Our last trio here features progressively shorter hairstyles, all of which have 'more extreme' elements designed to enhance the appearance of the style.
 
Starting with Annette Bening, we see a short layered look that has razor-cut texture to create needle-pointed ends in the finished look.
 
Combined with a blowout styling technique and texturing paste, the style is given lots of visual interest and the power to draw the attention away from signs of age, while matching the personality of an actress who is known for playing a range of characters and with a tremendous sense of self.

Next, we find the lovely Morena Baccarin, whose gamine-short haircut marks a dramatic shift from her previous styles that celebrated her long, raven-hued hair. This super-short cut has been point-cut to create extra texture in the finished look, and the definition created by the styling beautifully displays the shine and shimmer of her hair.
 
As with many shorter hairstyles, this gamine cut, which means 'boyish,' draws attention to the eyes, making them the central and primary focus of the look. Since her eyes are one of Morena Baccarin’s best features, the effect is dramatic.

Finally, we find a look that has only been sported as a regular statement by a handful of women. Amber Rose, an American model, has claimed for herself a very dramatic look by opting for an edgy haircut, which she has dyed blonde. The effect creates an intense focus on the face and allows her beauty to be uninhibited.
 
As a model, the hairstyle also makes her sought-after since her look is so dramatic that the items she wears are usually well-remembered, appealing to designers who want their names and their clothing to be remembered by as many people as possible.
 
Of course, these looks are not for everyone, but hopefully they will offer you some inspiration for enhancing your own sense of style.
