Today we will raise the curtain on the tomboy haircut - one of the most controversial and curious of the fashionable haircuts.

What is its peculiarity, we will now see. Let's go in order. Translated from English, the word tomboy means "tomboy", "bully", "fidget". Based on only one name, one can guess that we are talking about a haircut "like a boy", bearing a slightly rebellious, impudent and bold character.

"Tomboy" - a unisex haircut, mainly performed on short hair, but the female version of the performance can be carried out on both medium and long hair according to the latest fashion.

The obligatory components of this haircut are:

• asymmetry in general;
• carelessly falling torn strands;
• open back of the head and temples;
• elongated asymmetrical bangs.

The hairstyle bears a note of artistic negligence, and due to the lack of precise rules of execution, at the request of its owner, it can include shaved areas. This hairstyle presents elements of multi-level contrast and needs styling, with which you can embody an uncountable number of styles and images.

Most often this is the choice of strong, strong-willed girls and women, but thanks to the variety of styling, the "tomboy" hairstyle can also be worn with romantic shades in the image.

"Tomboy", like almost all short haircuts, is not suitable for all women. When choosing this hairstyle, one must take into account not only the shape of the face, but also the character itself, as well as the characteristics of your physique. It is worth noting that age does not play a special role - the "tomboy" can adorn the heads of both young fashionistas and more mature ladies.
