To tackle this problem, you should opt for a side part instead. A side parting softens the edginess of a blunt haircut and it gives a youthful and stylish look.
  • Hair that has been blow dried straight or flat ironed looks the best with a blunt hairstyle. To combat any hint of frizziness, it is best to apply a silicone-based gloss or serum before blow drying hair.
  • If you have to attend an event or a party, then one of the best ways to style your blunt hairstyle is by creating soft wavy curls at the sides. Use a long barreled curling iron haphazardly over random sections of hair. Soft waves looks incredibly romantic and it also softens the contours of the face.
The beauty of a blunt haircut lies in its versatility as it can be styled in many different ways. A blunt hairstyle is suitable for women who have fine or medium textured hair. Women with coarse and curly hair should stay away from such hairstyle since it ends up looking dowdy.
