THE NEW YORK POST

What's the Buzz
Short, sex hairstyles make the cut this fall
On this season's favorite guilty pleasure. 'America's Next Top Model," diva hostess Tyra Banks took particular delight in making over a Texas beauty queen named Cassandra. "I want to make you look like Mia Farrow in 'Rosemary's Baby,"' she says, before chopping off the girl's long locks for a short, pixie 'do.
The beauty queen hated it so much she dropped out of the competition, but Tyra was right. Cassandra looked fabulous - and, considering what beautiful women everywhere are doing now - on the cutting edge of the latest trend in hairstyles.
Consider Sienna Miller (right), who late last week lopped off her hippiechic tresses in favor of a
bouncy short bob.
Or Keira Knightley, who manages to come off both badass and sexy with her gamine locks in the action film "Domino," opening Friday.
"I'm hearing women talk about how much they love the fact that with short hair they can look so chic - without having to spend hours, and lots of money, having their hair blown out and flat-ironed," says Joe Cossidenti, a senior stylist at Midtown's Allure Day Spa. "Unlike previous trends in short hair, which tended to have a hard, high-maintenance edge, this new look is soft, sassy and easy to handle."
It's also not a look that should leave you feeling as if you've been sheered or looking like you're about to enlist. "There is lots of movement in these bouncy, pixie cuts," Cossidenti says. "And it's an incredibly flexible style - neat and professional enough for the boardroom, but cute and feminine enough for the barroom too."
Designer/stylist Fabrice Gili, who is a celebrity favorite at the Frederic Fekkai salon, says the new short 'do is so popular because women - and their redcarpet role models - are desperate for a dramatic change.
"Fashion has been about long hair for the last four years," Gili says. "Women are so bored with bangs and big curls and waves and Japanese straightening techniques or elaborate up-'dos that last only for a few hours."
Short hair, he says, is swiftly becoming the new style-shorthand for modern. It's also the perfect, low-key foil for fall's highly embellished clothes.
So what about the breathless trend stories in the fashion glossies proclaiming the return of big, drama-queen '80s-style coifs?
"Stylists who contribute ideas to those stories live in a vacuum," Gili sniffs. "They're not working with real women, or even thinking about what real women want. And, from everything I hear from my clients, what women want right now is a hairstyle and a great cut that will last longer than the time of a photo shoot and one which they can manage themselves."
