As the leaves change, so should your hair! This fall, we’re seeing a mix of nostalgic nods to the past and fresh, modern twists in hair trends. From embracing your natural texture to chic new cuts and treatments, here’s everything you need to know to keep your hair looking fabulous this season.
1. Natural Waves and Textures
The days of fighting your natural hair texture are behind us. This fall, it’s all about embracing what you’ve got. Whether you have loose waves, tight curls, or anything in between, letting your natural hair shine is key.
How to Achieve the Look: Start with a hydrating shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair healthy and frizz-free. Apply a leave-in conditioner or curl cream while your hair is damp, and let it air dry for the best results. If you need a bit of extra help, use a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer to enhance your natural waves without adding frizz.
2. Bixie: The Grown-Out Pixie Cut
A hybrid between a bob and a pixie, the bixie cut is the perfect middle ground for those who want a short style with a bit more length. It’s versatile, easy to style, and great for those who want to make a statement without committing to a full pixie.
How to Achieve the Look: Ask your stylist for a cut that’s shorter at the back with longer layers in the front. Styling is a breeze—simply add a bit of texturizing spray or pomade to define the layers and create a tousled, lived-in look.
3. Hair Gloss Treatments
Shiny, healthy-looking hair is always in style, and this fall, hair gloss treatments are taking center stage. These treatments not only add shine but also help to seal the hair cuticle, making your color last longer and your hair feel smoother.
How to Achieve the Look: Visit your salon for a professional gloss treatment, or try an at-home gloss kit if you’re looking for a quick fix. The treatment typically lasts about 4-6 weeks and can be customized to enhance your natural color or add a subtle tint.
4. Long Layers with Bottleneck Bangs (Inspired by Sabrina Carpenter)
Inspired by Sabrina Carpenter’s iconic hairstyle, long layers with bottleneck bangs are the perfect blend of modern and retro. The bangs are narrow at the top and gradually widen, framing the face beautifully.
How to Achieve the Look: Ask your stylist for long, face-framing layers and bottleneck bangs that taper outwards. For styling, use a round brush that blow-drys to create soft volume and a bit of movement in the layers. Finish with a light-hold hairspray to keep everything in place.
5. Messy Buns and Loose Braids
Effortlessly chic, messy buns and loose braids are the go-to styles for fall. They’re perfect for any occasion, from a casual day out to a more formal event, and they’re easy to create in just a few minutes.
How to Achieve the Look: For a messy bun, gather your hair into a high ponytail, twist it around the base, and secure it with bobby pins. Don’t worry about making it too neat—the messier, the better! For loose braids, simply create a classic three-strand or french braid, then gently tug on the edges to give it a fuller, more relaxed appearance. Use a strong hold hairspray to keep hair in place.
6. Birkin Bangs (Named After Jane Birkin)
Named after the iconic actress Jane Birkin, these bangs are slightly longer and softer than traditional bangs, giving them a romantic, effortless vibe.
How to Achieve the Look: Ask your stylist for bangs that skim just below your eyebrows with soft, feathered ends. These bangs are all about movement, so avoid heavy styling products. A quick blow-dry with a round brush is all you need to keep them looking perfectly undone.
This fall, it’s all about finding the right balance between effortless and polished. Whether you’re embracing your natural texture, trying a new cut, or experimenting with bangs, these trends offer something for everyone. Don’t be afraid to mix and match styles to find the look that’s perfect for you. Happy styling!
