40 Best Edgy Haircuts Ideas to Upgrade Your Usual Styles
Spring is the time of changes or renewal, and sensible female nature can't help responding to them. So, it's the right moment to refresh your haircut, isn't it? So, what options do you have? You can go for a completely new style or introduce a trendy twist to your usual cut that you have been wearing for years. To consider which way to go, it won't be superfluous to be aware of the current hair trends. Among others the runways of the biggest fashion shows presented lots of messy "bedhead" styles made on the basis of shag haircuts with rough edges. We have gathered some of the best ideas here, so, you are welcome to have a look.
Chic, Nasty, Funky Edgy Haircuts
They reflect a strong personality and may be opposed to feminine romantic styles with soft flowing lines and sleek textures. Rough haircuts show the other side of femininity, and that's pretty cool that a woman can be so different just changing a haircut. Funky haircuts blend harmoniously into the modern casual style. And they do also look hot for special occasions. Cropped edges of your favorite timeless chin-length bob or long edgy bangs with a short pixie are an excellent way to look fresh, young and in trend. Sharp rich layers and playing with textures add a special ultra-modern flair that adjusts your looks for what is currently on the fashion peak.
If you stick to medium or long haircuts, there's also a way to make them edgier and chicer accordingly. Below there are examples of edgy short haircuts, medium-length and longer cuts with shaggy outlines which you may adopt as an idea for your big spring renewal.
