Get in touch with your inner rebel girl with a choppy, asymmetric snip in a rich shade of russet. Lots of volume with an imperfect finish translates into devil-may-care insouciance. Keep the front long and sideswept for added drama and opt for razored ends.

If your hair is fine, get maximum attitude from your look by opting for a textured pixie cut. Keep layers longer at the ears and shorter at the crown for a tough-chic style and use a texturizing pomade for the perfect piecey vibe.

Make the most of superlong hair by rocking long, extra-thick bangs with that impressive mane! Backcomb hair at the crown for obvious height while keeping the texture rollicking and undone through to the ends.

Get a little rowdy with a head full of textured waves. A classic center part creates the foundation of full, sexy tresses. A mixture of golden blonde and dark blonde locks get the full rock star treatment with a head full of boisterous volume—backcomb waves slightly for a look that’s pure rock-‘n’-roll.
