This mermaid plait begins with a crown fit for an undersea princess. The tail of the braided headband naturally works its way into the long, cascading 4-strand mermaid tail. This may take some practice, and an extra pair of hands.

Don’t try mastering this masterpiece until successfully learning how to do a mermaid braid. This take on the style involves a small, delicate fishtail braid, so it uses two braiding patterns in one. Thanks to the slender strips of hair pulled into the fishtail, the mermaid technique is still in place.

Fishtail braids are gorgeous and, fortunately, they’re not hard to figure out. A slender fishtail runs down the center of this longer mermaid tail plait. The result is a hairdo that goes beyond the boundaries of the Boho chic land and verges to the fairytale territory.

This side-swept mermaid side braid gives off Disney princess vibes like nobody’s business. The braid begins with a French plait along the hairline. It’s better for long hair so that all the hair gathers to the side, but ladies with shorter hair can always secure stubborn, slipping strands with bobby pins.

This mermaid braid lives up to its name. See the way the plaits are twisted so they look like rope? It’s a good idea to follow a step by step tutorial when recreating a style like this, simply because there are so many different elements. This braid will turn heads no matter what, though.

For a stunning example of a flawless mermaid braiding, look no further. This braid is the epitome of perfection. It’s flawlessly and evenly executed, and the hair left loose beneath the braid at the top comes together to join in seamlessly at the end. Just gorgeous.

The fantastic cotton candy colors blend in this variation on the mermaid ‘do to create the ultimate unicorn hairstyle. This take on the trend relies on French braiding. The secret is to keep the strands thick but loosely plaited.

Pay close attention because there’s a surprise hiding inside of this mermaid tail braid. See it? Two of the strands used to plait it are made of braids themselves. That adds a beautiful level of detail and texture to any braid, especially a glorious purple one like this. Tip: secure the ends of the braid with bobby pins to pull off a true mermaid tail look.

First of all, how ‘90s are those butterfly clips? Secondly, they also help hold this work-of-art together. The knotting technique makes this amazingly easy to recreate, but the design may take some practice if you haven’t tried a chain braid before.

There’s a lot going on in this mermaid braid. It looks more complicated – and more intimidating – than it actually is, although a tutorial probably wouldn’t hurt. The main components include the thick braid at the top and the two side fishtails. At some point, everything gets mixed, but looking at this picture it’s easy to figure out where and when the fishtails are brought into play.

      <image:caption>13. Magical Mermaid Mix

A delicate waterfall braid begins it all. The strands flowing through the waterfall are fed into the mermaid. The tresses are perfectly swept into the plait which then becomes a single half-braid. The curls like the ripples on the sea surface, add even more va-va-voom.

Any mermaid braid is gorgeous on its own, but combined with complementary mermaid colors and eye-catching accents, it’s three times as stunning. This is also proof that a messy mermaid is just as pretty as an immaculate one.

This braid starts out low and sleek. The execution is flawless, so each strand is nearly uniform in size, creating a lovely pattern over the loose hair underneath. Thick braids like this are ideal for both long and medium-length straight hair.

This will take a lot of practice, but it’s worth it. Part mermaid plait, part waterfall braid, the pattern is actually repeated most of the way around. This is like a DIY headpiece when it’s finished — a beautifully braided cowl.

The center part and the loose waves make this the perfect hairstyle for any Boho chic girl. Notice how the hair in front disappears under the mermaid weaving. A side part would look pretty, too, but it’s more appropriate for a side braid.

      <image:caption>2. Thick Milkmaid Braid

You may say that not all girls are blessed with such rich, long, thick hair. Yes, but you can always use extensions, can`t you? The model in this photo did the same trick. Another aspect that makes this thick braid so beautiful is the chunky auburn highlights; by weaving highlighted hair into a braid, you get a super pretty result that makes the hairstyle even more interesting.

You can incorporate a Dutch braid into your crown-like hairstyle by dividing your hair with a middle part along the back and weaving two braids upside down. An alternative for using hairpins to secure the braids in place, a Dutch milkmaid braid will look and feel fantastic throughout the day and night.

It’s amazing what impact pretty pastel colors have had on beauty trends! Something that was once reserved for punk subculture is now worn by every other girl in the street.

Looking to spice up your signature hairdos? It’s more interesting than a regular ponytail, and takes two minutes to do! If you want to go a step further, wrap a piece of your hair around the tie to hide the elastic.

      <image:caption>11. Loosely Braided Bun

A braided bun is an easy hairstyle for long hair. Braid your hair very loosely and twist it around itself at the nape of your neck. The key is to keep your hair neatly swept back, and your braid loose for a contrast and intrigue.

To create a tousled messy pony, tease the ponytail and hairspray for lasting power. Wrap a strand of your hair around the tie to hide the elastic. A bonus tip— for extra volume, stick a bobby pin horizontally at the root of your pony.

A single braid that frames one side of your face is a cute, easy hairstyle that was popular in the ‘90s and ‘00s. For more flair, add a fishtail braid in there! A fishtail is done by sectioning hair into two and alternating smaller sub pieces by weaving them under each other. To make the braid look more undone, fan out its pieces with your fingers.

If you’ve never tried a pull through braid, it’s an excellent option for semi-casual or formal occasions. Tease and hairspray your hair at the crown of your head, and begin a low plait from one side of your hair. Using clear elastics, create a horizontal braid with a similar technique as a pull-through ponytail.

An upside down French braid can be the focus of your updo or just its complement. In this braided ‘do the large intricate bun is in the spotlight, while a small braid up the neck only works as an interesting detail, coordinated with the sparkly barrette.

Upside down braids were made for fitness chicks. With the bulk of loose hair sitting atop your head, rather than on the bottom where it could easily accumulate sweat, you can hit your spinning class–and maybe get away with dry shampooing every once in a while!

With hues of violet, turquoise, and orange, this hairstyle is breathtaking–and we haven’t even mentioned the charming braids yet. Three braids are sometimes better than one, so this curly French braid bun is a worthy option if you want something fancier in terms of braid and bun updos.

A braid and a bun are a fantastic couple, and what’s better, an upside down braid bun is also fairly easy to create. If you love the look, you can vary sleek and tousled updos, play with the number of braids and volume of the bun.

When the sides of your head are shaved, it can often feel like you’re limited to one or two ways of doing your hair. But as the example here proves, even the most unlikely styles can rock an upside-down plait. Since you have less hair to work with, re-creating this look on yourself will be a breeze.

French plaits are inherently sweet, youthful and timeless, having been worn for hundreds of years. To update the style, consider incorporating a strategically messy topknot. The key is to not appear put-together, so leave a few strands loose.

There’s nothing better than a good ponytail! This one, adorned with multiple beads at the ends, is both youthful and regal. All you need to do is box-braid the hair up into a ponytail and leave 2 single braids with beads in front of the ears. During the summer, having hair away from your face is a bonus.

This minimalistic hairstyle is made of kanekalon braids and a couple of golden beads. And yeah, you can use as many beads as you want, everything depends on your mood and occasion.

This braided hairstyle is absolutely iconic. It’s for the bold and powerful woman who isn’t afraid to rock a different look. Since the braided mohawk speaks for itself, only a few beads are needed for decoration.

This look is one of our absolute favorites. A bob is always a chic cut, but imagine it braided — for growth and healthy hair. This braided bob just has a few beads to accentuate this gorgeous style.

The turban became more of a trend than a cultural necessity within the past few years. From bedtime protection to an out-of-house “look”, the turban is a fun accessory to play with — and use to protect natural hair. Play it up with colorful beads and a bit of threading for a great everyday look.

Lemon-yellow blonde braids rock this classic style. Parted on the side and sporting tiny gold-toned hair cuffs, the sun-kissed hair color works nicely to bring out the gold hues in your skin tone. A single teeny-weeny braid with shells and beads is a stylish touch.

Lemonade braids hairstyles that use bold and vibrant colors are the favorites of women who are ready to take the trend to the next level. We like the name “Lemonade with a Cherry Twist” because the deep red color makes the braids look sweet and candylike — yummy enough to gobble up!

Round and round she goes, where she’ll stop, nobody knows! These big lemonade braids are shaped in an intricate wheel-pattern, extending outward from a center hub and framing the scalp in a cyclical crown. Laid edges and two peek-a-boo braids frame the face.

Tiny cobalt braids grow slightly thicker as they extend outward and create an eye-catching effect that reminds us of an evening sunset. The splash of bright blue extensions and the flat, curled laid edges provide a great contrast to the jet-black braids.

It seems like no part of the scalp has been left behind by the multitude of braids twisting and turning in every direction. Pewter-tone metal hair clips adorn just a few of the many braids, and two surprise over-the-ear tresses balance out the hairstyle on both sides.

An interesting twist on the standard form side-swept style is a lemonade braids ponytail, done here in a deep metallic purple. Tiny, thin braids are interspersed between thick, curvy braids that feed into a whimsical topknot with long shiny braids sprouting from the center of the bun.

The super-long extensions on these wine-colored Beyonce lemonade braids are enhanced by white hair string on just several of the braids. All except for two of the skinny braids are swept to one side, leaving two plaited braids that have been adorned with wooden beads and a single shell to cascade forward over the other ear.

Everything about this goddess-braid inspired lemonade style is THICK, including the individual braid width and the curly laid edges. It’s a look we think works best on younger girls or teenagers because it’s easy to maintain and quick to put in and take out.

Four jumbo lemonade braids snake around the head on one side, and four additional jumbo braids drop straight down on the other side, after being neatly divided into symmetrical triangular sections. It’s an extraordinary hairstyle that is sporty and trim.

Can’t decide if you want to go thick or thin on your lemonade braids? No need to, if you choose a hairstyle that has it all. One medium size braid acts as a part line and divides the scalp sections into two. A chunky braid is followed by a skinny braid; and they all look fabulous with shocking electric-pink extensions!

Sleek and simple lemonade braids are beautifully enhanced when they are woven into golden extensions. Curving gently around the crown of the head, the braid pattern is elegant and sophisticated (and relatively easy to put in!) Braid cuffs and laid edges provide the final touches.

If you’re in the market for an alternative to those popular big lemonade braids to the side, try out one of these menageries of mini-braids. Intricate and uber-skinny, it’s a style that works very well for women who have extremely thin and fine hair. Rose-gold extensions add a special “something.”

High ponytails are a sizzling option if you are living or working in hot climates or hectic environments; having the hair in an updo always keeps you cooled down. Add some wooden or ivory beads to the ends and you’ll really be able to dress up the ebony braid color.

Small metallic blonde braids are strategically laid out to wind around the scalp in a geometric spiral. You don’t really need anything else in terms of jewelry or hair accessories because the hair color has got it all!

If you are bored by all the lemonade braids styles that end by sweeping towards one side of the head, then maybe you’d prefer a hairstyle where the braids cascade down on both sides. Sporting a well-defined side part, and plentiful, thin, cornrow braids, it’s a traditional twist on a new trendy favorite.

“Yonce” (as she is known in her inner circle) would just love the circular braid patterns of these classic lemonade braids. Rounding out at the crown of the head, the super-long braids are fashioned into a replicating look that is quite reminiscent of the original Lemonade style.

Take the thickness of a goddess braid, divide the scalp into a diamond pattern, add some mini-cornrow accent braids, and you’ve got yourself an Aztec-inspired lemonade side braids style. It’s flashy, fashion-forward and the best way to make geometric designs using nothing more than creatively braided hair.

A great advantage of box braids is a possibility to add fake hair in any color. This means you can choose absolutely any color under the sun for your style without any damage that comes along with chemical-based hair dyes. The triangular-shape parting creates interest without overtaking the style.

A hair wrap string is a pretty addition to your overall style. Different colors of strings or cords can be chosen depending on the color of your hair. Braids are just as versatile as unbraided hair. Try experimenting with a half-up half-down bun or pony like this one!

Bleaching natural hair may make it frizzy, dry, and damaged — something no one wants. Poetic justice braids with rubber bands are the perfect solution to this as no bleach is needed to lighten your hair.

An easy way to elevate your braided topknot is by meticulously laying your edges. Babyhairs, also known as edges, are traditionally “laid” or smoothed down with a wax-based butter, pomade, or gel. This adds a 90s, polished feel to any updo.

Cuffs, strings and cords added to box braids may ooze tribal vibes enhancing the ethnic feel of your hairstyle. It is great for those with a bohemian-inspired lookbook, however, many African American girls will easily adopt a similar style, regardless of the preferred fashion style.

Box braids with triangle parts are flattering on almost anyone! However, creating such a look requires a lot of manipulation and scalp tugging. If you find that even combing slightly knotted hair can bring a tear to your eye, box braids might not be for you.

A clean, pin-straight middle part is again all the rage. This refined and polished criss crossed parting pairs perfectly with the textured plaits. Color can make them even chicer!

A side parting is a worthy alternative to a centre parting, just in case you are more into asymmetrical hairstyles. When choosing a string to be wound around your braids, select a color that is much lighter or brighter than your braided hair.

Micro box braids with triangle parts form a fascinating pattern on the scalp. Highlights are added by braiding in blonde extensions blended with your natural hair color.

While some jumbo triangle box braids have perfectly symmetrical partings, others are more intricate. An unnatural color, like neon or pastel, intensifies the funky vibes of the braids that otherwise may seem traditional and, therefore, a bit boring.

One way to add interest to your big triangle box braids in black is to throw colored faux locs into the mix. The variety of textures and the contrast of colors elevate the hairstyle and perfectly update it.

Often braids are found in pairs or multiples, however, single braids can be just as stylish and even more modern. Shaved sides accentuate the braid by directing the eye to the center of the head.

Braid styles are a statement of themselves. To spice up your braided hairstyles, try styling them into an oversized updo. If you choose to incorporate shaved sides, these will help your topknot hairstyles stand out.

Making a commitment to shaved sides with box braids is hard! You have to be sure that it truly is the style you want. If not, you’ll find yourself struggling to grow out the buzzed sides. A great alternative to the full buzz is small sections above the ears. This gives you a little undercut detail that can still be hidden if you decide it’s not for you.

When testing shaved sides with braids on top, consider just plaiting the front portion of your hair and leaving the ends and hair at the back unweaved for a pretty yet undone style. Dyeing hair a bold color like neon green or yellow is a great way to spotlight the punk inspiration of the shaved side.

Braiding short hair is a great, feminine detail to add to a masculine haircut like a slicked back undercut. A french braid can be hard to do with shorter hair, so to help your tresses, coat fingers with a pomade or wax.

Shaving the sides of your head without also buzzing the back gives a mohawk-like effect. Braids with shaved sides and back often remove too much hair from the head, more than most women want. Buzzing just the sides is great for those who want the funky vibe of shaved sides without losing too much of their precious locks.

Thin braids are easy to style as they are manipulated more freely than larger braids. Micro braids with shaved sides have a few different options in hairstyles: a ponytail, a slicked back mohawk, and an updo. When slicking the hair backwards, try twisting it to keep it in place without a hair band.

Goddess braids are very similar to cornrows but are just slightly thicker in size. Each braid can vary in size and is thinner at the edges. The girly goddess braids with shaved sides are a cute and different way to try this fun hairstyle.

Micro braids work pretty much just like regular hair strands, but these are certainly a little thicker and are intolerant to heat. The plaits can be styled in a french knot, regular top bun, ponytail, or even left down or swept to the side.

Braids with extensions are good for those who don’t want to risk the damage of natural hair. Stylists often use synthetic plaits to extend hair. This means you can extend your tresses from shoulder length to mid back or even all the way past your hips!

While unstyled hair often utilizes gel or wax to create a slicked back effect, box braids with shaved sides are braided towards the nape of the neck for the same result. The downside is that, while untouched hair can just be washed or brushed out to change directions, braids are worn for a while, so it’s crucial to choose the look you’ll feel comfortable with.

Curly braided hairstyles are often designed to protect the hair from breakage and frizz. Joining two fishtail braids at the back of the head and adding a loose bun builds a great daytime look that does the trick.

As a fan of curly hair with braids, you certainly want to diversify your hairstyles while choosing something that looks good on you — and box braids for ladies, especially when styled with curls at the ends, are a perfect way to achieve that.

Hairstyles with curly braids manage frizzy wavy hair. Try out a diagonal waterfall braid that gives a neat crown and a natural bottom, which looks particularly spectacular on long hair.

Cornrows with colored twists are a wonderful option that will keep your hair healthy, protected and looking great. When you need a hairstyle for short curly hair that’s also kinky and hard to manage, this is the one to consider.

By far, a braid is your best bet for an easy hairstyle that pulls hair back and tames it while showing off your natural texture. You can even combine a French twist updo with a fishtail braid.

      <image:caption>1. Effortless Boho Braid

Well, ok, this braid is not really effortless. But it looks like it is! This look has been made with three organic braids (meaning that no elastics have been used in the ends) to create that ultimate boho feeling.

      <image:caption>3. The Ultimate Crown

This voluptuous crown is something every woman deserves. With crown braids, you’ll often see a parting at the top of the head. I used a hack to create a seamless transition in this look: you make a braid only on one side of the head and then flip the tail over to create a crown. Note that I use a lot of extensions to make the braid this thick.

      <image:caption>4. Two Fishtail Braids in One

To create this braid, you split the hair into two large pieces and braid one half to the inside, like a regular fishtail braid, and the other side – to the outside. Then, combine the two fishtail braids into one to create this fantastic look! It is really fun to do!

Yes please! We all can’t wait to get back out there and show our best hair! How about wearing this look to a festival?! Create two ponytails and make separate pull through braids of them. Then combine the braided ponytails to create this lovely V-shape. You will get turning heads every time with this one!

      <image:caption>8. Organic Side Braid

This full and thick side braid is the best of both worlds: the braid starts on top as a normal three-strand braid and ends up as an organic fishtail in the bottom. Again, organic means that there are no elastics used in this look. How cool is that?

Wedding or Boho? Why choose?! The fun thing about boho braids is they are suited for any occasion. Besides, the braid on dark hair looks stunning against a white wedding dress. Below is a three-strand braid pulled out to the max to create the extra-soft feeling we all like so much.

What is the best hairstyle to wear to the beach? Two pull through braids coming together in a ponytail with loose beach waves is your perfect answer! The outfit and the background of this picture we took in Cape Town complement the style perfectly, making the image the best way to describe bohemian hair for me. Open Pinterest, and you will get this vibe everywhere!

To create an extra thick mermaid braid, make not one but three braids, pull them out, so they become very soft, and then combine them into one. This will give the braid additional volume and give perfect depth to a darker hair color!

A soft and voluminous ponytail with three-strand braids and face-framing pieces creates a look that’s both messy and elegant. This style has been achieved using clip-in extensions — one of the most versatile hair extensions types — to add thickness at the crown.

Hair color is also crucial when you choose your hairstyle. For example, the voluptuous updo below is a nice way to show off all the shades of this blonde hair with highlights! This side braid is made with elastics that you slide down to get an ultra-soft look.

A stunning look for any occasion: party, wedding… You name it! Your clothes will define where you are going to this day, as this hairstyle suits any attire. I used a clip-in fishtail braid and made a knot as a bun underneath. Is this something you would wear?

Ok, you will need some extensions for this one, but the final result will have you smiling for days! Start with two Dutch fishtails on top, then make a ponytail at the nape of your head and create a third fishtail out of it.

      <image:caption>19. Low Bun with Thick Fishtails

This updo is an excellent choice for women with thin hair. But this hair doesn’t look thin, you say! Let me explain. When you make a braid this size at the back of your head, you will have no hair left to make a bun out of it. This boho magic is created with a clip-in braid so that natural hair can be put in a bun.

This is a great boho style for a date night, bridesmaid or party. As a rule, hairstyles for medium hair in the shape of a wreath are pretty versatile and simple enough to complement any outfit. Wear it with an evening dress or to add a feminine hint to a classic oversized suit; it will look amazing anyway.

      <image:caption>2. Micro Front Braids

This style pairs really well with anyone who loves messy waves and has somewhat of a middle part. Add two thin braids on both sides—they don’t have to be perfectly weaved — and your “beachy” look becomes grungy. Add some hair rings when weaving the braids, and this will become the ultimate hairstyle for rock concerts, festivals and parties.

A fishtail braid is a great way to spice up a classic ponytail. All you do is wrap the ponytail with the braid and let the rest hang down. Sure, this is a more discreet, yet unusual and stylish everyday updo. So feel free to wear it to work, when meeting your friends for a cup of coffee or going on a date to the cinema.

I’ve been LOVING micro braids lately! So, of course, it’s even more fun to add some micro braids with a big dutch braid. Together, they create a hairstyle decorated with jewelry chains, which looks so delicate and sweet. Isn’t it perfect for an elegant bride or bridesmaid look?

These accent braids remind me of braiding bracelets at summer camp, and I’m here for it. Such a detailed braid, this hairstyle is created for special occasions. Make sure to spray it with a strong hold hairspray so that your hair remains irresistible throughout the event till late at night.

This is all one big, Dutch braid, starting from the left side of the head and turning into a low, centered bun. Leave a few strands out along the hairline when weaving the braid diagonally downwards to create the effect of slight negligence. If you’re looking for a flawless elegant updo for a wedding, photoshoot, birthday or corporate party or any other event at all, this is it!

We have another braided updo, but this time it’s for shoulder-length hair and is a French braid. Lightness, carelessness and romantic Provence fleur, wear it anytime you want to feel special and feminine. The beauty is you can combine it with any clothing, from jeans and a blouse, to a dress and heels.

      <image:caption>8. Large Dutch Side Braid

To achieve this style, you need to first do a Dutch braid and then add a texturizing powder to help pull out and fluff the braid. Spice it up with cute hair accessories — rings, ribbons, baby’s breath, pins, etc. This hairdo is as simple as it can be, and I guess, that is the secret to its boho magnificence and charm.

      <image:caption>9. Deconstructed Down Braid

This style has a large side braid, but it has curls falling out of the braid to make it look deconstructed. The down braid looks especially exquisite in long and thick hair, as there is the voluminous many-level effect created. Just imagine this gorgeous elegant braid falling down the shoulders covered with the gentle fabrics of a wedding dress. All grace and femininity!

      <image:caption>10. Twist

If you have no idea how to braid, a twist can do the same job. It’s simpler than a French or Dutch braid and gives a similar look. To get such a volumetric effect, fix each strand, binding securely with invisible pins or small bands, otherwise the hairdo will prematurely fall apart. Besides, light waves or curls also add volume and cute messiness to the style.

      <image:caption>11. Updo Micro-Twist

Throwing in a small French twist to an updo can bring it to the next level. The updo comes up looking complicated and sophisticated, but the whole point is to create the volumetric and slightly deconstructed effect. When putting the hair up together, pull some thin locks out here and there, and don’t forget to frame the face with a couple of curls, as well!

      <image:caption>12. Pigtail Braids

Who doesn’t love braided pigtails? This style is a little different than traditional Dutch braid because this style was created with many, many elastics. This hairdo allows women to feel like a fragile young lady at the same time as feeling like a rocker. In addition, braided pigtails make the face oval look cuter and the hair visually more voluminous.

      <image:caption>13. Bubble Braid

This style is best achieved on long hair with several elastics. Gather a ponytail, secure it with an elastic band, then, tease the rest of the ponytail to make the sections voluminous and pretty. Each time you tie a new elastic, hold the tail firmly with one hand and pull the elastic over the tail with the other hand to create the bubble effect.

I am obsessed with everything about this look. The variation of sized and shaped braids into a ponytail is so beautiful and spectacular. Try adding colorful elastics and create a sewn effect between the frontal accent braids; this will give you a slight hint of the ethno look and will definitely draw everyone’s attention.

I love seeing festival braids, and I love the colors of these boxed braids. What a great way to decorate your hair with your favorite colors without damaging it with actual dyes. Another advantage of this hairstyle is that such braids are long-lasting and fun to play with.

      <image:caption>16. Front Micro Fishtail Braid

All you need to know for this style is how to create a tight fishtail braid. Divide your hair into two sections. Weave a braid, alternately adding thin strands from the right and left sections and overlapping them. Make sure to weave the strands tight, and at the end, fix the braid with a strong elastic band or hair clip. Voilà!

      <image:caption>17. Dutch Braid into Top Knot

This style is perfect for all ages and isn’t as complicated as it looks. Part your hair in half, using a comb or your fingers, secure one section of your hair, tuck your head down and start braiding. Then secure the braid and create a small, messy bun, and repeat everything on another side. For a playful effect, add some glitter fixation spray at the end.

Cornrows are such a cool way to add edge to a style. This combination is insanely dashing; cornrows create a symmetrical framing and ideal contours, and the mohawk is all messy and rocky. This style is definitely for someone who likes grungy and daring looks or wants to be in the spotlight at an event.

Infinity braids are not for the faint of heart. They look so cool and unique, yet take a very long time to create. When weaving the strands, your movements will resemble an infinity sign; that’s how the hairstyle got its name. Experiment with accessories, colorful tresses and the updo variations.

Lots of volume gives this look drama and a vintage vibe. To create the style, first add texture with a large barrel iron. Then backcomb the crown and gently smooth the top layer covering the bouffant. Finish by securing with an elastic. For fine hair, add extensions to the tail.

Some ponytail styles are best suited for the gym, but this one is special enough for a date night. To style, begin with a low ponytail, leaving two strands out for ties. A few inches down from the base, tie the hair off and gently pull at the tied section to make a bubble. Repeat a few times.

If you have short layered hair, this is the easiest way to create a ponytail with bangs. Style the front, then pull the rest of your hair into a bun. Attach the draw string hair piece by sliding the comb into the top of the bun, then cinch. Add your favorite accessories.

This hairstyle is best for thick hair; if your hair is fine, add bulk with weave. Curl strands with a conical curling iron, then brush into a high ponytail. This is a perfect contemporary option for a wedding or a pretty look for a night on the town.

Braids elevate ponytail styles, adding interest. This cornrow ponytail hybrid combines a single braid with a classic low gather for a look that’s fashion forward and easy. Use wax to add polish to the braid and hairspray for a tousled texture through the tail.

      <image:caption>6. Pompadour Pony

Height at the top with sleek sides makes a striking silhouette. This shape works for long locks as well as for shoulder length hair; tease the crown section and fold back to create a bouffant. Then pull back the sides and nape into a pony. Finish by wrapping a long hair piece around the base of the pony. Curl for a soft finish.

      <image:caption>7. Twisted Side Ponytail

This style starts with a twisted braid that wraps around the head starting from a side part and following the curvature of the hairline. Use fingers to loosen the weave for a pretty finish. Ends are left loose creating a romantic tail that falls over one shoulder.

For straight hair, high ponytail hairstyles are a quick stylish option. To create this look, tease the roots and pull all hair back at the crown, securing with an elastic. Wrap a strip of hair from the bottom of the tail up and over to conceal the hairband. The look works with both sleek roots and volume.

For those with lots of natural length, a few braids are a great way to customize this classic look. Wearing a ponytail high on the head shows off your strands and feels youthful and fun. Create the braids first, tying off at the apex, then make a messy ponytail.

      <image:caption>10. Messy Ponytail

For the days between shampooing a tousled tail is cute, especially with waves or curls. Before pulling hair up, tousle it with dry shampoo to absorb excess oil and add a matte texture. Instead of using an elastic, try pinning your hair up in sections for a relaxed finish.

      <image:caption>11. The Criss-Cross Ponytail

Anyone can create cute ponytail hairstyles with this simple technique. Leave a section of hair on either side of your head for the twist above your low ponytail. Bring the rest of the hair to the back hairline and create a simple low pony. Make twists from the spare sections, criss cross them and wrap the base of the ponytail pinning the ends underneath.

      <image:caption>12. Center Parted Pony

A middle split works well with layered cuts, giving structure to face framing pieces. The part should only extend back a few inches from the front hairline, so that volume can be maintained in the crown. The loose edges make this a great short hair ponytail option.

      <image:caption>13. Weave Ponytail

Create a smooth, long, runway-ready ponytail with extensions. Simply pull your own hair back into a tight knot, then wrap the weave around, until the desired thickness is achieved and attach with bobby pins. Alternatively try a weave ponytail with bangs.

      <image:caption>14. Half Ponytail

A half up half down ponytail keeps hair out of your face and looks relaxed and feminine. The key to keeping it soft is not to use brushes or combs. Use fingertips to separate and pull strands back. Secure with a hairband or twist and pin. Partial ponytails are especially pretty with soft waves as shown.

Elegance and simplicity define this refined style. Before putting your hair up, polish strands with a flat iron and use a shine spray to add sparkle. When you style, leave a thick section out at the front hairline. Drape this swath along one side in a C-shape then wrap its ends around the base of the ponytail.

For a look that never goes out of style, try this curly ponytail. The combination of volume and coil creates luxurious femininity. Set hair with rollers or a large-barrel curling iron before gathering high on the head. For extra length, clip extensions into the underside of the style.

This look is a great way to incorporate layers or long bangs into a swept-back look. The loose braid running towards the crown adds volume and allows different lengths to be worked into the style piece-by-piece. The freely hanging tail keeps the look from feeling childish, especially when styled in tousled curls reminiscent of Brigitte Bardot.

African American women and others with extremely curly hair often wear their strands in humidity-resistant hairstyles like this high ponytail. Pomade or cream smoothed on roots gives control in black ponytail hairstyles. Weaves are used to add length, and can also provide striking colors like the bold red pictured here.

