The classic page boy gets an exciting update with new texture around its edges. The asymmetrical bangs and a striking mix of light and dark hair colors are complemented by sharp points that can be styled into the face or spiked up for special effects.
 
The neck is graduated, and the main body of hair is finely layered to achieve a gorgeous round shape. This cut spans the spectrum from smooth and classy to punky, allowing you to pick your flavor of the day and use simple tricks and products to transform yourself in minutes.
 

Short Hair Spiked Up

Embrace your wild side with a spiked-up page boy. This cut, now with a trendy punk vibe, features sharp spikes on the crown, while the sides and back are textured with modeling paste and styled with wild, curved volume.
 
Two long accent strands follow the line of her jaw for an additional surprising effect. Caramel highlights layered into the brown base color make this look especially exciting.
 

Short and Classy

Short hair with a feathery razor-cut texture
 
Long top hair is layered thoroughly for volume and a dynamic fall. The cutting-edge feathery texture, created with a razor, keeps it soft. An asymmetrical fringe ends in a long point alongside her cheek, giving her an elegant flair, while the ruffled structure and messy volume keep things casual and sassy.
 
The hair colors include blonde tones with darker brown roots and a golden brown hue in between. These contrasts add a lively effect to the hair.
 

Styled Back

Easy short hairstyle for professional women
 
Dynamic look with hair that falls to the back
 
Being a little backwards can be stylish! The feathery short cut is now styled in the opposite direction and falls to the back in a stylish wave, generating great volume and a spirited dynamic.
 
The sides and neck are simple and narrow, focusing on the top hair, which is enhanced by highlights. The darker roots make the light effects stand out, and together the hair colors emphasize the movement and depth of the cut.
 
This beautiful styling offers effortless, casual elegance perfect for professional women who need a look that is beautiful in the office and fashionable at happy hour as well.
 

Simply Elegant

Bob hairstyle with curves around the base of the neck
 
Long bob for blonde hair with darker roots
 
Collarbone-length bob
 
This sophisticated bob features soft curves around the base of her neck and accentuates her face with an oval frame. The collarbone length is flattering and allows for many styling ideas, including ponytails and upstyles.
 
This elegant design displays simplicity with smooth styling and gentle movement. Layers cut with a razor add shape and movement. Her hair color looks natural with darker roots blended into gold and medium beige blonde lengths.
 

Natural Styling

Medium-length hair with natural styling
 
Manageable hair that barely touches the shoulders
 
Could you guess that this is the same haircut shown earlier in its sophisticated, smooth form? It’s even the same model! Now, styled naturally, the hairstyle transforms from ladylike to sensual with a hint of rock and roll. A side part creates pretty asymmetry, and disheveled waves speak for themselves.
 
The hair barely touches her shoulders, a perfect length for managing while enjoying the luxury of longer hair.
 

Romantic Revolution

Hairstyle with curls and a sleeker top
 
Brown hair with soft highlights
 
Imagine her floating across a flower-filled meadow or down the hallway of a grand mansion. This hairstyle, inspired by Gone With the Wind and Jane Austen, features beautiful curls emerging from a sleeker top.
 
Soft highlights in a golden caramel tone intensify the dimension of the curls, with a base color of chocolaty dark brown. A few layers provide volume and lightness, enhancing the development and endurance of the curls.
 

Romantic Updo

Updo with smoothed and rolled-up hair
 
So vintage and so beautiful! Unpretentious but utterly captivating. The formerly open curly style is now rolled up, tucked, and pinned into a gorgeous creation fit for a grand ballroom. Her hair is parted in the center and smoothed back, with a soft curve on the sides.
 
The lengths are rolled into small barrels and fastened invisibly with hairpins that match her hair color. Understated makeup in natural colors complements this hairstyle perfectly.
 

Cartoon Hero

Men's hairstyle with shaved sides
 
Hairstyle with lifted bangs for fashion-minded men
 
Remember Archie? Exaggerated looks in strong colors are often the trademark of our favorite drawn characters. ZV makes it easy for fashion-minded men to showcase their expressive side with shaved sides transitioning into a section of clipped short hair that wraps around the back of the head.
 
The top shows a strong contrast in length, with bangs lifted in a happy and feisty curve. His hair color is a dark copper red, perfectly complementing his freckles and light skin tone.
 

Glowing Copper

Men's hairstyle for a nerdy look
 
Men's hair with molded styling and a wave
 
An A-student with a twist. Nerdy looks are among the most coveted today, and what’s not to love about a well-groomed gent with some humor and great style? The striped bow tie is the ideal accessory for his clean short cut with molded styling.
 
Anti-frizz and modeling products keep the surface smooth and create the handsome wave in his combed-back bangs.
 

Creative Bangs

Men's hairstyle with lifted bangs
 
Contrasts create fashionable tension. This style features a mix of ruffled and strongly textured back hair against sleek, straight-up bangs. A small shaved stripe just above the ears adds an extravagant touch. This undercut is less than an inch wide but makes a huge impact.
 
The front is more than twice as long as the rest of the hair, which is about the same length all around. The rough part can be styled with fingers, but a fine-toothed comb is needed for the refined smoothness of the lifted fringe.
 

Controlled Chaos

Men's cut with a clipped perimeter
 
There is a method and strong design to his wild look. An undercut defines the sides, a short clipped perimeter keeps things traditional, and the longer hair on his crown is cut in a triangular shape, with the longest part in front. This is where convention ends and the fun begins.
 
His styling emphasizes shape and bets on heavy texture. A good styling cream textures the hair and keeps the long strands falling over his forehead in true Hollywood style. Forever the rebel, he maintains refined style.
 

Snappy Smooth

Smooth combed-back hairstyle for men
 
Men's hairstyle for a dashing look
 
His dashing look is the result of impeccable precision in a cut that uses a calculated and consistent point-cut technique. The hair flows without harsh lines or stark contrasts—smooth and seductive with extreme simplicity.
 
The hair gradually increases in length from the short neck and back. The distinct shape will be more visible in the alternative styling of the next image, but here he uses the smooth, combed-back version in combination with a short stubble beard to make knees go weak.
 

Wavy Fringe with Glasses

Male hairstyle with a wavy fringe
 
Clark Kent showed us what lies beneath a geeky exterior and made strong-rimmed glasses a symbol of male mystery. The model's cut has a gradual increase in length from a very short back to the fringe, with a design focused on flow and smooth transitions.
 
His distinct side part plays into the retro theme, completed by the dapper wave that floats along the side of his forehead. Well-groomed stubble on his face enhances the look even more.
