Short Formal Hairdos

“Short Formal Hairdos”Short formal hairdos - keep an eye on accessories! I adore this asymmetrical short boy-cut on Marley Shelton. Big, flirty earrings and bare shoulders makes the look come alive for any soiree!

A great cut and color is essential to making this look over-the-top! Dimensional color gives a coquettish quality to the hairdo...lighter in front, darker in back and a few strategically placed highlights and you’re there!!



Short formal hairdos - pure panache! If you think short hair is boring, think again. This short, magnificently mussed-do is too cute! Note once again to make this a more formal do, remember the earrings...the earrings.

To add all this fullness to this shape, Keira’s medium thick hair have been layered and texturized throughout to break it up.

Style with volumizing products, shampoo or mousse and spray roots with a product like, Matrix root lifter


Blow dry hap-hazardly to create fullness. Use your favorite styling gel or pomade to ends for a piecey look.



Both of these short formal hairdos like Katie Holmes’s, fall into classic hairdos! This short crop cut with longer layered bangs looks especially ‘cute’ on oval or petite face shapes.

Other face shapes that can wear this well include heart, diamond and sometimes rectangle. Round face shapes normally should avoid this hairstyle, but there are some exceptions, your stylist should be able to help you.

The slightly inverted chin-length bob with bangs is also a classic shape that makes it fit our list of short formal hairdos. This hairstyle is cut just slightly shorter in back.

Part of what gives this short hairdo a formal look is the chic, sleek styling. Use a flat-iron and a shine serum like Morrocanoil to create this look. This hairdo fits most face shapes and will work best with straight hair.

Short formal hairdos like Naomi Watt’s retro look are full of glamour and style! This year’s trendy wavy, lightly layered bob is especially popular because it’s low maintenance and versatile!

This short hairdo takes on a more formal look with a deep side part and by tucking one side behind the ear. Try a sparkly pin and voila! Another big plus is this hairdo works for all face shapes.

Prep clean hair with a hair styling spritz or mousse like, Sebastian Whipped Creme Use a mid sized curling iron, 1′ to 1 1/4′ barrel and wrap horizontally. Let hair cool before pulling through with fingers to style. Mist with a light hairspray like, Sebastians Shaper.
