeing all types of fringe-fabulous bangs take off, too. From layered lobs to blunt bobs, classic crops to perfect pixies, these hairstyles for short hair will have you ready to grab those shears. Well, maybe leave that part to your stylist.

These styles are all about creating volume.

Straight Lob

@cameron.rains

The lob-length cut will never go out of style. Glass hair—a.k.a. shiny, straight, silky strands—is trending well into 2019, and this example masters it.

Textured Asymmetrical Cut

@anhcotran

The asymmetry is cool enough to revamp a classic hairstyle, the long bob; while the look gets even more stylish after ramping up the texture.

Curly Shoulder Cut

@curlmaestro

Don’t let length weigh you down, curly girls. Short cuts let spirals shine.

5 of 30

Side-Swept Crop

@emilyandersonstyling

Don’t be afraid to make the chop, especially when you’re going with a sassy side-swept cut like this. Shorter in the back, it makes styling a breeze.

Fringed Shoulder Cut

@cwoodhair

No matter your face shape, there’s a bang style that’ll look killer with the short cut of your dreams. Here’s our guide.

Glass Bob

@cashlawlesshair

Smooth, silky, and straight, this glassy bob thinks frizz is so last year. It perfectly grazes the shoulders, which is ultra-flattering.

8 of 30

A-Line Bob

@styled_by_carolynn

Two words: Babe. Alert. We'd bet this bob knows a good time.

Long Fringe Layers

@lacyredway

This cut hits those cheekbones like nobody’s business. What a fabulous way to kick off the New Year, we think.

10 of 30

Natural Crop

@vernonfrancois

Who else thinks natural texture should always win? Let those curls run wild this year.

11 of 30

Bold Blunt Cut

@chrisweberhair

Head into the New Year with a fiery bob. Between the bright copper color and the thick blunt ends, this cut makes a statement.

12 of 30

Collarbone Cut

@chadwoodhair

Don’t stress with styling or upkeep because this collarbone-grazing cut has you covered. Long layers add movement and texture.

13 of 30

90s-Inspired Bob

@salsalhair

Without a doubt, the bob ruled the 1990s. From slightly A-line bobs to blunt chin-length bobs, this short cut has us standing at attention.

14 of 30

Choppy Crop

@emilyandersonstyling

Nothing complements icy platinum blonde like a classic pixie cut. It takes the fresh pop of color to new heights.

15 of 30

Side-Swept Lob

@romeufelipe

Can layers and bangs really make a huge difference? Yes. Yes, they can. This cut is sassier than Julia Sugarbaker.

16 of 30

Shaggy Layers

@justinandersoncolor

We need these choppy layers and bangs in our life, stat. It's got major signature style potential.

17 of 30

Pinned-Back Bob

@natalieannehair

Everyone’s going crazy for primped and polished hair right now, and we’re here for it. Expect to see a lot of glassy bobs like these in the coming year.

18 of 30

Voluminous Lob

@romeufelipe

Keep that volume coming, please. Layered but not too choppy, this cut frames the face in a most flattering way.

19 of 30

Soft Shag

@chrisjones_hair

This year, place your bets on texture and volume with a shag haircut. Cutting curly hair while it’s still dry helps achieve the perfect shape, especially when cutting a layered style.

20 of 30

Angled Lob

@theredlipstickstylist

First stop of 2019: the salon for a fresh color and cut. This angled lob paired with a fiery copper hue? That’ll do.

21 of 30

Boyish Pixie

@jessiedaoudhair

Be bold and brave in 2019—with a super short, boyish pixie. It lets those cheekbones do all the talking.

22 of 30

Retro Shoulder Cut

@maneaddicts

That blowout, though. We’re fully embracing bouncy volume and curled ends.

23 of 30

Vintage Lob

@cwoodhair

Back with the retro vibes. This shoulder-grazing lob is the perfect transition length when you’re not ready to go super short.

24 of 30

Volume-Packed Texture

@lacyredway

Keep the texture train rolling all year long, as far as we’re concerned. This cropped cut gives tight coils room to breathe.

25 of 30

Asymmetrical Long Bob

@chadwoodhair

All we have to say is…sign us up! An asymmetrical cut is flattering on all face shapes, and it can easily be dressed up for a party.

26 of 30

Textured Shag

@chrisjones_hair

Can we get just a hint of this texture? Please? You’ll never be bored with this cut.

27 of 30

Textured Medium Cut

@beckym_hair

If you think dry texturizing spray is life, this cut is on your team. The length is perfect for those afraid to make the chop all at once.

28 of 30

Relaxed Waves

@sunniebrook

Feel fresh and fabulous with a collarbone-length cut fixed up with polished waves. Pair it with a deep side part, and voilá.

29 of 30

Full Bangs

@cutyourhair

We’re not sure which we love more: the full fringe or the rosy brown hair color. Either way, we’ll take it.
