Hair Trends 2024
As we bid farewell to 2023 and embark on the exciting new year of 2024, a wave of fresh and innovative hair trends is poised to sweep the beauty scene. From the release of Pantone of the Year: Peach Fuzz, to versatile cuts, natural textures and playful styling techniques, these trends promise to redefine our hair game and inspire a whole new era of self-expression.
1. Embrace Your Natural Texture: The Curly, the Wavy, the Wild
In a world that often glorifies uniformity, 2024 ushers in a celebration of natural textures. Curly coils, wavy tendrils, and textured pixie cuts are all in vogue, emphasising individuality and embracing the beauty that comes with embracing our natural selves. In recent years we’ve moved so far away from entertaining styles that our hair just doesn’t want to play ball with, and 2024 is really reinforcing that. Embrace the natural.
2.Graceful Cuts with a Playful Twist: Elegance Meets Edginess
Sleek, sophisticated cuts are always in style, but in 2024 with a twist – versatility. Bobs, lobs, and pixies are being reimagined with layers, textural elements, and playful styling techniques that add a touch of personality. These versatile cuts can take you from day to night with ease. We’re feeling the French or Italian bob, lots of movement, the kind of cut you can’t stop swishing around.
3.Mullet Madness: Out of the 80s and Into the Now
Remember that rebellious mullet from the 80s? Well, it's back, baby! But this time, it's got a modern twist. Shorter sides and longer, textured top sections create a dynamic and edgy look that's both daring and stylish. If you're feeling adventurous, give the mullet a try – you might just love it. (You’ll certainly love the extra 30 mins you’ll get back from not styling tonnes of hair in the morning!)
4. Sustainable Hair Care: Kind to Your Hair (and the Planet)
Sustainability is taking centre stage in the beauty industry, and hair care is no exception. Organic products, reusable tools, and eco-friendly packaging are becoming increasingly popular, allowing us to embrace beauty without compromising our values. Awareness has grown over the past 5 years about what is actually in our shampoo and conditioner, and how this affects our scalp, our hair and overall health.
5. Pantone of the Year: Peach Fuzz
Firstly, not to be confused with the delicate, albeit unwanted hair on ones face. But the gorgeous, pastel coral that the council of the Pantone Institute have deemed COTY2024. This couldn’t bring us more joy. If you’re a full on blonde, this is perfect for you - applied in the form of a temporary toner to switch up your upcoming spring look. It’s a resounding yes from us.
In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it's easy to neglect our hair health. But in 2024, we're prioritising inner health for outer radiance. A balanced diet, proper scalp care, and stress management are all key to promoting healthy hair growth and shine. Take some time for yourself and pamper your mane – you deserve it!
6. Hair Tech Innovation: Your Hair's New BFF
Hair technology is constantly evolving, making it easier than ever to achieve your hair goals. From smart brushes that analyse hair health to dual stylers that dry whilst they smooth, these innovations are transforming the hair care game.
Final Words
At the heart of all these trends lies a simple message: have fun with your hair! Experiment, express yourself, and let your mane be a source of joy. Your hair should be something you love, not something you stress about. So relax, have fun, and let your hair be your ultimate accessory.
