Short Hair

Two fantastic short haircuts making a scene this fall are a kind of punk rock crop and a refined retro pixie. Evan Rachel Woods is currently sporting this hip and feminine crop with shorter hair on the sides and longer hair on the top. This look would work well for both straight and wavy hair because it is so versatile. Add product to build volume and discover your own unique way to style it.

The refined pixie cut is short in the back and is asymmetrical as it frames the face with a swoop of bangs. In addition, a few strands of long hair in front of the ears keep this look soft and flirty. This sexy and refined cut is really ideal for soft, fine hair and is best worn on women with delicate features.

Medium-Length Hair

The biggest trend in mid-length hair this fall is definitely the bob cut. In contrast to this cut's earlier fashions, bobs in 2011 are textured, wavy, shaggy, and very often accompanied with bangs. The messy look of a shaggy bob works well for both straight and curly hair. In this style, the hair is cut above the shoulders and then slightly angled as it razors to the back. Plenty of layers give this cut a textured, kind of haphazard look that really comes to life when it is styled. Women with straight hair may also opt for a sweep of bangs lightly layered across the face.

The wavy bob, like the shaggy bob, really works because the textured layers prevent the blunt ends that ruled the 80's. This is a bit longer style of the bob with the hair beginning at the shoulders and then progressively tapers to the collarbone. Soft waves have the easy look of just scrunching and going and some nice choppy long bangs really complete the look by framing the face.

The last look for the bob this fall is a more sleek and modern bob with long bangs. Unlike the shaggy bob, this style begins with the hair cut a few inches below the collarbone and although there are some soft layers, most of the layers are long and blunt. This concealed layering is perfect for thinning out thick hair and helping it to lay nicely. A thick, arched bang completes this chic fall look.

Long Hair

Long hair is certainly present in the 2011 fall trends. Natural and effortless looking long hair is accomplished through layering and styling products. Chunky, long layers should look distinct and gradually taper at the ends. Style the long layers with a slight curl at the ends by using a round brush when blow drying or a flat iron if your hair is already dry. The other hot look this fall are some barely there layers. Women with naturally straight hair would be especially fond of this style. The layers on this cut are very long and help to thin out the ends of the hair. Add some faint curls with a curling iron and you are ready to go.
