This Is The New Cool Girl Haircut on Instagram

When it comes to changing up my look, nothing inspires me more than cool girls on Instagram. Whether it's a unique makeup look or a cute pixie cut, once I see someone killing it on Instagram I'm trying to recreate the look myself faster than you can say "double tap." Right now my current obsession is girls with buzz cuts. I just shaved my head for the second summer in the row, but now that summer is drawing to a close I'm trying to grow out my buzz cut before the weather gets nippy.

Unfortunately, every time I go on Instagram lately I get an overpowering urge to grab the clippers and shave my head again — possibly because I made the mistake of following a bunch of really cool, gorgeous women who are all rocking the shaved head like nothing else. Yeah, they're definitely not helping me go through the grow-out stage.

However, if you're considering shaving your head, then I highly recommend following the women listed below for a little motivation. Although the buzz cut is becoming more common for women, I still get a lot of comments like "Why would you do that?" or "I could never pull that off." I shaved my head because it looks and feels awesome, and the ladies below — and their many followers and likes — seem to agree. They might also give you some inspiration and confidence that you need to take the plunge. It'll probably surprise you just how easy it is to "pull off" a buzz cut.
