With the change of the calendar comes a new beginning, and what better way to start the month than with a new hairstyle? Hairstyles have inspired cultural revolutions, affected identity expression, and defined time periods throughout history.
Consider Cindy Crawford’s classic blowout look from the 1990s, or a more retro appearance like the beehive updos of the 1960s.
Here are some of the latest hair trends that are here to stay.
1. Ombré
Ombre means “shade” or “shadow” in French, and it is a striking, two-toned hair colour effect. It is often darker at the top and lighter at the bottom. An ombré hairstyle can also be any colour combination, including natural blonde, brown, or red, as well as something like pink, blue, green, or purple.
It’s adaptable and flexible for most long and medium hair lengths. One advantage of ombré hair colour is its low cost. Because the top layer is dark, you don’t need to touch it up very often. Many customers like how the overall appearance of ombré hair colour changes as their hair grows out!
2. Sleek front and loose back
We’ve adored the sleek-back look for a while now, and the good news is that it’s not going anywhere. One version of this style is a contrasting style where the hair is slicked-back in the front and loose at the back.
If you want to try another hairstyle in this style, consider a centre part and a top knot, which is currently trending on social media platforms like Instagram!
3. Natural hair
More and more people are gaining the confidence to experiment with their grey hair. Gwyneth Paltrow, in her natural element, is one star who is proudly rocking her grey roots.
The notion of living one’s natural texture whether kinky, coily, curly, wavy, or straight will continue for many this year. If you’re on the journey of accepting your grey hair and natural texture, use a gentle sulphate-free shampoo.
4. Brown tones
Brown tones have been trending recently. We’re here to tell you that this colour scheme will be popular all year! Although you might try to get this hue on your own, we recommend consulting with a stylist because colour mixing can be a little complicated!
5. Beach waves
This name makes us want to leap right into summer! Although we aren’t quite there yet, there is something to look forward to: playing with beach waves.
To achieve this classic look, you’ll need a hair curling wand that gives you long-lasting waves that stay for days.
