Ever thought of shaving your head, but too afraid to cut all your hair off?

Did thecoronavirus quarantine push you and your hair maintenance over the edge?

Maybe the undercut is the solution you’ve been looking for.

Undercuts are beauty statements, but they also have a functional purpose.

For those with abundantly thick hair, shaving off some it can be a real game-changer.

Another benefit of the undercut look is that it is versatile for those wanting to play with masculine/feminine boundaries.

On the days where shoulder length hair was preferable, the cut made it possible.

It all sounds great.

But is there a downside to this haircut?

Undercuts require lots of maintenance

While undercuts are really versatile and stylish, they have some downsides.

Try shaving only one side or the back of your head to avoid excess hair chopping (viaOdyssey).

Another aspect you must consider before committing to an undercut is that the style requires a lot of maintenance.

So, it’s recommended to do touch-ups twice a month, perDouglas J Salon.