For a day when some additional styling is desired but you’re not trying to go all-out, try a loose French braid that stops at the nape. Then put in a pony holder and you’re good to go. This look can work for anything informal or casual. To keep it carefree, don’t use products.

For a French braid ponytail that will bring out your I-know-how-to-wail-on-the-guitar attitude, fake a faux hawk. Section off the top part of hair and add tight French braids that will lay flat on either side. Then tease hair as high as you dare.

This side French braid is full of romance. To get the look, work with a loose tension and medium sections of hair at the crown, bringing the braid along one side and down to the nape. Make it more unique and full of texture by choosing a fishtail braid to hold everything together. Add easy waves and you’re done!

The braid into ponytail trend can be interpreted in so many ways, but this is one is among our favorites. The smaller French braid at the crown creates a headband effect while the larger one gives some added visual interest. Keep braiding all the way down to create an elegant side braid.

With ultra-long hair, you can add a twist to the bubble ponytail popularized by Valentino. French braid all your hair from top to nape and secure. Then braid just a small top section to add as decoration to the bubbles, which are formed by pulling at loose strands for a rounded shape.

A French braid into ponytail look can add a lot of volume and body to your hair. A sea salt spray or texturizing spray will be the best way to get started. Next tease the back of your hair. Keep the braid low while pulling in sections of hair from your part. You’ll have full, flowing locks.

Braided ponytails are such a cute way to show off highlights and lowlights. This look is the messy bun’s new best friend. The braids are well-executed but not perfect. The long side bangs are kept wispy. The pony is just a little bit teased. Our guess is that you’re already trying this out right now.

For a French braid ponytail that has rarely been done before, start with a braid that progresses along a diagonal. You can do a waterfall braid, or like this example, keep the top a separate section. Next, mirror that angle with a second, swooping braid and secure both into a single side ponytail.

If you’ve got expert braiding skills, you deserve to show them off. If not, the trick is to be patient and only grab small sections of hair at a time. Pigtail braids allow for more volume in the cascading curls, as you can further separate the hair. Go for it!

Most likely, no matter how many pictures you’ve searched through, you have yet to encounter a braid ponytail like this. At first glance, you might not notice that the super loose sections are actually a deconstructed braid. The contrasting tiny braids show that this is the work of an artist.

For a formal style that is unique and classy, try a French braid that starts at the front and then wraps around a high ponytail. The sleek perfection of the styling and the volume at the crown make it perfect for a night out.

A definite update on the hippie vibe, braided ponytails give you that partly braided, partly straight hair look without trying too hard. In short, we’re going for modern style here, not festival wear or costume. Work with a pomade or wax while you are braiding to keep hair smooth.

This braid ponytail is not for the faint of heart. Tight cornrow-style braids at the temples with a perfectly straight high ponytail make for a fabulously confident style. Not too formal, this look can take you anywhere, from a super fun day to a sexy night out.

To get this look, part hair down the middle as if you were going for pigtails, then do waterfall braids, dropping the strands on the top instead of the bottom. Next, you can braid those dropped strands together, concealing the center part. Divine!

Wow—mad skills. This French braid ponytail is kind of incredible. Waterfall French braids are created in the center and on the very sides, then joined in between. The fishtail braid below helps to balance out the intricacy. Some work went in to this one, so get your practice on.

Rocking your braid behind your ponytail instead of at the front is an interesting spin on the usual look. Because you put in all that hard work braiding, don’t cover it up with a long tail. Shift it to the side for a look that is flirty and full of life.

If a carefree bohemian style is more your speed, look no further than a side braid with wispy flyaways for a messy touch. Instead of a normal French braid, this is playing with proportions by weaving a thin tight braid into a larger loose one. The result is a thoughtful detail that can’t be missed.

Although many French braid ponytail styles require longer hair, that doesn’t mean that you have to skip out on them altogether. By using a weave, you can create full styles that last and look realistic like the double French braid updo in this photo.

Take your cue from this messy ponytail if you want something boho-chic. Delicate waves frame the face, while loose curls add texture on top, wrapping up into a tiny ponytail at the nape of the neck. This can be your go-to choice for some extra activities or casual outings.

Go for the slicked-back high ponytail for that bold and glam vibe. It’s all about sleek lines, smooth edges, and a clean finish. It’s better fitted to short hair because, while it keeps everything neat and tidy, it’s still a strong fashion statement.

Such loose highlighted curls cascading down in the ponytail are great for shoulder-length locks. You will need a lightweight mousse or a curl-enhancing cream to define each curl and several bobby pins to recreate this wedding updo.

Want to add some hair accessories to complete the look? This sleek low ponytail gets an extra dose of sophistication thanks to the tucking of a floral accessory into the side. All hair must be pulled back smoothly and tied into a knot, and then you will be adding a delicate floral accent that brings the overall feel to the next level. This style is best for very formal events or anytime you want to appear refined and polished.

This intricate style starts off with a waterfall braid. Next bohemian florettes (braids that are pulled loose and swirled into a circle) are added. These are made from the sections you take from under the waterfall braid. The latter incorporates strands from the hairline for a flowy, elegant look.

Boho hairstyles can be interpreted in about five thousand ways—Old Hollywood Glam being one of them. Soft hair with full volume is what being a bombshell is all about. First use a salt spray or a spray made just for braiding. Then tease hair and create a loose fish tail. Pull at it for the maximum volume and pin the end under.

Half updo is one of the most romantic types of boho hairstyles. Additional tenderness and lightness it gets thanks to the crimped texture and a cute headband, made from real flowers. What an inspiring combination!

For a look that’s not overly bohemian, section off the top part of hair with two side parts and clip it up. Then make a low ponytail as slick and perfect as you can get it. Tease the upper section, create a chunky fish tail braid towards the nape of the neck, wrap a piece from the pony around it at the nape and fishtail the upper part of the low ponytail.

For an easy take on the trend, create a messy low twisted updo and add boho style accessories. The colorful hair looks harmonious with this imperfect, wearable look. A salt spray (used before you begin) helps hold the haphazard twists and braids in place.

Boho hair can walk the line between messy and perfect. We love interesting combinations of braids and buns, and this combo is definitely at the top of our try-it-soon list. The juxtaposition between the loose and tight braids looks super cool and shows off the dimensional color.

This chic hairstyle is so versatile. The fishtail headband and loops sliding from the crown towards the nape make it elegant, but the face-framing wisps of hair aren’t too formal.

Boho hair can veer as formal as you like. For medium hair, this is a great choice—because you’ve got just enough but not too much of length to work with. The wrap can be styled with a headband or like a topsy ponytail that you do not wrap through but hide inside the wrap.

This boho style is kind of incredible. Best for long hair, this braid is created with a series of loops that shape a chunky intricately plaited braid. The loose curls at the end blend well with the twists and twirls above, so if you’ve got straight hair, be sure to add curls first.

Cute braided updos should be your new favorite thing. To try this bohemian hair style, create a waterfall braid on one side of the head that drops the strands across your head instead down, along the length. Then incorporate those strands with the braid on the other side of your head. Lowlights and dark roots help the blond braids stand out.

An on-trend boho braid needs to have natural-looking texture. So don`t make your hairstyle too neat, leave it slightly messy. Part your hair down the middle (as if for pigtails) and save out loose strands in the front. Then braid, wrap around, and pin in place.

Part feminine and part edgy, this braided mohawk with side cornrows looks extra special because of the peachy ombre. The brighter color will stand out against the dark blonde (or brown) base no matter how you style it, and a messyDutch braid is definitely one to throw into the mix of options.

Accessories are a big part of any chic boho style. So let’s talk chains. Always plan your hairstyle around the chain you’ll be wearing. If it’s supposed to lay straight down the middle of your hair, than be sure to make a perfect middle part.

Don’t get us wrong. Boho hair doesn’t have to be complicated—it can actually be really easy! The style is more about the laidback, creative vibe than how many hours it took to complete. A side waterfall braid is a great way to achieve the look (and keep your hair out of your face).

Place a hair donut or a sponge at the ends off your fringe and start rolling it toward your forehead. Fix with pins.

Retro bandana hairstyles look especially good (and modern) in bright rainbow colors. Adorned with a Victory roll, they make for a head-turning look. It’s a surprisingly versatile hairdo element too, as you can use it with loose curly hair, an updo like this one, or even a ponytail.

It just so happens that many bandana hairstyles for girls come from the middle of the last century. So, there are many voluminous elements to them like this cross between a beehive and a barrel roll complete with a waved ponytail. You may have to use a hair donut to create such volume, but the principle is basically the same.

The beauty of pin curls is that they can be a part of any ‘do. The style in this photo resembles a basket of roses – numerous pin curls contained within a red bandana. And in the front there can be a fitting barrel roll or bumper bangs.

A fringe roll accented with a bright bandana looks not only cute but also special. It’s already more than just loose hair, but it’s not a hairdo that requires a lot of time and effort. Call it a perfect compromise.

Pin curls make bandana hairstyles look fancier. They also look charming in any color, but there is something special about fiery red locks swirled in a seemingly effortless fashion. Concentrated at the top of the forehead, they create a beautiful flaming crown.

      <image:caption>1. Formal Finger Wave Updo

You don’t have to sport a cropped bob and gelled locks to pull off finger wave hairstyles. This beautiful formal updo combines a killer beehive and loose finger waves. Creating this style at home will take plenty of time and patience though, as it requires styling both a beehive at the back and the waves to cover this elevated updo.

The beehive is created with backcombing and plenty of hairspray. Then, the waves on top are sculpted one-by-one, draped delicately over the beehive and carefully pinned. It goes without saying, this style is not for ladies in a rush and those without any hairstyling skills, but it’s a nice idea of a formal updo to recreate with your stylist when you need a special look for a special occasion.

One or two eye-catching statement waves are the best for ladies who don’t have time to create a full head of finger waves. Not only will it give your haircut a completely new look, it can also make a casual hairdo look formal.

      <image:caption>3. Long Luscious Retro Waves

These long finger waves completely repurpose the old-school technique with gel and fingers. It’s a modern long look done on dry hair with a curling iron. The larger the barrel of your iron, the larger the waves.

Clip a section of hair into the iron (the barrel is under the hair) and turn it about a half turn towards the head, pulling the freely hanging ends coming out of the iron to the right with a comb. This is necessary for forming the “S” shape of your wave. Hold for a few seconds.

Now work on the same section right under the turn you’ve just shaped. Clip the section (the barrel is on the hair) and turn your curling iron about a half turn away from the head (the opposite way), pulling the freely hanging ends to the left. Continue working down on the same section shaping as many waves as you wish.

      <image:caption>4. Finger Waves with Bangs

One large wave for your bangs is an easy and showy way to rock finger waves. By making just a few turns with your curling iron, you can create a stunning vintage style. Alternatively, roller set the section you want the wave on.

When the hair is set and dry, brush it and then press it with your hand and push a bit up against your head to see the “S” shape of the wave. Put a clip inside the “S” to shape the finger wave. Trace the curve of the wave and spot the next point where you can put a clip in the opposite direction. Let the wave set using a blow-dryer and add enough hairspray to make your wave hold longer.

If you have an impression that there’s only one style you can do with a mohawk, we’re here to prove you wrong. This unique mohawk uses a couple of pin curls at the top that blend into finger waves at the back. What a beautiful mix of colors and textures! Bright and showy, yet classy and on-point.

Slightly messy finger waves, rather than the usual neat rows, are the ultimate volumized style for short hair. These lush cherry-colored waves alternate in direction and size to add a fun edge to the look, as well as plenty of texture. Not adding a parting to this style, also creates a much more modern twist on the classic finger waves.

Curls don’t come any cuter than these. These pinched finger waves look perfectly molded, with not a hair out of place, whereas the bright pink and bleached blonde color make the vintage wave modern, fun and youthful.

Apply enough gel and use a fine-toothed comb when working on this style. Begin styling from the side part. Clip a section you are working on an inch away from the part. Put a comb inside your hair a few inches away from your clip and pull it towards the part and your clip, shaping a wave that elevates between the clip and the comb. Pinch the elevated piece with a wave clamp to define the ridge of your wave. Now add the next clip and continue working on your waves as described.

Finger waves can look just as good when combined with shorter curls as they do on longer hair, especially when they are done on African-American black hairstyles. In this case, the sculpted waves on the sides of the head create a great contrast with the full curls on top. Add curlers to the top section of the hair and set the whole style under a dryer.

Short finger wave hair, don’t care! These are much less catchy, but no less fashionable… Take a lock from above your forehead and rub some gel into it. Use a comb to press it flat along your hairline, then curve it out onto your forehead and back into your hairline. Take another lock of hair near from where your last wave ends and do the same. This clever technique gives the impression of one long finger wave, but it’s actually a number of shorter finger curls framing the face.

Just like the original 1920s style, these easy finger waves are featured on the timeless bob. Grab a wide straightener – yes, straightener, you’ve read that right. If you are doing finger waves on longer thicker hair, these are going to be dry push waves with a straightener or a curling iron.

If you fancy a unique style that combines not one but two decades, try pairing 20’s finger waves with 40’s victory rolls. This style will require some professional help, so book an appointment with your stylist. They will likely pop your bangs into curlers, brush the hair out once it has set and then mold the curls into waves. Even with the combination of two different styling techniques, this is a timeless look perfect for evening, formal and prom hairstyles.

The fishtail ponytail is a very chic, yet effortless hairstyle that does not require anything but your fingers! Start with textured hair, either loose curls or waves. Gather the hair to one side. Create a fishtail braid. You want to be sure you start low and braid tightly as you will not be using a scrunchy. You want to stop a few inches from the ends to let the curls show at the bottom. Now, you’re done!

The cross-cross bun is something that takes just some 10 minutes, but it will add design and sophistication to a boring low bun hairdo. Start with a half up half down ‘do, with the top section of your hair bobby pinned at the back. Next take strands of the bottom section, from the left and from the right in turns, bring them horizontally to the other side and pin. And finally make a low bun.

The halo bun is trendy and very tasteful for those who want something different in terms of casual updos. You are going to make a side part and start a lace braid along the line of hair growth. The braid turns into a twist behind the ear. Twist all hair to the ends and shape a cute bun at the nape.

Triple twisted buns are fun and playful! To create this style, you want to divide your hair into three sections. Avoid parting the hair! Create a small twisted bun with each section and bobby pin it. After you have completed all the buns, you may add a colorful hair bow or another hair accessory for decoration.

Using the remaining hair, create a simple chignon and bobby pin it into place. Taking the braids, wrap them around the chignon. You should not be able to see the scrunchy used for the chignon.

An updo hairstyle for long hair is a stylish way to tame your tresses. The extra length translates into beautiful volume. This is especially true with buns, which look full and elegant. Strategic messiness will further enhance the fullness and textural allure of the coif.

Taking your updo from average to amazing is as easy as teasing roots, twisting the length of the hair, pinning it in place and finishing with a delicate hair piece. Opt for an accessory with jewels to bring luster to your hairstyle. The bun on its own is casual enough to wear everyday, but the embellishment makes your hairstyle ready for special occasions.

Long tresses make for the best and the most voluminous buns. For a more refined finish to your messy bun, let the sides swoop down a bit and add a slight curl to your face-framing layers. It’s a look that will effortlessly transition from a busy day at work to a fun night out.

When it comes to easy updos for long hair, braids and a low ponytail is a quick style that looks a bit more complicated than it actually is. Thick and lengthy tresses can be plaited into some fabulous chunky Dutch braids. Then, the ponytail dials up the hairstyle’s sporty appeal. Go for bold colors to make the simple style unique.

Top knots and loose twisted buns are every lazy-girl’s go-to. And, there isn’t anything wrong with that. But if you want to turn your updo into a statement, use a fishtail braid at the back for a healthy dose of visual and textural interest. Plus, the highlights of balayage hair woven through the braid are simply stunning in such hairstyles!

A common annoyance of updos for long hair is strands falling out of your neat and tidy bun, despite how many bobby pins you use. One way to combat that, while also elevating your style, is to braid your hair first, then wrap it into a bun. The plait will help to keep all your tresses together when it is wrapped into a bun. It will also give some gorgeous texture to your hairdo.

If you love your wavy hair, show it off with a ponytail-but not just any ponytail. Elevate yours by wrapping a medium-sized chunk of hair around the base to create a sleek look. A little bit of swooping at the sides will finish the updo with elegance.

Braids can be super casual, but they also have the transformative power to make your long tresses polished and refined. Try a fishtail braid that follows along just one side of the head, and pull it back into a loose chignon. It creates an updo that is full of body and texture.

Loop the rest of the hair into a pretzel shape and pin again. The best part of this updo is it will come out looking a bit different each and every time you do it.

This updo looks complex, but it’s actually very quick and simple. Start by brushing all hair straight back. Then pull the hair into three ponys – first a standard halfway pulled-back pony, then another one beneath that, and then a third one. So, all hair is pulled into one of the three ponytails. Then twist each pony around your finger and secure with hairpins. Spray with hairspray and you’re done!

Braids and buns have been around for quite a long time now; this hairstyle draws inspiration from back in the day, when a tutorial was nowhere to be found. It’s actually way simpler than it looks, if you keep in mind that the strand for the braid is merely decorative and should be the last thing you do. Before finishing, just tuck the tip of the braid inside the low bun you have done previously.

Hair color serves many purposes, but none is as fun as making a bold fashion statement. When you’re ready to express yourself in a whole new way, color the lower section of your hair a bright hue while leaving the roots natural. When you pull your locks into a high bun, twist accordingly to show off the color.

Sweet and simple, this chignon hairstyle is easy to try. Start by brushing all hair straight back, then backcomb roughly. Pull hair into a low ponytail and then criss-cross and twist sections, shaping a messy knot. Secure each section with bobby pins until the hair elastic is completely covered. This style is a bit easier to pull off on damp hair. Plus, air-dried locks get that fun and messy vibe naturally.

Wondering how to do a messy bun that looks totally unique? Resurrect the 80’s crimped hair trend: crinkle your hair prior to styling it. If you don’t have access to such an iron, sleep with damp strands sectioned into miniature braids all over the head.

When you’re growing out your hair, you understand the frustration of not having enough reasonable style options. Low buns can save the day if your hair is at least chin length. If layers or select strands fall out, no worries – it just adds to the overall stylishly disheveled look you’re going for.

Again, if your hair is thin or not too long, try this variation of the top knot. Brush hair straight back into a pony, leaving a few front sections out to braid. Pull the braids back and gather them with the rest of the hair into a loose knot.

There is always something elvish in hairstyles like this. The combination of intense colors and boho hair jewelry in leather and metal takes us to another dimension.

You have two options for this hairstyle: first, your hair is really long; second, you are okay with using hair extensions. It is all about length here. You need enough hair for a thick inverted braid starting from the bottom of your head, and then even more hair for an epic donut bun on the top.

This style is ideal for girls with long hair who desperately need to refresh the neck area during sunny days but are tired of ponytails and plain donut buns. For beginners, our advice is to start with the braids, leaving the rest of the hair loose so that the ends of the braids can easily mesh to create the falling effect.

This one is 50% braid and 50% bun. Start a Dutch braid as you typically do, keep it lower and looser, and once you are halfway through it, roll it all in a messy knot. Repeat from the other side. Remember, the hairband will be showing, so you might want to match or contrast it with your outfit.

Messy is “in.” From celebrities to the everyday fashionista in the cubicle next to yours, messy locks have made quite an impact on today’s hair trends. By teasing your hair to add the “mess” and volume, you can achieve the great look like the one below. Remember not to over brush your locks – usually fingers work just fine.

Another hairstyle that looks much more difficult than it is, this look is simple enough for everyday wear but can still be fancied up enough for a formal occasion. Switch out the type of headband you use to determine how elegant you want the end style to look. A simple colored fabric headband is great for the office, while something with jewels or flowers will instantly make this ‘do fancier.

Complex-looking and lovely, this hairstyle works well on thick or curly hair. Simply pull the hair into a mid-height ponytail, leaving a section of side hair out. Braid the secured pony and twist into a bun. Then, repeat with the loose section, securing it by wrapping it around to crown the bun.

Sometimes elegant-looking updos are a bit more complex and take some time. However, they are still easily achievable. For this hairstyle, you’ll need to divide your hair into 3 sections. Backcomb the central section, twist it and pin. And here all the major twisting, braiding and pinning begins.

This updo is far from difficult, and it’s also casual enough to wear to school or work. However, if you have a fancy affair coming up, that is great too. The trick to this hairstyle is to purchase a hair poffer at a beauty supply shop. Honestly, a children’s slap bracelet works just as well if you can’t find anything else!

When you’re in a hurry in the morning, you aren’t going to be considering elegant updos that take a lot of time or effort. This style works best on long, straight hair and doesn’t even require any hair pins to secure it. How’s that for quick and easy?

In short, it’s ideal for all hair types, so give it a try. The Big Twirl is a throwback to elegant updos of eras past, and you can rock it at the office or save it for that next fancy gathering.

The bouffant is no longer relegated to just the top of the head thanks to hairstyles like the bouffant back bun. Be sure your hair is straight and smooth enough to get a flat front and a big back section. This hairstyle will be tricky with curly hair, so it’s better to use a flat iron prior to trying it out.

The most classic of all elegant updos, the ballerina bun can be styled into all hair types and lengths. This is another example of a hairstyle that doesn’t need to be 100% pulled together to still look gorgeous – wispy strands are just fine with this bun. The longer and thicker your hair is, the bigger the bun will be. It’s pretty difficult to avoid making this style look gorgeous.

When you think of beehives, the uber fashionable decade of the 60s quickly comes to mind. Here, you have a very smoothed out version of the classic 60s-inspired beehive that is accentuated with a sculpted side bang and a feminine silver bow placed low in the back and off to one side.

Arguably the best phrase to describe this floral take on the classic beehive is “immensely pretty”. With its candy pink color, soft chunky bangs and a twisted chignon at the nape of the neck, this beehive is perfect for a romantic evening on the town. The finishing touch of course, is the colorful flowers placed on top to resemble a festive crown.

      <image:caption>4. Pin Curl Beehive

Taking two separate hairstyles and combining them together is hardly a new practice, however, when the two styles in question happen to be very retro, the outcome deserves attention. That’s exactly what this pin curl beehive does, as it keeps its familiar shape until you reach the back where several pin curls have been placed. It’s finished off with short, chunky bangs that are tightly curled.

If you love the look of a beehive hairstyle, but don’t want to fully commit to it, the half up/half down look is a worthy alternative. Basically, the top half of the hair is formed in a basic beehive, but the back is left down and filled with soft curls. Deep, side-swept bangs adds a lovely finishing touch.

Perhaps the most understated way to wear a present day beehive is to keep it as simple as possible in the form of a ponytail. A low ponytail beehive is so classic and chic, that it’s perfect for the office and low-key casual outings. The slightly curled ends of the ponytail and side-swept bangs keep it looking fuss-free. The style is also a great base for an extravagant hair piece.

Creating different varieties of the same basic hairstyle is a part of the fun you are experiencing when interpreting your vision through your hair. This swirl beehive is a perfect example – it not only plays with shape, but also tricks the eye. The regular beehive is formed, but instead of the ends being tucked in, an open swirl shape is created.

If you want to channel your inner rockstar while you rock your beehive hairdo, then this is definitely the style for you. This edgy look features the tightly braided sides that are twisted together to form the base of the upper half of the hair that has been formed into a beehive. The lower half is simply straightened to keep the focus on the bouffant.

If you want to bring the beehive into the current era, it couldn’t get any more modern than this. This variation of the beehive is messy with a side-swept bang, but it also has just enough edge to make it editorial and fashion-forward. The embellished accessory added as a headband offers a feminine and festive touch.

This beehive is definitely not for the faint of heart, however if you have the guts and bold personality to pull it off, then give it a go. Everything about this hairstyle is extreme, from the color and style to the accessories, it’s as far from subtle as you can get. The high beehive is surrounded by big pin curls and a wide bang, while the pieces of black netting are placed around as an added accent.

Very similar to the half up/half down style seen in the pictures above, this is the same idea except the texture is added with soft flowing waves. The long waves in the back are complemented by the high beehive at the top and the straight bangs that draw attention to the eyes.

Braids and buns coming together sound like a winning combination, however, when you throw a beehive into the mix, things get even more interesting. A low bun is formed and offset by a set of braids that start along the sides and then wrap around the bun base. A neatly formed beehive and soft, side bangs complete the look.

      <image:caption>14. Wispy Red Beehive

Wispy hair is often dreamy and ethereal, perfect for adding a dose of whimsy to your casual style. That is the outcome of this wispy beehive hairstyle that isn’t too done-up or sculpted, but finished in a way that gives it a wind-swept look thanks to the strands of softly waved hair that escape along the sides, around the crown and nape.

The varying blonde highlights and the bejeweled hair accessory are the standouts of this side-swept take on the beehive. The bigger section of hair is formed into a beehive, the bangs are swept and pinned to the side, while the loose curls are cascading gracefully down from under the beehive.

Don’t think that just because you have short hair it’s impossible for you to rock a beehive hairdo. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth, all you need is a lot of teasing and hairspray. In this picture, bob-length hair is formed into a beehive at the top, while the lower part of the hair is straightened to show off the blunt cut.

Long-haired girls, this is the top-knotted style of your dreams. It is beautifully messy with a teased, high crown and a sexy side bang that adds mystery. The bun appears totally smooth and carelessly messy at the same time. So, this look is ideal both for casual and formal occasions.

This top knot bun is great for those who crave big hair. The front and nape sections are heavily teased, and the sides are featuring escaping wisps for added softness of the look. This styling trick is a good way to create thickness if you have thin hair.

Dreadlocks and box braids can also be styled into a top knot bun. These rich, burgundy-colored faux locs are formed into a very neat knot with a bang-like section that falls off to one side. The golden accent accessories look wonderful with this color.

When you want to make a statement, turn heads and also express your personal style, choosing a colorful, top-knotted style like this is the perfect way to go. The focal point is the back section, which is beautifully braided from the nape of the neck and all the way up to the crown. Once the upside down braid is finished, a messy bun is formed on the top of the head. The pastel colors of pink, blue and green are all the rage now.

Can you believe that this top knot is made from medium hair? Her locks are shoulder-length, and she is not afraid of experimenting with hairstyles. We, girls with shorter hair, should all follow her example… and her blog, of course.

It honestly doesn’t get any edgier or in-your-face than this. Deciding on a daring, bright red hair color and funky designs etched into the nape of the neck, opting for a top-knotted style such as this is definitely not for the faint of heart. However, if you like only the style of the knot without any extremes, it’s a good idea for short-to-medium length hair.

In terms of classic style, this particular version of the top-knotted updo is at the top of the list. It is so full of volume and cute (but not perfect) in shape, that you simply can’t leave it unnoticed if you have long hair. When styling, leave some soft, subtle wisps on the sides and at the nape of the neck.

Finding unique ways to incorporate braids into your top-knotted style is a part of the updo-styling fun. Here, you have three simple plaits braided as cornrows running towards the crown and a whimsical knot that crowns the style.

For those with long or thick hair, you need an updo that embraces the length and thickness of your strands, like this one. The bun is tucked and pinned in such a way that it looks voluminous yet not heavy. To keep the look interesting, you could also tease the crown for a little bit of height.

A great updo should be two things: easy to do and stylish. The messy knot checks both. A mixture of loose braids and wispy strands wrapped into a high knot makes for a cute updo with a personal touch.

This cute updo takes a simple braid and bun, and amps up the style tenfold. Start by flipping your head over and braiding the lower half of your hair up to the crown. Then take the top portion of your hair and create a bun that connects to the end of the braid.

Buns are truly diverse in their finishes. To keep things on the casual side, let there be some flaws in the style. It’s ok to have bumps and flyaways here and there. Pull a few pieces out and don’t worry if others tag along throughout the day.

An unexpected spin on the traditional top knot is the half-up style with bangs. A half-up half-down is a great option if you have extra long or thick hair that you love to wear loose but with a fun detail. Try your half up bun with bangs and a shiny cuff.

Not your typical top knot bun, this gorgeous braided up-do looks like it belongs to a medieval princess. Start by using a smoothing serum and gather your hair into a high pony. Secure with an elastic and braid your pony tightly. Simply wrap the braid around itself, or use a bun builder for fullness.

A bun is easy to achieve once you’ve had a little practice. The most popular method is with the help of a bun foundation that can be purchased for very little at beauty supply stores. For shorter hair, you can pull hair up into a pony, curl its ends and pin them to mimic a bun. It will be softer and more relaxed than a classic wrapped bun knot, but it’s undoubtedly charming.

Nothing says cute and casual better than a top knot bun with a headband or headscarf. It’s a cute look whether you’re headed to the gym or for a day out with friends. Prep this as you would a ballerina bun, but pin loosely with some stray sprigs of hair sticking out.

YouTube is a great resource when trying to master a new style. Look for tutorial videos and then just practice, practice, practice.

Top knots options are plentiful for those with longer or voluminous hair. However, finding a unique top knot bun for thin medium length hair is not impossible. Embrace your natural hair texture and see how creative you can get. Add angled braids to your half top knot to create an eye-catching look.

Where a ballerina bun features a sleek and smooth finish, a textured bun allows for some imperfection. It’s also a great option if you have curly hair. Pull your hair into a high ponytail, backcomb and then twist four small sections into mini messy buns. Secure each section with bobby pins and spray with a strong hold hairspray.

Undercut with a shaved design is a visual treat for the eyes, and it allows you to express your inner artist. High up-dos are the best way to showcase the style. Undercuts are often associated with shorter hairstyles. If you have longer hair up top, you can still utilize a simple top knot bun with short hair at the nape of your neck.

