How would you describe this look?

For me, this look is for people with a lot of personality. It is daring and really good if you want to look something different. I love it when they ask for something creative. This hairstyle is usually for men, but why not?!

Any advice for someone considering it?

Consider your face and type of hair, whether it’s straight or curly.

Also, think about how you would like to make your hairstyle every day. The cut should be adapted according to your lifestyle. Find a good professional for advice about your new hairstyle.

Edgy Undercut with Design

@simontownley

Q&A with style creator, Simon Townley
Hairdresser @ Simon Townley Hair in Burnley, Lancashire

How would you describe this look?

This look is a modern haircut that is for the individuals. It’s androgynous yet still very feminine at the same time.  It’s structured and playful. My favorite thing about this is the way it can be moved depending on moods and the flash of colors are what I love to create depth and texture. (Matrix color)

Any advice for someone considering it?

If you’re having this look, I would remind people that you have to have the time to spend on it. People think short hair is easier and less maintenance when it’s actually the opposite. This needs texture products and shines adding to keep the hair looking on point.

I personally use Matrix mess maker and smooth blow dry cream also from Matrix, and mix as a cocktail to blow dry. Finished with the high riser in the root area to give it life.

Asymmetrical Bob

@ktmac614

Q&A with style creator, Katie Martin
Lead Master Hairstylist @ Prodigo Day Spa & Salon in Harleysville, PA

How would you describe this look?

This is an asymmetrical inverted bob with a lot of texture to give it movement and volume. I love the versatility of the cut. It can be worn sleek and straight or with a little wave (as shown), or with more of a curl and teased for ultimate volume and texture. I did a color melt to pair with this cut 5Rv in the roots to the shaft into a 7C with a little 7CR in the shaft to the ends.

The coolest thing about this cut is how fun the whole look is. The deep red into the copper ends to accent the front of the cut with textured ends and to top it off styling it is super easy!

Any advice for someone considering it?

This is a very trendy cut and is great for someone who has fine hair that is looking to get a fuller look and great volume. I would recommend this cut for anyone with angular facial shapes such as heart-shaped, oval-shaped, and square-shaped faces.

It can be very quick to style so it is perfect for someone who wants a great look but doesn&rsquot have a lot of time to spend on their hair in the morning. On damp hair, I use R&Co Dallas spray on the roots paired with the R&Co Chiffon mousse. I always say a great blowout goes a long way! I prefer the Olivia Garden ceramic & ion 2-1/8in brush and over-directing each section of the hair starting in the back.

The hair framing the face I give a little bend with the brush, directing it away from the face, and hit it with cool on the ends. If you have the time you can always put a few waves in it using a 1-1/4in curling iron (leaving the ends out for a textured look) or using a flat iron. To finish the look I always go to a texture spray I prefer either Unite Texturiza or R&Co Trophy, they are my absolute favorites! I just spray, play, and tousle the hair!

Deep A-Line Lob

@kat_beautylure

Q&A with style creator, Kat Baghdasarian
Master Stylist @ Beauty Lure Salon in Roswell, GA

How would you describe this look?

What I love about this look is that it gives the client the best of both worlds! It is edgy but girly at the same time. There are movement and body in the back but the length is maintained in the front for a nice flirty feel! The color and highlights bring dimension and add volume to any client who may have a fine hair texture.

Any advice for someone considering it?

The A-line bob does require some maintenance and styling product. To achieve the smooth a-line blowout, I used Redken Velvet Gelatine blowdry gel. Finishing product is Redken Triple Take 32 hairspray. It is not a get-up-and-go kind of style and the layers will need to be round brushed to sit properly.

Slicked Back

@gonzalito99

Q&A with style creator, Alex Gonzalez
Hairstylist @ Alex Gonzalez Hair Studio in Dallas, TX

How would you describe this look?

