The times when one or two trends dominated for an entire year, or even a few, are a thing of the past. Thanks to social networks, trends and with them micro-trends appear almost every week and just as quickly disappear from our sight. This applies to everything – fashion for certain items of clothing, jewelry, makeup and, of course, haircuts. It’s not a good idea to make an appointment with a hairdresser after watching a banned tape, not only on social networks. Maybe in a month there will be no trace of the trend, but you will admire the strange haircut in the mirror for a long time. Our advice is not to scold, but take your time to experience the new trend and see where it will be after a while. And only then go for cardinal transformations in their appearance.
Last year (like the previous year) saw a resurgence of trends from the 80s and 90s under more modern names. Thus, with minimal changes, the mullet haircut became an “octopus”, and a voluminous hairstyle in the style of Farah Fossett became a “butterfly”. Bob has gained particular popularity in its various variations – over the past year it has been worn by Selena Gomez, Kourtney Kardashian, Emma Chamberlain and others.
The “animal” haircut, bob and layered cut trend will continue this year. True, now their length will be minimal. According to Pinterest’s predictions for 2023, the popularity of short hair will grow strongly. Therefore, below are seven haircuts that you will soon be seeing everywhere.
cropped bob
Bob is one of the classic haircuts that never goes out of style. Only for one or more hair lengths and hairstyles the trend changes. So, if last year was the time of a smooth bob with a neat cut, then 2023 can be called the year of the natural texture of the strands and the length to the chin. Curly, wavy, straight – a haircut will look harmonious with any type of hair, so it is versatile.
Step form “under the pot”
For the past few years, the “shaggy” haircut, or more commonly known as the shag, has been appearing on trend charts every year. As with Bob, only the length and shape change. In 2023, the familiar “potty” shape will become a modern version of the step. In foreign magazines it is called more cheerfully – bowl cut and mushroom (that is, “bowl” or “mushroom”). True, the length of the chin will be relevant, not at the same level as the bangs.
layered haircut
Layering, layering, and once again layering is the main trend in hairstyles of the past few years. The so-called tree 70s, from which the roots of the popularity of such haircuts as mullet (sloppy layers in the style of the 80s), “Rachel” (more even, smooth layers), “butterfly” (volumetric layers, like Farrah Fawcett grow ).
Barely noticeable explosions
The popularity of bangs is also not going away. Especially the one that gently flows along the entire length of the hair, while also framing and shaping the face. This variant is a mix of curtain bangs and Jane Birkin bangs. It suits almost any oval of the face, any hair length from medium and very long to short, and also gives the image a light and airy look.
Bob in the style of the 80s
The 80s bob is a haircut that was born out of the popularity of the old mullet and the shag. They have triumphantly returned to the trending list in 2020 and are now getting new variations every year. The 80s style bob is a medium length bob that blends the grown-up bangs with layering of the rest of the hair. It can be made both shorter and longer with strips that go over the shoulders.
“Octopus”
Another variation of TikTok’s layered haircut that emerged after “jellyfish” and “cobra” is “octopus”. It looks like a classic cascade, but with minor differences. Most of the hair remains in the upper layers, forming the body of an octopus, and the remaining length resembles tentacles (hence the name of the haircut).
One-length haircut
The layering fashion can’t last forever. Therefore, those who make these haircuts in the wave of popularity of step, mullet and “octopus” will gradually strive for the same length. Moreover, hairdressers say this trend will start as early as 2023. Lovers of evenly cut straight hair, you may think that the time has come!
