We've all experienced this: you go to a beauty salon to get a new haircut, and you walk out in amazement at what happened to your once beautiful hair. Styling too short a hairstyle will never be fun, but with the right attitude, you can get the best out of the situation and even enjoy the new look. In the meantime, practice taking care of your hair so that it grows back as quickly as possible.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Getting used to a new look

  1. 1 Try not to panic. You may be shocked to see yourself with short hair, especially if you are used to walking with long hair. It doesn't matter if something went wrong at the beauty salon or if you're just not happy with your haircut, it's hard to accept the fact that your once-long hair is now clipped. However, there are ways to help you appreciate the new style and maybe even love it.
    • Remember: hair will grow back, slowly but surely. So if you really hate a new haircut, tell yourself that this is a temporary problem.
    • Try to enjoy a new way of grooming your hair. Now you don't have to spend a lot of time styling.
  2. 2 Consider if you can do another haircut to fix the situation. If a hairdresser messes up your haircut, you may want to go to another hairdresser for a more stylish look. Short haircuts can be awesome and chic, so there's no reason to worry about hair styling poorly.
    • Chances are, you will have to cut your hair a little longer to make the cut look good. Tell the second master that you want a prettier shape, while, if possible, without changing the length of the hair.
  3. 3 Understand that short haircuts can be cute too. Long hair can look great, but so can short hair. Try this opportunity to see your style change. A short haircut can visually enlarge the eyes or accentuate the facial features, which will lead to the fact that men on the street will turn their heads, looking at your trail. You may even love this look more than the previous one.
  4. 4 Don't hide behind hats and scarves. Of course, it's okay if you cover up your new hairstyle for the first few days, as you are still getting used to it. However, if you don't normally wear hats and suddenly wear them all the time, people around you may think that you are hiding something. Better to get used to the haircut and not hide it. This will make you look prettier and more confident.
  5. 5 Feel great in a new look. Once you get used to a new style, it's time for that style to work for you. Wear it with pride, not embarrassment. Imagine or pretend that you've dreamed of such a hairstyle all your life.
    • If someone compliments you about your hairstyle, you don't have to brush it off and sigh, "Oh, it's too short." Better to say, "Thank you! I wanted to try something new!"

Method 2 of 3: Trying on cute short hair looks

  1. 1 Check out celebrities with similar hair lengths for inspiration. Short haircuts are all the rage and there are plenty of examples among stylish stars.Search the Internet for photos, pay attention to styling. You will find that short hair can look amazing: slicked up, tousled, sticky, etc. Here are some examples of celebrities who go for a short haircut:
    • Jennifer Lawrence
    • Rihanna
    • Beyoncé
    • Emma Watson
    • Jennifer Hudson
  2. 2 Use gel or other styling products. They look very good on short hair. Gels, mousses, pomade and other products can help you create a look that cannot be achieved with long hair. They make the hair heavier. But short hair does not weigh much, and therefore it can be easily tousled or made sticking out.
    • Try applying the gel to your hair while it is still wet after a shower for a tousled look.
    • Rub some hair pomade on your palms and twist your hair to make it stick out.
  3. 3 Try to make a bundle. If your hair is still long enough to be pulled back into a ponytail, you can create a bun that will give the illusion that your hair is still long. Gather your hair at the crown of your head and tie it tightly with an elastic band. Then follow these steps:
    • Divide the tail in two.
    • Wrap one piece at the bottom and pin with bobby pins next to the elastic.
    • Wrap the other piece over the top and pin it with bobby pins next to the elastic.
    • Secure everything with hairspray.
  4. 4 Wear wigs. To feel your long hair again as quickly as possible, there is nothing better than putting on a wig. Choose a wig with the desired hair length and wear until your hair grows back. Wigs are easy to wear when the hair is short and quite fun.

Method 3 of 3: Boosting Hair Growth

  1. 1 Do not use a hairdryer / curling iron / hair straightener every day. These things harm your hair, making it brittle and brittle. In this case, you will have to wait forever for the hair to grow back. Maintain healthy hair by using heating elements for hair styling only on special occasions.
  2. 2 Avoid hair extensions and other similar procedures that stretch the hair. If you are interested in extensions, be very careful in your choice. This is a very difficult hair procedure and, if not done properly, can lead to hair damage or loss. Some people think that any extension is bad for hair, but if you are sure that you want it, choose a real professional in your field.
    • Glued false hair is harmful to the hair, as the fake curls are attached to the natural ones.
    • False hairs that are sewn in are less harmful, but can also cause damage as they are heavy and pull on the hair.
  3. 3 Treat your hair regularly. The way you take care of your hair every day has a huge impact on its growth. In order for your hair to grow back long and strong, you must keep it as healthy as possible. Here's what you need to do:
    • Don't wash your hair every day, as the shampoo dries out your hair. Limit yourself 2-3 times a week.
    • Instead of a hairdryer, towel dry your hair, gently pressing and tousling.
    • Use a wide-toothed comb instead of a massage brush.
    • Do not dye or bleach your hair as this will damage it.
  4. 4 Health food improves hair growth. Eat enough protein and omega-3 fats to nourish your hair. Of course, proper nutrition will not accelerate hair growth, but it will make them strong and healthy. Here's what to eat:
    • Salmon, tuna and other fish that contain omega-3 fatty acids.
    • Avocados, nuts, olive oil, and other foods that contain healthy fats.
    • Chicken, beef, pork and other proteins.
    • Lots of leafy greens and other vegetables that provide the body with the nutrients it needs for healthy hair and skin.

Tips

  • Just smile. Your hair won't be like this forever. How you present yourself and behave will make a big difference!
  • Talk to your stylist (certainly not to cut your hair short) and advise on what you need to do while your hair grows back. Perhaps he or she will give you a different haircut or fix any bugs.
  • Ask family and friends for their opinion on your new hairstyle. Ask: "What can I do to improve the image a little?"
  • Try to speed up hair growth. Massage your scalp for 2-5 minutes 2-3 times a day to stimulate blood flow to increase hair growth. However, keep in mind that hair can become too greasy and dirty after these procedures, as you also stimulate the production of natural fats.