This look is for someone who doesn’t want to hide behind their hair. My client wanted something sexy but short. This cut is versatile when it comes to styling, as you can throw a wave in it to make it messy or add volume for a pompadour look. It’s definitely a look you can get creative with it and that’s why I love it.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This look works best with oval face shape, but I’m a strong believer that confidence can pull off any look. This cut is low maintenance and ideal for someone on the go. No matter the occasion, a slicked-back style is sophisticated enough for the grocery store or evening gala. Doesn’t matter girl, your hair still looks good! I recommend lightweight products that have a stronghold but stay away from gel or mousse as it makes hair look wet or stiff.

High Fashion Pixie

@thelittleroots

Q&A with style creator, Maryam
Hairstylist @ Volum Hair Salon & Spa in Waterloo, ON

How would you describe this look?

This pixie cut style is a cool modern mix look of style, color, and cut altogether. The haircut included short layers on top, more than the usual classic pixie, and pointy pieces on sides. It looks more modern when combined with this ash blonde color and this specific style.

I styled it to be shaggy at the back and some parts, and it transformed into smooth curls that added texture on the top and around the face, and also the volume that makes it float forward.

I like how using gold bobby pins played the main role in this hair art, because they are not hidden. They crossed each other on the side and matched in perfect harmony with the textures.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This modern pixie cut style is not limited. It could be for every hair type and face shape. Don’t hesitate to play with your hair when you style.

For example, you can draw attention by adding texture to one side or forward, by creating spikes, or by doing whatever you want that looks good on you.

Also, you can get this cool modern style by using products like dry wax or cream gel to hold the textures and to make the look flexible.

Blonde Dimension

@stylesbyalexis.gs

Q&A with style creator, Alexis Lopez
Professional Stylist @ Gordon Salon in Wilmette, IL

How would you describe this look?

This look was meant to create dimension and contrast while complimenting her haircut. I love that it has some brightness mixed in with a softer blonde to keep the transition to her natural color more fluid. My favorite part of this look is the placement. I can control depth and contrast by spacing and place them differently.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Styling would take no more than a volume spray at the top, smoother on the bottom and a round brush.

The color and cut helps the hair move. The highlights around the face add brightness to any complexion. I wouldn’t put it in the “wash-n-go” category, but a 15-20 min blowdry would do it justice. I would recommend this look for fine to medium hair looking for some extra body.

Bright Different Lob

@delorauplifted

Q&A with style creator, Delora May
Hairstylist @ Uplifted Salon in Columbia, MO

How would you describe this look?

Rolling into this year, I feel the latest hair trends are more raw, disheveled, and organic! I’m all over this! This slightly angled long bob (lob) is the perfect happy medium. I preach versatility constantly and if you’re someone looking for more of a “style” or change, I always recommend some kind of medium length haircut! I believe there’s a common misconception that shorter hair is easier, and so many people choose to take the plunge from long to a chin length bob thinking it’s going to be less work to wear and style. In all honesty, it’s really all about how much time and effort you’re willing to put into your hair! When going from long to short(er) I always suggest a lob just like this clients because of how versatile it is and how convenient a ponytail can be! At this length, you can still get your hair up into a cute bun or sleek ponytail and when wearing it down whether it’s messy, wavy, curly, or straight it can be very edgy!

Any advice for someone considering it?

My client has medium textured hair and I truly believe that any texture, whether it’s fine or coarse, could rock this length!

When it comes shaping and placement of color, I think that confidence and personality can outweigh the common traditions with what is considered appropriate and inappropriate for specific face shapes. I definitely take the shape of someone’s face into consideration when consulting with my clients but I don’t believe that if someone has a round face that means you can’t pull off chin length or above!

To achieve these waves I used a 1.25 in flat iron and gave her hair some bend right in the mid-strand, leaving her ends straighter, for a more relaxed vibe. Sometimes I curl in the same direction, and sometimes I don’t! I’m inconsistent and I feel like that really gives this style a more lived-in feel. I used Amika Un.Done Texture Spray and Puff Me Light to give her hair body and hold!

Awesomely Asymmetrical

@styled.by.serena

Q&A with style creator, Serena Vazquez
Balayage Specialist / Junior Artist @ Rockefeller’s Haute Spot in New York, NY

How would you describe this look?

I would definitely describe this look as an Edgy Ash Blonde Bob. My favorite part of this look is the haircut. Creating the right texture and shape with a good cut is what makes it so fun!

