Anna Faris and Amy Madigan
 
Seen in these photos, Anna Faris and Amy Madigan are wearing short hairstyles that fall at the longer end of 'short.' Yet the two looks are remarkably different.
 
Note how Anna’s fine, pale blonde locks are gently tapered at the ends to create soft edges. These soft, clean lines flatter and frame her face, providing a clean, professional look that is also chic and stylish.
