Trendy Winter Hairstyles
According to the season, your hair strands act differently no matter your hair type or texture. It’s a good idea to think about changing your haircut along with your product routine. Here are some of the best Trendy Winter Hairstyles from the top stylists. Think of these as a way of ensuring good hair days throughout the season.
’70s Shag
This season, choose a haircut that works for you if you want to reduce the amount of heat-styling. Let’s experiment with your layers but don’t be afraid. According to Erik Jon, a hairstylist, the idea of getting the layers short while keeping the perimeter long is a good try for a more layered or shaggy vibe. When a customer wants to do something out of their comfort zone, I adore it, says Jon.
Jon recommends using the UNITE BOOSTA Volumizing Spray for normal to thin hair. With the use of this spray, there will be no maintenance required as compared with other styles and also the layers will grow out nicely. The best way to maintain the shape and health of your hair is to have a good haircut every three to five months.
Claw Clip Updo
With the return of claw clips, the 90s are back in all its glory. During the holiday season, a less than 5-minute simple hairdo that can be pulled together is a quick and easy hairstyle. Regardless of your hair type or texture, you can be dressed up for any occasion with this simple yet chic claw clip style. Gather your hair, twist it up, and give it an artificial French twist to make a proper hairstyle. Now attach the claw clip and leave the ends and any desired face-framing pieces out.
Ghost Layers
Ramon Garcia, a hairstylist from Beverly Hills developed this hairstyle. It involves trimming the extra length of the layers from below without significantly reducing the overall length of the hair. Matt Swinney, Global Creative Director at RUSK, says this maintains the appearance of long hair while adding multifaceted movement and dimension.
Liquid Hair
As the temperature gets cooler, people are switching from textured curls to a silky smooth new look. The appearance of liquid hair is not wet, in contrast to the wet hair trend. Think of it as ultra-shiny and super-sleek reflective hair that causes it to reflect the light just like water. Its final look rests between a voluminous, salon-quality blowout and stick-straight, flat-ironed strands.
Box Braids
For women with natural hair, three-strand braids are a superb protective style. Moreover, it looks great on longer hair lengths. It is possible to do box braids at home and it can be done in a hair salon as well. To add extra lubrication and moisture during braiding, use a mild cream moisturizer. Make sure that you are not braiding your hair as tight braids as it may cause breakage. For a smooth transition, you can also find some synthetic braiding hair options at Latched and Hooked.
French Girl Bob
You might want to think about getting a French bob if you think a pixie hairstyle is too short or you simply love bangs. According to Dion, a French haircut hits just above the collarbone, allowing the hair to shine. This haircut suits every hair type. This looks wonderful on straight-to-heavy hair by giving the appearance of an undone, more effortless vibe. It is advisable to leave an extra length for curly hair because of curl shrinkage.
Textured Curls
For a winter hairdo that is stylish and less damaging, enjoy your natural curls. When the cold, dry weather outside is combined with the dry heat indoors, your hair may lose moisture and shine. According to Rivera, this look is excellent because it requires no regular shampooing and blow-drying. Use a moisturizing product that refreshes your curls in between washes. Moreover, if you will be wearing a hat, scarf, or earmuffs, this will be a great look, says Rivera.
Curtain Bangs
Winter is a perfect time for Curtain Bangs. Dani Hauflaire, stylist at Maxine Salon in Chicago, says as there is less humidity in winter, it is easier to keep them smooth and straight. Also, you don’t need to worry about your sweaty forehead making them greasy. According to Wendt, curtain bangs, which are choppy bangs that gently split in the middle are a great way to frame your eyes while wearing a mask. They will grow out into soft, face-framing layers that you may hold back if you don’t love them, adds Hauflaire.
Classic Bob
A bob is a fantastic choice all year long, but it’s particularly popular in the winter. According to hairdresser Gina Rivera, owner of Phenix Salons and By Gina, you can quickly and simply style a bob at any time or anywhere, and you don’t have to worry about your ends being tangled in a scarf or stuck on the collar of your coat. Although you can wear a bob in a variety of ways, people with fine to medium hair look great in this style. According to Austin-based hairdresser Michelle Pasterski, having thicker hair increases the possibility of having an undesirable triangular or helmet-like appearance.
Clavicut
A clavicut is a short, blunt haircut that is slightly longer than a bob and falls about the clavicle, or collarbone. The front of the hair is trimmed a little shorter than the back to draw attention to the collarbone. It is possible to wear the clavicut in several ways, such as wavy, edgy, sleek, or in a bun or ponytail. The clavicut is among the greatest winter hairstyles for people who want longer haircuts. Your hair finishes just below the collarbone, so think about cutting off at least a few inches. Dry winter air can leave old dry ends extremely staticky and unpleasant, Pasterski says.
Pixie
People with fine hair must choose Pixie hairstyle this season because they can provide the appearance of thickness and texture, says Rivera. She suggests that “make sure to bring photos of ones you like and don’t like,” as there are slight variations between pixie cuts. Invest in adorable accessories, such as bobby pins or fun clips, which are an excellent way to give a festive touch and control unmanageable winter hair.
Lots of Lengths
Wendt advises “asking for lots of face-framing layers and movement if you’ve been growing out your hair and want to keep doing so but are craving a little refresh or subtle move.” Hauflaire supports and notes that a cut like this is ideal for the season since it emphasizes length rather than bulk at the root, which will be covered by a winter hat. Nevertheless, she says that “hydration is the key to any long style, especially during the winter.” Use as many hydrating stylers as possible because it’s the key to preventing static and erroneous frizzies.
