If you are a busy person who wants to look great all day long, who doesn’t have much time to style your hair or go to hair stylists all the time, this roundup is for you as we’ve gathered the coolest short low-maintenance haircuts ever! Why short? Shorter hair is easier and faster to style (and maintain, too!). Let’s take a look at some ultimately low-maintenance solutions, and then haircuts themselves.
What To Avoid If You Want Low-Maintenance Hair?
First of all, bold and blonde hair colors – these are extremely high-maintenance! The best idea will be to wear your natural color or to get a balayage that can be worn up to a year and still look nice. Second, straight fringe of any kind – it will grow out covering your eyes and face. Third, any haircuts with complicated styling, without which they look bad on you, for example, butterfly haircut. Fourth, invest in a good shampoo and conditioner as they will guarantee your hair looks nice without going to professionals all the time. Don’t damage your hair with sun and sea water, which will also spoil your coloring. Forget too difficult shapes and straight lines as our hair grows out unevenly.
Pixies And Bixies
A pixie is a perfect solution if you are ready to show off your face as the shorter hair you get, the more your face is highlighted. This is the best idea for those who have naturally textured hair, so you get volume any time, just wash and go. Some bangs will let you personalize the cut a little bit, and when they grow out, they will be basic face-framing hair. As for bixies, these are a solution between a pixie and a bob, and this is a nice way to try on a short bob without growing out too much hair or try on a long pixie without cutting everything off. A bixie is longer and closer to a bob, so you can wear it with straight hair, too. Need texture? Go for razor cut ends. Want interest? Choose face-framing or layered bangs.

Bobs And Long Bobs
A blunt bob is perhaps the most low-maintenance haircut ever. This is a perfect cut if you don’t like to cut your hair often, it will just turn into a lob. You can style it in various ways, and any hair type will look nice in a bob. The important trick is not to go for classic or Birkin bangs – nothing in the center that will grow out and cover your eyes, only side bangs and curtain ones. Bottleneck bangs are lovely, too, if you wear them layered with curtain ones.
Like short hair? Go for jaw-line, lip-line and chin-length ideas, with a blunt cut they will look French chic, and with razor ends it will be badass. Longer, midi bobs are also welcome, especially if you have straight or wavy thick hair – forget your styler and just create a volume with your hands.
