Wedge Hairstyle
Do we all know what a wedge haircut looks like or anything about this cut?.. because I didn’t know until a few hours ago.
Trevor Sorbie, an English hairstylist created this kind of haircut in 1974 but it becomes famous only in 1976 when Dorothy Hamill, a popular ice skater, was seen wearing the wedge haircut after she won the Gold Medal in the Olympics. This was the begging for the wedge hairstyle. After that all women went to their stylists to ask about this type of haircut.
Since then many hairstylists tried to interpret this type of haircut in their own way. Today the wedge haircut is as trendy as it was when it became famous. Many celebrities are wearing this type of haircut in different ways. You can have the wedge hair cut if you have a short hair but you may also do this if you have medium hair.
The classic wedge haircut is known for the triangular shape. Some people may know this type of haircut as bowl cut. Because this type of haircut is not a standard one it can be wore by both women and men. If you want to go for a wedge haircut you should know that it is possible that your cut might not look as you wanted to.
If you want to create your own wedge cut you need to know that it looks better if you have a shorter hair. Wedge haircut and bob haircut have in common the hair length. The triangular shape must be oriented with the top towards your neck and the bottom toward to your head. This kind of haircut offers volume to the hair.
The wedge haircut looks better if you have a straight hair because short curly hair looks rather messy than a special creation. But everything can be fixed with a great stylist. For example Milla Jovovich has a curly hair but the wedge haircut looks perfect because his waves match very beautiful with his oval face.
If you want to keep your haircut perfect you should cut it every two months, because if your hair is becoming a long one you risk having a shaggy look. There are some products that can help you to maintain your haircut like: straightening balm, hair mask, straightening serum.
In our days the wedge haircuts are very trendy and can be wearing by anyone. The only problem is to find the best hairstylist to offer you the perfect cut that suits you best. It doesn’t matter your age for this kind of haircut. Mariska Hargitay used an angled wedge cut at the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards and she looked amazing on the red carpet.
Many Hollywood celebrities are wearing wedge hairstyles because they are easy to maintain and look real good almost to anyone. Pink is one of the famous artists that are wearing wedge haircut. Even if she changes the color of the hair from black in blonde and reverse her wedge hairstyle looks lovely, whatever the color she wears even pink or blue she is still cool.
