Didn't I say, why did the female stars of domestic entertainment start to cut their short hair again?
For example, Hu Lianxin, who was controversial some time ago, and Wu Jinyan, who was even more controversial...
Of course, the most eye-catching has to be Zhao Liying.

The one-size-fits-all in the Reuters photos is refreshing and relaxed, and my sister is really becoming more and more fashionable.
I still remember the last time Zhao Liying wore a circle with short hair, it was because of the criticized English accent in Dior's promotional video many years ago.

At that time, it was evaluated as more like a "Buddha spicy dance of the Wote House".
But now, not only is his career thriving, but he has also won the Feitian Award.
Fashion resources are also remarkable, and some netizens even said that they slapped a group of celebrities in the domestic entertainment fashion circle at that time.
Now it is true that the saying that elegance is not born, time will tell.

Not only that, in Korean entertainment, a "short hair movement" is also in full swing.
Lin Zhenna and Jung Eun-chae, who have long hair all year round, have cut them short, and Kim Tae-ri has also updated to version 2.0 of short hair.
To say that the design space of short hair is actually much smaller than that of long hair, but why do female stars start to cut short every few years?
· Hidden words for short hair?
· A 100-year history of change?
· What are the latest aesthetic trends in South Korea?
In this issue, Ouhua will explain it to you at one time!
Of course, if you haven't figured out whether to cut it short, Ou Hua has also hidden tips in the text to help you judge together!
Short hair free
Those of you who saw the subheadings may be shocked:
Can this short hair still be free?
That's right, and just a hundred years ago, women didn't really have the freedom to have short hair.
Therefore, even after men cut their braids, women's short hair was considered for a long time to be "a strange shape that is neither female nor male, neither Chinese nor Western".
The article "Women's Hair Cutting Problem" published by Shanghai Chengdong Girls' School once refuted this view, arguing that women's hair cutting has three major advantages:
One saves time, two saves makeup, and three saves clothes.
(I have to say that it is)
However, because women's haircuts have neither the support of foreign culture nor strong political implications, they have not been taken seriously by society.
It was not until the outbreak of the May Fourth Movement that articles supporting women's haircuts appeared in newspapers and magazines.
However, although these remarks resonated with the female community, women who cut their hair at that time still had to bear heavy pressure from their families, schools, and society, and it was not uncommon for women to be scolded, ridiculed, and expelled for cutting their hair short.
Later, because short hair was associated with the revolutionary movement, the haircut movement went to two extremes: it was still forbidden and forced to cut hair.
After the thirties, there were endless voices about the "dull and ugly" of short hair, and it was only then that the public's perception of short hair shifted from practical to beautiful.
An UP master named "When Nala Ran Away" summed it up very accurately:
History of short haircuts
After the return of the aesthetic right of short hair in the East, the new style of short hair in the West also began to play tricks.
Anyone who knows the history of clothing should know that the last century was the golden age of fashion. Basically, a major fashion trend is born every decade.
In fact, for short hair, it's roughly the same -
✂️ 1920s
In 1915, ballroom dancer Irene Castle cut her curly hair short to make it easier to care for her after surgery (some say it was due to the requirements of the show).
Who would have thought that when she appeared in public with short hair, it would cause a sensation, and the amazing ladies began to rush to imitate it.

