Part of a growing subculture that promotes uniqueness over
conformism, hipsters are cosmopolitans that create trends. If
you're looking for the best hipster hairstyles for girls, be
aware that looks alone do not make you a hipster. If you're simply
bored of traditional hairstyles, check out a few hipster haircuts
that can give you an edgier look.
Looking effortless is the cornerstone of being a hipster so stay
away from well coiffed hairstyles that are well-defined and hard to
maintain. Try a few authentic hipster hairstyles for
girls.
Hipster Hairstyle: Messy Shag
The easiest hipster look to pull off is the messy shag that looks
like you've just rolled out of bed. Getting soft layers helps
define the gyspy shag haircut
without making it too mainstream and maintenance is generally
easy.
Grow your hair and add volume with layers without using too many
hair products. If they become an absolute daily necessity and
special blow drying is involved, your messy 'do will look anything
but effortless.
Hipster Haircuts: Retro Dos
Get inspiration for your hipster hairstyle from retro haircuts for
women that are still fashionable without being too mainstream. You
can try the beehive or bouffant
hairstyles of the '60s or go back even further for longer hair
worn in a natural way. Avoid any hipster hairstyle that has already
penetrated the mainstream and is sported by at least a few
celebrities.
Hipster Haircuts: Spiky Pixie
The super short pixie can make for a cool look, but if you prefer
your hair longer don't cut it into the classic pixie look. Leave it
a bit longer on top and get a few messy spikes using hair pomade
and running your fingers through your hair.
Hipster Hairstyles: Mohawk
If shaving the sides of your head for a traditional mohawk
hairstyle seems like overkill, get a hipster hairstyle with a
unique fauxhawk. Use pins or very little hair gel to slick back
your sides and get some volume on top without going for a well
defined look.
Hipster Girls: Twisted Pullbacks
A simple way to wear you hair according to your hipster aesthetic
involves simple variations on the twisted pullback. Pull sections
of the hair above your ear, twist them and pin them to the back of
your head. Get an asymmetrical look with a different number of
twists on each side, for one of the hipster hairstyles for
girls that's easy to wear whether you have medium or long
hair.
