The success of Christy Cut
Yesterday as today, the success of this cut It is always enclosed in the same characteristics: practicality, sensuality, ease in maintenance. Real point of breakage with the maximalist hair of the eighties (how can we forget the cottones of Melanie Griffith in A career woman) Christy Cut represented a real turning point.
Very contemporary and essential, as on the other hand, the nineties were, This cut has refined naturalness as its strength. Very valid alternative to the classic Bob, Christy is a short but not too much cut, suitable especially for the full -bodied and moved hair, so as to give a very natural movement to the hair, and is framed by a barely mentioned fringe, perfect for giving further movement.
The real turning point, especially for the nineties, is however represented by leaving the neck discovered. In an era in which the ordinance hair was long, better still if vaporous, showing off such a short cut was a revolution.
Not only because extremely practical, and perfect for the hottest days, but why has shown how sensuality does not reign only in long hair, far from.

How was this cut reinterpreted today? For example, the version of the model Mathilda Gvarliani is very similar even if it has changed the proportionsslightly shorter than that of the past and has the longest fringe. Without losing in charm and practicality.

Revival cuts from the nineties
The Christy Cut is certainly not the only nineties cutting still today. A similar fate had the Bowl Cut. The famous bowl cut, trend of the last seasons, is became famous thanks to Linda Evangelista: in the early nineties, She was asked to cut her fluent hair. The result? An immediate success signed by the Hirstylist Julien d’re.
And what to say about the famous Butterfly Cut, who returned this season? The butterfly cut is definitely timeless and at the time it was the Cindy Crawford’s workhorse: Halfway between the long and the short, it is a cut full of scaling.
In the end Claudia Schiffer, queen in having been able to reinterpret the long hair, slightly moved in a nineties key, à la brigette bardot. That much still likes today.
