Our hairstyles say a lot about us: how we view ourselves, who we admire, our mood, and if we've just rolled out of bed. So, for your reading pleasure, we put together a list of 15 slang terms for describing some of our favorite hairstyles:

1. Skinhead

A hairstyle where the hair is shaved all off or so closely you can see skin (pretty straightforward, right?).

2. Crew cut

This do has been around for many years (since at least the 1920s) and is believed to have gotten its name from the Yale rowing crew's adoption of the hairstyle.

3. Fashy
