23 Shag Haircuts with Glasses from Short to Long Textured
Shag haircuts and glasses actually work together in a way most cut-plus-accessory combinations don't. The choppy layered texture of the shag frames the glasses instead of fighting them. The wispy bangs sit above the top of the frames or part around them. The face-framing pieces that define a shag land right around the temples where the glasses arms rest. The variations here cover the full shag range across short pixie shags through long butterfly cuts and wolf cuts, plus color options for anyone who wants their haircut and their frames working together as one look.
