How to maintain a short haircut to optimize its sexiness
Contrary to the popular view that short hair does not require much maintenance, to ensure optimal sexiness, there are several essential steps that need to be carried out regularly.
Short hair needs to be washed even more frequently than long hair, as it cannot conceal natural scalp oils as well as long hair can. Shampooing short hair as often as every day or at the very least every other day will guarantee that short hair is kept stylish. Only use conditioner on short hair if it is very dry, and even then, use only a small amount.
One of the best attributes of short hair is the ability to experiment with hair color. Often, the bolder, the better when aiming for a sexy short cut. Short haircuts can handle dramatic bright reds, rich chocolate browns, and bold blonde highlights that might not suit longer locks. Feel free to experiment with color; short hair gives you the freedom to do so.
Add volume and texture by experimenting with different styling products. While long hair can become weighed down by styling products, short hair can handle products such as waxes, pastes, and volumizers, adding sparkle and ensuring your short hair remains sexy.
There's no need to spend hours in front of the hairdryer when you have short hair, as prolonged periods under the blow dryer can spell disaster. Fuzzy, heat-damaged short hair can look terrible, far from glamorous and sexy. It's advisable to blow-dry short hair until it's almost dry, then give it some tousle, ruffle, and shine with products and shine spray.
Former comedian and therapist Pamela Stephenson sparked discussion by publicly suggesting that women with short hair were intentionally diminishing their desire to be seen as desirable. The comment predictably triggered outrage, with short-haired women more than a little peeved at being accused of being "asexual" and unattractive.
Opposing Stephenson’s views are not only the millions of women increasingly opting for the chop without considering their choice of hair length as deliberately sabotaging their sexuality but also the millions of men who find women with short hair extremely desirable and sexy.
Short hair can indeed be intensely sexy, but not in the submissive, coy, "girl-next-door" look that long hair typically conveys. Instead, it exudes a more dominant, powerful, and commanding presence.