Part down the middle and then pull back into two slick sections. Make looped ponytails that’ll work as cute tiny buns.

This is a fancy version of the look with a sculpted bun, but a messy top knot will also look cool with those dimensional vertical braids.

With shorter, thinner hair, it can be extremely difficult to manage a style that mixes both braids and buns. But with a sock, flat, limp locks instantly transform into a cute hairstyle with texture and volume. Don’t worry about making yours too perfect – a messier look is better.

In recent years, we’ve seen a move toward foam twisters (as opposed to socks) when creating that classic donut shape. Those are available in most beauty and fashion stores – which can be monumentally helpful for girls with thin hair. For this look in particular, tease the crown to create volume throughout.

Despite its full, put-together appearance, it’s actually not so hard to make a sock bun – even for a wedding or black-tie event. This bun features sleek texture, draping side sections, a small bouffant and a hair wrap – fancy and flawless.

Not all donut buns need to have that same signature style where the hair is tightly pulled back into a neat coif. Rather, some of the sexiest and most creative updos can incorporate dramatic color variations and rows of braids.

You don’t need a YouTube sock bun tutorial to recreate this charming, sixties-inspired updo. Gather your hair into a high ponytail just above your crown. Leave a section for the braid; gently wrap the rest of the pony around a foam donut or sock, and complete by braiding the left-out section and wrapping it around the bun.

Just because the hairdo you’re wearing isn’t oversized, doesn’t mean it can’t be dramatic. With this reverse-crown updo, the two-tone hair and messy finish of the braids and bun will attract many admiring glances – no doubts!

Creating a big sock bun isn’t always easy on your first try. But if you have curly hair to begin with, the added texture is bound to make styling significantly easier. Don’t be afraid to let flyaways do their thing – messiness and a certain amount of undone texture won’t hurt.

Modern hair colors are not solid which works fantastic in updos. If you have a high contrast root fade try this braid into bun version that takes a popular (though not new updo) and brings it to the next level of chic.

This elegant updo is easy and classy – inspired by the idea of the good old sock buns but upgraded with texture and color resulting in a cool dimensional hairstyle. Prior to pulling your hair back, consider rolling a curling iron from crown to ends, brushing through the curls and finishing with hairspray. This will add mounds of volume.

A traditional foam donut updo tends to look particularly put-together, as its perfect round shape is ideal for fancy occasions. However, this type of style can be worn casually during the day as well – especially in place of the common, just-got-out-of-bed messy hairdo you tend to see at college and while running errands.

Ever looked at a picture of your mother or grandmother with a teased 60’s bouffant and wondered how you could possibly recreate it? With a sock, that round, wrapping, super done-up style is easily attainable. Just be sure to use plenty of hairspray to keep everything together.

If a messy undone bun isn’t your style, a voluminous bun is an example of how to make the look more put together and refined. Pro tip— updos with height will work in favor of girls with smaller foreheads.

Waterfall plaits seem like they require lots of time and technical skill, but they resort to the same method as a typical French braid. Use a flat iron if you don’t have naturally straight hair so you can really show off the lacy braid with a loopy knot.

If you think updos aren’t your thing, you probably need to get some long bangs! It’s shocking how they frame the face and add playfulness to any updo. Chin-length bangs drive attention away from big forehead or chubby cheeks. Plus, they grow out beautifully. And, of course, long bangs make boho, messy buns look just amazing!

“This textured updo is perfect for any occasion,” says hair guru Michael Gray, the creator of this hairstyle. Totally agree! You can adjust the level of festiveness by adding shiny accessories. If your hair isn’t so long, use a cheat code in a form of a donut bun maker. Let it be your little secret.

The infinity braid looks and sounds amazing, so it is definitely worth mastering (Here’s a good tutorial from YouTube). This sophisticated, braided masterpiece can be used to accessorize a messy bun, according to Michael Gray’s idea. It’ll immediately add mystery and style to your hairstyle, because little details matter.

Boho divas need good texturizing products to make sure their locks are voluminous and beachy. We recommend to pay attention to mousses for thin hair, texturizing finishing sprays and hair crimpers to create the desirable root volume. By the way, stylists recommend sea salt sprays because they make hair obedient and manageable; the whole updo can be secured with a couple of bobby pins.

Braids with beads are ideal for the bohemian-inspired look. Choose golden or wooden accessories to recreate this cute and elegant protective hairstyle. Strong fixation gels will help you achieve sleekness, but you can also make your bun look like a messy puff. Always leave room for fantasy because anything goes!

Braids have become good companions of updos, but nobody has ever blended a fishtail so flawlessly into a bun. The braid doesn’t wrap around the bun, but it’s a part of it! Really amazing!

Having fun with braids is a part of the experimental process when trying out different updos. Try a waterfall twist as a headband braid and lift the rest of the hair into a messy bun. With a small bouffant, this messy updo is going to look even prettier.

A basket weave braid uses more strands than a typical French braid, resulting in a chunkier and intricate-looking plait. You can also substitute basket weave with a Dutch braid and get another cute and slightly different style.

When your hair’s texture is the main feature, the style can be simple. Whether you have naturally curly or wavy hair or use a curling iron to create texture, the right curls are the most important element to creating the hairstyle. Once you have an abundance of loose waves placed throughout your entire head, simply guide them to one side to form a bun, and then pin it loosely in place.

Many bun hairstyles incorporate braids, making it somewhat difficult to choose a braided idea that stands out. This one, however, is definitely more modern. Finish the upside-down braid with a bun that has a braided base for a finished look.

The side position adds to the playfulness of this particular bun creation. It looks very lively and naturally cute due to its light texture and wispy flyaways. The fishtail braid is very carefully rolled up into a perfect seashell bun, though.

Balayage coloring and a large, loose braid prove they can go the distance and add some spice to an ordinary side bun. With a bun carefully placed off to one side, the updo itself is actually pretty simple, effortless-looking, and messy.

If you are blessed with naturally thick or curly hair, here is a way to wear a bun and show off your natural texture at the same time. The half-up, half-down ‘do is the best of both worlds, and this pretty style proves it. The half-up bun is wrapped into a seashell shape, and the rest of the hair is curled into perfect ringlets. The hair looks fluffy and very special.

A hair doughnut helps to achieve a good-looking, large bun with little to no effort. And if you don’t like any aids, here is our guide on how to make a messy bun with thin hair.

Thick cornrows braided close to each other give an elegant, invisible braids look, while a jumbo-size bun makes it really statement-making. You can wear this protective hairstyle for several weeks; mind the weight of the bun, which you will have to carry on your head every day, though. If you are not up to the challenge, opting for box braids that can be styled in more diverse ways can be a better option.

This updo is made from two different types of braids – a vertical French braid for the upper section of hair and a fishtail, wrapped in a bun, for the lower section. The way this messy bun rests softly at the nape of the neck pulls the whole look together.

The only thing better than a single bun is a row of buns that gives a Mohawk look to your updo. Great for shorter hair or medium-length locks, these tiny knots are fun and modern with just a hint of edge.

Buns with bangs are common, yet you rarely see them look this sleek and neat. The thick bangs are cut precisely above the eyebrows, with not a hair out of place. The bun is formed just below the crown and accented with a single pearl hair accessory that looks both romantic and feminine.

The striking brunette hair against the red lips and a matching dress is the main attraction of the look, but the rainbow bun’s sculptural volume demands its own moment. It has sort of a half-crescent shape that is smoothed to perfection with no messy strands or wisps of hair left out.

Pigtail braids pair with buns very well, creating a romantic hairstyle. Creating buns that mimic pinned curls echoes the loose, side-stretched loops found in braided styles.

A chic way to spice up a low ponytail is to turn it into a chignon. Positioned right at the nape of the neck, the twist bun features simple details that manage to create a unique updo. There is twisting around the base of the bun, as well as along the sides. Slightly loosen the hair that covers the crown before gathering it at the nape of the neck.

The actual bun is the focus of this style, so there is no need for any other elements to take attention away. Once placed into a bun, the hair is divided into three sections, backcombed, pinned, and tucked into thick rolls that create depth and dimension.

A great way to personalize your bun and add a little spice to it is to experiment with braids. Hair braided on one side is a cute detail that turns your basic ballerina bun into a fancy updo. There is also a single twist braid that goes around the bun. The final result looks effortless with just a little edge.

The best thing about a messy top knot bun is that you really don’t have to do much to style it, and the actual messiness is exactly what makes it so appealing. Style with no previous combing and pull gently at the bun when it’s finished to loosen some pieces more than others.

The highlights may be the first thing that catches your eye, but the interesting technique of the twist bun is what will have you doing a double-take. What makes this bun updo unique is that it appears to be effortlessly pulled together; however, upon closer inspection, you will see that the twisting, tucking, and pinning are actually quite strategic.

There are many details here that you might want to mimic in your own mohawk, especially if you want a more traditional rendition with a modern twist. The fade is on point, and that single shaved line is not only smooth, but it also makes the upkeep a bit easier – you’ll always know where to clean up and trim. Although you might think of spiked hair when you are considering this style, a mohawk with curls gives here a welcome feminine touch to the androgynous style.

Don’t get it twisted, it takes some serious confidence to pull off a curly mohawk. It takes confidence to even make it to the salon and resist bolting when the stylist picks up those clippers. But you know, there are always ways to fake a curly mohawk. You read that right: you can mimic the style without making the commitment. All it takes is a mohawk updo, which itself may require some hairspray, setting gel, and more than a few bobby pins.

It’s a sad fact that a lot of people still think the mohawk is strictly a male hairstyle, but that’s not the case. Besides, the masculine mixed with the feminine is striking, and on the right girl, a mohawk looks stunning. Still, you may want to add a few details to make it clear that mohawks are for women, too – like a shock of purple to liven up your curls.

If you can get past the nervousness and take the plunge, you’ll be left with a hairstyle that sharpens your bone structure, draws attention to your lips, eyes, and cheekbones, and makes you stand out like the fierce rock star you are. You don’t have to do anything outrageous with your hair, though. You don’t even have to dye it any eye-popping color. The sunny blonde ‘hawk with some well-placed highlights and thick curls is gorgeous. Also, this girl has a lovely hairline.

No, this definitely isn’t the feathered style of the ’80s, but look at her hair – it reminds us a crow’s wing, right down to the ebony color. Not all mohawk hairstyles for women have to be super curly. Straighten your strands, giving them some definition with flips at the ends here and there if you want to give your ‘hawk some personality.

You can definitely get artistic with your mohawk. This is incredibly well done, down to the shading in the middle, but let that tell you something: never let anyone who isn’t skilled come near your head with a pair of clippers. If someone messes up something like this, you basically just have to shave the sides of your hair bald.

Something about this style is reminiscent of the ’50s, especially in the bangs. That might not be the intention, but this look works. The color is simple, the structure is traditional, and the curls look natural – it’s like an everyday ‘hawk.

A curly hair mohawk can be many things. This one just happens to be elegant – and yes, you can likely mimic this ‘do with your own ‘hawk. If you need a look for a fancy function, this proves that you can look lovely with some careful styling and a bit of hair spray.

Even if your curls are somewhat short, you’ll find some unexpected length hiding in there if you straighten them a little. Spike and tousle with some mousse or hairspray, and you’ll end up with a grungy, gritty, gorgeous ‘do, just like this.

Although the faux ‘hawk got a little overdone when it first came out, it’s due for a comeback. This time, instead of being a fashionable cut for smart fellows, it should be entirely for women. How cute is this cut? Easing in with a faux ‘hawk lets you try out the style. You may never take the plunge, but with curls, spikes, and tousled tendrils, you’ll look so pretty.

A curly mohawk and a faux ‘hawk are really flattering hairstyles for black women. This is kind of a mix between the two, and it’s a structural masterpiece. She’s styled her curls perfectly, making them more like waves that swoop and feather over her forehead, where her bangs draw attention to her eyes.

Whether you’re uncertain about getting the cut or need some style inspiration to make your mohawk marvelous, you’ll have a new appreciation for the edgy, punk rock look after you see this. Longer hair makes for a voluminous mohawk, especially when you style it with curls. This style has some definite oomph!

Anyone can wear a curly mohawk and make it look good. It’s an excellent style for black women but also for women in general. Here’s another stunner of a faux ‘hawk. You can also get this look when your mohawk grows out, which means that if you like this look, you can go longer between touch-ups. The two-tone quality is worth mimicking, too – the rosy gold color in front is so eye-catching!

This one creates that eye-catching mix of feminine and masculine, resulting in the high fashion androgyny that can make any woman feel like a superhero. Would you ever make the cut? Don’t go thinking that there aren’t any curly mohawk hairstyles for rather short hair because that’s just not so. This particular ‘hawk is purposefully chopped to look uneven, so this is also another option if you want that grunge vibe.

This mohawk updo isn’t a fake. It is, however, quite long, which makes it much easier to pin, braid, twist, or otherwise style your hair into an updo. This one is casual, something you could wear on daily, but you can also create a more formal updo.

So, this is something else, huh? You might decide to dye your curly mohawk a vivid color. Go for it! You might decide to dye it the screaming canary yellow. If it makes you happy … go for it! However, you may also want to consider a slightly less … blinding shade.

This is neither a mohawk nor a faux ‘hawk, but it’s hard to tell, right? It’s actually an exquisite mohawk updo that was probably painstaking to perfect. The sides are slicked back and pinned into the tail of the ‘hawk. All told, this is a fab fake out if you want to dip your toe in the water before you take a swim.

Here we have more from a simple boyish cut, but all the other characteristics of Mohawks are respected: the roots are backcombed and stiffened with a stronghold styling product to shape the crest that is defined by color through its edges. And, on top, we have a distinct parting seperating the longer and shorter sections.

      <image:caption>1. Classic Shade

This classic take on the shade is a luxurious mix of dark reds and purples that mimics the lusciousness of ripe cherries. It’s a medium-intensity hue, not too bright and not too dark either. Slightly lighter burgundy hair color glints from the midshaft to the ends add dimension to the look.

      <image:caption>2. Warm-Toned Hue

While cool tones can create striking contrasts with warm complexions, they sometimes clash with your skin tone. If the contrast is too stark, your skin may appear sallow or washed out. For warm skin tones, a hair color with reddish undertones is extremely flattering. Explain to your colorist that you want the final result to appear warmer, rather than cooler.

In contrast, those with cool skin tones will look harmonious with a cool-toned shade of dark cherry. This shade has more violet undertones that pick up the delicate pinkish tone of the model’s porcelain skin. The uniform color beautifully reflects the light on the straight sections of the hair and adds enigmatic shades where the layers flick.

This magical hair color is a true shapeshifter! “Indoors it looks dark but when the light hits you see a pop of color,” stylist Elizabeth Rodriguez describes the color nuances. The soft waves fully demonstrate its potential when it changes in different lighting.

Rich, high-shine hair colors are instant confidence boosters! Just like the fruit which name it bears, this hair color likes it cool. Wash your hair with lukewarm water and skip heat styling whenever you can. And if you can’t – opt for the lowest heat setting.

These rampant curls are gorgeous on their own. And a deep multi-tonal color is a cherry on top. The variation in tones enhances the natural dimension of curly hair. Naturally, it catches light differently, and the dark lustrous shades can give your curls a bright, healthy shine.

For natural brunettes who want to minimize bleaching but enjoy a vibrant cherry shade, ombre is a great way to go. In this style, the roots are left darker, and the layers get brighter toward the ends. This technique guarantees a smooth regrowth phase, so you’ll enjoy your color longer.

A dark base color makes the finest canvas for all sorts of rich cherry highlights. Some wider streaks of color around the face in the lightest shade will brighten the complexion. Deeper, more saturated tones of highlights throughout the mane create beautiful color nuances.

Hair colors with red tones are notoriously hard to maintain. They are the fastest to fade out and call for color-protecting hair products and minimal heat styling. If all this sounds intimidating, opt for super subtle underlights in the chosen color to test the waters before you commit.

A solid brunette hair color might sometimes feel boring and one-dimensional. A face-framing balayage in a vivid shade will create a multi-dimensional effect that makes your mane look fuller and more textured. The subtle highlights around your face can soften your features and give you a glowing look.

To maintain the luster of your fresh color job, consider getting a gloss treatment. It adds a dazzling glossy finish to your hair and refreshes your existing hair color. This treatment also smoothes the hair cuticle, reducing frizz and making your hair easier to style and manage.

Fine hair might struggle to retain volume throughout the day. But with volumizing hair styling products and the right approach to coloring, you can always add dimension to your locks and make them visually fuller. The brighter front highlights and shadowy lowlights in a more intense hue add depth to this hairstyle.

The color seems to be melting and flowing down the locks in this lush look. The cherry color blends seamlessly with the natural hair color without harsh demarcation lines. This means fewer trips to the salon for touch-ups and a longer-lasting look. The rich, multi-tonal hues make the hairstyle fuller and more vibrant.

Girls with natural hair, who strive to grow longer curls, know that length retention can be a long and laborious process. Besides, it’s a pity that due to the curl, kinky hair looks three times shorter that it actually is. At the same time, a haircut is a way to render your curls a beautiful silhouette. Kelly Rowland’s layered haircut is a good example.

Now, no one said that you had to stick to the same boring old color with your extensions. Remember, this type of hairstyle means you can be 100% creative. Sleek locs in a variety of bold, daring colors will make a serious impression. Boho at its best.

At times, a full-on bun can seem a little too formal. Why not try something in the middle instead? Thicker braids with highlights and beads look effortlessly sophisticated in simple downdos. Wrap a side section around the rest of the locs and pin it down!

Many African-American women choose locs or dreads not just for their style but because they serve as protective hairstyles for natural hair growth. These looks allow your hair to grow freely while staying protected — all while you enjoy a fun, low-maintenance style you truly love.

How much yarn do you need for your locs? It depends on how long you want them to be. Normally you can complete your head with 1-2 packs of yarn which is great if you want to save money. Yarn loc styles are easy and diverse, while they do really look cool. Take this giant bun for instance.

Why try to stop time? Aging ladies may wear classic gray locs and still look utterly fantastic. Yarn dreadlocks don’t have to be long — short and layered dreads can take on the shape of the bob and be low-maintenance.

When choosing yarn for your dreads extensions, opt for acrylic yarn, not wool, as it will have a drying effect on natural hair. Medium-to-long dreads of one length is a great choice, but you can certainly play with layered colorful dreads or short locs.

Just because your rope twists are drying doesn’t mean you can’t style them while you wait. For this look, take a small section from the hairline and twist and pin to form a jumbo twisted side bang. You can choose to wear this style for a few days or undo twists once hair has completely dried.

Flat twists are a great protective hairstyle and quicker to do than singular strand twists. Nonetheless, untwisting flat twists will give you both curls definition and stretch. To create this look, split hair down the center and form a single flat twist on either side of the head. Tie off the ends with small elastics and add gold rings for embellishment for a beautiful look days before untwisting.

If you’re blessed with long tresses, this look can be worn with just a few chunky flat twists that are packed with shine. And the great thing about wearing these twists? Once these chunky twists are undone, your hair will result in a voluminous twist out style to rock for the next 3-5 (or more) days!

For a beautiful, hi-definition twist out on bob length hair, be sure to gently undo twists without separating the ends too much to create frizz. Part hair on the side and separate into two, then tie rubber bands to create single strand flat twists and finish with gold cuffs.

This is the perfect style for making a bold statement with your look. Begin by parting hair on both sides to create two chunky flat twists and secure with an elastic or bobby pin. Using a hair pick, lift roots on the front center section to create height and pin to secure. Finish by lifting the roots with a hair pick in the back until you achieve the desired volume.

Twist outs and pop of color are splendid ways to enhance TWA haircut. The steps of creating twist outs on short hair are basically the same. Still, the results are best when you start with damp hair. Apply a good amount of styling mousse or twisting cream to each section and allow to fully dry before unraveling.

If you want to make your frohawk stand out, rather than opting for slick-backed sides, choose to incorporate thin side twists. As for the remaining hair, ask for tiny-sized dreadlocks made using a sisterlock technique.

Turn your afro into this stylish Mohawk mullet by slicking back the sides and gathering hair towards the crown, securing it in place with bobby pins.

If you love your dark hair but want to try something different, use a temporary hair color up top while allowing your dark roots to still shine through beneath. For black women, any non-natural hair color is incredibly stunning, as dark tresses take on bold colors beautifully.

Mohawk styles for natural hair certainly aren’t solely about the cut or shape – you can have a lot of fun with vibrant colors, too. Purple is the hue of power and royalty, and so why not to declare to the world how fun and fearless you are? Dye hair a bright lavender all over, or just in a selected section. When it comes to Mohawk styles, this one is bold without being distracting.

If you prefer to wear natural hair short, then get your hair cut close to the scalp, but leave slightly longer curls up top. Your naturally tight coils will raise up for a mini mohawk that still allows you the convenience of short hair.

Braiding your sides close to the scalp is the easiest way to shape a Mohawk style for natural hair. Usually it suggests multiple thin cornrows, yet you can also cut down their number and make them larger like in the photo. These also feature fun Bantu knots at the ends.

Textured waves are a great fit for a distinctive hairline. They create a gentle, flowing texture that can soften the angular outline. The length and lived-in color are attention-grabbing, allowing the eye to take in different parts of the hairstyle.

Even shorter styles can be a great basis for an ombre effect, especially when you pick contrasting colors. Black hair beautifully transitions into caramel tips in this style.

If you’re not really into thin and tight ringlets generally offered during the perm treatment, opt for a more relaxed version of the classic ‘do. A soft, wavy look is a great alternative for your future salon visit.

Short permed hair is a nod to the ’80s voluminous hairstyles with a root-lifting effect and cascading strands. Keep the front section a bit shorter for a face-framing feel and don’t forget to moisturize those loose curls.

There is something undeniably beautiful in big curls that envelop your head like a fluffy cloud. This style is a perfect option for grown-out bangs, as you can easily hide them by twisting the shorter strands away from the face.

Elevate your bob haircut with a textured look that makes your hair appear naturally wavy from mid-shaft down to the tips. An eyebrow-grazing fringe is a good add-on to the glam since it establishes a notable movement in the front.

This Afro-inspired ‘do is a real find for short and thin strands. The style reintroduces texture and fullness, making your hair appear less flat and frizzy. The size of curls can vary, but it’s better to keep them small or medium-sized for durability.

A tapered nape is a common request for debulking the hair at the back of the head and redirecting attention to the textured strands on top instead. This graduation creates a layered effect that keeps the unruly locks in place without much effort.

The fusion of the two modern haircuts has never been so good! The style brings the edginess of the elongated mullet crop and the fluffy texture of the reimagined Edgar cut to the table. Paired with shaved sides and facial hair, the look is a whole new level of rock-n-roll.

If you want to put your curls in the spotlight, you better leave them as they are. After all, keeping things natural is a soaring trend in the grooming world today. To add some cool accents to the glam, however, introduce a clean undercut at the temple and nape area to reveal a catchy design.

For this crop, the hair is tapered in the back and along the sides to elevate the top section and emphasize its height. Of course, the style is mainly designed for men with thick tresses, but you can still try the look on thin strands to bring in some texture and create a fringe style.

The complex nature of this hairstyle makes it a great choice for those who aren’t afraid to experiment with their looks. The undercut starts midway to lift the highlighted top and accentuate the wavy hair texture. The shaved lines wrap up the glam with a delicate artistic element that should not be hidden under the thick pile of strands.

      <image:caption>12. Messy Hairstyle

This wash-and-go style is our favorite due to its low maintenance. It looks equally good on short locks and grown-out bangs since you can simply brush the strands away from the face or let them fall into your eyes for a carefree vibe. Use your hands to tousle the hair or scrunch it with a hair product for a more defined shape.

A fade plus a tousled top gives you a fashion-forward hairstyle that has taken over the grooming world lately. With this form, the wavy texture of your strands becomes more pronounced, saving some extra space for future hair growth.

      <image:caption>14. Short Fluffy Edgar

Don’t limit yourself to the classic Edgar cut versions that feature a longer top and shorter sides. This crop offers a one-length design in the front and all the way to the back where it’s stacked nicely to achieve a clean cut and introduce some shaved elements.

      <image:caption>15. Precision Cut

The defined lines that stretch from the temple area to the nape construct a focal point of this crop. They are masterfully blended with textured strands on the top that add fullness and movement to the cut. A gentle touch is generally enough to achieve a messy finish, but a good texturizing spray will do wonders with your locks.

If the temple area is your weak side when it comes to hair thickness, make it shorter to bring out the volume around the top. Use a touch of hair gel to style the front strands and achieve a spiky finish.

Instead of burning the ends to seal them, try finishing them off with bouncy curls. Just wrap the ends around curling rods and dip them in hot water.

      <image:caption>10. Long Side-Swept Crop

Long hairstyles for men are incredibly versatile, so you don’t need to stick to one cut all the time. If you have naturally curly strands, keep the length and sweep the locks to one side to mask the uneven hairline.

This edgy crop creates an eye-catching look that can also be very practical in hiding the widow’s peak with its bald corners. Just ask your barber to throw in some bangs that would cover the thinning parts, and you’re good to go.

For this hairstyle, brush the hair forward to make it fall down your forehead and cover the hairline. The shaved sides complement the look, enhancing the textured section. The straight-across fringe also draws attention to the upper part of the face.

Minimize the appearance of the pointed center by introducing a tousled style. You need to grow out your locks first and then decide which crop will suit you the most. The elongated top section will give your hair a carefree appeal.

The curtain hairstyle is great for broad foreheads and receding hairlines, as it delicately covers the balding areas and helps to avoid a flat look. A clean fade is a good add-on thanks to its clean shape and sharp lines.

To add some structure to soft waves and make the overall look more balanced, try adding geometrical elements to your haircut. This style has a clear-cut V shape at the nape, emphasized by a shaved line, and crisp shaved designs meticulously incorporated into the fade.

A low burst fade and a taper fade is a very organic combination that accentuates the natural shape of your head. The taper fade gradually shortens the hair and seamlessly blends the sides and back. With this fade combo, you’ll have a range of styling options, from casual to formal.

The traditional Caesar cut with a short straight fringe doesn’t leave much space for style experimentation. If you’re growing tired of the same look in the mirror day in and day out, spice up your Caesar with a side fade. This simple trick will refresh the look without changing its overall aesthetics.

A bold height, sleek styling, and structured sides, – this hairstyle has it all. The voluminous top of the pompadour pairs perfectly with the sharp contrast of a low fade. These cutting and styling tricks allow to elongate rounder, wider faces.

This hairstyle has just the right amount of edge and polish. The hair is cut uniformly short, with a slight nape and side taper. The back is distinctly V-shaped. The two bold shaved lines are the cherries on top of this striking look.

      <image:caption>6. Curly Crop

Keeping your hair longer on top allows you to showcase all the natural texture and volume of your curls. The creator of this style, stylist Arielle from LA salon Aanuko, notices the trend of people wanting “to start playing with textures and lengths.” The fade around the ears keeps the style neat and reduces the need for constant styling.

      <image:caption>7. Straight Hair Fade

Knowing and embracing your natural texture is the first step to a dapper haircut. Did you know that pin-straight hair may lay flat? A burst above the ear can add the much-needed dimension and structure. On the flip side, straight hair might show regrowth more quickly, so book those salon visits regularly.

      <image:caption>8. Curly Mullet

Mullets and side fades go together like PB&amp;J! The fade amazingly highlights the curl pattern, and the length perfectly complements it as well. Mind that curly hair tends to shrink upon drying. Account for that so that you don’t end up with a shorter-than-expected haircut.

This style is visually dynamic, with the right dose of edgy. The bold vertical strip of the Mohawk comes against the clean lines of the fade. The Mohawk’s height and volume can be easily styled in various ways, from spiked to slicked back.

      <image:caption>16. Mullet for Thick Hair

Rocking thick hair could be a blessing and a curse at the same time. Thick hair can sometimes blur the clean lines of a fade and add unwanted volume. Clearly communicate to your barber (or better yet – show pictures) to explain what you expect of your haircut. Properly thinned out, it will retain its crispiness longer.

The classic Ivy League haircut gets a modern update with the side fade. The Ivy League’s somewhat longer top gives many options for styling – try it slicked-back, combed to the side, or tousled. The fade complements it with a neat shape near the ears and nape.

      <image:caption>13. Choppy Fringe

An eye-skimming fringe with choppy ends is a go-to option for every hair fashionista out there. This type of bangs has an edgy touch to it, which makes the styling combinations truly fun. You can wear it with a trendy butterfly cut that removes the bulk from the length and commands attention to the cheekbones and jawline.

      <image:caption>14. Sleek Side Bangs

The side bangs open up the face nicely while creating a balanced look with the flipped layers. This is by far the most universal style thanks to its ability to frame the face and draw attention to eyes without sacrificing a delicious root volume. The sleek finish is best achieved with a flat iron and some hairspray.

A hush cut is a popular hairstyle with multiple layers that help to reduce the weight from the locks and achieve the desired movement. The crop often comes in tow with some wispy side bangs that also feature ear-framing pieces that blend the fringe with the rest of the hair.

      <image:caption>16. Subtle Bangs

Barely-there bangs top the trends in the Korean grooming world because of their soft and almost invisible texture. The center of the fringe is much thinner than the sides, which creates a wispy feel. This look is great for balancing out heavy locks and directing attention to the upper part of the face.

