The decision to go for the chop and have short and curly hair is always a brave one, but the reaction you will get from friends and family will be well worth it!
Here are some pictures of the most popular short hair styles at the moment.
Meg Ryan has shown that it is possible to have the same hairstyle, transcending both fashion and ageing, as she has found a look that suits her. This look was originally sported in Top Gun in 1986..
As someone with natural curly hair, Meg can choose to leave this style naturally wavy, or add some product and use a diffuser to really give her curls a boost.
This hairstyle looks great on Afro Caribbean hair too, and should be easy to maintain as the idea of the style is to look fun and relaxed, so for this style...let your curls roam free!
Which face shapes do naturally short hairstyles suit?
The great news is that short curly hairstyles suit any face shape!
Short, Curly Styles for 2012.
Gone are the ruler-measured straight hairstyles that we saw on the catwalks of Prada and Givenchy last year, as this summer is all about relaxed boho glamour. Think Elle Mcpherson and Charlize Theron, and add some highlights to allow the texture of the curls to be seen on darker hair.
Products such as salt water hair spray work brilliantly to add texture, but keep curls matt looking and natural.
The key is to experiment and be brave...Have fun!!

The great news is that short curly hairstyles suit any face shape!
- Heart-shaped face - Curly hair can look cute and playful
- Oval- shaped face - You can get away with any style so cut it short and experiment!
- Round-shaped face - Add height with more curls on the top than the side and this style will draw attention to your eyes and elongate your face.
- Square - Keep curls soft and big to balance out your fantastic strong jawline, and beware of too much product as you could find the style taking on too much of an 80's vibe!
