Trending Fall Hairstyles to Try This Season
As summer fades into autumn, it’s the perfect time to refresh your hairstyle. From back-to-school looks to the glam of awards season, we’ve rounded up the definitive hairstyles you should consider this fall.
Expert Insights
I’ve gathered insights from celebrity hairstylists, including Clayton Hawkins and Marc Ballance, who share their favorite fall trends. Let’s dive into the styles set to dominate September through November.
1. Steep Side Parts
The return of deep side parts is making waves. Hawkins notes that shifting your part can instantly update your look, adding volume and a refreshing twist to your everyday hairstyle.
2. Up But Down
Half-up, half-down styles are a fantastic way to incorporate your natural texture. Ballance recommends this effortless style, which looks chic whether your hair is wavy, curly, or braided.
3. Soft Blowouts
This season’s aesthetic leans toward soft, flowing blowouts. Ballance emphasizes the beauty of healthy-looking hair that moves freely, ditching the overly styled look for one that feels modern and fresh.
4. Autumnal Bandanas
Bandanas are back, especially in autumnal colors. They add a fun, casual element to your fall ensembles, making them perfect for outings like apple picking.
5. Halo Braids
Halo braids offer a regal touch perfect for special occasions. They provide an elegant alternative to slicked-back styles and can be easily achieved with simple braiding techniques.
6. Wispy and Whimsical
Finally, wispy hairstyles are trending. Embrace feathered bangs and ends for a dreamy, romantic vibe, and don’t shy away from adding some texture spray for that perfectly tousled look.
