Kelcy takes a walk on the Short Hair Wild Side by Krista, QCA Hair Wizard

                        Just like everyone else right about now, our very own TCOT blogger Kelcy Hanson, was getting so sick of this weather and ready for a change.  After looking on Pinterest, Kelcy found a short haircut that she liked.  However, she had never in her life cut her hair so short, and was excited and nervous to do it.  With her husband heading out of town for the week, she decided to surprise him and go for the change.  Oh and can I add that same week she also remodeled her kitchen to surprise her husband while working and taking care of her 3 children!  What a great lady!!  This was her inspiration picture. 

 

            One of the biggest concerns Kelcy had was that she wanted a cut that would cover up more of her forehead while bringing out her best facial features.  Kelcy has stunning eyes, and I thought the bangs on this cut would do just that!  The bangs not only cover up what she wanted covered, but also almost direct the eyes to directly look at her eyes.  That’s exactly what a good haircut is suppose to do.  Bring out the best in everyone.  :)

 

            Kelcy has a great hair texture that can be worn both curly or straight without having to put too much effort into either style.  I liked this because I thought Kelcy could style it like the pictures somedays but also go for a more curly look when she desired.  This haircut left enough length on top to do just that.  We also decided to leave enough length in the back that she could wear it flipped up in the back or straight down to give her even more versatility. 

            When it comes to styling Kelcy’s hair, it’s pretty easy.  All she needs to start with is a little volumizer for the crown area, and some gel to give her body and hold.  She needs to blow dry the back either up or down depending on how she wants to wear it that day.  The most important part to achieving this look is to use a texturizing product when finished to give that piecey, textured look.  I used Aquage Transforming Paste.  It’s a moldable tacky product that is non-greasy.  It give the hold of a hairspray once hair is set into desired position.  It is easy to use with your hands to get the look you want.    If she desires, she can also finish with a little hairspray.  Kelcy can also use the Aquage Transforming Paste on her wet hair to help bring out her natural texture. 

            Here are her before and after pictures.  What do you all think? Pretty remarkable, huh?  I think she was meant to have her hair this way!
