JAMO | trend s t u c r i a H y d n e r T To Inspire Your Pre-Spring Chop The key to powering through the last few weeks of winter is keeping yourself busy. Whether that’s planning a long weekend in a new city or a date night at the French restaurant down the block, you want to sprinkle your iCal with a few events that’ll keep your mind off what- ever Mother Nature’s throwing your way. And the easiest way to punctuate an otherwise av- erage work week — one with a 97% chance of commuting in slush — is to call the salon, and book yourself a haircut. The next step is figuring out what you’re going to ask for once you’re in the chair. If you’re thinking something fresh and fun, very low-maintenance, and on-trend for spring — we’ve got you covered. Ahead, we’ve rounded up three breakout haircut trends. We’ve been seeing lots of mid-length cuts as of late, but there’s something about the bluntness of a jawline chop that feels fresh for spring. “This look isn’t layered, but very structured and to the point,” explains Sal Salcedo, lead stylist at L.A.’s Nova Arts Sa- lon. “Ask your stylist to cut your bob some- where between the bottom of the ear and below the chin. The idea is to keep it blunt with a slight A-line angle — from the back towards front — this allows for an even grow out, because the back grows a bit faster.” If you’re craving body and texture in your blunt cut, Salcedo recommends asking your stylist for invisible, inter- nal layers, which you can pull into a deep side part for a shape with fullness.