This taller, spiked, wide Mohawk extends along the whole scalp, showing a bit shorter in the back. The sides are rather undercut than faded, but the short side sections are blended with the spikes so seamlessly that we can definitely refer to a high fade here.

This style is better than any regular Mohawk fade, because it features the racing stripes! And we all know this makes you faster! The set of lines running along the sides and down behind the ear is a cool detail which only adds to this tall, dark, and handsome look.

Mohawks for men are all the rage, and we know why! They cross all cultural boundaries and set us free to express ourselves through our hair. This look with the sweeping textured length is reminiscent of a mountain range.

Getting shaven designs into the sides of your head has been happening for many years, and it doesn’t get old! Add a Mohawk on top, and you’ve got yourself a unique style! Longer spiked strands up top will hold well when set with a strong hold gel.

If you are a fan of the traditional Mohawk, a creative Mohawk fade won’t disappoint you either. This style, which combines both a Mohawk and a bit of a tail, makes us think of the ocean. Spiky on top and tamed in the back means more interested glances.

Mid fades and high fades open up particularly well in side part hairstyles, which can be also styled with Mohawk in mind. If you like Mohawk and want a modern cut style that looks professional, this is a good option to try.

Your faded Mohawk will look maximally close to the classic Mohawk version if you go for a high fade. The Mohawk itself can be rather short and neatly trimmed for the best balance of lengths and silhouette.

A Mohawk with a fade on the sides makes a great “all the time” style. If you like this particular cut, ask for a very gradual fade that blends any lines between the longer and shorter sections, and end up sporting this awesome look!

Choosing your own unique fade Mohawk can be a challenge. But perhaps you can take this one, tweak it, and make it your own design. A Mohawk, such as this, that fills in the space above the design definitely gives a more artistic appearance.

Coming up with ideas for a new style of an afro Mohawk is fun! This is a smooth fade that shows off style and modern fashion. Stripes in the sideburns are an extra special touch. The square corner of the hairline makes a bolder statement, and the contrast of lines and textures totally defines this look.

This short Mohawk is perfect for college students and other “on-the-goers” with very busy schedules. A short textured top gives you the freedom to get up and go. A classic edge around the face, including a long sideburn to the jawline hair, makes this a clean look that you can sport anywhere.

A wavy fade Mohawk is a great city look, whether you’re dressing it up or down. A smooth fade is the secret to a polished look. You can vary the length of hair up top – the shorter, the cleaner, as seen on this photo. The smooth line around the temples fades away and takes visual density with it.

Having a Mohawk with a mid-fade plus razor detail is pretty classy, right? This artistic look is business up top and party at the bottom. A gelled Mohawk, a smooth fade up the sides, and a few clear lines at the base of the neck equals a great look!

Thick hair guarantees a great Mohawk, and a bald fade along the sides gives a clean style that will go well with a t-Shirt or a dress shirt. It’s also best to give a V-cut nape to your Mohawk, so it tapers down and looks even edgier.

A mid-length curly Mohawk fade haircut is an incredible hairstyle – and not one that everyone can pull off. Luckily, a good stylist can make every look amazing, and this is no exception. The accurate square hairline offsets the soft curls, while the Mohawk itself reveals the wonderful natural texture that should be shown off.

If you’re still unsure how to style your long curls, keep things simple. For maximum bounce and definition, form tight ringlets with a curl cream and a diffuser. Apply your favorite leave-in or hair oil for shine and nourishment. Ask your barber to make your front section a bit shorter, letting your ringlets frame your face.

Pair your Afro with a high taper fade, featuring a clean-shaved line at the front, sharp sideburns, and full beard that complement the look. The style is a modern variation of classic round afros that were popular in the ’70s and now have a major comeback.

Aging with grace is a real art. So why not use your mane as a canvas for color experiments? Ask your barber to blend your grays nicely throughout the length to match the base. This will ensure a subtle transition between the shades.

The short bangs and reduced weight in the back make the cut extremely flattering, especially if you have heavy locks and don’t know how to shape them. Lifting the hair a shade lighter and toning down the base will soften the blonde to a prettier hue and freshen up the look.

A pixie bob is a smashing combo of the two most sought-after styles for short locks. The rounded shape softens the crop that hits your ears. The hairstyle will look flattering on long faces with high cheekbones since it frames the upper part of the face and gives much styling freedom.

Bright colors can become a breath of fresh air for dull and lifeless locks.

The A-line bob gives your locks an enviable volume and frames your face perfectly. If you have naturally straight tresses, you can either use a flat iron to enhance the sleek look or use a blow dryer with a round brush to give your crop some bounce. Either way, the classic form will never let you down.

The precision cut with blunt ends is a texture-inducing style with a modern touch. It looks simple and classy, shaping the locks nicely even though they lack volume and suffer from flatness. Wear the hairdo straight or wavy to switch between a sharp glam and a softer style.

A layered bob is more than a haircut. It’s a sure way to restore your confidence, enhance your natural beauty, and show off your hair texture without any dramatic changes. Start off with only two layers to see how the look works for your hair type and length. A swoopy fringe with soft graduation is also a great add-on.

      <image:caption>1. Tapered V-Shaped Cut

Many elements contribute to the soft geometry of this hairstyle. The tapered sides form a distinctive V shape in the back which is strongly supported by blonde highlights that stand in stark contrast to the base color. And the tail, of course, creates an elongating effect. When braided, it also adds an interesting texture.

      <image:caption>2. Short Shag

The style complements the shag aesthetic in every respect – it’s edgy, rebellious, and confronting social standards. You will typically see the longer piece in the centered position, exuding right from the middle of the nape. But this stylist creatively placed it slightly off-center and at the ear level. The thin braid unexpectedly peeks out of the choppy textured layers.

      <image:caption>3. Wavy Mullet

Wavy hair, when cut short, regretfully can’t display all of its gorgeous texture. And not everyone is ready for the maintenance that medium or long hair brings. But a mullet hairstyle with an elongated nape section can be just the style for you. Try a mullet with tapered sides and subtle highlights like the one in the picture for maximum wave enhancement.

      <image:caption>4. Spiky Haircut

The long skinny braid gives this otherwise regular haircut an interesting spin. To recreate the look, apply a strong-hold gel or wax to the longer hair on top. Use your fingers or a comb to create spikes. You can make the spikes uniform or more random for a messy look. Use a bit of styling product to smooth and define the tail.

This stunning hairstyle is a festival of texture and contrast. Large, piece-y curls with a wet finish create enviable volume and rich texture. They highly contrast with the slim braid that starts closer to the crown. This unconventional placement catches the eye, making the hairstyle one-of-a-kind.

      <image:caption>6. Classic Tapered Cut

Even the classics can come with little surprises. Spice up the traditional tapered cut with a baby tail. Ask your stylist to keep a small section of hair at the nape of your neck longer while trimming the rest of your hair to a shorter length. This will make that piece more noticeable as it grows.

The longer your tail gets, the longer haircuts it can complement. And just like the rest of your hair, your long piece will benefit from proper care. Use a good conditioner to keep it soft and manageable. Occasionally trim the ends to prevent split ends and keep it looking healthy. You can also use styling products to define and smooth it as it grows.

Express your individuality and creativity by getting your tail and bowl cut done together. Use styling products like texturizing spray or sea salt spray to add some grit and volume to your bowl cut. This will create a contrast with the sleek long section. Consider adding some highlights or a splash of color to either the bowl cut or the long piece. You could dye it a vibrant color while keeping the bowl cut a natural shade, or vice versa.

“I usually post the front before I post the back but, in this case, I think you can understand why this is the obvious choice,” barber Russell Cordeiro proudly displays his work. The clean taper fade at the lower section of the nape creates a perfect backdrop for a well-executed, sleek braid.

Stubborn, stiff hair that sticks out can be tamed with a down perm. This salon treatment reduces hair volume and creates a more controlled look. A perming serum will restructure keratin bonds in your hair to minimize puffiness and create a sleeker appearance.

The classic wolf cut gets a new rendition on Korean soil. It’s still super textured and a little messy around the ends but with a pinch of polish. This wolf haircut features wispy layers with abundant crown volume. It slightly tapers down, grazing the collar.

Ethnic Asian hair is typically straight and thick. But what if you fancy a curl in your hair? Spin swallow perm is a trendy technique that employs alternating outward and inward “spins.” It results in a mixed curl direction for natural-looking curls.

The two-block haircut has become a staple in men’s hair fashion. It clearly contrasts a longer top with shorter sides and a back that are typically faded. The top can be styled with a middle or side part.

      <image:caption>6. Textured Crop with a Fade

Texturizing is a popular technique across the globe thanks to its ability to create subtle layers and add dimension to a haircut. This technique can be applied to practically any hair type, except very thin, fine, or damaged hair.

      <image:title>Leaf Perm</image:title>
      <image:caption>7. Leaf Perm

For a subtle flowy effect on your hair, opt for a leaf perm. True to its name, it crafts leaf-shaped waves that gently curve outward and inward, mimicking the organic shape of a leaf. It’s often used to enhance the face-framing effect of a haircut.

      <image:caption>8. Layered Cut with Highlights

Dark, one-tone strands might lack the desired dimension sometimes. Layering lays a solid foundation for a more textured look. But you can push the effect even further with gradient highlights and styling that enhances the choppy texture of the cut.

      <image:caption>9. Off-Centered Part Haircut

This parting style splits the hair into two sections that approximately amount to 60% and 40% of the hair mass. Unlike a middle part, it supports a subtle asymmetry. It makes the overall style more relaxed and less intentional.

This hairstyle charms with its airy, feather-light texture and a light blond shade. If you aim to achieve this look on straight dark hair, you might need several sittings to have your hair bleached, toned, and permed. It’s best to discuss the details with your hairstylist to avoid mishaps.

If you love the look of the traditional curtain hairstyle but think it’s too strict, you might like how a Korean variation feels. It’s flowy, with light volume and a less rigid part. The bangs typically reach slightly below the eyes and allow for a lot of movement.

      <image:caption>12. See-Through Bangs

Airy see-through bangs might require some changes in your hair care regimen. Since they sit directly on your forehead, they tend to get oily quickly and require more frequent washing. Avoid overloading your bangs with products to maintain their lightness.

A flow cut is universally loved for its face-framing capacity. Look how the flowy bangs envelop the forehead and gently skim the cheekbones. The Korean variety often features soft yet defined layers and a longer nape section for a fuller, fluffier finish.

“AS perm” stands for “airy and soft perm” and airy and soft it is! This type of perm focuses on crafting an outward curve that brings about a natural face-slimming effect. It is layer-friendly and can be air-dried or lightly styled for a polished finish.

      <image:caption>1. Disheveled Taper Cut

This look offers an effective combination of different lengths, adding texture and volume to the whole glam. The back and the sides are cut shorter just above the ear to achieve a clean form before it merges into a longer top section. To make the layers even messier, apply some hair mousse and work it through the strands by scrunching them with your hands and fluffing them up a bit.

      <image:caption>2. Taper Fade with Flipped Top

A tapered style like the one in the picture below is a true gem for thick locks, as it removes the weight along the sides and keeps the back of the head trimmed for a cleaner look. The top section is layered throughout to create a seamless transition between the lengths and introduce elongated sections at the crown and in the front. Those strands are brushed up and secured with a hairspray for a long-lasting effect.

Here is just another proof that TikTok trends can inspire young and old guys alike when it comes to hair ideas. The medium-length crop is shaped with a curling iron to achieve a nice flip at the ends. The hair is then brushed gently to smooth out the curled pattern and finished with a lightweight hairspray.

To enhance your curly hair texture and shape it neatly around the head, consider a tapered style as your next hair styling inspo. Herein, both sides and the top are blended for an effortless yet polished look. Make sure you keep your ringlets defined with special hair products and styling tools. This will make the crop more touchable and sophisticated.

If your locks lack texture and movement, ask your barber to give you a tousled and messy touch with scissors or clippers when working with your top layers. Blow dry your mane with a round brush by gently lifting the ends upwards and shaping them like wings. The shaved sides add an edgy appeal to the look and bring out your crown.

Pro tip: blow dry your hair with a cap on to get an even flippy edge.

Slick-back haircuts work fantastic with beard styles, as they provide a perfect balance between boldness and sophistication. If you wish your hair smoothed back rather than loosely combed back, use a men’s hair gel for styling.

If you aim to give your haircut just a bit of a refresh, go for a subtle taper at the sides or/and the nape. It doesn’t need as much maintenance as some types of fades do yet still makes your hairstyle look sharp and edgy.

To recreate this stylish look at home, you should follow these simple yet working recommendations. First, use a tiny amount of hair pomade, giving your hair a healthy shine and a needed hold. Then, brush your hair with a comb by giving it a slight wave shape all the way back. Finish with a hair spray for extra hold. And don’t forget to request a taper fade with graduation the next time you visit your stylist.

For a lightweight and voluminous slick back like this, you may need to blow-dry your hair with a round brush, lifting it at the roots. But first, apply some product like a pomade or clay with a matte finish to make your hair stay in place once blow-dried.

This haircut requires you to grow longer hair at the top as you will need it for creating this messy styling. As for the rest of your hair, make it tapered or even shaved at the sides and nape, adding a little accent with an undercut design.

If you don’t mind disconnection in haircuts, you would love this edgy bald fade style with a longer slicked-back top. You can make it swept in one direction or create a distinct parting line, and finish it all with accurately trimmed facial hair.

Mid-length hair looks awesome when slicked back loosely, so if you’re considering a new hairstyle, we encourage you to give this combed-back mullet a try. While it’s a great way to take your hair away from your face, you can still emphasize your hair’s volume and movement by giving it a little tousle.

If you want something statemental, shave half of your head up to the very top, keeping some length for an iconic slick back look. The longer length you leave, the more styling options you will have, as you may be able to gather the strands in a man bun or a ponytail.

You may need a high-quality hair gel or mousse to be able to achieve this styling on your own, but it won’t take you long to make it like a pro. And, if you ever get tired of this super sleek and stylish haircut, which we seriously doubt, you can feel free to grow out the top while tapering the sides.

This hairstyle features pretty thick locs that grow and mold themselves organically. They come in varying sizes and at different angles, creating a beautiful textural effect. The best part is the well-matched cuffs and charms, like the Eye of Horus – they tie cultural pride with a personal style.

The stunning look of a burst fade combined with short locs is almost too good to be true! It’s a high-contrast hairstyle with neat, softly curved sides and a textured top. The hairstyle is low-maintenance, fashionable, and perfectly structured.

      <image:caption>3. Layered Look

It might feel surprising, but the formation of such cascading locks comes with minimal manipulation. Do not combine sections or force uniformity onto your locs. This will ensure that they are differentiated in size and shape. If two strands start to lock together, gently separate them with your fingers.

      <image:caption>4. Thin Locs

Thinner dreadlocks have a more fluid and bohemian feel about them. They are lightweight and more flexible than thicker ones. Wash them regularly to prevent build-up, as that can clump them. If chunkier sections begin to form, separate them while they are still damp.

Thick dreadlocks, also known as “fat dreads” or “Congos,” are formed when smaller dreadlocks come together. Allow your dreadlocks to join at the roots to create thick dreads. They will eventually fuse into larger sections.

These short dreads look super neat and well-groomed. The thick hair adds to the density and volume of the hairstyle and boasts a fluffy, touchable texture. The sharp hair and beard line-up highlights the luxurious natural texture even more.

      <image:caption>7. Two-Strand Locs

If you want to switch up your look for some reason, you can totally retwist your natural locs as two-strand twists. It helps to give them more definition and uniformity. Keep in mind, though, that it temporarily changes the freeform aesthetic until they loosen up again.

It’s one of those styles that hypnotize with their wild, untamed energy. The thick, textured locs stick out in all directions. They create a full look with a lot of volume and character. A clean line-up keeps it sharp, complementing the rugged style with a touch of polish.

      <image:caption>9. Dyed Freeform Locs

If you’re planning to add a dash of color to your locs, you can definitely do so. The dye will tighten up your locs. But it’s best to wait until they’re mature to avoid damage. If you like your hair dyed first, then color it and wait a bit before getting locs so your hair can rest. Either way works, but dyeing mature locs is a safer option because they’re a lot stronger and less likely to break during the coloring.

      <image:caption>10. Waist-Length Congos

Caring for waist-length Congos can become quite demanding, bringing the toll of weight and thickness into play. They require regular washing, drying, and moisturizing to prevent build-up and breakage. You would also have to monitor scalp tension from the weight. It’s doable, but it would take a little more patience and consistency.

      <image:caption>11. Semi-Freeforms with Cowries

When you want to attach cowries to your locs, grab a tiny hair tie or thread and thread it through the opening of the cowrie shell. Wrap it around the loc and secure it tightly, so the cowrie doesn’t slide. You can also install a metal loc cuff or clip to hold the shells for an easier option.

This hairstyle beautifully blends locs with a fade! A low fade works well with the definition around the sides and leaves your locs to grow free on top. A mid fade or high fade can work too, depending on what look you’re going for, but just be sure it blends smoothly into the locs.

We all know bleaching can damage our hair. Safer bleaching practices include using milder bleach and applying it sparingly to avoid over-processing. Deep condition before and after to keep your hair strong. Also, avoid bleaching too often – your locs need time to recover.

Gray blending works great with highlights, so you don’t have to go straight into cold tones, making it a great transitional color. The cut is done in two levels, and the short length undercut makes hair much more low maintenance.

Maybe you’re not ready for a short pixie yet? Chop your long thick hair above your shoulders. This look is a perfect all-rounder. It can be styled up, worn with volume down, or tucked behind the ears for an off-the-face open look.

What’s nice about this look is that it has the perfect color and shape to draw attention to this lady’s eyes. The soft side-swept bangs and sideburns softly hug the face, while hair thickness is effectively managed. Warm brown and a choppy pixie style is a beautiful combination!

Sometimes, feathered layers really help to remove excess weight in the hair. Women with thicker hair do appreciate this: less time blowdrying, more time enjoying life. Note how the feathered layers add movement and texture to this medium hair.

Give your curls extra zing with a sassy rounded bob haircut. The peppery tone and the natural curls are simply stunning and make a fun, playful hairstyle for ladies in their 50s. It’s also a mid-length cut, meaning that on lazy days, she can just tie hair away, and it will still look beautiful.

Short pixie already translates as freedom for women with thick hair, but the shiny caramel tone that beams in the sunlight enhances the look even further.

One way to sport the flippy bob is to curve the top layer inwards while leaving the bottom section flicked up at the tips. This technique introduces more texture to the look and makes your locks appear effortlessly chic.

A flippy hairstyle doesn’t have to be sleek and smooth. You can combine this look with a disheveled hairdo, long layers, and side-swept bangs. The curved edges will create a dynamic feel that can be maintained with hair rollers for maximum volume.

When your tresses fall down your shoulders and reach a collarbone area, there is not much you can do to play with the length. A flirty hair flip, however, will lift your locks at the tips, creating a subtle curve to the sides.

Emo hairstyles are back in fashion thanks to their timeless quirkiness and unique color choices. The popular black-and-pink layered look with jagged edges and overgrown bangs swept carelessly to the side gives the ultimate nostalgic feel.

      <image:caption>3. Curly Shullet

When a classic shag meets modern mullet style, you get a perfect blend of both looks, known as shaggy mullet. The cut works great for naturally curly tresses, as it sets your hair texture free, featuring a long trail of ringlets at the back of the head and a trendy mini fringe at the front.

Elevate your modern mullet with a side undercut and dip-dyed ends. Lighter hair tones will look good with earthy color accents for a more natural transition between the hues. For a slightly more personal touch, match the bright tips with your eye color.

Blonde roots with a darker base color create a high-contrast look that instantly draws attention to your locks. Keep the haircut simple and neat to not overwhelm the glam with complex forms and designs.

This look is both cute and bold because of the vibrant color melt and effortless styling. The wow effect is achieved with the help of neon shades that shine through the length. Soft waves only add to the depth and lived-in dimension of the style.

A layered haircut with sharp, pointy ends is a statement style on its own, as it lends some fullness and texture to your mane. But just in case you want to reveal your bold side and fiery personality, ask your hairdresser for this ombre look.

A short crop doesn’t have to be plain and boring. Take, for instance, this version of the inverted bob, featuring a stacked back and elongated side strands that reach the shoulder level. A brightly colored fringe contributes to the overall edginess of the style.

If you have naturally dark locks and don’t want to dramatically change your style, throw in some color to the hair section just below the top layers. It will create a seamless blend of hues and let you showcase your bright strands whenever you like.

      <image:caption>1. Waves with Temple Undercut

Neck-length wavy hair and a temple undercut are an instant killer combo! The laid-back vibe of flowy waves mixed with the undercut’s clean lines around the temples is perfect. It works amazingly for casual hangouts and for polished looks alike. Plus, it’s a breeze to maintain, keeping your style fresh without too much fuss.

This mullet is the maximalist’s obsession. The star of the show is curly dark hair with a shorter, textured top flowing into a longer nape section. Golden blonde underlights peek through, adding dimension and a pop of brightness. An imaginative temple undercut with a wave pattern brings an edgy, modern twist to this classic-meets-cool look.

A striking crop, this haircut is meant for strong contrasts and artistic styling. A clean undercut sets the solid foundation, and twisted braids fall from the top of the head to enhance the structured yet relaxed look. The precise lineup and neat ends of the braids lend a unique touch.

      <image:caption>4. Undercut Man Bun

Some hairstyles really need an undercut to be in play to create an edgy feel. An undercut adds a clear-cut definition to a man bun and lets your scalp tattoos peek out for a one-of-a-kind style. It accentuates the bun as the focal point and reduces the bulk for more manageable styling.

      <image:caption>5. Mullet with Side Undercuts

Side undercuts can range from subtle, barely-there looks to high disconnected designs that reshape the way your hair falls. The latter is an excellent choice for a contemporary mullet hairstyle as it helps to form the signature shape. This style leaves the sides clean, with a shorter fringe section combed up and away and a long, flowing nape section.

This haircut combines a daring undercut with a high, voluminous puff of natural curls.

It adds precision and gives the style a polished feel.

Bun styles aren’t the only option to tuck your tresses away when you need them out of your way. A sleek French braid that runs along the back of your head neatly holds the rebellious locks. A pristine skin fade brings the braid into focus for a modern Viking look.

This eccentric hairstyle marries two popular haircuts – a high, sleek pompadour and a dynamic mullet. Although both styles have a distinct retro feel, when blended together, they produce an ultra-modern look, enhanced with side undercuts. This combo effectively adds height to a rounder face and creates more volume around the jawline to balance off heart-shaped faces.

This hairstyle embraces contrasts in a subtle and pensive way. The side-swept curls are not overly voluminous; they are rather smoothed down with a hair product for a more subdued look. Right where the locks are tucked behind the ear, a clever undercut with two parallel shaved lines is showing.

      <image:caption>10. Man Bun with Fade

Thick dark hair is capable of crafting very graphic looks. Take this man bun with a drop fade, for instance. The top with its subtle matte sheen is smoothly combed back into a neat bun. The fade creates a touchable texture and outlines the top section with geometric precision. The look is enhanced even further with an elegantly trimmed beard.

This mullet combines a wild texture with a retro spin. The top is all about mussed-up curls, while the understated fade on the sides keeps this look shapely. But truly, the real star here is the cascading curls down the back that create dramatic length and movement. It’s a modern take on the unapologetically cool style.

Ponytails can be extremely handy when you want to keep your hair up but still show off your locks. In this style, the top section is smoothed back and tied in a classic pony that cascades down the shorter back locks. The sides are left clean and smooth to play up the soft curl.

This is a classic style that works best for men with straight, fine hair. The beard is trimmed neatly and kept close to the skin, allowing for more breathability and easy maintenance. You can achieve this look using a fine-toothed comb and a small electric razor.

It’s like a Mohawk without all the effort. The curvature of the hair shape shows fun and flexibility, while the beard is full-bodied but still expertly maintained. A fine-toothed comb, hair oil, and some matte wax will make this look complete.

If the crown of your head has gone gray but your beard hasn’t caught up yet, don’t be afraid to let that contrast show. This long, luscious beard is well maintained with regular brushing and hair oil massages, while the hair is slicked back with a lightly gelled comb.

Jet-black hair has something truly unique about it. Silky texture and richness draw attention to its deep shade. By adding white pieces to a dark base, you introduce a silvery sheen to your mane, creating an iridescent effect. This cool hue will work well on neutral and fair skin tones, enhancing your complexion nicely.

Dark hair colors offer a perfect base for style experiments. For this dimensional, sun-kissed look, the hair is toned down with medium neutral brown and macchiato shades to lift the original color a bit. The lighter strands present a balanced mix of pina colada, butternut, and sandy blonde hues with a touch of ashy undertones for a lived-in texture.

To keep your locks healthy and shiny, combine the lightening process with a protective salon treatment. This will ensure that your locks will look glazed and frizz-free.

Short layers and choppy bangs transform chin-length looks from demure to daring. Disconnected lengths — short on top and longer underneath — have a bold, punk-influenced feel. The top layers remove bulk from the sides and can be worn sleek, tousled, or even spiked into a mohawk. The shape opens the face, accentuating the eyes and cheekbones for a flattering, edgy variation on the bob.

Bangs and warm weather don’t always work together, as those who live in year round warm weather climates will testify. In hot and humid conditions, your fringe can get stringy, sweaty and sticky, which is not much of a feel-good combo. The surprising solution is to go shorter.

Bangs that sit an inch or so above the brow are less heavy, less prone to curling, and look piecey, not stringy when they separate. The trendiest shapes go micro, sitting an inch or less above the brow.

In the summer, bangs can be frustrating. They get sweaty, frizzy, and flyaway. But as the weather cools, adding some fringe is a fun and easy way to update your look. Keep your bangs short and piecey and you’ll get the face framing benefits without the hair in your eyes.

The wonder of long bangs are well known and well worn. They look great on some people. But, like any beauty trend, they don’t work for everyone. If you’ve embraced the long bang you may find yourself fighting forehead grease, feeling unpolished, or constantly trying to get those wispy strands out of your face. You may think the solution is to grow out your new fringe. But I’ve got a better idea. Go shorter. Yes, short bangs are really magic.

Short chppy bangs fringe accentuate your cheekbones. By lifting the design line up and away from the brows, the fringe makes eyes look bigger and cheekbones appear higher and more defined.It can also elongate the face. This is especially true of choppy bangs that are shorter through the center and longer at the edges. Shorter bangs also minimize strong noses and flatter square jawlines.

If the commitment of bangs concerns you, that’s another reason to go choppy. Not only will a dead straight line be the neediest in terms of trims, it is harder to style perfectly straight one-length fringe. With choppy bangs, they are meant to be messy – no harm, no foul!

Today men’s outgrown short haircuts should be styled slightly disheveled. Zac Efron’s hair in this photo looks lively and spontaneous, but not sloppy. This is what distinguishes a nice disheveled men’s hairstyle from a messy look.

An undeniable advantage of elongated haircuts is a chance to style your hair in many different ways, trying on extravagant hairstyles when an opportunity to make a brilliant display of such turns up. Zac Efron is sporting the eccentric pompadour that is too good to pass it by without casting a second glance.

This season’s easy-to-do-yourself and trendy hairstyles are associated with gelled looks. Zac Efron certainly couldn’t leave this trend without attention, but, alas, it’s not his best hairstyle choice. His appearance, his head and face shapes, to be more exact, benefits more from hairstyles with some volume on top that has an elongating effect.

This hairstyle of Zac Efron is a good choice for formal and office looks. It will work for wedding likewise. (Any bride would appreciate) The subtle teasing with a lighter hue is acceptable and flattering, because it enhances the texture even in such smooth, hair-to-hair hairstyles.

You need to have a good sense of self-irony to pull off a black tie look with a hairstyle that is literally messy. Even if Zac Efron later regretted of his appearance with such a style the 82nd Annual Academy Awards, it was a bold style experiment we approve.

The black leather jacket and white shirt would look boring on Zac if he wore a classic men’s hairstyle. The grunge touch introduces a dissonance that (surprisingly enough) gives rise to the style harmony. Never underestimate the role of a hairstyle in your look!

This is a more casual look that, however, doesn’t appear boring or ordinary. It also has a light romantic feel to support the fun print of Zac’s shirt. When styling your hair for every day wear, give your preference to pliable styling products which do not dry hard and give your hair the precious feel of movement we see in most new hairstyles from Zac Efron.

Men’s hairstyles with a wet effect have always been in demand, especially in summer. Be careful not to overdo with the styling product, or your hair will turn into “greasy” instead of “wet”. This hairstyle is good for curly hair.

This is a real teenage classic, and the middle zig-zag parting looks like it’s straight from the 90s. The zig-zag also brings a subtle emphasis to the bright green color, contributing to the eBoy hair style. The length, cut halfway the ears, gives the look a nonchalant appearance.

If you have a long face shape, go for a middle parting! It makes your head look more oval thanks to the volume on the sides, especially if you have wavy hair. Long fringe will also help you draw attention to your eyes and cheekbones.

A nice fade on the sides transitioning into longer hair on the front with a natural middle part makes this curtain hairstyle really interesting. The best way to style it is with a matte pomade and fine-toothed comb.

This aggressive but sleek curtain haircut always does well. Go for zero on the sides with no fade at all to give it that good-old-1920s look. Best styled with some oil-based grease.

For the more loosey look, go for long hair curtains! If you have some natural curl in your hair texture, there will be really not much to do about styling. You may just squeeze in some styling cream as a finish.

