Short Black Teen Hairstyles

It's great to experiment with various hairstyles and looks when you're a teen. For teenagers who want low-maintenance hair, short styles work to keep daily styling time to a minimum. This is perfect for teens who like being on the cutting edge of what's trendy, as well as for athletic teens who are busy with school and sports.

Straightened Hair

    For relaxed or pressed hair, short styles can be anything from a tapered cut with a longer crown to an ear-length bob.

    The "Halle Berry" cut remains popular. The sides and back of the hair are closely cropped and only require brushing with a light pomade. The crown area, which can be about 2 inches long, can be curled and tousled for a casual look. At night, all a teen has to do is wrap a silk or satin scarf around the sides and back of her hair, while leaving the crown out so that it doesn't get flattened. In the morning, a quick touch-up with a curling iron or finger tousling is all that's required.

    A bob is an even length all the way around. A girl can wear this look with or without bangs. She can also wear it parted down the center or on one side for a different look.

    A pixie cut is about 1 inch in length all over the head. It's usually styled by combing downward in all directions. A short bang can be worn straight on the forehead or pieced out for a different look.

Curly Styles

    For natural or texturized hair that's worn curly, a wash-and-go may be all that you need. Curly hair is best styled while wet or damp and then left to dry. If you need to dry your hair faster, use a diffuser dryer on low heat; too much heat can dry out and damage black hair.

    After shampooing and conditioning, apply a light gel, mousse or pomade to the hair. Comb it completely through with a wide-tooth comb. You can twirl pieces around your fingers for additional styling. Let the hair dry. Short hair won't take long to dry, so this is a style you can do in the morning. If you don't have time to begin with a fresh shampoo, spritz your curls with water or a curl-enhancer to fluff them up.

    If you wear a short afro, simply pick your hair out with a plastic pick, add oil sheen or natural oils and fluff with your fingers.

Braids, Twists and Locs

    You can also braid or twist hair that's longer than 2 inches or add extensions that stop at the chin. Locs can be fashioned with starter styles like braids, twists and coils. You can also create unique hairstyles by combining afros with braided bangs or flat twists in the front, with the back in an afro.
