Trending Hair Styles Happening Right Now Perfect for All Ages
This spring’s hairstyle trends are all about embracing individuality in terms of color, shape, and in some cases, even texture. No matter your age, there is a hairstyle trend out there that has your name on it, and it can be customized to suit your needs. Here are some of the best styles for 2018 that will suit you whether you’re 21 or 71.
The Low, Messy Ponytail
Long hair isn’t just for twenty-somethings anymore. In fact, more women than ever before are starting to keep their long tresses. If you prefer longer hair and you’re ready for a style that suits the season, you can’t go wrong with the low-messy ponytail. Simply start off with some beachy waves, then pull it back to the nape of your neck and secure. If necessary, tease up the part of the ponytail closest to your neck to really add volume.
The Shaggy, Wavy Pixie
It’s doubtful that pixie cuts will ever truly go out of style, but this year’s version of the timeless classic is also a bit messy. The shaggy, wavy pixie is perfect if you have naturally wavy hair and you’re looking to add some extra volume. By changing the colors, the part, and the way you style it, it’s perfectly suited for every woman of every age who is interested in shorter hair.
Multi-Textural Effects
Another big trend that’s expected to show up this spring is the multi-textural look that involves creating a wet look and a dry look at the same time. This works well with longer “boy-cuts” parted on the side and straightened out. Most of the head of hair is left chocolate brown and coaxed into a gelled wet look, but the very top of the hair, which is cut slightly shorter than the sides, is dyed honey blonde, teased out, and given a dry appearance.
The Long Bob
If you want a style that you can turn from playful to elegant in a matter of minutes, there’s nothing like the long bob. It’s back again in all its many styles, ranging from bouncy, curly bobs falling just below the shoulders to long, straight ones with a center part. If you’re curious about what might work best for you, here are a few guidelines:
- If you have a narrow face, a straight, long bob will work wonders. Cut at just the right length and parted in the right way, it can draw attention to your best features and make your face look fuller and rounder.
- If you have a rounder face, a curly, voluminous long bob is your best bet. The extra height makes your face look less round and provides a gorgeous frame.
No matter what your age, you can pull off almost any hairstyle you choose – if it’s created by the right stylist and in the right way. You can pull off that pixie cut, and you can absolutely grow your hair to the middle of your back if that’s what you prefer. These styles are all the rage right now, and they look just as great on twenty-somethings as they do on their mothers.
