Haircuts "under the pot": features, tips on selection and styling

Suffice it to recall the heroes of Russian fairy tales, in order to present a haircut, unromantically referred to as "a pot". They were worn by men, and it was carried out exactly along the edge of the cap. Similar hats decorated the heads of men in the Middle Ages, when uniformity was the motto. Then the hairstyle lost its relevance until the 60s of the XX century and returned already including in the female variation. Short concise haircut has become one of the opportunities to achieve equality for women.

Today, thanks to the return to fashion geometry, this haircut is experiencing a new peak of popularity. Not only women, but also children's haircuts of similar forms are relevant.

Haircut "under the pot" is also called "hat." It looks quite strictly in the classical interpretation, has the following distinctive features:

• straight line bangs in the eyebrows;
• volume “cap” of hair is located in the zones of the occiput, vertex, and crown;
• back view gives you the opportunity to see the neck in all its glory, as it is assumed that it should be as open as possible;
• length can be medium or short;
• it is possible to perform both open and closed designs of temples;
• bangs can go into slices that cover the ears;
• the face is clearly highlighted, as if it were framed by strands;
• thick type of bangs can correct facial features, hide age-related changes;
• It is important to consider the type of strands and face when choosing a version of this haircut.

Modern hairdressing gives you the opportunity to interpret this hairstyle to suit your individual characteristics and tastes. Shaved bottom, sideburns, elevated weight of strands or elongated - versions are quite enough, especially since modern methods of dyeing can bring a real drive and chic to the composition: bright shades, coloring.

There are several basic variations of the performance of the haircut under the "pot".

• Classic. It is this option that we most often see in children. The cut of such a hairstyle is even, the lines are smooth, ideal, however, it is acceptable to include ragged bangs in the composition. It may be diagonal, which increases the number of suitable types. In the occipital zone (right below the cut), excess strands are shaved off. The parting can be located in the center or be lateral.

• Asymmetry. This variation corresponds to the latest fashion trends, in such a hairstyle asymmetrical lines can be made in the form of a ragged slice, which should be moderately negligent. If your strands are not thick, this look will be more appropriate. Asymmetrical strands may be present in the design of sideburns, bangs. The main thing is not to use all asymmetric lines at once and to make them as smooth as possible.

• Elongation. Such a pot is slightly “consonant” with the bob cut, only much shorter, and the length of the strands around the circumference is absolutely equal. Short bangs can stand out from the overall composition, its cut should be slightly higher. Excellent move - shaved strands below the cut line. Such a clearly executed bright haircut will suit only ideally oval faces.

• Glam rock, or minimalism. Performed in the ultrashort version, which can be supplemented with torn strands, exactly cut off or asymmetrical. The shaven bottom is obligatory, the form is preferable oval.This version is suitable only for those who are ready to go for a correction after a few days, as it is necessary to frequently shave the regrown strands.

• Originality. As a rule, in this version we see a bright coloring, monochrome or complex. Red-orange gamma, blue, pink, yellow is especially popular this season. It is possible to identify partially strands in the zone of bangs or throughout the entire mass of hair. The main condition for a harmonious image is measure. Even the brightest, catchy image must be kept within certain limits.

Most often, this hairstyle is recommended for children under three years of age. Strands in this period of life are heterogeneous in length and structure, too thin, often confused. In addition, it is necessary that the children's head looked neat, well-groomed, but simple. The more confused the strands, the shorter the "pot" option should be.

In kindergarten age, you can continue to perform such a haircut, if the child does not mind, but in school it is better to abandon it. It is unlikely that the child himself will want to look like a baby in this difficult period of growing up. In addition to this reason, stylists distinguish other disadvantages of such a haircut at school age, such as loss of strands. The best option - a classic short haircut.
