The Bowl Cut

Sometimes when you hear the words ‘Bowl Haircut’ you think of Jim Carey in Dumb and Dumber, or some geeky twelve year old boy, or an asian dude smiling in a school photo. Well, gosh darnit those fashionistas have done it again! I’ve spotted two bowl cuts in the last few days in NYC, and one on as Astoria bound ‘N’ train. And I know it’s been a while since Chloe Sevigny has rocked hers.

Oh, this gal has been lucky to have been beautysmacked. A candid shot, but take it from me, she walked right off Fashion Ave. A girl with a cut like this strikes confidence in her appearance. This isn’t a cut that everyone can wear. The bangs style are usually as far as most women will go to emulating a bowl haircut. As mentioned before the cut is usually something associated with young boys and, well, bowls. Her hair is a little wavy, but it’s cut in a blunt style and covers the earlobes, which is the traditional bowl cut style. She was rocking everything she wore, the patterned dress, the trendy granny boots, the curves, the bag, Everything! I wouldn’t wear the heart glasses myself, but I think she could pull them off with her short bowl cut. What do you think?
