A short neck may be best complemented by a haircut that is?

  1. Tapered

  2. Blunt Cut

  3. Layered

  4. Bob

The correct answer is: Tapered

A short neck can give the impression of a fuller, rounder face. In order to balance this, a tapered haircut would be most suitable. A blunt cut, which would be cut evenly around the neckline, could draw attention to the shorter neck. Layered and bob haircuts can also make the neck stand out more, so these may not be the best options for someone with a short neck. Overall, a tapered haircut would create a more proportionate and flattering look for someone with a short neck.
