There is no better way of reinventing yourself for the new season than treating yourself to a new hairstyle. This year has seen some pretty cool looks emerge from the back of pandemic-induced lockdown. So, if you are looking to transform your look this season, here are our picks for this year’s top hairstyles, cuts and colours.
Five Hair Style Trends of 2022
- Natural Textures
The natural hair trend is inspired by the natural makeup trend that has become popular over the last couple of years. This trend does away with extensions and heavy set colours and moves towards more neutral colours that accentuate the texture of hair.
The beauty of this style is that it can be tailored to your specific hair type. So you’ll not only look radiant you’ll also look and feel unique. And while it’s natural, you don’t have to avoid colour completely. The ends of your hair can be highlighted to create the illusion of depth.
- The Soft Blunt Bob
The bob never seems to go out of fashion, and no wonder, it’s easy to maintain, flattering for most face shapes and projects a sense of self-confidence in the women who wear it. But the bob has had a bit of a makeover itself this year with the softened blunt bob.
This style takes the traditional blunt bob look and adds a little texture to the ends. This small detail softens the look by adding extra texture. The result is a more relaxed natural-looking style that retains the shape and character of the bob.
- Beach Waves
The release of Top Gun Maverick has seen a renaissance of 80s glam style. And there are few hairstyles so evocative of the 80s than the beach waves. This heavily textured style is achieved by creating relaxed curls with curling tongs.
This style works for most face shapes and looks equally good on long and short styles. We recommend adding a few balayage highlights to create an authentic 80s look. This will also help to add a little depth and texture.
- The Shag
2022 is the year of the shag! With its long bangs and layered 70s style, the shag is pure 70s rock ‘n’ roll. But it has been updated for 2022 by incorporating more texture and finer layers to create a more face-flattering look.
The shag works with all colours but we recommend adding contrasting highlights to help bring out the depth. You can also go full rock ‘n’ roll with some crazy pink and red colours if you’re feeling brave.
- Pixie cut
The Pixie cut is one of our all-time favourites, but it’s been updated for 2022 as well. The trend for short styles is to shave at the sides to create a very modern crisp look. While the locks of long pixie cuts are kept longer than before.
Both styles can be finished with choppy ends to create a nice textured look on top that suits most face shapes. This style also carries colour well, so if you are looking for bright pinks, greens or reds, this is the cut for you.
