31 Trendy Undercut Styles for Bold Women

21. Long, Black Locks + Blonde Undercut

If you’re going for an undercut, why not make it stand out even further by opting for a dyed undercut – a completely contrasting color to the rest of your hair.

This one will take a little more maintenance as it won’t be long before the roots are on show but for an event or occasion you could even consider wash-in / wash-out products for a quick update.

22. Undercut Style for Curly Hair

If you think you can’t have an undercut style because you have curly or afro hair, you’re very much mistaken. You can absolutely rock it and this shows you how.

A look often loved by singer Pink, it’s easy and classic, a great way to show off great bone structure… Or just picture-perfect makeup that fakes it! Did we hear you say contouring?

23. Edgy Shaved Side

If you want to soften up a side-cut, the easier way to do is is to flick the hair over to create faux-bangs, or to have wispy bangs snipped in for good measure.

We know you want to be edgy but still hold your femininity too so don’t be afraid to soften the look with lighter features to the rest of the hair.

24. Star Design

You’re a star! It’s only fair you should that off and what better way than with this super cool star design undercut?

Another look that requires more maintenance than your average undercut, the star look is definitely paying close attention to detail although one wrong move and the whole thing could be ruined!

25. Edgy Natural Look

When you have such structure as this edgy undercut, it makes sense to let the rest of the hair be a little wild and free so why not let it do it’s thing just like you can see here?

Two quite contrasting looks, they work very well together tomato this chick appear edgy and on point. If you want something that really does stand out, opt for big hair alongside the short hair too. Another set of contrasting looks that has a great impact if that’s what you want to achieve.

26. Purple Hair + Undercut

If you’re paying attention to detail, pay attention to color. We love purple. We love undercuts. We love purple undercuts!

Can you do your own undercut? Well, yes, of course you can if you’re brave! However, the thing you need to remember is that you can’t see the back of your head so what might look great at the front won’t always have the same impression from the back, and thats the part people are going to see if you wear your hair up.

With such precision looks as this one, it makes sense to pay a little extra and see a professional. You don’t want to lose friends over an accidental balding do you?

27. Zig Zag Design

If you don’t fancy masking your growing-out undercut, make a feature out of it by dying it a bright color or making a grand feature out of it such as an intricate design or shape?

If you’ve had the cut, you need to go through the in-between stages so why not just rock it. You might start a brand new fashion trend!

28. Good Girl Gone Bad

The placement of your undercut is important because you will need to dress it both up and down for different occasions.

If you opt for the sides, they will be noticeable more often than those at the nape or back of the head. Also, the deeper you have the cut, the more noticeable it will be too. Ideally, for a first-timer, it is worth looking at something that is both small and discreet to help you get used to the new look.

29. “V” Shape Design

Clip-in extensions are another thing you should take into consideration when you’re growing out an undercut and especially when used with graduated looks like this one.

It makes sense when you think about it – fake the length with the extensions you probably would have worn if you didn’t have the undercut in the first place. Just make sure you’re applying the properly and the look doesn’t look shoddy. You want to mask the growing-out stage, not draw attention to it.

30. Only for Brave and Bold Women

This is a look guaranteed to get some looks and for all the right reasons too. Great, clean-cut lines with beautiful pops of color… It’s every undercut-fan’s dream!

They say less is more and with this look, the less hair on show, the better. Just make sure the lines are as clean-cut as this to prevent it looking shoddy or tacky, and really rock your look. This isn’t the kind of thing you can wear with a lack of confidence.

31. An unexpected Addition to Purple Hair

Purple hair is already pretty much out-there but by not add an extra layer of shocking perfection with a clean-cut undercut thrown in for good measure?

You could go for any color of course but just remember, when you put your hair up, those beautiful lines will be on show so rock them! You’re badass and bold remember.

***

There are so many designs you could go for. There are so many colors and variations of shades you could pick from too. The undercut is a style that has the potential to be incredibly versatile if you can deal with the high-maintenance. We loved each and every one of these styles and we hope they provide you with some welcome inspiration too!

    1. These aren’t called undercuts. They are called designs and Black and Latinx folks have been doing this since the 80s. It would be nice to pay homage to the birthplaces of style rather than just erase them. Period.
