How adorable is this little girl’s lob? The blunt tips and shaping toward the ends of the lob will look wonderful on thin and thicker hair. The side-swept bangs help frame the face and could be styled in a number of ways.

For a simple yet beautiful up-do for your little girl’s short hair, try out the flipped ponytail? It is so easy to do yourself at home, and you can even buy special tools for very little money to create the perfect flipped ponytail.

A simple braided pony with a twist! This is a super cute and playful protective style for natural hair, that’s easy to replicate!

If your little one has fine hair, this sweet pixie cut with face-framing bangs is perfect. The layers give the style a lovely shape that is still young, and the layers give some extra texture to thin hair. So adorable!

This short, choppy bob is the perfect low maintenance hairstyle. It requires minimal styling as it makes the most of the hair’s natural texture. Straight, wavy, or curly hair – this cute little girl’s hairstyle will work with all hair types. And how sweet are those short bangs?

This little girl’s natural curls are so beautiful and they really take centre stage in this gorgeous style. The mini space buns are super cute and can be jazzed up for parties or special occasions with pretty bows or other hair accessories.

Pigtails are the perfect hairstyle for little girls with short hair and we love the little extra detail of the rope braids. Super pretty and will stay in place during a full day of play and adventures.

The shape of this layered asymmetric bob is great with the flicked out layers through the length and the curled under ends to frame the face. Minimal styling is required, a rough blow-dry and a little shaping should be all it takes.

The bubbe braid (or pull-through braid) is not just for long hair, it looks so pretty on short hair. The mini ponytails of this little girl’s hairstyle are very cute and we love how it has been finished off with a girly pink bow.

Sometimes the simple hairstyles are the best. Perfect for a day at school or a day of play, this high ponytail with long bangs is gorgeous and I love the addition of the off-center oversized bow.

Oh my gosh! How amazing is this layered bob? The subtle layers through the lengths of the hair are really soft and light and are a great contrast to the sharp, blunt bangs. A perfect short hairstyle if your little girl has thick hair.

If your little one has a party to go to, this asymmetric messy bun is the perfect short hairstyle. Tie the hair up in a high side ponytail and pin the loose ends into a messy bun shape and finish with a decorative hair accessor, like this gorgeous red hair bow.

I love the mini pull-through braid of this sleek, single-length lob. The sharp ends are super neat and straight for a really polished style for picture day. That is if your little one can keep it looking smart for long enough.

How cool is this asymmetric pixie cut with one super short side? The longer lengths have been given loose curls, which are accentuated by a few blonde highlights. An edgy style that is still age-appropriate.
