Vintage-Inspired Shag Cut
For an exciting change, experiment with giving your long hair some texture with a vintage-inspired shag cut that evokes 1920s bombshell style. This cut will highlight all its best qualities!
Layered Bobs
Layered bobs are versatile lengths, quickly adapting to a ponytail or bun styling with just the swipe of your fingers. Add an edge with peekaboo highlights for added edginess – business in the front, party in the back!
Blunt Bobs
A blunt bob is an excellent way to go if you’re ready for something bolder than your typical layered locks. This timeless classic haircut can flatter virtually every face shape and hair length; it can even be styled without bangs! Long blunt bobs can make for a classic look for most face shapes; shorter blunt bobs also work well for those with thicker locks.
Bridget Brager of T3 Salon recommends this haircut to create the illusion of density with layers added around the face for those with curly and wavy locks, particularly wavy or curly textures. You could even opt for platinum blonde shades as an update with current fashion trends!
Chic Neck-Length Blunt Bob
For a chic and sophisticated take on this trend, opt for a neck-length blunt bob with side-parted bangs – it is both elegant and fashionable, perfect for everyday wear! To add an edge, consider incorporating some baby lights to add subtle highlights for added drama.
Chin-Grazing Blunt Bob
A chin-grazing blunt bob with blunt bangs is the ultimate statement style. This look adds femininity to an otherwise masculine style by providing structure and balance through an angled chin-length bob shape.
Romantic Pixie Cut
If you have a pixie cut, ask your stylist to add baby lights and angle your bob to give it an updated, romantic vibe. This look suits all hair colors but is particularly stunning on brunettes with darker complexions. Pair this style with a half-up ponytail to give your face an extra edge!
Peekaboo Highlights
Peekaboo highlights are an easy and stylish way to add some flare to your look while remaining low maintenance. They are becoming increasingly popular since Miley Cyrus made headlines for sporting them on TikTok and Instagram. Perfect for both blonde and brunette hair colors alike.
Lilac Peekaboo Highlights
If you have a light blonde base, lilac peekaboo highlights are an elegant way to spice up shoulder-skimming layers of your hair. If you prefer something bolder and daring, violet tones look stunning when blended into lighter bases such as platinum blonde or soft buttercream.
Fiery Red Peekaboo Highlights
Another excellent way to try this trendy shade is by pairing it with vibrant red. Having chunky streaks of red peek out through platinum locks can create an eye-catching statement.
Subtle Peekaboo Color
If you aren’t quite ready for full peekaboo color, try mixing in small amounts of dye into your shampoo or conditioner to give your locks a hint of shade. Or use color depositing products as a test run before investing in complete balayage services.
Mullet
The iconic hairstyle from the ’80s, known as the mullet, has made a dramatic comeback. This trend makes an entrance back into fashion today!
Short and Edgy Mullet
Add long bangs for an updated take on this classic hairstyle by emphasizing its distinction between front and back sections with long bangs, which emphasize the disconnect. Wavy or curly locks look best; try blow-drying the bangs straight across for a sleek finish to give it even more editorial and modern appeal.
Skin Fade Mullet
Another fantastic iteration of the mullet is the skin fade. While this style is usually reserved for formal events and work environments, combined with a mullet, it takes on a new personality that stands out with texture.
Shorter Mullet Variation
If you need more time to get ready for full rocker style, a shorter mullet version may also be appropriate. This is a more subdued variation on this trend, with sides and back getting faded while middle section continues down to the bottom of the scalp – perfect for all hair textures, especially fine or thin locks.
Bold and Colorful Mullets
For an eye-catching modern take on the mullet, experiment with colors like bright pink or acid green for your locks. Spiky styles will draw even more attention when walking down the street!
