Your hairstyle will either make you look like a showstopper or a teen who has sworn not to shampoo her hair for weeks (depending on the vibe you’re going for).
Your job honestly ends once you figure out the hairstyle that fits the shape of your face, much like the glass slipper was made to fit Cinderella. But most salons will give you the basic choices—bob, steps, layers and their variations.
Step cut, undoubtedly, is the one with the biggest audience so let us make sure you know about all the creativity you can put into it to make it your signature hairstyle.