Last but not least is this traditional Thai-influenced middle part haircut. I did this cut back in the day when I worked at Schorem Barbier in Rotterdam. I used a lot of gel (not my favorite product but it works) to make this wave because my model has really straight Asian hair. I am specialized in old-school traditional haircuts, so this was totally my thing.

Jazz up your mullet with a touch of rebellious chic by introducing a skin fade on the sides and spiking up the mohawk area.

Curl your moustache with a styling wax and embrace your alternative hairstyle.

      <image:caption>2. Skullet with Line Up

Have fun with your hair and try something new this time by combining a simple line-up design in the front and mullet-inspired locks in the back. The great thing about the style is that you can always switch between looks and go all formal by cutting off the longer section and sticking to the one-length crop instead.

This is a great example of the classic skullet with fully shaved sides and top, plus neck-length strands that fall down the nape area in a thick cascade. The bushy beard only adds to the look, complementing the lengthy tresses. To maintain the sharpness of the glam, make sure to have regular trims or learn how to shave your head at home.

A tapered crop is always a good idea when you’re unsure what to do with your hair. It provides a soft graduation throughout the length, allowing your locks to grow out nicely and experiment with different styles. If you feel extra creative, keep the crown and the back of the head longer to show off your natural hair texture.

This punk look exudes rebellious vibes with a touch of personal allure. Following the classic crop, the head is shaved from the front to the crown, while the back section is intentionally left longer for a wow effect. A well-trimmed beard with a clear outline around the jawline makes the whole glam impeccable, yet far from being conservative.

      <image:caption>6. Buzzed Mullet

A common variation of the look is a combination of a buzz cut with short sides and a top section accentuated by textured locks in the back of the head. As always, you can get rid of the tail and go short all over whenever you feel like keeping things classy and simple.

A crew cut skull is characterized by little hair on the top that leaves you with numerous options to work with. For a more put-together look, don’t let your long locks hang too low on the shoulders to avoid a scruffy appeal. Make sure your hair stays at the neck length for a neat and defined finish.

Fade haircuts are always on trend, but what makes them really cool is their flexibility and compatibility with other styles. Take, for instance, this edgy cut that unleashes your natural hair texture while keeping the front short. A classic temple fade or mid fade will look particularly good with this crop.

Can’t decide between a long and a short haircut? How about combining both in one look? This crop is an ideal solution for guys with long locks. Ask for a classic buzz cut with a subtle fade on the sides while allowing your lengthy strands to reach your shoulder blades for maximum contrast and stylish appeal.

This look will help you to tame your unruly curls and add some definition to the mane. With a clean line up in the front, the fluffy locks get a balanced and elegant vibe with just a whisper of rebellious style. A generous amount of curl cream will help you to keep the hair slicked down and frizz-free.

There is no need for a dramatic shift between the lengths, especially if you want to keep things simple and low-key. A shorter tail will give the look those classic mullet vibes with extra texture. Faded sides are another distinctive element that creates a beautiful contrast between the shorter and longer sections.

Surprisingly, the cut looks flattering on salt-and-pepper locks, as they add depth and dimension to the glam. So, if that’s your case, ask for a textured crop to enhance your natural hair color and play with the length. For styling, use hair mousse or a lightweight gel and scrunch your locks a bit for a messy, laid-back feel.

      <image:caption>1. Flat Top Crew Cut Fade

Unlike the gradual tapering seen in classic crew cuts, the sides of a mid fade crew cut transition rapidly to expose the skin around the ears with a close, ultra-short shave. Using the precision of this technique, Teodorescu Radu, the owner of Spuk Studio, creates a sharp and stylish aesthetic popular in 2025.

A combination of shaved sides and facial hair can result in a contrasting bold look that will help you stand out with your short crew cut. Due to the increased length at the front, it also lends itself well to a contemporary rendition by incorporating a short quiff.

This crew cut trend is particularly well-suited for men seeking a haircut with a touch of attitude. To achieve this look, start with a classic crew cut and use a blow dryer to lift the hair at the front. Once the hair is standing up and dry, apply pomade to finalize the short quiff look.

Let your front tendrils fall down on the forehead and reach the eyebrow level to accentuate the shaved sides. Use your favorite curl cream for maximum definition and movement. The crop will suit men with broad foreheads, as the top section covers the upper part of the face.

Don’t be afraid to switch between different styles when you have naturally curly strands. After wearing a long haircut for a while, take some weight off and ask for a shorter crop. Scrunch your locks with some hair gel for a messy feel and call it a day.

Play with the sizes of your barrels to nail the desired aesthetics. For a dramatic effect, try chunky twists that add volume and drama. Want something more versatile? Medium twists would be perfect for work or play. And if sleekness is your goal, opt for small, tight twists that stay sharp and neat for days.

In most classic styles barrel braids run front to back and end at the nape. In this imaginative upstyle, the twists are directed from the hairline to the crown and finish with a top knot that resembles a pineapple style. The pineapple is formed with locs that are creatively looped to add volume and structure.

Chunky twists are not up your alley? Ask your braider to section your hair wider and create thinner twists that lay snugly against your scalp. Because the individual twists are thinner and reach from further away, they can create mesmerizing designs.

Those with longer hair have several options on how to finish off their barrels. If you prefer a natural finish, leave the ends loose after twisting. You can tuck the ends into each other or wrap them into a low bun for a neat finish. Or you can continue braiding your hair to craft 2-strand braids or other kinds of plaits.

If you are growing tired of your two-strand twist hairstyle, you can always turn it into something new. As long as your hair is at least 4-6 inches long, it can be nicely styled into barrels. This length allows you to twist and manipulate the hair effectively without it being unraveled easily.

      <image:caption>14. Herringbone Pattern with Flat Twists

Flat twists lay close to the scalp, similar to cornrows. They work well on various hair types. Because they already create a defined pattern and secure base, they can be easily grouped into larger pieces. The existing tight hold ensures that the barrel locs remain neat and less prone to unraveling.

Because in rope twists the individual strands of hair are twisted before they go into the main rope, this style is super secure and won’t unravel hand over fist. Crafting barrels out of rope twists is like setting three levels of security for your hairstyle. Just make sure you don’t twist your hair too tight to avoid tension.

Do you love a good high ponytail moment? Then you’ll love this high puff style. Instead of going for a classic slicked-back ‘do, add flat twists in the front section. They are a fun way to switch things up and make your style last longer. Besides, they are super lightweight, don’t put any strain on your hair, and keep your crown healthy.

In this lush updo, flat twists play second fiddle. All focus is on abundant volume and poofy texture.

Added hair can help you achieve the desired volume and outline of your hairdo.

If you want a sleek and tidy hairstyle, sweep your flat twists neatly back and gather them in a bun right in the middle of your nape. It’s an awesome easy protective style that won’t tug on your edges to the point where they thin out. Once you take the bun down, you’ll end up with beautiful, defined twist-out waves.

Many men have their hair naturally parted in the middle and, if you are one of them, that’s one big reason for you to choose the two block hairstyle. Trimming down the sides significantly shorter than the top makes it less heavy and more breathable especially in hot seasons. Simply towel dry your hair and let it set where it naturally wants to.

Yes, you heard it right! Having your hair look undone can make it look very nice as it gives it more texture. This relaxed look can be considered a two block by the way hair is split. One very good product to get this look is hair salt spray, as it gives your hair volume and movement while adding a light hold to it.

Bangs draw attention to your facial features, drawing specific attention to your eyes and giving you a youthful glow. So, if you are ready to turn heads on the streets, a long fringe is the way to go. More so, if you have wavy hair texture. If you want to have more volume and wave achieved in this photo, you may blow dry your hair completely to one side and then flip it to another side where you want it to sit. Pro tip: use volume mousse or salt spray to build up volume.

If you have a round face, better avoid extremely short pixie hairstyles. Instead, keep the length of the crown a bit longer and style it with spikes to visually elongate the face. Textured bangs and cute front pieces beautifully frame the face.

Bring a touch of authenticity, elegance, and modernity to your style by choosing a messy pixie look. The secret behind the glam is a trendy “wet” hairstyle shaped with hair gel. The loose strands on the top of the hair enhance protruding cheekbones and cover a broad forehead for a more balanced appeal.

Korean hairstyles are currently the most sought-after crops because of their flowy nature and effortless texture. This pixie is a tomboyish version of a classic layered chop that features longer strands in the front and in the back of the head. The wispy, center-parted fringe falls down to the cheekbone area, softening its broadness.

While sleek hairstyles are generally not recommended for square faces due to their ability to bring out angles, this crop is a perfect exception to the rule. Just make sure to gently brush your long fringe to one side instead of cutting it blunt. This will reduce the flatness of the forehead and highlight the cheekbones beautifully.

This textured pixie cut features a slight disconnection between the layers, making the cut touchable and crispy.

A side-part ‘do like the one in the picture below is an apt example of an asymmetrical pixie designed to achieve maximum volume and movement. By flipping the longer strands to the side, you also introduce a softening curve that elongates the face and makes it look less angular on the sides.

A pixie cut for a square face can vary in texture and length, but its main goal is to make you feel confident and beautiful even with short hair. One way to achieve this is to throw in a choppy fringe that lends some wispiness to the whole look and conceals the broader parts of your face for the visual balance.

A bixie haircut, aka pixie bob, is a stylish take on a classic crop. It leaves you with enough length on the top and along the sides to experiment with different hairdos. A soft, side-swept fringe complements the look, creating a harmonious combination of texture and movement.

If you need a low-maintenance pixie cut for your face, this crop is your sure bet, as it’s made specifically for your natural hair texture. By leaving the top sections a bit longer than the sides, you let your hair grow out nicely without regular trims.

A pixie haircut for a square face is not always about the uniformity of length and form. Sometimes, pairing your textured top with tapered sides is an ideal combo that reveals the depth and fullness of your tresses. Make sure to use a curl cream to show off your natural hair texture.

For a more laid-back feel, scrunch your locks with a hair product to get this scruffy and disheveled look. The messier the hairstyle – the better, especially if you have a square jaw and want to round the angles a bit.

Pomp is a classic and timeless hairstyle that exudes style, confidence, and charm. Paired with a low fade, it creates a bold and eye-catching choice that can elevate your overall look and draw attention to your appearance. While it does require some maintenance and styling, the results are well worth it!

Burst fades offer a wide range of styles, and when combined with a fringe and mullet, they create a captivating and impressive look, just like the one created by Kevin Luchmun. Opt for this hairstyle if you have a longer face shape or a large forehead, as it helps to visually shorten the face.

One of the advantages of the skin fade with braids created by Brittany Miren is its low-maintenance nature. It allows you to achieve a stylish and put-together appearance with minimal effort. However, it’s important to note that maintaining the skin fade requires regular trips to the barber to keep the fade looking fresh and clean; also, cornrows need to be regularly and properly moisturized with an appropriate hair product.

The key to achieving this catchy pompadour hairstyle is to have longer hair on top and shorter sides, gradually blending with a longer back, creating this seamless transition. Ask your stylist to carefully taper the top section down to the back using scissors, creating the signature pompadour shape.

For those with coily hair type, tapered sides can be a fantastic choice to enhance the natural volume and texture of the hair. The fade helps to give structure and definition to the afro, making it appear neat and well-groomed, thus creating a visually striking and cool look.

To create this tousled mullet hairstyle, Florence Chiyoko Oka playfully tossed strands all over, achieving a carefree and textured effect. “We kept more length to maintain the curl in hair,” says Florence, and it was the right thing to do as the length accentuates the hair’s wavy texture and boosts the vibrancy of copper hair color.

The longer top section can be styled in various ways, such as slicked back, textured, or even with a pompadour, like in this haircut, created in a Beast Barber Shop. Meanwhile, the shorter back and sides can be shaved closely or tapered for a clean and sharp appearance. You can even add several neat lines to highlight the sharp contrast between classic pomp and bold fade.

The quiff hairstyle strikes a balance between casual and voluminous, presenting itself as the laid-back counterpart to the pompadour. Shorter sides keep the style clean and add a modern touch to the overall look, while also keeping the focus on the long textured top. Perfect for those with a thick hair type.

      <image:caption>1. Wispy Bangs

The secret behind the perfect wispy fringe is making its shortest strands in the middle, ending right at the eyebrows, going gradually longer towards the sides. Thus, you get a fantastic face frame that accentuates your beautiful eyes and softens a high forehead.

      <image:caption>2. Eyebrow-Grazing Fringe

Bangs look gorgeous on different face shapes, yet there are some things to consider when choosing a fringe for round faces. We suggest giving preference to elongated bangs that gently hit the eyebrows or go slightly below them, as this may balance the roundness of your face. Pairing them with shoulder-length layered waves gives your appearance even more elongation and draws attention away from fuller cheeks.

Brow-hitting layered bangs infuse your short hair with volume and dynamic and, at the same time, soften the features and enhance your charm. A warm, strawberry blonde hue also emphasizes the lightweight texture of subtle layers and bangs. So, if you plan on dyeing your locks, we encourage you to try this shade, not necessarily as a solid color, but rather highlights.

Medium hairstyles with bangs are like a golden middle between long layered hairstyles and dramatic pixies. Looking particularly charming and alluring, they are also easy to maintain, especially if you opt for the long curtain bang style. To further accentuate the framing effect of the bangs, color your locks in this chic buttery bronde shade, placing lighter tones at the front.

If you’re looking for a volumizing haircut for thin hair, there is no one versatile choice for everyone, as, ideally, it should fit your face shape and overall features. Yet, there is a universal way to boost your hair’s movement and dimension – side-swept bangs.

While short layered haircuts are best for bringing fullness to thinner hair types, there’s another way to add volume without compromising your hair’s length and density. Ask for the 70s-inspired bottleneck fringe, cheekbones-skimming bang style, short in the middle and curved at the sides.

If you aim for a fresh haircut that balances your face shape, a wispy fringe that frames your eyes is a wonderful idea. Cut it with a razor to take some weight away from your thick hair, making your bangs look airier and softer. You can also grow it out easily if you prefer a more curtain-like bang look.

A see-through fringe is a good choice for women looking for bang styles without commitment, as they are easy to grow out. However, to achieve this effortless dynamic and volume at the roots, you’d need to blow-dry your hair, holding the round brush horizontally.

This sweet fringe is a lifesaver for those with oblong faces requiring some balancing, which can be achieved by covering the forehead. Even though the bangs are straight, you can still use them to complement wavy or curly hairstyles, whether short or long.

Although classic Birkin bangs are typically paired with no-layered long tresses, you are the captain of your own ship, especially when it comes to your appearance. Feel free to combine this long bohemian fringe with whatever haircut you want – the result will be stunning, no doubt!

The peek-a-boo bangs exude some childish playfulness that may suit women of all ages. Besides, the hairstyles styled to the side can help you get that volume and fullness your hair may start losing after 40.

If you have some time for hair styling in the morning, we encourage you to try this eyelash-grazing fringe. As stylish as it is feminine, the long bangs add charisma to your look, making your eyes sparkle. Additionally, bangs for thin hair solve the issue of hair fullness and density, which is another tick in the plus column.

      <image:caption>21. Sweeping Bangs

While most bangs are usually parted either in the middle or to the side, you can experiment with different styles and try something in between. For example, part your hair off-center and make one side of the fringe to frame your face like a curtain, leaving the other swept right above the eye.

A curly bob mixed with feathered bangs is a contrasting yet interesting combo that may require some styling, but you will truly enjoy the result! Depending on your natural hair texture, you can either curl your hair except for the straight fringe or straighten the bangs, keeping the curls untouched.

Such bangs can significantly harmonize your appearance by slimming the cheeks and covering the forehead. But to make them less bulky, you would need to layer the fringe a little using the feathering technique.

Gentle and graceful, soft curtain bangs can help a 40-plus woman create an elegant yet trendy hairstyle that accentuates her cheekbones. This bang style looks best when sleek, so we reckon straightening your hair with a flat iron, slightly curling the bangs outwards.

Tangles and knots can make brushing and styling thick curly hair a time-consuming and sometimes painful task. With layers, you get unproblematic maintenance as they make curls easier to style. Your curls get better definition losing the bulk that weighs them down. As a bonus, you receive an improved hairstyle shape full of dimension.

Barbers love graduation for its ability to introduce layers and angles that promote natural movement of the hair – ideal for a flow cut. This technique creates a structured but fluid appearance, allowing the hair to flow and maintaining the shape at the same time. This dynamic, lived-in look accentuates the natural flow of straight or wavy hair best.

Shag haircuts fully embrace layers! That’s where they get their enviable texture from. Shags look wonderful on hair that has some natural texture to it – from slightly wavy to curly hair types. Pin-straight hair, especially if it is fine, might not be the best fit for a shag as it will lay flat against your scalp. This cut is highly customizable. Your barber can curve the layers so that they are best suited to your scull shape and hair texture.

It’s hard to visualize a curtain hairstyle that has no layers. We bet you couldn’t. Layering gives the crown hair a lift and fosters the right face-framing. Now your fringe falls over your forehead with natural grace and creates a dynamic look with every turn of your head.

If the first thing that comes into your mind when you hear the word “layers” is “They’re just going to chop off all my length,” you don’t need to worry. Cutting techniques that allow you to reshape the internal structure will keep all your length intact. What they do is remove the weight and keep all the precious length.

Did we mention that layers give your hair a sought-after texture? It’s worth saying it again because look at those textured layers! Natural and effortless, they give the haircut depth and beautifully showcase the color melt from lighter caramel strands on top to darker layers underneath.

One more haircut that thrives on layers is a mullet. Choppy layers are ideal for a rugged and tousled effect that is easy to create and maintain. Feathered layers, on the other hand, create a softer, more blended look that is firmly based on flowing transitions. Faded temples will keep the look trim and support the signature mullet shape.

For those who like more volume on top and clean sides and back, a blowout taper fade is a handy option. It carries more weight on top and gradually fades downward. This haircut is excellent for thick hair, keeping the bulk in check. Everyone from super straight to kinky hair can enjoy a good taper fade.

Marrying two popular hairstyles, this cut takes in the best of both. Here’s your lengthy back that effectively elongates round faces and here’s the shaggy texture borrowed from a shag cut. This style looks its best with laidback tousled styling. Invest in a high-quality texturizing spray to create that fuller, natural texture.

Wavy and curly hair textures are more forgiving if you forget to schedule your barber’s appointment on time. They are prone to a certain degree of shrinkage and embrace messy textures. Straight hair, when left to its own devices, can quickly turn into an overgrown hot mess. What’s worse, it tends to lay flat, weighed down by its own length. Regular trims will keep your mullet defined and your shape fresh.

Simply ruffle hair with a pinch of a texturizing product for that cool guy vibe. Pair your fringe haircut with a fade of your choice.

To recreate this voluminous hairstyle, several factors are essential. And first and foremost is skillful layering that is tailored to your hair type. But blow-drying techniques and the proper styling products are as crucial. Use a round brush to lift roots and create root volume. Applying products like mousse, root lift spray, or volumizing powder can give your hair a thicker appearance.

The right shape of bangs is what makes this Korean-style haircut. These bangs, often slightly longer and wispy, gradually taper to blend into the rest of the hair. You can part them down the center a little off-center to find a flattering angle for your face. This style is versatile and allows for various lengths and textures.

Classic meets modern style in this haircut. The sides feature a gradual fade, starting shorter at the bottom and blending into longer hair as it moves up. This creates a clean and sharp look and plays up facial hair. The layered top adds volume on top and gives the overall hairstyle more dimension.

You’d think that longer hairstyles that reach your collar can easily go without layers. But no. Thick straight hair if cut at one length would create a thatched effect. Leaving alone the need to manage it every morning. Gradual layers reduce the bulk in this cut and create a dynamic style.

Keep the locks sleek and straight with the help of a straightener and leave-in products.

If bangs are not your thing, ask for a classic middle-part crop that features short, jaw-length sidelocks. The hairdo will open up the face nicely, allowing you to keep the length and play with different styling options. Wear your locks down or gather them in a high ponytail to accentuate the front layers and switch the looks.

Shaggy hairstyles are always on trend. So, how about combing several trendy looks in one style by going for a shag hime cut that makes your tresses really stand out? For extra cuteness, ask for a wispy cut instead of the classic blunt crop to flip your strands effortlessly. A round brush and a blow dryer will help you achieve a soft finish and introduce some volume to the top section.

Double sidelocks can make your long hairstyle even more prominent and defined. Instead of cutting the front section at the cheekbone level only, introduce another level just below the collarbone area to make the waist-length crop enhanced and stylish. The design will create the step effect, dividing the length into three levels.

      <image:caption>4. Bowl Cut

A bowl cut seems to be made specifically for straight tresses. They naturally fall into a neat, structured shape. The even texture helps the cut look defined without too much fuss. Plus, straight hair is easier to style and maintain in this cut.

This crop is a versatility superhero! From a classic taper for a refined style to a disconnected undercut for an edgy touch, a French crop can be immensely variable. Whatever you choose, make sure you sport some texture on top.

The smooth, consistent texture is what really plays up the clean lines and gradual transition of the classic fade. The uniform growth pattern of straight hair helps keep the fade looking sharp and neat for longer. Talk about easy maintenance!

      <image:caption>7. Short Pompadour

If your hair exhibits some natural volume and moderate thickness, go for a pompadour hairstyle. Straight hair will easily hold the shape and height of the pompadour. Choose between classic pomp for a timeless appeal or a modern variation with less height and more sass.

Longer fringes beautifully complement oval, oblong, and diamond face shapes. They will balance out the length and add some width to the face. You might need a volumizing mousse or a root lift spray to give your fringe a fuller appearance.

If you like it short and low-maintenance but don’t want to buzz your hair short, a short crop with a high fade might be a good alternative. It will keep your sides and back neat and will give you some length on top to play with.

      <image:caption>10. Textured Pompadour

Major dimension, a bit of messiness, contemporary edge – that’s all about a textured pompadour. After blow-drying your hair upwards for volume, use a pinch of matte clay or styling powder to add texture. Need an extra lift for thin hair? Sprinkle a bit of sea salt spray at the roots while blow-drying.

      <image:caption>11. Shoulder-Length Hair

The longer your hairstyle, the better it showcases the smooth and silky texture of your locks. But, as it often happens with straighter types, it might lack dimension as the tresses weigh themselves down. Scattered highlights that are a tone or two lighter than the base color will bring back depth to your mane.

      <image:caption>12. Short Crop with a Taper Fade

A taper fade is brilliant if you want a sharp look without going all-in on a full fade. Since it only fades the nape and temple area to the skin, it’s a lot more subtle. It works for just about anyone and gives a fresh twist to the classic short crop.

Do you love the charm of naturally-looking tousled haircuts? Then a textured crop might be the right style for you. It’s a cut with a shorter back and sides and multiple layered carved on top so that they support each other in a masterfully organized chaos.

Go with the flow and try one of the endless variations of a flow haircut. It has that rugged and laidback charm that is hard to resist. No wonder it’s sometimes called a “bro flow!” You typically want your hair to be around 6 to 8 inches long for that natural flow. The idea is to keep it long enough to push back with ease.

      <image:caption>17. Low Taper Fade

Want a clean look without too much skin showing? Try a low taper fade. The sides and back are gradually faded, keeping the length very short as it moves toward the neckline. This creates a clean and natural-looking fade.

This haircut is a true lifesaver for flat locks, as it offers a subtle lift at the roots without dramatic transition between the lengths. A one-length top section makes the graduation around the face more refined without disturbing the general pattern of the hairstyle.

      <image:caption>1. Long Ivy League

This is the classic version of the preppy cut. We see this often on professionals and on celebrities too. To get this high-end appeal, get a semi-short or medium taper on the sides and back. Keep the shortest hair at a quarter of an inch and the longest hair at two to three inches.

      <image:caption>2. With a Quiff

While the classic style typically incorporates a side-part, it can be styled in many ways. The difference in length between the longer hair on top and the shorter hair on the bottom isn’t too drastic, but the quiff stands out. This modern version is swept forward for volume.

      <image:caption>3. Short and Spiky

A short haircut is low-maintenance and easy to style, but it might seem a tad boring sometimes. This look uses just the right amount of pomade or styling cream to create volume. For a messy, imperfect effect, use your fingers—not a comb.

      <image:title>4. With Comb Over</image:title>
      <image:caption>4. With Comb Over

Because of the side-sweep, this version reads a little more classic, but it’s also modern thanks to the low fade. Notice how the styling is perfectly smooth? That’s the work of a comb. Learn which tools help to provide the desired effect. You can add gel to the hair and then sculpt it with a comb.

      <image:caption>5. Classic Smooth Ivy League

This polished option has a key element — volume in the front. It’s not really that hard to achieve day-to-day when your stylist leaves that part of the hair longer, and your hair isn’t too thin. Simply use your fingers and some gel or holding spray. Five minutes with a blow dryer will also do the trick.

      <image:caption>6. Clean Cut with a Fade

To ask your stylist for this cut, say you’re looking for a deep side part and a regular fade that cuts to the skin at the temples and in the back. With the top hair about an inch and a half long, you can style it to the side, to the front, or (like here) a combination.

      <image:caption>7. With a Mid Fade

This middle-high fade looks very modern with a beard. The clean lines around the temples and along the forehead keep the style city-approved. Use gel or pomade to style hair forward. With your fingers, pull hair upwards so it has texture and volume.

      <image:caption>8. With Clean Lines

This haircut has clean lines and smooth styling — so it reads more urban and less preppy. For men with thicker hair, it’s easier to pull off very short lengths. Ask your barber for a fade that tapers down towards the nape instead of going straight across.

      <image:caption>9. Close Cropped

For a classic take on this hairstyle, don’t let it get too stiff. Use just enough product to achieve the side part. The front and upper sections of hair should be as soft and touchable as possible to stay true to the original look.

      <image:caption>10. Forward Combed

Combing hair straight forward onto the face was very popular in the nineties, and it’s quickly making a comeback. Why? It’s a playful look that is universally flattering. You’ll need to style your hair when it’s damp. If you wait until it’s dry, you’ll have a much harder time.

      <image:caption>11. Styled to the Side

This hairstyle keeps the hair on top to a medium length, about one inch. The fade curves around the head, dipping towards the nape. With thick hair, you don’t have to do too much to achieve volume. Just use some mousse, and you’re good to go!

For a super clean style, go ahead and reach for some gel. You’ll need a fine toothed comb and wet hair. Rub a bit of gel on your palms before applying so it goes on evenly. Then comb it through. Once it sets, don’t mess with it!

      <image:caption>13. Spiky Style

This cut looks great on thick dark hair. The styling strikes the balance between messy and perfect. To achieve that difficult balance, comb everything forward with pomade and then, once it’s perfect, mess it up with your fingers a bit. With long hair, it’s easier to get the spiky look.

      <image:caption>15. With Defined Spikes

With a medium-high fade and long textured hair on top, this haircut style has tons of personality. While the spikes are defined, the overall styling is still touchable—not overly stiff. The trick is to use a texturizing cream instead of gel. You’ll be surprised at how well such products hold up throughout the day.

Here’s a haircut that will show that you’re not too shy to be different. It tapers at the neck and fades to the skin on the sides. You get a subtle faux hawk effect that is just the right level of punky.

Here’s a haircut that works well with natural waves. While often considered a good haircut option for straight hair, clearly it looks great with waves too. Because wavy hair has natural texture and volume, you might not even need to use any styling products.

      <image:caption>18. With a Skin Fade

Invisible sideburns and temples that are cut to the skin are modern additions to any haircut (particularly those that are coupled with a beard). What’s really working with this cut is how the hair is styled both to the side and upwards. Genius.

Super short takes on the cut look great with hair combed over to the side. Your daily maintenance will be a matter of minutes. The real commitment is going to your regular cuts. Plan to sit in the barber’s chair for half an hour at least once a month (twice if you can fit it in).

This haircut has upper hair that doesn’t grow much higher than an inch, giving the whole look a much more athletic feel. Because it’s so short, this style looks great on a variety of hair types, from thick to thin and from straight to curly.

      <image:caption>1. Bleached Crop Top

The classic French crop look involves a short top with straight bangs. This is a smart style and for that reason one of the most popular ones. You can make this style more dramatic by bleaching your hair icy white. Add a skin fade on the sides for extra details too!

      <image:caption>3. With Faded Temples

When you opt for a crop fade, you’ll always look dapper. This style suits men with darker hair as you can get a sleek look down the sides and back while having longer hair on top paired with flattering blunt bangs. This combo is one of the smoothest out there.

      <image:caption>4. Long on Top Style

Choosing to have longer hair on top can give you more styling choices, such as quiffs, side parts, or gelling it forward. This is a good option if you have a receding hairline and want to wear your hair forward with shorter sides. A taper fade on the sides can enhance this modern style.

If you want to adopt this haircut without looking too harsh, try mixing soft curls with warm brown hair color. Add a fade on the sides for a blended look that still embodies the classic French crop style. This is great for naturally curly or wavy hair types and creates a messy top look.

A short crop top is a good haircut option for anyone who wants to keep a low-maintenance hairstyling routine or to camouflage a receding hairline. This cropped hair is easily styled forward and can be brushed into a side part if needed. A cropped fridge is a great way to emphasize masculine features, so be sure to try out this style if you want a change.

      <image:caption>8. Mid-Fade Haircut

If you want a beard, a mid-fade might be for you. This cut includes the standard textured French crop top, but the fringe is kept longer and is styled in a quiff. The sides feature a mid fade, which makes it easier to maintain than a stark disconnected crop.

