Japanese rank the cutest female hairstyles in the following ranking, with an old favourite coming top.
The ranking, with votes given for each and sample photographs – note that the names given are taken straight from the English-sounding terms the Japanese made up for themselves to keep things looking stylish to other Japanese with a similarly lacking command of the English language; thus they bear no great relation to actual English hairstylist terminology.
The example photographs were selected by Japanese observers and so should correspond to the Japanese terminology:
Strangely, the venerable Ascension Pegasus MIX Sakari is nowhere to be seen.

Also, cut bangs are disgusting.
Agree on Ponytail, but bangs are sexy as hell.
