Hair is not just an accessory for your head. It is a fashion statement, reflecting your personality and self- Confidence. There is much more to it than just cuts, colors and styles, sometimes hairstyles can be true works of art. It is no wonder than that hair trends change alongside fashion and move at the same pace as the world goes round. And like fashion, they have their own seasons. The year behind us was defined by contouring and ombre, but 2016 brings with it whole new set of hair trends which will blow you away.
Here are some of the best hairstyles we will have the chance to see in 2016.
1. Bobs to Rule Them All
Let us be honest, this classic cut has endured the peaks and valleys of popularity, but it was always present. Many stylists predict that the classic bob will be the biggest trend of the year, and really, you can never go wrong with timelessness. A bob with a twist, or shall we call it, the “wob”, is another trend to try out the upcoming season. The soft wavy bob,
as seen on Kristen Stewart, will be a major hit.
2. Au Naturel Hues
Say goodbye to Katy Perry’s shades of purple, green and bubble gum pink, and hello to natural hair hues which will complement your beauty. Artificial-looking and conspicuous hair colors will remain in the past. The future brings natural looking colors and healthy hair. The best thing about it is that you do not have to visit your stylist to accomplish that look. Just dye your hair with subtle shades or do not dye it at all and take care of it with
hair styling products from Theorie with essential ingredient for healthy hair – argan oil.
3. You Go, Warrior!
Warrior pony tail is a great thing to wear this spring/summer. It is simple, sleek and stylish, and the perfect salvation for the bad hair day. Just use some hair gel to pull your hair back into a high pony tail and add some band to step up the game. You can even wear it to an evening event and glam it up a bit with hair accessories.
4. Let’s Twist Again
Twisted buns are simple hairstyles which can be easily recreated by real women at home. The look dominated the runways from Zac Posen’s to Jason Wu’s, in its many varieties. The one thing that remained the same is that all of them were nape-levels.
Low buns are the way to go; top knots are out. It is allowed to get a little creative with your low bun and add some braids, for that extra “wow”.
5. Back to School
Remember those annoying pigtails your mom made you wear to school? Well, in 2016, they are back with revenge. Now, they are worn low and close together and when combined with goth lipstick, chockers or heavy metal accessories they can be much cooler than the one you wore on the schoolyard. If you do not trust us, trust Marni, Giles, Miu Miu and Chanel, because their fashion shows made
pigtails famous again.
6. Chica Chica Boom Chic
Spring/Summer 2016 is calling you to be brave enough to get on the dance floor with bold hair accessories similar to those worn by Portuguese Brazilian samba singer/dancer and Broadway actress, Carmen Miranda in the 1940’s. Do not worry, if you are not feeling bold enough to tuck in a cluster of bright tropical flowers in your hair, you can simply wear a feathery headpiece on the side, like the models at Diane fon Furstenberg did or you can go all the way and add some fruit into the mixture like
Dolce & Gabbana’s models.
It is clear by now that 2016 is ready for you. The only question remaining is are you ready for it? Visit your hairstylist as soon as possible and find out!