Any advice for someone considering it?

My advice to clients considering this look is to think about their lifestyle and if they will be able to maintain their hair.

When it comes to going blonde, you will have to consider investing in a good purple shampoo to prevent brass, especially for this ashy look, and a conditioning mask to prevent dryness.

I chose to go with a dark root because I know my client can’t always make time to come in for her touch up every 5-6 weeks. A shadow root is always great for those looking for a low maintenance color.

However, when having shorter hair it actually requires more styling as opposed to having a longer length.

This cut can look great straight but fun beachy waves are always my favorite way to go! This style is great for making that dimension really pop along with the texture the haircut gives it!

Unique Bright Caramel Foilayage

@ari_hairstylista

Q&A with style creator, Ariana Garcia
Colorist @ Ramirez Tran Salon in Beverly Hills, CA

How would you describe this look?

I would describe this cook as a bright caramel foilayage.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This can be a low maintenance color. It is a great color choice for dark to medium brunettes that still want their hair light and bright, but don’t want to be too blonde.

I tell my clients to always use salon quality products (sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner) to ensure a beautiful, lasting color.

Different Hair with Tousled & Effortless

@onecombahead

Q&A with style creator, Alyssa Bustamante
Hairstylist @ The Living Room Salon in Costa Mesa, CA

How would you describe this look?

I would describe this look as tousled and effortless. My favorite thing about it is the length.

Any advice for someone considering it?

My advice for this haircut is to use products to give you that tousled and effortless look. My favorite go-to product is Oribe’s Dry Texture Spray.

Updated Asymmetrical Different Shag

@jessicahairnyc

Q&A with style creator, Jessica
Senior Stylist & Educator @ Sam Brocato Salon in New York, NY

How would you describe this look?

I would describe this look as an updated asymmetrical shag. My favorite thing about this cut is that it’s interesting while still being easy to wear.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This specific style works best on hair that has some natural texture or wave.

When styling, start with a volume or texture spray on wet hair at the roots and throughout the back. Blow dry under the hair with the nozzle pointed up, and mess up the hair with your free hand while drying to encourage the hair’s natural texture. As you work toward the top and front, blow dry the hair from side to side with a paddle brush. Don’t worry about smoothing the hair completely.

Finish by mixing a bit of wax and a shine oil in your hands, scrunching this mixture into the hair starting from the back and working toward the front. Smooth and coax the natural texture into fun flips and waves. To exaggerate the asymmetrical-ness, use some wax to slick the side it’s parted on behind your ear.

Different Single Braid Style

@oddbarbie

Q&A with style creator, Audrey Large
Hairstylist @ Aud’s & Ends Hair Studio in Louisville, KY

How would you describe this look?

There are many new hairstyles trending at any point in time. Pop culture has a lot to do with this push or pull in direction as far as hairstyles, colors, and cuts go. I think it’s safe to say a lot of us have lost countless hours of our life watching Game of Thrones. Braids are in!

I’m sure most gals stare in the mirror and have no idea where to even begin on themselves. I decided to give my client something she could recreate on her own, one single braid in the center of the head. It’s a lot less stressful than trying to achieve a complex five-strand braid or fishtail tail braids! Not to mention it’s easy enough to do without spending an ungodly amount of time watching YouTube videos to figure out how to look just like Daenerys.

Any advice for someone considering it?

If you’re considering trying this look, I suggest parting the hair as thick or as thin as you’d like your braid to be. Separate and secure the hair that’os not being braided back and away.

I prefer to use a serum when braiding because it keeps the hair shiny and smooth and prevents flyaways. Lastly, secure the braid with an elastic or bobby pins. Enjoy your new look!

Contoured Balayage

@hairbysammackmin

Q&A with style creator, Samuel Mackmin
Hairstylist @ Coho Hair in Perth, WA

How would you describe this look?

What I like about this look is how the color really adds a feature around the face. Just like contouring your face using makeup, I feel hair color can achieve a similar effect!