This undercut style almost mimics a punk mohawk style as the difference between the sides, back, and top is so drastic. Keep the top area of hair long and use an undercut length on the sides and back for this more alternative take on a classic French crop.

A textured fade haircut is a popular option for thick hair. If you want to take advantage of your thick locks, opt for a longer top, so you can style spikes. Whether you opt for a textured design or push the hair forward, this will leave your hair looking full.

A drop fade gradually lowers around the back of your head rather than staying straight like a high fade or a low fade. This pairs well with the classic French crop look, especially when you have short hair on the sides.

Thick wicks are the signature style amongst many Black men today who want to make a powerful fashion statement with their natural hair. The benefit of the look is that you get fewer locs around your head compared to traditional dreads, so they’re easy to maintain and wear.

Spice up your mane with some pops of color at the tips. Usually, the stylist weaves in colorful hair extensions to bulk each loc up and shape it nicely. The technique also allows for style experimentation, so you can easily switch between the size and length of your dreadlocks.

Curly hair wicks are great protective hairstyles for Black men to try out after wearing dreads. The hairdo will blend your kinky strands together, smoothing out all loose strands and resulting in evenly twisted locs that fall down your shoulders beautifully. Pair the look with a sharp line up at the front and get ready to rock your new glam.

For the ultimate statement look, choose thicker locs this time. They’re commonly referred to as trunks because they’re as long and thick as an elephant’s trunk. Four dreads on each side will be enough to show off the texture and fullness of your hair.

Sometimes, all you need is to cut, transform, and reattach your locs to get trendy wicks hair. Make sure to divide your tresses into equal square parts as if you’re creating box braids. Depending on your hair length and styling, the wicks will stand upright or lay flat.

If you choose long, thick dreads, make sure you know how to style them for comfortable wear. One way to achieve this is to gather your bonks in a half updo. It will keep the locs from falling in your face and create a put-together look.

Flat globs are a perfect starter look that doesn’t weigh your hair down and leaves easy access to the roots for future retwists. Opt for shorter wicks at first to get used to the new style and then switch to different styles if you like.

The freeform method is a popular technique to get defined dreads. It requires you to comb your strands together, twist them at the roots, and work the needle through the loc to secure the new form and get rid of sagging parts.

Chunky hair wicks are usually created with the help of afro kinky hair bulk products that imitate the fullness of the strands. You can mix black and brown extensions to achieve the ombre effect during your next salon visit.

Just like a regular haircut, your bonks can also be layered at the back of the head to add textural depth and volume. Combine the style with a clean-shaved side fade, and you’ll get your dream look.

Small wicks look quite similar to dreads, but they lend your hair more definition and visual complexity. This ‘do reveals how different types of locs may enhance your features and frame your face.

Don’t limit yourself to black color only when you choose wicks extension for your glam. Add brown and blonde strands to the locs for a dimensional effect and creative twist. Keep the sides well-trimmed and enjoy your style upgrade.

With this technique, the strands are combined using a crochet hook that forms thick, wick-like locs. It makes your dreads look tight and secure, especially at the ends where they’re rounded nicely to avoid frizz and breakage.

Tie your jumbo-like globs in a low knot at the back of the head to imitate a ponytail hairstyle. While the chosen size of the locs might feel heavy, this hairdo will keep them in place and bring the hair away from the face.

Try out mid-length wicks that are a bit thicker than traditional dreads. They will direct attention to your natural hair texture and protect it from breakage. Use high-quality hair oil to keep your tresses moisturized and tame the flyaways.

For this retwist, the barber uses a variation of the rubber band method when small dreads are tied together to form larger wicks. However, instead of leaving those twists as they are, the stylist adds hair extensions by wrapping them around the base of the loc tightly.

You don’t necessarily need to choose short cuts just because they are believed to flatter your texture. Consult with your barber whether (and how) you can grow out your mane. Also, remember to regularly wash it as it may get greasy quickly and make you look untidy.

Whether you choose shaved sides or just a subtle fade, keep in mind that sides dramatically shorter than the top hair can help you create an illusion of thicker hair. Grab this idea if you’re searching for a perfect haircut to flatter your hair texture and help you look elegant and stylish.

Even though you’re into long hairstyles, you don’t need to wear your locks down all the time. Try out a half up half down ‘do to keep your lengthy strands away from the face and avoid stubborn flyaways on the top of the head. Use a touch of hair gel for a sleek finish and forget about boring designs.

You’ve probably been through this awkward hair-growing stage when your locks lose their original shape and become long enough to gather them in a ponytail. In fact, it’s a good way to shift from shorter to medium haircuts because you don’t have to style your tresses meticulously until you get the desired length.

Elevate your undercut hairstyle with a curly ponytail that rests at the crown and goes all the way to the nape area where it intersects with a shaved part. Ask your barber for a line up design at the front and a creative hair tattoo behind the ear for a more multifaceted glam.

      <image:caption>4. Pull-Through Ponytail

To achieve a neat and well-defined look with your long hair, try a pull-through ponytail style, aka dragon braid. Get the style by tying the top of your hair into a half ponytail first. Add another pony just below the first one. Split the first ponytail into two sections and pull the second ponytail through them while securing the ends with an elastic. Repeat the process until you get a dragon tail-like braid.

      <image:caption>5. Small Pony with Faded Sides

If you decide to leave your top hair layer longer, this ‘do is your must-try. The trick is to reveal a hard part that visually divides your hair into two horizontal sections with different lengths and textures. Gather the longer locks at the back of the head in a small pony and show off those well-trimmed sides.

Make your kinky strands work for you by pulling off a fluffy hairstyle like the one in the picture. Request a faded crop to enhance the textured top and use high-quality hair products to prevent frizz and breakage.

Revamp your everyday style by changing your haircut to the edgy and trendy mohawk. The shaved sides create a visible contrast with a long, textured top layer that starts at the front and goes back to the nape area. Attach a couple of clear elastics to this section to get a ponytail look with a dramatic twist.

Keep things simple yet stylish with a long wavy ponytail. It’s by far the most universal hairstyle among men with long locks today since it doesn’t require much time and effort. Just gather your hair in one hand and wrap it with an elastic to secure the ‘do.

Black men’s ponytail styles can be combined with protective hairdos and dreadlocks to achieve a more textured look. If you want to switch between loose and upswept styles, consider tying your medium dreads in a ponytail with black elastic. Keep the sides cleanly shaved for a sharp finish.

Rat tail is the ultimate retro style that sends back to the ’80s subcultures and their grungy fashion choices. To keep your hairdo modern and up-to-date, pair the tiny pony at the back of your head with a voluminous flat-top crop and pointy beard.

Having thin or fine locks doesn’t mean you can’t wear your hair up. A small ponytail will still look nice if you know how to style it for your hair texture. After all, you can always add a bushy beard to compensate for the lack of volume at the roots.

Introduce some pops of color to your black hair by dyeing your curls pink. The trick is to keep your natural hair color only at the back and the sides for a more dimensional look. This will also enhance a fade design that starts just behind the ear and continues all the way back to the nape area.

If you want to show off your braids with shaved sides, this style is a good pick. Keep your braided strands long while opting for buzz-cut temples and nape. You can always cover them with the rest of the hair.

If you think Mohawks mean party, not business, you might want to reconsider. The fade on the sides is tidy and easy to maintain. Go for a gradual fade with a smooth transition to avoid stark contrasts. Simply keep the top neatly styled and not too high to make the style corporate-appropriate.

Wavy textures thrive in medium lengths. Work some mousse into damp hair to give your waves body and lift. Follow your natural part to direct the waves so that they fall effortlessly to the sides. A spritz of strong-hold hair spray will ensure a movable hold that stays all day.

Timeless and professional, a classic slicked-back style became a staple of the office dress code. This hairstyle agrees well with straight to slightly wavy hair. Straight hair achieves a smooth look easily and wavy hair can add a bit of texture and movement. It’s a bit more challenging with curly hair, but with the right products and techniques, it can still look great.

If you love softer, more natural transitions, skip a short fade and opt for medium length with gradual taper instead. The taper on the sides is less extreme than a skin fade and the length allows for flexibility. It can be worn more casually with natural volume or styled with a product for a sleek finish.

A short slick back hairstyle is great for keeping your hair neat and polished without much hassle. At the salon, ask for short sides and back with a bit more length on top for slicking back. To style it at home, use some pomade or gel, comb it back, and you’re good to go!

      <image:caption>1. With Line-Up

A line-up can take a Boosie fade to the next level! It adds clear, defined edges along the hairline and temples. This precise outline is what gives the cut a polished look. It accentuates your features and provides the fade with an extra crisp finish. Plus, a line-up makes your haircut last longer between trims since it keeps that fresh shape intact as your hair grows.

      <image:caption>2. High Boosie Fade

For those who like bolder, more defined shapes, we offer high fades. They will suit oval and heart-shaped faces best. The higher fade can accentuate the cheekbones and forehead. It creates a balanced look by emphasizing the upper part of the face. The clean skin fade requires minimal upkeep; just regular trims to maintain the fade.

      <image:caption>3. Fade with Waves

Combined with the snappy fade, this style pops! Growing your hair a bit longer on top will allow you to create smooth 360 waves. Use a wave brush daily, brushing in the same direction to set the wave pattern, and apply a hair pomade to help hold it. A silk durag at night will lock in moisture and keep waves defined.

We can’t take our eyes off the startling contrast this haircut creates with its close-cropped sides and back that highlight the natural curl on top. The short fade is trimmed to perfection in this hairstyle and the curls add texture to the final look. To keep it fresh, brush or sponge the curls regularly to maintain definition.

      <image:caption>5. High Top Boosie Fade

You don’t have to copy Boosie’s signature style to the letter. Leaving longer hair on top is a popular variation that will let you keep some length. You can go with a rounded high top for a softer shape, a flat top for a classic vibe, or even a slightly angled top for an extra edge. Think about your personal style – a rounded top can soften features, whereas a flat or angled top adds structure and boldness.

      <image:caption>6. With Color Pop

Adding color to your hairstyle can really make it stand out! For a showy look, go with an all-over color on top, like platinum blonde or deep burgundy. If you prefer something subtle, highlights can add dimension without taking over. A pop of color on just the tips adds a unique touch. Choose a shade that complements your skin tone, and keep it vivid with color-safe products.

      <image:caption>7. Rounded Boosie Fade

A short rounded top works great for those who like a low-maintenance look but want a bit of personality. It suits round or oval face shapes well because it softens the jawline without adding height. The rounded top feels approachable and works for laid-back guys who still want to look sharp. Plus, upkeep is minimal – just regular trims to keep that fade fresh and the top nicely shaped.

      <image:caption>8. Low Fade Haircut

A typical Boosie fade is high and tight, with a skin fade on the sides and the back of the head. But if you don’t feel like wearing a really high fade, you can always ask to adjust its level to your liking. Low fades work well for round and square face shapes. The gradual fade elongates the face and adds definition.

Want to personalize your look? Adding a design to your haircut is a fantastic way of customization. You could go for a simple line or two along the sides for a subtle touch, or choose bolder patterns like geometric shapes or curves to make a statement. Think about the aesthetics you’re after – minimalist or eye-catching – and talk with your barber about what works best with your fade’s length and your hair type.

A fade taper is a version of the classic Boosie cut where the fade gradually blends at the temples and neckline. It crafts a softer, more laid-back finish. This subtle transition is perfect if you love a less drastic contrast in your haircut. Ideal for a work-friendly style that’s still original and easy to maintain!

      <image:caption>11. Afro Boosie Fade

To fuse an Afro with a Boosie fade, keep the sides and back faded tight and let the top grow out naturally. You’ll eventually achieve volume and texture that contrast perfectly with the neat fade below. It’s a great style if you love the natural height of an Afro but want a modern edge to your hairstyle.

Neat lines and tons of texture are prominent features of this dreadlocks hairstyle. You can go for short twists or longer locs, depending on your vibe, but the contrast between the fade and the textured locs up top is what really makes it pop.

If you’re ready to commit to a new hair color, ask your barber for a blonde ombre style blended with your dark root section for a contrasting look. Tapered sides and textured top will underline the bold color combination and hair thickness.

Rock some dimension with partial caramel brown highlights that shine through the mid-length to the tips. The idea is to pick a shade a couple of tones lighter than your dark brown strands for a subtle transition.

Who says highlights need to be neutral? For a splash of color and an edgy look, add deep red accents throughout your black mane. The shade will create visual depth in your hairstyle, making it more interesting and creative.

      <image:caption>4. Light Brown Hair with Sandy Highlights

Customize your new haircut by adding lighter hair pieces that counterbalance your natural hair tone. For this style, the hair pro works with a sandy blonde shade brushed throughout the top section for a subtle lift. The technique gives a natural depth to the look without overriding the natural hue.

This frost-touched hairstyle features jet-black hair shaved on both sides and tapered at the back to bring out silvery accents on the top of the head. It creates a natural salt-and-peppery look, keeping your hair on the darker side of the palette despite the added brightness.

For a more noticeable color change, experiment with chunky highlights that emphasize the flowy texture of your haircut. Make sure you tone them down for a seamless look and use the hair products for the color-treated hair to prolong the effect.

This hairstyle gives off a messy vibe, with natural curls calling to mind the swirls of smoke. The cool blonde color accents make for the textural depth of the look without stripping your hair of its natural glossiness and beauty.

For this hair-lightening technique, the dark strands are lifted in ribbon-like sections that start at the front and go all the way to the back of the head. As a result, you get a high-contrast look that doesn’t require regular touch-ups.

Combine multiple shades of brown to create a seamless look without a stark transition between the hues. Dark chocolate and milk chocolate brown tones pair well for this particular purpose, bringing to the fore the hair color depth.

The great thing about guy-lights, aka highlights for men, is that you can match them with other styles and coloring techniques to get a unique personalized look. For this glam, the barber adds a combo of highlights and balayage pieces that exude sun-kissed vibes.

If you don’t want to bleach your strands before using a toner, apply the chosen shade directly to the base color for a subtle lift. Deep brown locks look great with light brown highlights, ranging from caramel and chestnut shades to golden brown and beige ones.

Blonde highlights work exceptionally well for dark-haired men because of their versatility. You can ask for a foilyage service, placing thin, lightened strands throughout the length or leaving only front sections a couple of tones brighter for a framing effect. Either way, the result will be stunning.

Elevate your layered hairstyle with a brighter top section that introduces much texture and movement to the look. By placing lightened strands closer to each other, you get almost white highlights that can be paired with any base color.

For a more dramatic effect, leave your roots a shade or two darker than the rest of the hair. It will create a visible contrast, introducing a lived-in dimension to your style. Experiment with the haircut shape to highlight the new color combo.

      <image:caption>1. Middle-Parted Mullet

Curtain fringe is a great shapeshifter and can be integrated into various hairstyles. Take this modern mullet, for example. It keeps the length in the back for some serious attitude and sports flowy, eyebrow-skimming bangs up front.

      <image:title>Classic Curtain Style</image:title>
      <image:caption>2. Classic Curtain Style

For that ‘90s heartthrob aesthetics, stick to the classics. This timeless look features long, tapered hair parted down the middle and styled into a C-shape. This cut looks especially sharp on guys with a softer jawline since the clean lines add some contrast to the face’s natural curves.

      <image:title>With S-Shaped Bangs</image:title>
      <image:caption>3. With S-Shaped Bangs

The S-shape curtain style is pretty similar to the classic one. But instead of staying straight or curving inward to make a C-shape, the fringe bends in once and then flips out again at the ends. This bang shape adds some nice angles and definition to round faces and balances out the wider forehead of heart-shaped faces.

      <image:caption>4. Short with a Hard Part

For those who were avoiding this haircut for maintenance reasons, we offer a shorter version that keeps the curtain effect subtle. It’s easy to care for and won’t keep you in a barber’s chair for hours. Adding a defined part to your haircut will bring structure to an otherwise casual style.

      <image:caption>5. With Shaggy Layers

Shaggy layers that fall naturally around the face are fantastic for relaxed, casual vibes. This textured look is easiest to maintain on thick, slightly wavy to curly hair. Try a sea salt spray to give your hair some grit or a matte styling paste for a rich texture with a natural finish.

      <image:caption>6. With Buzzed Sides

Want more definition in your hairstyle? How about buzzing the sides and back short for a sculpted look? Minimalistic and clean-cut, this haircut will look best on straighter hair types. Wavy or curly hair, especially very thick, will form a disagreeable thatched effect when it’s cut in a wedge shape.

      <image:caption>7. Long Flowy Style

This cut is longer than most and works great with wavy or straight hair. The fringe is kept pretty long, blending flawlessly with the rest of the mane. To get the ‘90s heartthrob vibe, add some volumizing mousse at the roots for lift and volume.

      <image:caption>8. With a Side Part

You can always tweak the classic style with a styling trick as simple as changing your part. Use the arch of your eyebrow as a guide. Line up a comb with the highest point of your arch and part your hair from there. This often aligns well with your natural face shape and brings out the best in your hairstyle.

Minimalist and polished vibes, anyone? A sleek look with a neat, natural part is your best bet. At the salon, ask for a middle-parted cut with tapered sides. To style at home, use a lightweight wax for hold and smoothness, then blow-dry for the salon-finished look.

Ever wondered what creates that laid-back but stylish feel? It’s all in the details here: the slightly off-center part, the tousled finish, but beyond all — how this haircut works with the natural hair texture. This layered cut has a great face-framing potential for diamond-shaped faces.

      <image:caption>13. Short with a Drop Fade

The ability to mix with a variety of fades and tapers is another universally loved quality. This style pairs a shorter curtain top with a drop fade and a shaved design at the nape. It will require some maintenance to keep your fade crisp, though. Consider this before getting one.

      <image:caption>14. Medium-Length Style

“Who says you have to choose between looking cool and feeling comfortable?” rightfully wonders James Wakeley, UK men’s hair stylist and creator of this effortlessly cool hairstyle. Hair cream or sea salt spray will operate well styling medium to long curtain hair.

      <image:caption>15. With Tapered Sides

For a more classic approach, tapered sides gradually shorten towards the back, allowing the curtain bangs to remain the focal point. Ask your barber for a razor cut. It creates a softer, more textured finish compared to scissors and gives the hair a natural, lived-in look.

      <image:caption>16. For Curly Hair

Curly hair already has all the texture in the world. To bring it out, air dry your hair with a curl cream for the laid-back, slightly grungy feel. Co-washing (washing your hair with a conditioner instead of a shampoo) will help dial down frizz for dry curly hair, making it softer and shinier.

      <image:caption>17. With a Slicked-Back Finish

Getting ready for a formal occasion? A slicked-back finish allows a more polished take on curtains. For a structured style, use a strong-hold gel or pomade on damp hair. Comb your hair back, starting at the roots. Blow-dry on a low setting to set the style, finishing with a light mist of hairspray for extra hold and shine.

      <image:caption>18. With Disconnected Undercut

Sharp contrasts between length, flattering angles, face framing in all the right places — this is all about bold and dramatic disconnected undercut. This style goes best with a center parting to complement the clean geometric shapes of the haircut.

Boost the volume by combining a curtain cut with pompadour styling on the top, giving your hair height and a vintage edge. This style is best for short to medium length, as longer hair will need more styling products and can leave you feeling underwhelmed.

      <image:caption>3. Skin Fade with Long Top

With graying hair, you can always have fun experimenting with different styles and hair-cutting techniques. Ask for a slight gradient at the nape for a faded and more discreet effect that keeps the focus on the textured top rather than the shaved sides. It will help your hair grow out without stark contrast between the lengths and leave enough room for creative shape-up.

Flow cuts impart your hair with a stylish, laid-back feel. Such a cut adds volume and movement to the back and keeps the front and sides neatly tapered, letting natural curls do the talking. The soft layering makes it a wonderful choice for wavy or curly textures, as it brings out the natural curl pattern.

Sharp and super stylish, a quiff with loads of texture is perfect for thick hair. The front is lifted, opening up the face and adding volume up top. The fade highlights the contrast between the clean sides and the fuller beard. Ask your barber for blow-drying techniques and styling products that will be a good fit for your hair type.

A high pompadour will look harmonious on oval or round faces. It adds height and balances the proportions of these face shapes. Pair it with a fade of your choice. It creates a nice contrast that complements the cheekbones and gives a clean, smart look.

      <image:caption>5. Flat Top Fade

A flat top haircut works best for coarse or thick hair because these textures provide the natural volume and structure needed to maintain the graphic, angular shape. To style it, use a strong-hold gel or pomade, combing upward to create the signature flat surface. This haircut requires regular trims to keep it looking crisp.

For an edgy haircut with a vintage note, there’s no better style than a slicked-back undercut. Emerging in the early 1900s, it’s made a big comeback for its clean and sharp vibe. This versatile cut pairs a sleek, combed-back top with short or shaved sides. A fade will result in a softer finish while a disconnected undercut will bring about an edgier look.

      <image:caption>7. Slicked-Back Taper

The longer hair on top of a slicked-back taper is styled back smoothly, while the sides and back gradually taper down to shorter lengths. This haircut grows out nicely but as with many short haircuts, it needs regular trims. For daily styling, use a pomade or gel to keep the top neat and slick.

      <image:caption>8. Wavy Flow Cut

When choosing the ideal length for a flow haircut on wavy hair, think about how much volume you want and how your hair behaves. Longer lengths enhance the natural wave pattern and give a more laid-back vibe. Shorter lengths are obviously easier to manage. Factor in your hair density, styling routine, and how much maintenance you’re up for.

      <image:caption>9. Glossy Slick Back

What a fantastic example of how to balance your appearance with a hairstyle! The shiny, highly-groomed slick back softens the rugged appearance the abundant facial hair creates. Go for high-shine styling products like a pomade, hair gel, or wax. A pomade offers a strong hold with a glossy finish, a hair gel is best for a shiny, wet finish, and a hair wax delivers a high-shine, pliable hold that keeps hair in place without stiffness.

Those with dark natural hair might enjoy new opportunities graying hair presents. Now that your hair is lighter, it can sustain interesting shades, including light and cool tones, without the unwanted brass undertones. Pastel colors will look particularly stunning on longer hair that grazes your shoulders.

An Ivy League haircut is a Jack of all trades. And master of all. It won’t look out of place on a golf course, a business networking event, or a family reunion. For the best-looking haircut that is easy to style, follow your natural part. Run your fingers through to see which direction your hair naturally falls.

      <image:caption>12. Faux Hawk

Fancy a youthful, edgy yet age-appropriate haircut? Why not try a faux hawk? It suits most hair types, including straight, wavy, and even curly hair. For thinning hair, it’s great because the volume up top distracts from thinning areas. You can try subtle, low fades or more dramatic shaved sides for variation.

The classic taper’s motto has got to be “No fuss, just suave.” It features neatly trimmed sides and back, gradually tapering into longer hair on top. The longer hair on top is combed back and styled to lay naturally. The classic taper is timeless, easy to manage, and has a tidy, professional quality.

      <image:caption>15. Pompadour with Skin Fade

This type of haircut is an amazing option for fine, thinning hair or a receding hairline. The height and volume of a pompadour can disguise thinning areas and, at the same time, the skin fade draws attention to the fuller hair on top. Use a volumizing mousse to style the pompadour, blow-drying for lift. Finish with a lightweight pomade for hold and shine. It’s a stylish way to work with what you’ve got.

Medium-length wavy hair with that effortlessly tousled finish creates a laid-back yet immensely stylish look. The baseline of this haircut is neatly trimmed to bring about a clean silhouette.

This look is cohesive, clean, and uber-stylish. To copy the style, keep your Afro well-shaped and your facial hair neatly trimmed. Blend the fade from hair to beard smoothly and match the beard’s shape to the haircut’s lines – think clean edges. Using beard oil and a leave-in conditioner for your hair will keep you looking well-groomed.

It’s sleek and polished and gives a more classic, refined vibe, perfect for everyday wear.

Diamond-shaped faces are characterized by narrow forehead, which may look rather disproportionate with wide cheekbones. Introduce some visual balance to your face by throwing in a shaggy haircut with a wavy fringe. It will help you conceal the forehead and make the jawline appear stronger. To form the desired shape, add hair mousse or styling wax for the ultimate movement.

A short, blunt fringe is a great fashion detail that can make your thin hair look fuller and keep the volume on the top of your head. The closely cropped sides counterbalance the hairstyle, adding a subtle lift at the crown for a show-stopping effect. For an edgy feel, consider a micro fringe instead of a short one, and get ready to rock your new cut.

The flowy texture of this haircut allows for styling experiments that will help you find the most flattering option for your face shape. Play with your hair parting by wearing it slightly off-center for maximum volume. To achieve a ragged yet stylish look, pair the style with nicely trimmed facial hair that will hide your pointy chin.

This relaxed hairstyle looks good on medium-length locks because it creates texture and volume.

Apply a lightweight texturizing spray to keep the loose tendrils at bay and create a slight lift.

Keeping the top section longer than the sides will lend some texture and depth to your locks. The cut suits thick and thin hair thanks to its voluminous nature and a subtle transition between the lengths. With a high-quality styling powder, you can keep the texture going all day, so be sure to include it in your hair styling routine.

The wolf cut is a popular hairstyle that suits all face shapes because of its layering and great variety of forms. You don’t have to leave the back section extremely long to sport the look. The contrast between shorter sides and longer strands that reach the nape of your neck can vary depending on your preferred style.

      <image:caption>7. Mod Cut

A razored haircut like this one diverts attention from a small forehead thanks to the framing tendrils that seamlessly fall down the face. The wispy ends reduce the bulkiness, creating an airy feel even for thick and coarse locks. With a subtle lift at the roots, the top section will appear higher and more voluminous.

If you don’t want to cover your face with hair, brush it up for a fuller look. The spiky ends will bring edgy vibes to the haircut, while skin fade on both sides will give you a neat finish. Experiment with different styles to find your favorite one.

To balance out a pointy chin, opt for a flat-top cut with a temple fade. The square angles of this style soften the sharpness of the chin and create a put-together look. Ask your barber to show you a couple of styling tricks to keep that front section spiky.

A customized haircut like this one might give you the desired form that will flatter your face shape and hair texture. By maintaining the equal length on the top and the sides, you achieve a face-hugging effect that effectively conceals a narrow forehead and makes the cheekbones appear less wide.

For your active lifestyle, you need a hairstyle full of texture and dynamic, and the surfer waves are a great fit. A volume lift styling mousse with natural herbal extracts, recommended by Sergio Slavnov, will give your hair that sought-after volume and lift without the heaviness.

Men with thick hair types are lucky to have natural texture and fullness, so all you need to create this perfectly imperfect beach-day look is to add layers. They will remove the bulkiness from your strands while giving them a lightweight feel, inspired by the rhythmic waves of the ocean.

“The surf boy hair is one of those tousled hairstyles that has a messy and unkempt finish, achieved by disheveling the locks,” comments Bruno Brongar, a creator of this look. Enhance your curtain bangs with a volumizing hair spray, applying it to the roots and tousling the hair with your hands.

If you aim to keep your curly hair longer but don’t want to have it all over your face, opt for a brushed-back style. It’s pretty simple, so you can easily create it at home. Apply a curl-defining product to damp hair, comb your curls backward, and finish with a light-hold spray to secure the style.

Airy curtain bangs parted in the center can give surfer vibes to this charmingly disheveled hairstyle, featuring longer hair at the nape and shorter sides. We reckon this works great for guys with straight hair aiming for more texture and volume without much effort.

While curls are already the signature detail of a typical surf hairstyle, you can brighten them with golden blonde highlights for an ultimate surfer look. The longer curls might need more maintenance, but it’s surely worth the effort. Blow-dry your hair with a curl-defining product and a diffuser to achieve these bouncy ringlets.

If you wear medium hair, you can ask for a slightly choppy haircut to get more texture to the ends. Tuck your strands behind the ears to keep your hair away from your face for a relaxed day by the beach.

      <image:caption>16. “Surfer Curtains” Haircut

“This haircut is parted in the center with some length in the front that is worn almost like a curtain bang but can be tossed left to right,” notes a talented hairstylist, Sergio Slavnov. If you have straight-to-wavy natural hair, Sergio recommends brushing your damp hair and air-drying, applying a sculpting foam, and scrunching the hair with your hands. Once the hair has air-dried, add a bit of an extra hold hair spray to bump the texture up even more.

This look is styled slightly off-center and worn with a beachy texture, celebrating a relaxed, carefree vibe of a surfer aesthetic. Consider your wavy hair will look great when a little tousled with some volume and texture, so make a texturizing or sea salt spray your best ally.

If you wish to boost the volume of your loose waves, emphasizing them with faded temples can be a well-thought-out stylistic move. Consider trimming your sides every 3-4 weeks to maintain their neat look, or grow them out if you want the curls to frame your face.

This hairstyle offers a daring combination of a mullet haircut and James Dean’s iconic Greaser hairstyle that looks particularly enticing on wavy hair. Just keep your sides shorter and ask your barber to leave some of your front strands loose while styling. That is the recipe for the ultimate rock-n-roll look! To keep things more formal, consider a side-parted style instead.

A seamless blend of lengths is what characterizes a high fade hairstyle the most. Neatly shaved sides are masterfully juxtaposed with textured curls on the top of the head. This cut will help you extend the time between your barbershop visits and choose your comfortable length. There is always a chance to go shorter and aim for a cleaner look with a bold undershave, but make sure to keep your messy waves to maintain the length at the crown.