As a result, the wild bob set off a frenzy and became a symbol of the women's liberation movement in the West.
✂️ 1930s
When the term "blonde stunner" is mentioned, many people associate Monroe with Monroe, but Monroe said, "Jean Harlow is my idol." ”
Jean Harlow is a "golden bomb" in the Hollywood beauty market, distinguished by her instantly recognizable hairstyle.
Inspired by Jean Harlow and other Hollywood actresses, sculptural curls and side-to-side hairstyles became popular.
At the same time, Billie Holiday pinned gardenias behind her ears to accentuate her flat curls.
✂️ 1940s
In the 40s, Hollywood actress Veronica Lake once became very popular with her long sideways hair of "holding the pipa and half covering her face".
Because this hairstyle is full of mystery, it is also called "peek-a-boo hairstyle".
But at this time, it was a time of war, and many women went out of the house to work in factories, and the "peek-a-boo hairstyle" was easily wrenched by machines.
Therefore, in order to avoid tragedy, the United States government encourages women to change to safer hairstyles, and practical short hair and curly hair have become the first choice.
✂️ 1950s
In contrast to the 50s, when the fashion world began to re-examine the classic style, flowing, fluffy and playful became the key words of hairstyles at that time.
For example, the appearance of Hepburn, the national icon, in "Roman Holiday".
The short curls and bangs on the eyebrows, which are as light as elves, are playful and elegant.
✂️ 1960s
United States blacks had launched a movement in the sixties called "Black is Beautiful" to encourage blacks to accept and appreciate their natural features.
Black actress Cicely Tyson responded to the call by choosing a natural-style hairstyle based on the black native state, which was first used in prime-time in a series produced by Colombia Broadcasting Corporation.
In addition, there is a brand of hairdressing that must be familiar to everyone, that is, Sassoon.
And the popularity of the Sassoon brand is precisely because the eponymous designer created a "five-point hairstyle" during this period.
At that time, Mr. Sassoon was asked to design a hairstyle that did not hide the merits of the garment, but also had a unique and contemporary design.
This "five-point hairstyle" perfectly fits the different silhouettes of the models, and has a unique architectural aesthetic, so it is very popular with modern people.
✂️ 1970s
Figure skater Dorothy Hamill not only brought gold medals to United States, but also popularized the wedge-shaped short haircut to the masses.
Because this hairstyle is so easy to care for and clean, it is perfect for Olympians.
Not only that, but this hairstyle is also popular among young people, and Dorothy Hamill has earned the title of "United States's sweetheart".
At the same time, the black female singer Diana Ross also led the trend of an African round unkempt called the Afro.
✂️ 1980s
The fashion icon of the 80s is none other than Princess Diana.
Princess Diana's classic short feathered hair is also popular all over the world.
In the late eighties, Concubine Diana's hairstyle was basically fixed in a "mushroom head" appearance -
The front is slightly longer, and the back is trimmed very short, supposedly to make it easier to hold up the crown.
However, she died at the age of 36, which also cast a layer of pathos on this hairstyle.
Short hair trends
Having said so much history, what exactly is the "short hair in the life of a Korean woman" that is popular today?
Ou Hua summarized three representative "new · Korean women's short haircuts", which one do you like the most?
✂️ Jung Eun-chae: The Prince of Literature and Art
Last month, the Korean drama "Judge" was launched.
Unexpectedly, in this male-dominated TV series, Jung Eun-chae, who cut off his short hair, unexpectedly went out of the circle.
This look is very different from the image she presented in "Anna" and "The King: Eternal Monarch" before.
Not only does he become a child brother in seconds, but he also has a unique and very refreshing and youthful beauty.
This neat and delicate short hair is actually very similar to the female version of "Han Man's Head", the biggest difference is the deliberately set sideburns.
It is very suitable for girls with neutral facial features, and it can also highlight the slender neck line.
No wonder the Korean Internet hot comment: The most representative golden hairstyle in 2024 was born!
✂️ Jenna Lin: French style
Since I just mentioned the sense of coldness, I have to mention another "South Korean god in charge of coldness" Lin Zhenna.
Because she has been rated as "the world's most beautiful" for three consecutive years, I thought that her long hair style was a beauty completion, but she recently changed to a corrugated curl, and her beauty has been upgraded again.
Not only are the facial features with thick eyebrows and big eyes more prominent, but the whole person also looks more lazy and casual, quite French-style.
Generally speaking, short hair will make the overall temperament towards toughness.
But this hairstyle, which retains small curls, is full of femininity.
✂️ Kim Tae-ri: Retro Hong Kong style
Kim Tae-ri's short hair has been cut for a long time.
Although this year, he also cut the short hair of a little boy similar to Zheng Encai, but the previous Hong Kong-style short hair is more out of the circle.
This is because Kim Tae-ri's strengths are mainly concentrated in the upper half of the face: the eyebrows and eyes are thick and sharp, and the atrium is delicate and stretched.
But because her mandible is relatively wide, this shortcoming will be magnified when she has long hair, and after cutting her short hair, it will be next level.
Therefore, Ou Hua also provides you with two simple and crude judgment methods of "long hair or short hair" at the end:
Face shape advantage> facial features advantage, choose long hair.
Nose and lips> eyebrows, eyes, and long hair.
Of course, we also have to analyze specific problems specifically, and what are the judgment methods of "long hair or short hair", and everyone is welcome to discuss together!
