If the latest hair dye colors and hair color trends have see a return of natural looks, the same can be said for the most popular haircuts and hairstyles for winter 2018. A natural femininity that plays with reinterpretations of past styles, from the Sixties to the Nineties.
1) MEDIUM-LENGTH HAIRCUTS: IT IS TIME FOR BOB CUTS
One of the trendiest fall and winter hairstyles is the timeless bob haircut, wavy or “textured”, creating a messy, casual look that is emphasized by layers and lightening on the hair tips. The medium bob or long bob in its numerous variations is able to enhance any face. Symmetrical and geometric haircuts and middle part hairstyles are at center stage. The fringe for those who have regular facial features is the "baby fringe” or “baby bangs”, a very short fringe that gives a cheeky and alternative look, perfect for young faces. Eighties-Nineties charm for the ultra-sleek long bangs to to be worn with a layered bob. The inspiration comes from the Sixties for the rounded bob with a full fringe.
2) SHORT HAIRCUTS: WAVY PIXIE CUT AND BOWL CUT ARE BACK IN TREND
Short garçonne hairstyles and pixie cuts are back in trend, especially in wavy, messy styles, for an extremely natural and ironic effect. On the opposite side, inspiration comes from the Eighties and Nineties for the bowl cut, also known as mushroom haircut, that we had put aside, in its classic extra-sleek version. This hairstyle highlights the most original facial features: a return to the past to be entrusted to the most experienced hairstylists. Short haircuts also enhance natural curls: keep in mind that curls should be cut when dry, to better follow the natural movement of the curls. Curly hair gives a naturally cheeky and playful look, but feminine at the same time: it creates a fresh and sophisticated allure, through asymmetric layers that alternate short and long hair strands.
3) LONG HAIRCUTS: VOLUMINOUS CURLS AND COMBED BACK HAIR
A parade of extra-large backcombed hairstyles and hairdos on the catwalks bring the Sixties and Seventies back into fashion: extra volume, imperfect looks and lively hair that exalt femininity in a cascade of soft, loose waves that do not go unnoticed. It is no coincidence that the impressive "beehive" hairstyle with its strong visual impact is trendy again. Short curly hairstyles are enhanced by the layered short bob cut, made more ironic by a light fringe. A side part instead will add volume to the central part of the nape.