My client had her natural hair for years with no color. Instead of doing a full head, we just brightened her up around the face.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Depending on how dark your hair color is, don’t go too bright with the lightness or else the contrast will be too strong and less natural.

I styled the hair using a 1 1/2-inch curling tong from ghd, and curled the hair away from the face before combing the curls out with a wide tooth comb. I styled using a dry oil spray and texturizing spray.

Angled-Forward Bob

@redfloralfox

Q&A with style creator, Taylor Lowe
Stylist @ Moxie Hair Salon in St. Paul, MN

How would you describe this look?

My favorite thing about the angled-forward bob is the fact that it’s very customizable for every face shape and lifestyle.

Do you like to curl your hair? Great! Let’s do less layering for a messy and choppy look. Are you more of a wash and go kind of gal? That’s fine too! Let’s keep it longer to sweep back into a quick pony or let it air dry for a more relaxed style. You can round brush and flat iron the hair for a more classic and polished look.

I believe anyone can rock a look like this. Chat with your stylist about what length and angle will work best for you.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Products are very important when you’re rocking a fun and edgy bob. I am a fan of Arrojo products because they’re cost effective and you don’t need a lot of product to get the look you’re going for.

This is her natural, rich brown color, so I used the Daily Shampoo and Daily Conditioner for shine and nourishment without weighing the hair down. I also threw in Styling Whip as a heat protectant with some hold and frizz control.

If we were to do curls, I could also use Primp Hairspray to combat static and lightly hold the waves in place. A good shampoo and conditioner can go a long way, so I always tell my guests to invest in a good one whether it’s to protect your curls, your color, or even your natural hair color.

I’m also a fan of a do-it-all styler such as a lightweight, argan-oil based mousse or gel. Less is more these days as product technology has come so far. Keep it simple, have fun, and remember that it’s just hair! If you’ve always wanted bangs, do it. If you want to pair this look with an undercut, go for it! Life is too short to have the same look all the time.

Feathered Lob

@coasthairdressing

Q&A with style creator, Ryan Pettitt
Top Stylist @ Coast Hairdressing in Bournemouth, Dorset

How would you describe this look?

This is the feathered lob, a hairstyle that Wella is now adopting and including in their latest collection.

This is the perfect haircut if your hair is not thick enough to pull off a lob. The front graduation will give the appearance of volume and thickness.

Any advice for someone considering it?

If you are someone that suffers the trials and tribulations of fine hair, this is your style! It is flattering, easy to style and perfect if you wear your hair up a lot. The shorter lengths fall down to frame the face nicely.

Make this cut your own with a fringe, bangs, or a long sweeping fringe!

Texturized Bob

@nicolasfloreshair

Q&A with style creator, Nicolas Flores
Hairstylist @ Sally Hershberger Salon in Los Angeles, CA

How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?

I would describe this as above-the-shoulder texturized bob. I tend to add a slight angle in the front for a more edgy look.

What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?

I always love encouraging clients to try and recreate my styles. The key to this style is starting with great products such as the Sally Hershberger 24K Wave Spray and a water based pomade. These products work together to add grip on your ends and create separation, making the hair look a bit more lived-in.

What type of client would you recommend this look for?

I feel this look could work on pretty much anyone. It’s an easy, low maintenance haircut that literally can be worn air dried. More and more clients are coming in requesting this short length. It’s the new “It Girl” look!

Modern Bowl Haircut

@barcalessandro

Q&A with style creator, Alessandro Barca
Stylist @ Toni&Guy Academy London in London, UK

How would you describe this look and what is your favorite thing about it?

This is a bowl haircut with a modern twist. It has a really strong, graphic shape and is a sharp, precise and very disciplined haircut. It is timeless!

What products do you recommend to maintain and recreate this look?

I’ve been working at London Fashion Week, and everyone can see how we keep the hair as natural as possible by using matte products and lightweight hairsprays.

What type of client would you recommend this look for?

The perfect density for this look would be medium/fine, but it can also work with thick density, doing an undercut as the picture shows. I always like to take into consideration the suitability, so I wouldn’t recommend this style for round face shapes.

As hairdressers, we like to push boundaries, so doing precision cutting is a skill for us!