The secret is to stick to your preferred length to make your curls pop with definition and bounce.

With shorter sides and longer top, you get a winning combo that puts your wavy locks in the spotlight. Don’t forget to work some hair wax in for a firm grip and defined ringlets. And just in case you want to balance out your oblong face, throw in a short wavy fringe and call it a day.

It’s not a secret that naturally wavy hair requires more styling and upkeep. Hair conditioner, curl cream, and styling pomade are your must-haves if you want your taper fade style to look immaculate. Remember not to cut your curls too short to enjoy your hair texture at its finest.

      <image:caption>1. Layered Midi Bob

Layers in a medium-length bob give curls more definition and shape, helping them stand out without looking too heavy. They also soften the transition between natural grays and highlights, creating a blended look. This way, your curls appear livelier, and your color flows naturally throughout the hair.

      <image:caption>2. Medium-Length Springy Ringlets

To keep curls hydrated and looking healthy, use a deep conditioner regularly and avoid harsh shampoos. It’s an important prerequisite if you dream of tight, springy ringlets. To form spiraling curls on medium-length hair, opt for a curl cream or gel with moisturizing ingredients. Look for products with humectants like glycerin to lock in moisture.

A slightly angled curly pixie swept to the side will suit oval, heart, and square face shapes nicely. The soft diagonal created by such side-swept bangs balances the face. It can tone down the wider forehead or a strong jawline.

Who says a layered curly bob will leave your ringlets a fluffy mess? This cut actually helps your curls fall into place, giving them shape without the unwanted volume. Instead of creating puffiness, it controls the curls, making them look lively and defined.

      <image:caption>5. Bixie for Loose Curls

A bixie cut looks amazing with loose natural curls, giving off a stylishly nonchalant vibe. At the salon, ask for soft layers to keep the curls light and bouncy, and request a rounded shape. Play with the length of the bangs and back sections to find your optimal shape.

This showy mullet cut effectively plays on contrast – short and edgy up front, with a wide, flowing nape section that brings drama. The long sideburns scream attitude! The bright silver color with darker roots makes for a bold look that grows out softly, keeping it stylish even between cuts.

This youthful haircut is yet another proof you can rock a shag cut on curly hair! To make sure your bangs look great, ask for longer, textured bangs that blend into your curls. This will keep them looking natural and less intense if you’re new to bangs.

      <image:caption>8. Collarbone-Length Cut

To shape curls on collarbone-length hair, ask for subtle layers to give your curls a natural bounce and lightness. Changing your part can completely refresh your look – switching sides or going for a middle part alters volume distribution and highlights different facial features for a new vibe.

      <image:caption>9. Short Side-Parted Bob

To get that wet look on your curly bob, apply a generous amount of gel or mousse to damp hair, making sure to coat each curl. Scrunch your curls gently, then let them air dry or diffuse without touching. This keeps the curls shiny and defined for that sleek, glossy finish.

      <image:caption>10. Lip-Length Bob

This length of a bob cut works best for oval and heart-shaped faces, as it accentuates cheekbones and adds softness. Tighter curl patterns (3B or 3C) give the bob more volume and texture, making the style feel fuller and less flat around the face.

This tapered short haircut keeps things snazzy with length on top and shorter back, creating contrast and rich texture. The longer bangs featuring a natural silver highlight stand out beautifully against a salt-and-pepper base. They give the cut a modern edge and draw attention to the face.

A dry cut lets stylists see how your curls naturally fall, so they can shape the style accurately. For a long bob, stylists will choose a length based on curl shrinkage and how much movement or volume you want, making sure it flatters your face and highlights your curl pattern.

A razor cut on curly hair adds interesting texture and helps remove excessive bulk, giving your curls a more defined and lightweight feel. If you’re going for a shoulder-length shag, this technique is excellent for creating those soft, tapered ends and layers that give the style its signature shape.

To keep the shape of your rounded bob looking crisp at home, use a curl cream or mousse to define your curls and prevent frizz. Diffuse on low heat to maintain volume and shape. Commit to regular trims to avoid losing that rounded, polished silhouette as your curls grow out.

This voluminous hairstyle beautifully showcases the curl pattern of the model’s hair. Want to bring out your natural curl pattern too? Start by using a sulfate-free shampoo and a deep conditioner. Apply a curl cream to damp hair, then scrunch and use a diffuser. Avoid brushing, which can disrupt your curl definition and cause frizz.

      <image:caption>17. Layered Cut with Bangs

To pick the right length and type of bangs for a layered style, consider your curl pattern and face shape. Longer, softer bangs tend to blend better with curls. To ensure they flow naturally, have your stylist cut them dry and layer them subtly, so they merge with the rest of your hair.

Subdued silver highlights give this gray bob more depth and shine, making the curls pop. For an inverted bob, placing highlights around the face and on the longer layers in the back enhances the shape. The highlights add dimension and contrast and keep the cut looking uber-modern.

When you look closely at these before and after photos, you can see that a wispy pixie is often better for fine hair.

When asking for a long layered hairstyle with blended bangs, consider your hair’s texture and how much maintenance you’re comfortable with. Layers can add volume and movement, but they also require regular trims to keep the shape. Make sure the bangs are blended to frame your face without being too heavy or overwhelming.

Add a modern twist to your mullet with a center-parted section resembling curtain bangs. Middle-part hairstyles work great for both casual and formal occasions, as they bring chic yet relaxed vibes to the appearance, flattering men’s features. Apply some sea salt spray to enhance your hair’s texture and movement.

The French crop is a popular choice for men of all ages, and we offer you spice it up with mullet features for edgy vibes. Make your hair on the top and at the back practically the same length, emphasizing your hair’s choppy texture. Incorporate a low fade for a smooth transition from a longer top to tapered sides.

“This bold haircut captures rave culture energy with a striking side disconnect, pushing the boundaries from daring to extreme,” notes its talented creator, Alessandro Bonetto. If you aim for a statemental style that resonates with your individuality and strive for self-expression, recreate this cool mullet with a temple undercut. Including some features of a shaggy haircut, which are the tousled, textured layers and long, layered fringe, this look will give you points for creativity and boldness.

Each mullet is different, but this one is undoubtedly one-of-a-kind. With a longer section down the middle and skin temple fade, your mullet will look like an elongated version of a faux hawk. Style it with a curling cream to give your natural curls a more textured shape and definition.

Among a diversity of stylish curly hairstyles, there’s surely something for everyone, and to come up with the perfect style, you should consider your features. For example, if you have an oblong face shape, haircuts featuring a long fringe and elongated back will make your face appear shorter and more balanced. An Edgar mullet is a perfect combination of both, plus it involves disconnected faded sides for a bold contrasting effect.

Modern pomp is a hairstyle for those aiming for elegance and delicate masculinity. It may soften your appearance and accentuate the wavy or curly hair texture, emphasizing your exquisite taste and sense of style. By mixing it with a drop fade, you can additionally enhance your voluminous top and give a contemporary flair to your whole look.

To achieve this cool hairstyle, ask for a well-textured haircut with an elongated fringe and a longer middle stripe of hair, resembling the mohawk. Create more contrast by shaving the sides around the ears. You can style it straight or spiky, using a hair clay for men.

While a classic mullet has short hair at the front and a longer back, you can experiment with the lengths and create a more personalized look. Get longer hair on top and tousle it with your fingers, applying a hair gel or clay to make the spiky texture. As for the sides, shave them closer to the temples for a contrasting fade style.

Clean and polished, this slicked-back hairstyle has longer hair at the back, typical for a mullet, and subtly faded sides. To achieve this elegant appearance, style your strands with a gel or pomade. Apply the product to damp hair and brush it with a wide-toothed comb in the desired direction.

If you’re not a big fan of male fringe styles, go for a short quiff instead, which perfectly works for men with short, straight hair. It is good to pair with a burst fade, as well as a beard and mustache, so you can get a little creative and try various facial hair styles.

If your hair is not long enough for a classic mullet, try this shorter and more contemporary version, suitable for any hair type and texture. By fading down the sides, you bring more elongation to the hair at the back, creating a signature mullety shape.

There are two ways for men with square face shapes to round them out: a textured fringe or a beard. If you prefer the latter, here is a great style to recreate. It’s not compulsory to grow a long beard like the one in the photo – you can end up with your comfortable length. What is more important is to take care of your facial hair, making it look neat and well-groomed.

This mullet deserves a special place on our list just by virtue of being an absolute stunner in the world of long haircuts for men. However, for men with long curly hair, hair care plays an essential role, as it allows you to manage your hairstyle and achieve defined springy curls. For the best results, use a curling gel or cream and blow-dry your strands with a diffuser.

For men with thick hair types, we suggest choosing haircuts with layers that remove some weight from bulky hair, especially on top. A shaggy cut mullet with a temple fade can fix this for you, not to mention it instantly elevates your look and raises confidence.

Well-kept and neat, soft locs can be styled in many different ways, one of which is this gorgeous half-up ponytail. You can start by dividing your hair into small square sections and then create thin, flat twists, crocheting pre-made soft locs into them. Gather half of your hair in a ponytail on the top of your head, except for a few fringe locs, and leave the rest to flow freely.

Butterfly locs are a dashing protective style that looks delightful even when locs get messy, so we don’t see a reason not to love them! Maintain this boho-chic style with hair oil and sleep on a silk pillowcase to minimize the amount of moisture drawn out of your natural hair.

      <image:caption>7. 24in Soft Locs and Curls

Although soft locs work great for natural curls, protecting them from environmental damage, they require a special hair care routine. For example, you would need to be very gentle when washing your locs and shampoo the scalp only, rinsing the shaft of the lock without manipulating it.

Chunky twists will give your hair an instant volume boost and bounciness, whether center-parted or side-swept. Yet, they won’t last as long as small locs, so you might need to re-twist your hair to enjoy this style for one more week.

If you aim for something wild and captivating, try these waist-length locs with loose ends. Wrap your natural strands with synthetic hair, starting from the roots, and leave the ends untouched, additionally curling them for more definition. Spritz the locs with water and oil mix to replenish the moisture taken away by synthetic extensions.

For those with thinner hair types, we suggest shorter hairstyles, such as this twisted bob. While reducing the tension to your natural curls, short soft locs may look the same as charming and fashionable. Not to say you still can try different styling by switching the partings.

While twists hairstyles are still on top of their popularity, we offer you to take this hairstyle further and extend your hair with soft locs. If your hair’s density allows you to try extreme hair lengths, don’t waste a chance to come up with this exceptionally gorgeous style ending at your chest. Make it half-up half-down by picking half of your locks up in a dimensional ponytail.

For this intricate and eye-catching style, you need to create scalp braids first, which will be weaved further with crochet hair. Take extensions of different colors if you want to make it multicolored. Also, leave some locs to frame your face while the rest are gathered in a high pony, as this will add you playful vibes.

To repeat this hairdo, get soft locs and style half of them in a high pony on the very top of your head and another half loose. Locs will keep the shape of your natural strands, making this hairstyle perfectly held in place. Or, you can ask for Senegalese twists, which look similar but smoother than locs.

This style may look undone, but it can take the stylist up to six hours to create it. However, once you attach the soft locs to your natural waves, you will instantly forget about such a long wait as it’s worth the effort. Loose wavy ends make locs look very natural and enhance their volume, resulting in a relaxed yet fancy appearance.

For rose petals, make petal-like loops with your locs, bring them together in a high bun, and fix them with hairpins. Finish with a strong-hold hairspray.

The great thing about spiky pixies is that you can style them pretty much on the go by spritzing some texture spray through the ends and roughing them up with your fingers. Icy blonde is an excellent hair color choice for those who want to cover their grays or simply looking for a way to make a stylish statement.

Layering, honey blonde highlights, and side-swept bangs give this short pixie cut fullness and dimension, desired for ladies over 50 with thinning hair. The fringe seamlessly blends with the layers on top of the head, and if desired, you can effortlessly comb it back for a quick transformation.

A platinum colored pixie will surely make all eyes on you, especially if you decide to incorporate an edgy mohawk into your style. As it might take some time and effort to style your new haircut, the result is absolutely worth it! We recommend using hair gels or pomades to get this spiky look when roughing up your strands. Alternatively, consult your stylist regarding the appropriate styling products to suit your hair type and texture.

The undercut pixie with blown-out side bangs is all about the balance between sassiness and elegance. Full of texture and movement, this style is better accentuated with hair styling products such as a texturizing or volumizing spray. Additionally, you can apply some medium-hold pomade or mousse and slightly tease the strands for spikey-looking layers.

Short pixie can bring out your charming natural features, rejuvenating your appearance and giving you more confidence in the way you look. You can style it either in the middle or to the side, but the latest is definitely preferable for women with fuller cheekbones.

      <image:caption>18. Feathered Pixie

Pixie cuts with feathered layers suit women with any hair type, but mostly thicker strands, as they help make them more lightweight. Use a hair spray to manipulate your hair and give it a desired shape, or simply air-dry it and apply some texturizing product for a playfully textured look.

If you want to make a statement with your hairstyle, the best way to do that is to dye your hair in bright colors or incorporate a bold undercut. But why choose if you can do both and impress everyone with a stylish shaved pixie in a trendy red copper hue, as Bailey from Pyure Salon did here.

As this type of braids implies braiding small sections of hair, the result looks like free-flowing thicker strands rather than braids. Starting at the roots, micro braids may go all the way down to the ends or end in the midst, leaving half of your head curly.

While there are different types of fades to accentuate any appearance and hair type, you won’t argue that taper fade is a perfect match for natural curls. Accurately shaved temples and nape fade contrast with a messy curly top, which is, in turn, complemented with golden highlights. Consider using curl-enhancing mousse or spray to enhance the definition of your curls.

For a more drastic transition from longer Afro to faded sides, opt for a skin fade – a sharp and clean haircut for bold personalities. Accentuate the shape of your haircut with a clean line-up to enhance the contrast between a voluminous curly top and a short fade cropped to the scalp.

Here is another great option for guys aiming for a hairstyle with a defined contrast.

For this bold look, ask your stylist to twist your hair from the scalp, creating thin dreads all over your head. Then, go with a high taper fade, which adds contrast to the look, emphasizing your twisted locs.

      <image:caption>1. Low Fade

If you aim for something stylish yet professional, go for a low fade haircut, featuring a longer top and gradually tapered temples and nape. Keep an inch of skin above the natural hairline behind the ears and at the back of your head, adding some edginess to the appearance.

      <image:title>Mid Fade</image:title>
      <image:caption>2. Mid Fade

For a more defined contrast, make your fade higher, starting at the middle of the temples, somewhere around the eyebrows. Trim the sides closer to the head and gradually transition towards longer strands at the crown. Stylists often pair mid fades with short textured haircuts, but you can go for something more classic, a French crop, for example.

      <image:caption>3. High Fade

Modern and edgy, a high fade is known for its sharp and dramatic aesthetic, achieved by tapering the hair closer to the crown of your head. The haircut is quite easy to maintain as it looks good, both freshly trimmed and grown out, so there’s no need to visit a barbershop often.

      <image:title>Low Taper Fade</image:title>
      <image:caption>4. Low Taper Fade

Unlike fade styles, a taper fade only has temples and the nape slightly faded to the hairline, with the rest of the hair subtly trimmed and textured. If you prefer low-maintenance haircuts, definitely try the low taper fade, as it requires even fewer trims than a low fade.

      <image:title>Mid Taper Fade</image:title>
      <image:caption>5. Mid Taper Fade

With a skin fade that starts an inch above the ears and around them and a gradually tapered neckline and temples, you’ll get an ultimately stylish appearance. Leave the hair at the crown longer and slightly tousled to accentuate the contrast in length, as well as your hair’s thickness and density.

      <image:caption>6. High Taper Fade

According to Zohna stylists, “high taper fade is the ‘it’ haircut for people with short hair looking to clean up the edges and look sharp.” Whether your hair is naturally straight, wavy, or coily, you can embrace the stylish yet bold aesthetic of this gradually faded cut. Just don’t forget about the importance of regular haircut upkeep to enjoy its fresh look.

      <image:title>Drop Fade</image:title>
      <image:caption>7. Drop Fade

Like a mid fade haircut, the drop fade typically starts at the brows but then, goes lower toward the nape, creating a curved, arc-like shape. As longer top provides many styling options, you can work them on to balance your appearance. For example, a textured fringe may cover a big forehead or harmonize a square face shape.

      <image:caption>8. Skin Fade

If you are ready to try something bold and more distinctive, ask to cut your hair on the sides and at the back to a minimal length. Leave a subtle amount at the very top of your head and gradually trim it for a seamlessly faded style.

      <image:caption>9. Bald Fade

For this ultra-clean look, ask for a very high skin fade, which gradually blends with the hair left on the highest point of your head. The result you get is bold and highly contrasting, so be ready to stand out. A bald fade is best to combine with a buzz or crew cut, but you can pair it with longer styles for a stylish slicked-back look.

For something more interesting and creative, opt for a burst fade – a type of faded haircut with a rounded taper around the ears. If you have naturally curly or wavy hair, a burst fade will also accentuate your curls, making them the focal point of your look.

This haircut strikes a perfect balance between boldness and elegance, making it work for any occasion. Closely cropped sides, effortlessly blended with skin, will help you capture the essence of temple fade and accentuate its signature seamless graduation. In terms of styling, you can opt for something neat and sophisticated or bring a spiky texture with matte hair pomade or clay.

Full of contrasts, an undercut fade is a perfect choice for men wishing to stand out and showcase their fascinating personality. A shaved undercut requires more regular maintenance, but the result is worth all the effort. Tell your stylist you’d like an undercut with a longer top and fade on the sides to be able to style your hair differently every time.

As challenging a curly hair styling routine could be, as cool and stylish the result you can achieve, provided you know what to do with your curls. Fortunately, there is an easy solution to get your curly locks defined and more manageable – a taper fade. Depending on how dramatic you want the contrast between a curly top and shaved temples, you can experiment with high, mid or low fades.

By adding a polished beard style, you can also harmonize the sharp angles around your square jawline.

A mid drop fade with curtain bangs will bring your hair some needed height and fullness on top, which can accentuate faces with wider foreheads and cheekbones. Longer curtain bangs work great for rectangular and square faces, as they can soften harsher features.

When it comes to medium thin hair, layering is not the best solution – instead of boosting your hair texture and dimension, it can further decrease its thickness. Some partial hair coloring, like a professionally maintained balayage, can become a real lifesaver. Easily paired with many shoulder-length hairstyles, it allows growing hair effortlessly – warm blonde tones will delicately blend with your natural hue.

Actress and director Angela Bassett sported a very classic bob haircut at a recent event. Her style is reminiscent of the original 1920s chin-length bob. If you have thick hair like Bassett’s, go for a center part and be sure to use leave-in conditioner and some setting spray to maintain a sleek, stay-in-place-all-night style.

Dawn Olivieri showed off her ombre bob at the height of its popularity a few years back. However, this is a look that is still considered trendy and can be worn well on fair-skinned gals with medium textured hair. To get the look, ask your hair stylist to darken the roots of your hair down to the ears, and then use 1-2 lighter colors so the lightest color grazes the shoulders. The ombre hair color will frame your face and give you an edgy but sweet look.

If you have enviable medium-textured hair like Brooklyn Decker, you can easily pull off this look. Brush hair into a deep side part, spritzing the underneath of the strands framing the face and forehead. Use a large barrel curling iron to lightly curl large chunks of side hair and then use setting spray to hang onto that well-executed volume.

Kelly MacDonald makes the most of her finer locks by curling large sections with a curling iron. The smaller the iron, the tighter the curls, so go for a large-barreled tool for this look. Kelly’s hair is also center-parted, but she still sweeps some bangs to the right side, giving the illusion of more volume.

Only want a bob haircut for a single night? Follow suit after Kate Hudson and use some spray and bobby pins to create this illusion. Kate has naturally curly hair, which deters from any harshness with this style, so if you have curls, too, then go ahead and let them flow free in choice places. Sweep the rest of the hair into a low side ponytail, wrapping and tucking the hair underneath the top layer. Secure at the nape of the neck with bobby pins and spray with setting spray.

Combine casual waves with a sleek chin-length cut like Rosamund Pike did at this year’s film festival photo op. Use a medium-barrel curling iron for smooth volume. A deep side part will create a more dramatic look without going overboard.

Italia Ricci rocked a recent bob hair style by really utilizing every strand. Her multi-colored hair in various brown hues really framed her face and brought further dimension to the style. Bob haircuts often risk looking flat and unexciting, so adding a pop of highlight or color dimension is always a great option.

Keltie Knight brought a relaxed and modern style to her growing-out bob hairstyle at an autumn 2014 Hollywood gathering. Using a large-barrel iron and light hold setting spray, she opted to curl hair away from her face as opposed to towards it, as many bobs usually do. This provides the illusion of hair being longer than it actually is – a major plus for those who are currently rocking their bob haircuts in the often-awkward “growing out” phase.

Katy Perry has never been one to stick with the mold, and this tousled bright purple bob is a perfect example of how she defines her own style. If you wish to catch this trend, the trick is to avoid all over color and instead incorporate bursts of surprising shades like – in Perry’s case – blacks and greys. For the tousled look, run some gel through damp hair, “scrunching” at the roots and tousling the ends.

Like Sarah Paulson showed off at a recent event, a sleek and severe bob goes a long way toward looking glamorous. Straight and slicked down with product, this sharp hairstyle brings a distinct formality without going overboard. This is great for those with a short enough bob that an updo just won’t happen – it’s a stunning alternative that only takes moments to accomplish.

Carmen Ejogo makes great hair look easy with this perky bob haircut that’s fairly simple to replicate. Thanks to her naturally thick hair, she squeezed her hair into handfuls while damp, using a medium-hold styling gel. The side part adds volume without going overboard. Take care to brush all bangs up and away from the face. Let your hair air dry for the perfect finished look.

Going straight and feminine was the goal of Lauren Alaina when she arrived at an awards show, flaunting her long bob haircut. With side bangs positioned across her forehead and then curled loosely, this wind-swept look was paired nicely with her vibrant gown. The best thing about this hairstyle is its potential to be appropriate both for daytime and also formal evening affairs.

Short doesn’t always have to be completely serious, as is exemplified by actress Margot Robbie. This slicked-back pompadour adds an edgy finish to an otherwise mundane straight shoulder length hairstyle. Finish with a strong setting spray so the bump stays up! This modern twist on the classic bob goes great with strapless dresses or other ensembles where attention should be drawn upward.

Sometimes women attempt to bring fullness to their fine hair by trying a variety of elaborate styles – which, in the end, almost cause it to look thinner. In the case of this bob hairstyle, Joelle Carter pulls off the perfect look for fine hair. Keeping hair chin-length and curling back just a front section, her stick-straight hair gets some great curve, volume and style.

African American hair doesn’t have to be its natural hue at all times, as is shown by Laverne Cox, who rocked blonde locks at a recent photo op. Dark-skinned ladies look especially lovely with bobbed highlighted hair, as it brightens the face and can also cause rounder shapes to look slimmer.

Going with a very retro pin-curled ‘do, Rosario Dawson summoned the 1920s with this original bob design. Side-swept bangs combined with strategically placed hair pins were just enough to contain these throw-back ringlets. Pair with a simple neckline and statement-making earrings for the complete package.

Taylor Swift pulled off the simplest bob of all – or did she? Curly-haired Taylor actually blew out her locks so they were sleek and straight for this shoulder-length style that was perfect for awards night. Side bangs covered her entire forehead, accentuating the eyes and her gorgeously colored earrings.

Coming in straight from the sunshine, Sunny Mabrey lives up to her name with this light blonde bob. Straight and bangless, she is casual in style but formal enough to pair this hairstyle with a formal gown. The style will work well for those with fine, light hair, but can also work for darkies, too. The trick is having thinner locks so they lay flat and graze the shoulders.

This sandy blonde look is youthful and suits her complexion just right. Older women often suit light dirty blonde tones as a way to effortlessly cover graying hair with a natural color. To stay away from trying to look too young, steer clear from straight and blonde and add soft waves for playful yet age-appropriate volume.

Lots of volume at the top and rounded curls or, alternatively, a voluminous blowout is a timeless look for mature women. And the good news? It works best with shoulder length and longer. So, whether you are growing it out or have got the length, controlled curls are always a good look. Pair it with trendy balayage hair for natural-looking blonde color.

It’s a shame villainous witches are always portrayed in films with long gray hair because, to be honest, it’s simply gorgeous in real life. Keeping the long gray hair kept sleek and straight offers a polished look to what could otherwise be an unkempt hairstyle. Great for fine hair, keep it long and strong with weekly nourishing treatments and you have a beautiful daily style to go.

If you keep your hair long and want an elegant updo for an event, you can easily throw it back into something special. The bun kept low at the base of the neck and tugging down a few wispy hairs is easy to do at-home. Add a touch of braid moving from the crown to the bun for a fashionable twist to a classic hairstyle.

The mixture of colors in this look is great for those just beginning to turn gray because we still see a pop of natural roots mixed with bright blonde, sandy pieces and some gray. The overall look is put together yet not trying too hard. The long layers and waves keep the hairstyle perfect for on-trend ladies.

      <image:caption>9. Past the Shoulders with Side Bang

This hairstyle has a super manageable length, flowing past the shoulders. The side bang here is youthful and feminine, plus works great on long faces or larger foreheads. So if you’ve always rocked bangs, no need to give them up just because you’ve reached a certain age.

Is it just me or is anyone else a huge fan of mature women who rock bold colored hair? Reds are wonderful for living-up your hair and showing off that bit of attitude at any stage of your life. While the color is sultry, the tapered face-framing pieces and layers throughout soften the entire look.

Combine two of the hottest hair trends on the block by rocking a short, light purple bob. Give the cut some body by curling it into voluminous beachy waves with a 1 ½ -inch curling iron. Fluff the curls with your fingers, spritz some setting spray and be on your way!

Not ready to go full-throttle with the purple hair? Ease into it with subtle purple streaks at the bottom of your long bob (aka “lob”). This will give you a dose of color without going all in.

A lilac ombré is tres, tres chic and requires little upkeep. This hairstyle can be easily grown out and the color will be chopped off once you’re ready to move on. All you have to do to keep your lilac hair color bright and beautiful is invest in one of the top-rated shampoos for color treated hair and you’ll be pretty in purple for a while!

Braids are the ideal hair vehicle for showcasing a bold hair choice, as the woven structure highlights every shade in your hair. If you’re rocking a cool purple balayage, try an intricate mermaid-like braid that starts as a half-updo and transitions into a thick, loose plait at the bottom.

Life is full of surprises, and so is your hair. Next time you pay a visit to the salon, make sure you request two things: deep lilac hair and a little buzzed up section at the nape of your neck. Create a cool etched-out design of your choice that will only be visible when your hair is lifted.

If you have fine hair, heavy layering is not always flattering, so short two-layer hairstyle is the way to go.

      <image:caption>1. Balayage

A perfect starting point to adding a different color to your hair is with the balayage style. It’s a technique that involves adding cool, warm or bright tones in a way that makes them almost melt into your natural hair. Together it creates a perfect balance between going full force and trying out a new hair color. It’s an effortless way to keep up with a colorful style without having to change your whole styling routine as well.

      <image:caption>2. Ombre

The ombre style can go from dark to light or light to dark — you can add a cool or smoldering transition with gray tones. Our personal favorite? Dark roots to mid-gray and ending with an icy gray — to us, it channels an alter ego that lives for the nights, drinks craft cocktails and loves pairing her new do with out-of-the-box lip shades like purple or blue. We’re sure Rihanna would be all over that look.

Sometimes all you need is an extra touch of sparkle to add some more life to it. What better way to do so than dipping your tips in ice? Go as light as you can with a gray tone that complements your natural hair. It’s a fun, simple way to play with a color you have never tried before; and if you really love it you can move on to an ombre, balayage or even a full color! The little details will help you decide.

      <image:caption>4. All-Over Color

Dark, mid-toned or icy — when going head on with your hair to a full gray the choice is yours with how far you want to take it. Take on a gray tone that comes off as a bit blue for something different that screams street style. Be an ice queen with shimmering silver locks that will turn every head in the room when you walk in.

No matter how you choose to dye your hair, and step into the gray trend we’re positive that it’s something you’ll want to keep for as long as you can. Or, at least until the next big hair trend takes its place.

When we say there is no limit to gray hair we really mean it. It’s a unisex trend that we’ve seen on the heads of both women and men. Everyone from Zayn Malik to Perrie Edwards has been seen wearing the style; it seems gray locks have captivated almost everyone. Who could blame them?

It’s an exciting must-try color that keeps earning momentum. So, whether you’re a gal or guy take a step to the dark…or light side with a gray tone that is anything but an overstated trend.

This take on the classic buzz-cut allows you to unleash your wild side without it being too extreme. Reminiscent of the ‘70s and 80’s punk scene, it takes an edgy, strong lady to pull this one off. Try a shocking white color tone to take it to the next level.

To dye or not to dye — that is the question? If you’re ready to experiment with your image, coloring your hair brightly will just do the trick. Opting for a half shaved pixie cut — the shaved back of head and unkempt top – offers a punky twist to the ladylike tone.

      <image:caption>1. Men’s Haircuts for Oval Face Shape

Perfectly proportioned, oval faces can pull off literally any hairstyle from a buzz cut to a ponytail. Although you are totally lucky to pick and choose any style purely based on your preferences, we’d like to highlight some of the most flattering options.

