Is it really? Let’s face it, trends are personal. You like it or you don’t. I must say that I like this hairstyle a little bit (about 2%). I would never have the guts to shave off part of my hair. I don’t even want to cut it let alone shave it off! Kudos to those whom are that brave!

After doing a little bit of research on the web, I found out that David Bowie set the trend in the ’80′s by shaving of his hair partially. I wasn’t born yet so he didn’t set the tone for me. I was introduced to this hairstyle when I saw a photo of singer Cassie. Other celebrities followed after such as Rihanna, Sarah Harding (Girls Aloud), Mel B. and Ammelle (Sugababes).

After the first batch of celebrities this hairstyle became popular on the streets. I keep seeing more and more girls with some kind of form of this style. Some shave half of their hair off and keep their short or long locks. Others shave just a small part of their hair. So it’s really what you want.

But now the million dollar question: would you shave off part of your hair?
