The Prada spring-summer 2027 show, orchestrated by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, set the tone. The hairstylist Guido Palau has declined short hair in all its forms:
- The pixie cut revisited, soft and ultra feminine;
- The buzz cutfor an almost bare skull;
- The boyish cut disheveled, with 70’s highlights;
- The short slicked back bobwith a very chic wet effect.
The watchword? To assume. More blurred, freer, more textured, these cuts accept all options on one condition: that they be assertive. Everything seems imperfect, but everything is thought out. A perfect state of mind for those who want style, without constraints.
A boldness that does not date from yesterday
This freedom has a history. As early as 2017, the house had cut the hair of six models backstage. The result: a very clean, very simple square, which harkened back to Prada’s 1990s, while appearing new and futuristic in its sobriety. The short is therefore not a passing fashion, it is a signature.
Pixie, buzz cut, boyish: which short cut is right for you?
Forget the boxes. Think instead
spectrum : each cut responds to a desire and a type of hair.
The buzz cut: for a radical gesture
It is suitable for those who want highlight their features and assert a true personality. Guaranteed effect.
The textured pixie: softness and femininity
Zendaya recently adopted it, with a very short nape and soft curls pulled up on top. This cut
softens the face and remains ultra feminine.
The 70’s boy cut: the ally of fine hair
If your hair is fine and you dream of density, this is the right option. Work the strands with your fingertips to obtain that textured blur typical of the fashion show.
The short slicked back bob: the wet chic effect
It lends itself to straight or slightly wavy hair. Cover it with a dab of gel for an elegant wet look. Want to relax during the day? Simply scrunch the lengths to regain movement.
The brief to give to your hairdresser
A beautiful short haircut starts in the salon, and
preparation makes all the difference. Here are the good reflexes:
- Choose a trusted hairdresserwith whom exchange is easy;
- Talk about your natural texture
: it determines what is really possible; - Bring 2 or 3 reference photos : Prada looks, Zendaya pixie, tousled boyish cut;
- Schedule regular appointments
to keep a short cut clean and structured.
And now, do we dare?
The short is not a renunciation, it is a
character choice. Whether you opt for the softness of a pixie or the radicality of a buzz cut, the main thing is to start with a clear idea and a clear desire. Write down your inspirations, make an appointment, and let yourself be surprised: your next cut could well become your signature.
