Undercut//Understood

There is a this silent but screaming trend right now and in the UK it is an even bigger deal.

I am talking about the undercut.

 You know the one?

Remember in the early 90's when the "bad girls" wore half their head shaved- so when they wore their hair in a ponytail you could see what they had done. They shaved it. Those girls used to scare me. I'm not lying.

Anyways, I am totally obsessed with the undercut these days, but I have to say, I am particular.

After many minutes/hours searching for the perfect example of what I am talking about I found only a few.

Here are a few tricks that I believe are needed to pulling off the perfect undercut and still looking lovely.

-NEVER shave the nape. Throughout my searches, this is really popular, and it even goes as far as carving out designs.(But I will say, I'm not opposed to steps,racing tracks or lightning bolts when done right, with a sense of humor and of course style- all depends on the girl, and done on the side(s) only) No girl can get away with this- it's just not pretty or flattering.

-NEVER bic it. If you want it to look like a terrible mistake or you have an incredible peculiar hairline, Never shave it to the scalp.It just looks bad. 

-Brush your hair.

-Curl or Style your hair.

-Wear some makeup

-Accessorize

-Make sure you can hide it from your grandma

-Always be respectful- no matter what edgy style you have.

-but, Wear it with Confidence and a smile.