      <image:caption>2. Men’s Hairstyles for Round Face Shape

When it comes to choosing the right hairstyle for round faces, essentially, we are aiming to create a more elongated silhouette. A higher top, combined with shorter sides is probably the easiest way to achieve this goal. We recommend avoiding middle parts, long fringes, ultra-short cuts as well as outgrown sides (sorry but perhaps the mullet cut is not your best bet).

      <image:caption>3. Square Face Hairstyle for Men

A square face shape is the most masculine of all the shapes, thanks to the prominent angles of the jawline and chin. Make your choice of a haircut based on whether you would prefer to show off your manly features or opt for a softer look.

      <image:caption>4. Male Hairstyles for Diamond Face Shape

Angular and defined, diamond-shaped faces look extremely strong and manly. Still, some might still want to balance out the chiseled jawline and cheekbones for a visually more proportional physique.

      <image:caption>5. Best Hairstyles for Triangle Face

Triangle-shaped faces’ key features are a prominent forehead and a narrow chin. We recommend adding some volume and face framing for a flattering and harmonious look.

      <image:title>Male Hairstyles for Heart Face Shape</image:title>
      <image:caption>6. Male Hairstyles for Heart Face Shape

Just like with the triangle shape faces, the core goal is to establish a balance between the small chin and wide and heavy forehead. This is where plenty of texture and volume is essential.

      <image:caption>7. Oblong Face Shape Hairstyles

The simplest solution for an oblong face shape is to keep your hair nice and short. If you would like to add some volume to the middle part of your face, why not try a full beard? Also, a short choppy fringe would distract from the face length and help to restore the proportion.

If you’re wondering what hairstyle to pick for a slim face and boyish build, the answer is – any that you fancy. Longer, surf-style tresses align with a youthful style, whilst a neater, swept-back cut is great to highlight your bone structure.

A comb-over is known to be the best hairstyle for guys with large foreheads. Grow your hair longer on the top and wear it brushed over to the side, semi-covering a part of your forehead.

A money piece is a bold pop of color in the front perfect for someone feeling a little brave but still not looking to fully commit to a color. This look is using two tones of color in the hairline to give a layered effect.

David Beckham’s collaboration with H&amp;M is a big joy for his fans. This photo is from the last year’s launch of Beckham’s bodywear range. David was rocking a cool haircut with extra short sides and nape, balanced with elongated hair on top. The cut is meant to wear back-swept with a lift at the roots as a sort of a pompadour hairstyle.

Commonly crewcut is recommended for thick hair, but we see that David Beckham can pull off practically any look, even if it’s a simple extra short haircut. David successfully combines it with the matching facial style and gets the clean stylish look that fits even into the formal style.

If you are a fan of extra short haircuts and you want something more interesting than a plain crewcut, this cool edgy style may find a way to your heart. Besides the shaved temples, it features a shaved triangle over the forehead – something you don’t come across in mens haircuts every day. Bold and creative!

If you compare this image with the picture #2, you’ll realize what a potent tool a haircut is in terms of your face (and head) shape correction. Here we see that David enhances the impression from his perfect square face at the expense of the sharp taper cut with enough weight in the corners and the graphic facial hairstyle. The hairline that seems practically horizontal and David’s signature back sweep look pretty impressive.

Shaved temples definitely flatter David Beckham’s face. They accentuate his wide cheekbones and strong manly jawline. That’s why he often has his hair cut with extra short sides or temple undershaves. This haircut features slightly elongated razored hair on top and tapering of the length from the crown towards the nape. We love the highlighted spot in particular. It’s obvious that modest color accents can look very good on men.

Shaved head designs are a trendy twist for those who are ready for some extra attention. David Beckham is used to being in the spotlight like no one else, but he doesn’t opt for a sophisticated pattern. Minimalism in everything from clothes to hair is a welcome thing in today’s fashion.

The feel of ease and low-maintenance are among the most frequently requested requirements men have for haircuts. If crewcut flatters you, do not hesitate and pick it for your next haircut. A new contemporary way to wear it is with a facial hairstyle of the same length that you have on your head.

Here is a classy haircut variety without extremes. It’s to the liking of men who shy away from extra short cuts. This look seems to be slightly outgrown not only on top, but at the temples as well. If you like to texture your hair and switch styles from sleek and formal to disheveled casual ones, this is a worthy pick of a basic cut.

These days most men feel ok about hair bleaching. Dyeing solutions on men look the best when done on slightly outgrown hair. It is still a haircut, not just outgrown hair, because what you need in such looks is the accuracy of edges and well-trimmed ends. David’s bleached hair appears very cute. In 2024, we still wear roots natural or darkened.

Does it seem neat and professional? Not really… Stylish and trendy? Absolutely! Short-to-medium haircuts, styled disheveled, look the best on younger guys or men of creative professions. They suit both straight and wavy hair. If your hair is straight like David’s, you can apply sea salt hair spray for “scrunched” hairstyles.

In case you prefer to wear elongated short haircuts, they look the best with the point cut ends and top hair, angled steeply. David Beckham’s haircut is a nice example to follow in this relation. Natural-looking highlights for men are used to brighten up your eyes and as a refreshing touch. It’s optimal to pursue the look of sun-faded hair.

Another great solution for slightly longer haircuts is the elongated nape section. When your haircut is accomplished with a razor, it provides the right edge that is welcome in disheveled looks. Balayage highlights allow achieving the cool look of random sun-kissed touches.

Guys who do not mind experimenting with different hairstyles for elongated hair will like this nice haircut. The blunt cut temples and nape don’t require any additional styling efforts. They are going to look natively neat. And, as for the quiff and top hair, they are point cut for an added volume that you will appreciate in hairstyles with a lift at the roots like in the photo.

When a man decides to transit from a short haircut to medium length hair, he faces that confusing period when his outgrown haircut begins to look messy and untidy but the desired length is not achieved yet. David Beckham suggests using a minimalistic headband to pass through the transition with comfort.

David Beckham’s cornrows made a splash back in 2003 not only in UK but all over the world. There were publications about an influx of young guys who were storming hair salons in order to get the same braided hairstyle. Well, David’s braids are remembered even now, but, alas, they are more often referred to as his worst hairstyle ever. We do not agree, but on some boys who mimicked his style they really looked ridiculous.

A slicked-back short hairstyle is a true windfall for a contemporary man. It’s easy to style in different ways, depending on the occasion. When you need a formal look, comb your hair back with a semi-matte styling product. A casual hairstyle needs a more pronounced texture and definition. Note that David Beckham always has his hair styled with a root lift.

Because wavy hair is prone to shrinkage when dried, picking the perfect bob length for your wavy hair might feel tricky. Type 2c might see some shrinkage, while type 3 hair, including 3a, 3b, and 3c, can really scrunch up due to the tightness of the curls. Ask your stylist about styling techniques appropriate for your curl type.

To define 3a curls, opt for layers and a shaping cut that complements your natural pattern. Use curl-enhancing products and diffuse the hair, scrunching while drying. You can also try the “pineapple” method at night to maintain the curl definition.

What’s better than an elegant bun? A braided elegant bun! To get this look, simply throw your hair up in a pony, divide it in sections and braid. Then, wrap the pony into a bun. And, done!

Get some hippie flair with your single braids. Take a section at each side of the head and braid them both, securing with an elastic band. Then, pull the braids to the back of your head and tie them together. You’ll be a boho goddess in no time.

Create a beautiful headband out of your thin braids. Simply French braid the front of your hair until you hit the back of the head, just behind the ear. Pin it or secure it with an elastic and you’re good!

      <image:caption>1. Faux Hawk with Design Lines

Long on top, with a short back and sides, this men’s hairstyle is arguably one of the most popular trends now. 3 lines situated at the back of the head diversify this look and make you stand out from the crowd.

Short haircuts suit most face shapes and look great on any hair color and texture. Still, isn’t it boring to wear the same shape for years? This X haircut design adds to the style and looks masculine and sophisticated.

Whilst this haircut is extremely versatile and easy to upkeep, lightning-shaped freestyle design lines give it some edginess and a unique feel. The only downside is that razor-shaved lines grow out fairly quickly.

A fade haircut contrasting with long, curly hair on the top makes a dynamic and daring look. Ask your barber to shave in a line or two on one side of your disconnected curly hair undercut for a proper showstopper haircut.

      <image:caption>6. Fade with a Line Hair Design

For this haircut, the top area is kept short to keep the curls neat and tidy whereas the sides and the back are shaved short. A good example of how the razored haircut designs accomplish the geometry of the look!

We can’t get over how crisp this line is, situated just at the point where the fade starts. To recreate this look, use some men’s hair pomade and spray the spikes with a strong hold hairspray.

      <image:caption>17. Modern Pompadour with Geometric Hair Design

This modern take on a pompadour men’s haircut features a side-swept quiff and a tight skin fade. Although this shape is very bold itself, a geometric hair tattoo on one side certainly adds to the style. An excellent way to distract attention from the receding hairline!

If your barber is a true professional, let them create and see what they come up with. This fantasy haircut design, which reminds an Egyptian eye sign, is everything.

A fine line shaved around the border between the tousled top and the neat side fade is an excellent detail honing this style. Use some gel to put the accent on the texture.

The longer form of a crew cut, the Ivy League haircut has longer hair on the top and short, faded sides. This hairstyle can be parted on one side. A modern, more refined version of this cut involves a shape-up – shaved natural hairline and a shaved side parting.

An undercut is a haircut with short, buzzed sides and back disconnected from the longer crown area. This more sophisticated type of the undercut hairstyle features mid fade on the sides and low fade at the back combined with the longer top area.

      <image:caption>5. Faux Hawk Haircut

A faux hawk is a softer and more conform interpretation of the mohawk haircut. Whilst there still is a contrast between the short sides and the strip of longer hair, the lines are blended, making this hairstyle more wearable and modern.

      <image:caption>6. Taper Cut

To achieve this type of men’s haircuts, the sides are taper-cut using clippers and blended with the top using the scissors-over-comb technique. Shaped hairlines give this hairstyle crisp and edgy finish. You must bear in mind that taper fade will need to be touched up at least every 4-6 weeks.

      <image:caption>7. Low Fade

Low fade is a type of men’s hairstyle where the very short sides strikingly increase in length just above the ears, blending into the longer hair on the top. You might like this contrasting look with extremely short skin fade and long, tousled top, or you might prefer a less dramatic, classier type of the same style – with shorter top and longer sides.

High fade, according to its name, presents a more noticeable contrast between the short sides and the long top. Whilst this haircut is quite bold and edgy as it is, it can be accentuated with a shaved hair design.

The bald skin fade is a type of hairstyle where the sides are shaved to the skin level and tapered. You can determine whether you would like a low, medium, or high skin fade. Being a high maintenance hairstyle, that requires regular barbershop appointments, it certainly pays off the effort.

A crew cut is a short and tidy looking, military-inspired haircut. It doesn’t require any styling and maintenance except regular appointments with your barber. Its clean lines and neat look will suit most of face shapes and hair types.

Simple and short, a buzz haircut is cut with clippers quite closely to the skin. Originally been given to new army recruits, this hairstyle soon became modern classics. Shaved in hairline is a great way to emphasize the edginess of this hairstyle.

A bowl cut, also known as a mushroom haircut, is one of the classic haircuts with a long, straight fringe and all the top area cut to the same level. The sides are normally buzzed short, featuring a pronounced line around all the head.

      <image:caption>14. Hipster Cut

The most prominent features of the hipster haircut are short, tapered sides, a side part, and a classic slick back. This cut perfectly combines with a beard. To create this polished look, apply some gel and lift the fringe upwards, directing it to the back.

      <image:caption>17. Man Bun

The man bun has become extremely popular lately, coming as an alternative to ponytails. Be prepared to grow your hair, as this style requires at least shoulder length to have enough hair to wrap it. For an ultimately masculine look, ask your stylist to shave or taper the back and the sides of your head. Some pomade or gel will help to tame the frizz and flyaways.

Classy and timeless, the side part suits most of the facial features and looks equally good with a clean shave and any style of facial hair. A shaved parting will give this hairstyle a more refined and finished look. However, you will need to spend a few minutes daily to style this cut; otherwise, it will look unkempt.

      <image:caption>20. Pompadour

Sleek and full bodied, pompadour haircut is cut using scissors and its main feature is a long, swept-back fringe. This hairstyle will require some time and patience to style it: first blow dry your hair directing it to the back and lifting the frontal area, finish it with a strong hairspray.

A quiff haircut is a very similar style to pompadour, yet it doesn’t require your hair to be a certain length – it will look great even on those with shorter haircuts. Use some clay or pomade and brush your hair backwards and up with your fingers.

Tie a large bow into a low or high pony tail on the go! Simply secure hair into low ponytail using a small runner band below the occipital bone. Then, tie the large 8” Everyday Bow or your self-made bow around ponytail, and go!

The small 5” Everyday bow with the same simple tie feature allows for it to be worn in all hair types and lengths. Like this fun fishtail braid! Starting with a side part, begin an inverted French braid that continues to the other side of the head. At the end of the braid, begin a Fishtail style braid with the rest of the remaining hair. The bow accessory at the end will look perfectly on point.

Don’t worry, my short hair gals, you can wear this look too! With a simple mini pony or a small braid, the accessory looks adorable secured on the side for a perfectly placed look! For hair that is too short to pony or braid, simply rubber band a small section of hair where you want to see the bow. Then, secure the small bow around the mini pony with the two ties.

Trends are moving from casual and undone to sleek and chic! A high, structured ponytail is a go-to styling look that can be worn at any occasion. To add an edgy twist, take a small section of the pony and braid it. Secure the braid and non-braided hair together with a rubber band and add your favorite string, beads or chain to the end of the ponytail. Adding a bow and cool ribbon will dial in the perfect look.

A high ponytail and a bow? What’s not to love! On a fierce high pony, try adding your accessory or Everyday Bow to the front of the pony instead of the back. Whether you are heading out the door to yoga or running to a meeting, this look will for sure get you stopped on the street!

Short hair gets put into the boring category or hard to work with category often because it can be hard to style. So, I’d like to encourage everyone to keep chic! Accessory’s will be your best friend after a big chop! Just sweep the sides up and into a rubber band, keeping it loose and soft, then add a small bow to finish off the look!

This picture-perfect look is so great for everyday hustle and bustle! You can’t go wrong with a sweet simple swept up style and a simple black bow to go along with it. Take only the crown section of hair, leaving the bangs or front hairline pieces out. Secure the hair low with a rubber band, then add a soft wave to the hair that is left out and add your small Everyday Bow.

While I adore the look of a black silky ribbon, the beauty of self-made bows for hair is that you can use a stripe matching your clothes, too. This red bow in hair is an elegant edition to the red attire and would also look great with white and navy blue.

Nowadays, when shorter haircuts and extreme styles are super-popular, mullet cut can look a bit outdated. However, you can change this. Add tapered sideburns and facial hair, and you will look trendy again!

Mullet cut doesn`t necessarily combine two contrasting lengths. You may leave your top a little bit longer than your sides, add layers and side bangs, and you will have an ideal cut for your wavy hair.

A rare man would work with a curling iron or a straightener to style some waves or flicks, but if your hair is curly, you may also rock a mullet haircut that will look unique with your texture. This short style is given a dose of courtesy thanks to its naturally flipped ends.

Color-depositing shampoos and conditioners are a simple and easy way for your clients to experiment with color at home.

Rainbow hair is hotter than ever, so why not give it a whirl? Even if your hair is shorter, like a medium bob length, try braiding back the top half to show off the prism of colors you’re rocking in your hair.

Teal and red are a great hair color pair. A two-toned ‘do sporting red up top and teal or blue on the bottom can really liven up your hair in a big way.

A plethora of color is just what your blonde hair needs to get ready for summer. Introduce your ashy blonde mane to a new world of vibrant hues like teal, blue, pink and yellow. Make sure you enlist the help of a color-enhancing shampoo and conditioner to protect your beautiful color.

Take your teal locks to new, braided heights by coupling them with a cool hairstyle. Split your colored mane down the middle and braid both sides upward toward the top of the head. Once you hit the crown create a messy bun on each side. Don’t worry about it looking too imperfect. The messier, the better.

The overall success of this look owes to a few key elements. The hair was dyed darker at the top. A variety of soft contrasting colors was chosen. Plus, every single color goes good with gray. (The gray ends are what tie it all together). Warning, this isn’t one we recommend for DIY!

Dyeing hair in pastel colors is fun. However, to get this mermaid hair color the strands need to be bleached. Make sure the stylist will take all precautions and minimize the damage for your strands. Also, remember about home treatment. Don`t be afraid to ask your stylist what to do with your hair after such an aggressive procedure.

We love, love, love the retro curls. To get the color, chose a pastel purple with a gray tint and a soft aqua for the highlights. Because the shades are similar, you don’t need to use foil or worry about bleeding. The purple is applied first, leaving sections blond for the blue to be worked through afterwards.

Mermaid hair color is all about fun. When you’ve got colorful strands, they become like accessories, turning any hairstyle under the sun into a special adornment. Choose a variety of shades that look beautiful next to each other and apply them on thin, small sections of hair. Braided up-dos will never be the same.

This is so amazing we can hardly stand it. If you have dark hair to begin with and want to know how to get colorful hair that doesn’t look like a wig, choose an ombre solution where you keep your natural hair color (or a shade close to it) at the roots and then go as bright as you wish through the length.

You can also actively seek the trend out, because hey, it exists for a reason. Just be sure when going for different colored roots and ends that the choices are a logical progression.

Dye the roots in a darker shade and start the pink and purple strands at different places, finishing with gray. For styling, curl the midshaft but leave the ends straight.

The idea of mermaid blue hair not reaching all the way to the root is fantastic for a number of reasons. The most important is that it gives you a mischievous style. Like oh you thought I was normal? Well, I’ve got a siren side, too. The other reason is that if you later want a change, you’re halfway there.

Because mermaid hair color is all about art and fantasy and creativity, it should never be just one color. If you’re shooting for a single hue, like purple, soften the look with differing shades. The result is that it actually makes it more realistic—which means you can pull the look off.

If you love bringing femininity and romance back with your wardrobe, you should know that you can definitely do it with your hair too. Soft shades like peach and pink are an easy addition to blond hair and can brighten up your look. Opt for sweet curls and rosettes when styling. Your locks are now your hair accessories.

Think you can’t go colorful with your dark locks? Think again. Bright pastels can still be done on dark hair — they just require a little more leg work. Try a purple/lavender combo that starts off rich and ends light and bright. The deep magenta will be a little easier for your dark hair to work with.

You only live once, so go nuts on your hair and try every candy color you can think of. Experiment with purple, blue and green lowlights for a sweet look that’s as cool as they get.

Sometimes, with cotton candy hair, you just can’t pick between your two favorite colors. When this happens, split your preferences and dye half and half. That way, no one can say you play favorites.

Pink has never been chicer. The big, bodacious curls show off the deep rose ombre like no other and can even extend into the “sultry” territory when worn full and voluminous.

Cookie Monster may be the inspiration for the all-blue hair look, but this ‘do is anything but monstrous. The periwinkle ends lend an ethereal, fairy-like quality that’s ultra feminine and ultra-pretty.

Turquoise hair dye isn’t like other hair dyes. It can be tricky and it takes time to achieve the result you want, so, be patient and be prepared to spend a few days – or hair appointments – working towards the right shade. For a vivid yet soft look, consider the silver to glass-like blue transition.

Two sections are twisted from both sides creating an effortless half-down style. Blending the dark metal shade into more saturated teals creates a dark, sultry hair color. Best matched with black, white, or basic hues.

This isn’t a do-it-yourself style, but it’s extremely desirous and show-stopping. Starting with a pastel turquoise, you can add pink, orange, red, purple, even green for a rainbow-colored look. With a french braid, you can create an artistic masterpiece, as each strand is beautiful and different than the next one.

The black and turquoise are separated with a high wrap-around ponytail. When let down, the colors would create a drastic – yet beautiful – ombre look. This style looks best with frosty blue eyes and a thick black cat eye. You may use hair extensions, if you don`t want to change your hair color so radically.

Dark turquoise hair is great, but what if you just want a pop of color? The fall-over hair with a side buzz utilizes three different colors to achieve a bright, rocker look. To enrapt the curls, twist the curling iron to both sides and drape the strands around one another.

If you’re headed to a music festival or EDM concert, you want to make sure you hold nothing back when it comes to your look. That’s why multi-shaded pastel turquoise hair is a must for the festival season. When worn in an equally cool hairdo — like braided messy buns — your uninhibited style and flair won’t be denied.

Contrary to the colored hair movement of the ’80s, neon locks are not reserved for hardcore punkers or artsy-fartsy crowds. So, pastel green hair can be worn as feminine and chic as you want, because this color is one for the masses. In fact, try styling it in loose beach waves for a look that’s very in now.

Light green hair doesn’t need to stand alone to shine. Go for a holographic look by incorporating green, teal, purple and pink highlights into your ‘do. Now, this look is not an easy one to achieve, but the results are so amazing, it’s totally worth the fuss. And, hey, you only live once!

Want to brighten up that blonde mane of yours even more? Try a pastel green hair look that is as funky as it is beautiful. If you’re already sporting blonde locks, the color transition should not be too difficult. However, darker hair will certainly need more bleaching and stripping prior to going green.

Looking to go ultra-trendy? Try a light teal angular bob that is slightly longer in the front. You’d be surprised by the versatility of the hairstyle, and the cool points you gain from the hair color alone are even better.

Purple hair doesn’t need to go the Crayola route. Try a toned-down, deeper version! Rich, plum hair is best for those who want to avoid going too bright.

If you’re torn between what violet hair color to go with, stop racking your brain and go with all the shades you can think of. Add some dimension by mixing bright, neon purples with soft, ashy lilacs. Your hair will have some personality and character that can’t be denied.

Perfectly weaved violet black hair color is making quite the statement these days. Jump on board the trend train and create a gradient by either sticking to your natural dark roots or dying them brown. Then, blend the bright purple hair color into the hair, starting just below the crown.

Be the unicorn of your crew with pastel violet hair styled in an elaborate pancake braid. Pancaking involves tugging at a braid to make it fuller and flatter. Pancaking a Dutch braid around the top of the head and finishing with an intricate fishtail braid along the side makes for an elaborate and beautiful formal ‘do.

      <image:caption>15. Big, Braided Updo

Who says updos need to be buns or intricate chignons? Add some class to that bright and light violet hair of yours by creating a large, thick Dutch braid down the center of the hair. Make sure it’s loose and full, to make it look more formal and updo-ish.

Get the edgiest look in town by trying an angular long bob that hits at the shoulders in the front and at the nape of the neck in the back. To add even more “cool points” to the look, create a silver ombre effect that starts with purple and transitions nicely to a sleek grey.

Crazy wayward curls are meant to stand out, so why not go the extra mile and color them a hot shade of purple? These grape-colored ringlets add a cool funky vibe to your luscious locks. Just make sure you keep your hair hydrated with moisture-packed hair products as the violet hair dye and process can dry it out.

This summer is all about keeping things fresh and unexpected!

Simply slick back your hair and apply a very firm-holding gel and add the stickers as you please.

You have no choice but to be confident in your raw authentic self. Before, I was able to adapt and change myself to fit into whatever environment I was in (ex; abandoning my “artsy” style for pageant events and following fashion standards), however when your head is shaved you are forced to show up as you are, and love it!

You really discover a new self love for your face when you shave your head. Suddenly there isn’t hair and the styling of it distracting from your facial features. Even if you don’t believe you have particularly striking features, believe me, they will be with a buzzcut!

      <image:caption>4. You Get Try Out All the Hairstyles Along the Way!

Before shaving my head I never had hair shorter than my collarbones. I was always far too afraid of what other people would think or regretting it. So I kept my hair long, despite always being curious about shorter hairstyles and bald head girls. Well, now that I’ve shaved my head and grown it out I’ve had so much fun experimenting with the extremely short Jean Seberg pixie cut, as well as the slightly longer Audrey Hepburn pixie cut I always wanted but what too afraid to try! I’ve now kept the latter haircut for over 6 months, and I’m eager to experiment with the bob after growing out the pixie.

      <image:title>5. You Begin to Rid the Ego</image:title>
      <image:caption>5. You Begin to Rid the Ego

We all have this rather prominent aspect of our consciousness called the “ego”. The ego is something I know very well I am ruled by, but I was ruled by the ego more so whilst I was wrapped up in the beauty pageant world. To be ruled by the ego is not always to suggest you have an inflated confidence, it can mean the opposite. The ego isn’t our true selves, but rather our image of self. Often times we grow obsessed with this false image, especially in a world very driven by ego, with the overflux of advertisements we absorb. Shaving my head assisted me in realizing the unimportance and impermanence of ego. Having long hair was just one aspect of my physical form I relied on to try and gain self-love. My hair was long during the entire life because I thought without it I wouldn’t be beautiful. However, as I literally stripped myself of that idea in the physical realm by cutting my hair something happen within myself as well. I was still me, despite losing a lot of what had been defined as me for so long.

I believe that if you’ve clicked on the article with a spark of a desire to shave your head, and made it this far through the article that it’s no coincidence. I’m not a believer in coincidences. I remember exactly where I was when the universe planted the seedling of an idea in my mind to shave my head to protest beauty standards. I thought I was crazy. But I knew the universe would not plant an idea in my head to harm me. Seeds are only planted to grow. I came out the other end blooming with self love. Take the time to reflect inward and ask if this is a soul desire of yours. And if you’re waiting for a sign, this is it.

Soft, flowing long locks are gorgeous on any girl, and this hairstyle easily plays up the femininity of the quintessential girly girl. Have plenty of bobby pins on hand for this one, and once you braid the middle section, ditch the hair elastic and let hair flow naturally. Perfect when you aren’t planning on scheduling hair cuts for awhile.

      <image:caption>1. Opal Braid

Opal is popular because it is a birthstone and looks great in jewelry. But, it also serves as inspiration for a hair color thanks to the blend of pink, blue and purple. This trend usually combines blue and purple with light pastel hues for the overall color that is similar to, but softer than, galaxy dye.

Mermaid hair is meant to look like the different colors of the ocean. While many people might gravitate towards bright green, purple and blue hair invokes the image of the moon dancing on water at night. It is dark yet colorful at the same time.

Shine bright like a diamond without dropping the cash necessary for the real thing. Take dark blue and purple strands to the edgier territory with a fun undercut design in the shape of the popular gem. Both the shaved section and big braid will add texture to a short cut.

Unicorn color does not always have to be a silvery blend of pastel hues. Mixing dark purple and green into a navy blue base creates a dramatic yet subtle combination of shades. This is perfect for women with naturally dark hair so that the new growth looks seamless with the rest of the style.

Twilight is not just the name of a sexy vampire series; it’s also the beauty of colors in the late evening sky. Purple and pink and blue blend to create an amazing wash of color that looks equally stunning when applied as a hair dye. Layers will really show off the different shades in the style.

Galaxy hair can also be created with chunky highlights, instead of ombre or multidimensional highlights and lowlights. If you are attempting a new color at home, this would be easier to do with a brush and foil than a more complicated process.

Sometimes attempting your own hair color has its benefits, you can save money and you know exactly what you want, but when it comes to a multidimensional color that creates depth, it really should be left to the professionals. In this case, you really do get what you pay for.

Adding silver to purple and blue hair creates a pearlescent look meant to mimic the colors shown when light hits a pearl. It looks different at every angle and is anything but basic. A small top knot is a great weekend look for ladies with short cuts.

If you think rainbow highlights won’t show up on black hair, here is your proof that they will—and they will look awesome. Adding other colors into blue and purple hair creates a shimmering ribbon effect that can’t be missed.

With an extra dose of volume and the two-tone color, this is definitely a style for a woman with a lot of personality and confidence. If you don’t want to spend hours with a hot curler every morning, use flexi-rods overnight to get beautiful bouncy curls by morning.

Long hair with minimal layers tends to lack movement and shape. Adding braids or twists into the style helps to remedy this, and so does blending different colors. It’s a quick way to give your look a makeover in under 15 minutes.

If you don’t trust yourself when attempting highlights in your purple and blue hair, a two-tone look is a viable alternative. Simply dye the top part of your hair one color and the bottom part another for a fun blended look.

You don’t need too long hair up top to try a flat top. Also if your hair is not thick or dense enough, it won’t stand straight in longer lengths, so, a short flat top is the only possible variation if you want this style.

A flat-top haircut is already a style that commands a lot of attention, but when you add some edgy shaved designs, you take it to the next level. In this example the designs are along the sides, while the flat-top is extending down to create a pointed look in the back.

Here’s a conservative version of a flat-top. The pompadour is often associated with past decades and a neatly coiffed appearance, however, you can bring the style into the modern era by combining it with a flat-top, as seen in this photo.

When your hair grows out, it’s getting heavier and loses its mobility and attractiveness. A haircut with layers, where the difference between the shortest and the longest lock is significant, can improve the situation. Such a haircut removes unnecessary bulk of thick brown long hair and gives it the enjoyable bounce.

Going grey does not have to be a full on venture – adding a touch of grey highlights to your raven locks easily puts you on trend. Hints of gray and blue ombre draw the eye down to the tips of the hair, so, make sure you have no split ends.

Light blue strands spreading out over salt and pepper hair would be stunning on any occasion and in any setting. One of the benefits of the gray hair trend is how it works for a neutral base color that can take on other more pronounced hues.
