The "Spoon Shape" collection from Hair Arena Intercoiffure celebrates curves. These short hairstyles predominantly feature smooth finishes and softened edges, emphasizing curvy silhouettes as the main theme.

Whether it's spherical bob cuts or concave napes accentuating an over-directed and elongated pixie cut style, the curves are unmistakable and steal the spotlight.

In these styles, hair color serves as the canvas upon which these shapes and elements are displayed rather than playing active roles as styling elements. Whether it's pale, cool, champagne blonde, or plum-tinted ebony, the color harmonizes seamlessly with the carved style of the hair.

Clean Bob

Begin with your classic bob, letting the straight, smooth hair fall neatly into place. Consider adding a touch of texturing along the edges of the cut and perhaps some undercutting to ensure a sleek appearance along the nape. You can use a razor tool to soften the ends of the strands framing the face and along the jawline, providing a counterbalance to the clean, sharp edge of the horizontal fringe.

The accompanying photos showcase both the "clean look" and "soft look" styles for this classic cut. The vibrant purple tint adds visual interest to the otherwise dark hair without overwhelming the overall appearance.

Fringe Encircling One Eye

Short haircut with tapered side and nape sections

Here, we observe an elongated and asymmetrical layered short hairstyle where the side and nape sections smoothly taper to softened edges, accentuating curves. The weight of this cut is concentrated in the crown section and along the parietal ridge, while the off-center "burst" parting creates a soft curve of hair within the fringe and on the right side of the style.

Speaking of the fringe, it is cut in a sharply twisting "S" shape to frame one eye while creating a sheer veil for the other. The ends of the fringe section are heavily textured to achieve a feathery finish and seamlessly blend into the sides of the cut. Both the bulkier right side and the slimmer left side are feathered with a razor tool to create soft tapers framing the cheek and jaw. The soft, champagne blonde color adds its own touch of softness and provides a classy glow to the hair.

Neck-Length Bob

The golden blonde tresses of this neck-length bob provide a sunny canvas for a sassy look and style. With an angled parting and a side-swept fringe, the hair forms a large, silky curtain that freely swings around the face.

The gently layered ends of the hair are styled to create a spherical silhouette, complementing the slightly angled features of the model's face. Light texturing along the edges of the style ensures that while the cut maintains clean lines, the edges remain soft and natural.

Angled Bob

This is coiffure as couture. The warm auburn tones of the hair color lend an inviting glow to the satiny finish of the style. The cut is an asymmetrical, angled bob with a concave nape area that snugly embraces the curve where the back of the skull merges with the neck. The nape perimeter is softly shaped into an oval, and the nape layers seamlessly blend into the weight line of the bob's angle.

An angled parting on the left leads into side-swept bangs and the shorter side of the asymmetrical style. The edges along the sides are meticulously textured and shaped to create a tailored sweep that frames the face. It's a style and cut tailored to the individual - there's no "cookie-cutter look" here.

Pixie Style Haircut

Pixie cut hair with layering and texturing

This hairstyle is closely related to the angled bob of the previous look, albeit not a traditional angled bob cut. It's asymmetrical, deeply tapered, featuring over-directed elements, and custom-tailored to suit the individual. The base is a pixie-style cut, with the perimeter following around the ears and extending low on the neck. The sides taper along the cheek, and the edges of the perimeter are point-cut to lend a soft texture to the lines and angles of the cut.

The curved fringe arches over the left eye and sweeps down across the right brow, emphasizing the asymmetry of the style. With the bulk of the hair concentrated in the crown and along the parietal ridge, there's ample hair to play with during styling, as evident in the photos.

The first photo showcases a sleek, refined finish, ideal for elegant functions, while the second photo demonstrates how easily the look can be energized. Taking advantage of the layering and texturing, a touch of sculpting paste can be added and worked through the hair for a more dynamic appearance.

Disheveled Neck-Length Bob

If something about this hairstyle looks familiar, don't be surprised. A quick glance back at hairstyle three reveals the base cut for this energized version of the neck-length bob. The multi-directional styling enhances the interplay of light within the hair color, adding depth and fun.

The disheveled look evokes an image of carefree abandon and slightly tawdry ravishment that is playful. The combined styling changes transform this look from good-girl sweet to bad-girl heat in almost a single, bold head shake.
