❶ Fashion Head: Under The Boy

Women's haircut "under the boy", which was first used by hairdressers in the early twentieth century, a century later is still relevant. In the 2012 fashion season, she occupies a leading position along with the "bob" and "cascade". Location: Location: Initially, women began to cut their hair short, like men, out of necessity: after two world wars, the beautiful half of humanity had to work hard, and often in places where long hair greatly interfered. However, those who were forced to shave off their thick hair did not have to suffer for long. Already at the beginning of the sixties, hairstyle "like a boy" became the limit of throwing almost every girl. The reason for this craze was a single photo shoot, which was published in fashion magazines by photographer Barry Lategan. The pictures showed a sixteen-year-old girlfragile and elegant, with a touching naked long neck not hidden by hair. The model's name was Leslie Hornby, but she became known throughout the world as Twiggy. And it was thanks to her that short hair was recognized as an integral part of the image of any fashionable woman of the sixties.

In the eighties, the popularity of haircuts "like a boy" was supported by Sharon Stone, who became a generally recognized sex symbol after the release of the erotic thriller "Basic Instinct". The Soviet Union at that time had its own sex symbol: Elena Safonova, who played the main character in the lyric trilogy "Winter Cherry". Her hairstyle was copied by hundreds, if not thousands of Soviet hairdressers.

Today, fashion trends have returned short and ultra-short hairstyles to the peak of fashion. However, unlike the workers of hairdressing salons of the end of the last century, who often cut everyone "with the same brush", modern stylists warn: a haircut "like a boy" is not for everyone. It is necessary that the head is of the correct shape, the neck is long enough, and the figure is graceful. Then short hair and shaved temples will add extra elegance to the look, making the owner of the haircut fragile and defenseless.

In favor of a short haircut, the relatively simple care of it speaks: you only need shampoo, conditioner and a small amount of styling foam or mousse to create the desired style. Hair dries very quickly and, as a rule, does not require straightening with an iron, provided that it is trimmed by a good master.
