11 Sexy Short Haircuts For Summer

December 16, 2024 By Karen Lang

Summer is almost here and with that—short haircuts! No need to worry, especially since you can always grow it out. I’m giving you some of the freshest short hairdos to choose from. Pick your most favorite short haircut on this list and nail it this summer when you hit the beach. These short haircuts also look good and stunning regardless of the season! From short bob to pixie and stylish undercut to shoulder length chop, this roundup got you covered!

Short Haircuts to Make You Chop off Your Hair

1. Short Bob

A post shared by Patricia Ann Kugel (@hairbypatriciak) on May 3, 2018 at 5:56pm PDT

Short chops that frame your face shape is IN this summer. How about the classic straight cut which tapers a little bit down towards the chin? This cut is one of the most basic but on the right face shape, it looks fresh and clean, especially in the hot summer days. And since it’ basic, it’s easy to style.

2. The Pixie

A post shared by RB’s World Of Fashion Varietes (@rbclothingzzz) on Aug 2, 2017 at 6:11am PDT

If you’re going for short haircuts, why stay in the safe lane when you can go adventurous with a pixie cut with side-swept bangs? Style it with a nice hair color like this beautiful platinum hair color. It complements your short pixie and is classy and edgy all at the same time. Makes me want to go chop off my hair now!

3. Asymmetric Bob

A post shared by jkdesignshairpdx (@jkdesignshairpdx) on Apr 25, 2018 at 9:21pm PDT

How about a really short asymmetrical cut to bring out your cheekbones? Seriously, one of the sexiest short hairstyles out there. It works well for women with fine hair as the layers add volume. Also, you won’t even have to worry about how it’ll look when it’s longer because, somehow, it looks prettier with a little bit of length.

4. Stylish Undercut

You can also go with an undercut. This is personally something I’ve never tried before, but I’d really, really like to one day. How hip and beautiful this short summer haircut is?

5. Shoulder Length Chop

A pastel-colored wavy chop is as interesting as a pixie cut, especially if the colors are wonderfully executed. You don’t even have to go for really short hairstyles. Just a sweet chop which touches your shoulder is enough to bring in sexy in the summer heat.

6. Textured Cut

A post shared by Tiffany Pachl (@tiffanypachl) on May 2, 2018 at 9:03am PDT

Another way to keep a short length hair is to give it texture, this grunge feeling cut is edgy and sexy in all the right places. Add a twist to this short layered hair with textured full bangs. Use a flat iron or let your hair loose and enjoy a wavy hair. After all, curls are in this beach season.

7. Short and Bangin’

A post shared by T O R I M O O N E Y 🔮 (@torimooneyx) on May 3, 2018 at 2:08pm PDT

Bangin’ bangs which frame your eyes this summer is another way to do it. It brings focus to your eyes and gives a youthful aura to your face. I’m wearing one now, and I’ve been loving it. Haircuts with bangs can seem hard to maintain, but it all boils down to having good hair products to take care of your hair.

8. Chin-Length Bob

A post shared by DUA LIPA (@dualipa) on Apr 21, 2018 at 1:23pm PDT

As if short hairstyles aren’t hot enough, Dua Lipa made it hotter. She recently ditched her medium hair and went for this short haircut. Celebrity hairstyles are always on trend, so expect more people to wear this and other cute short haircuts.

9. Basic Bob

Want to try short hairstyles but prefer to stick to the basics? Then this basic bob is for you! This stands out among all hairstyles for black hair. It’s easy to maintain, so it’s suitable for those ladies who are always on the go.

10. Layered and Balayage-d

A post shared by Jenny Cruz 💄 (@makeupbyjennycruz) on Jan 6, 2018 at 2:28pm PST

Who knew layered haircuts and balayage would look good in short hairstyles? This short wavy hairstyle is perfect for those who want to make a statement. Balayage hair looks so good in layered haircuts. It’s so trendy, especially with side-swept bangs! Turn this bob haircut into curly if you want to add volume and look more stylish.

11. Pixie and Undercut

A post shared by Nadine DuBois (@msnadinedubois) on May 1, 2018 at 11:46am PDT

Look bold and edgy with this pixie haircut with a hidden undercut. If you think this is something out of your comfort zone, don’t worry, your hair can always grow back. One of the perks of having short pixie haircuts is the low maintenance. Plus, less hair fall!
