We’ve seen several haircut trends for the fall 2022 season. Some shapes may be fleeting; however, we’re detailing a few of the top trends that will wear well into 2023. Whether you use it as inspiration or are looking for the exact cut, get ahead of the season and find your style with these top 5 haircuts that should be on your radar.
Haircut Trends for Fall 2022
Airy Bob
Bobs of all shapes and sizes have been making the rounds this year, but the airy bob just hits differently. This cut is about creating fullness and ethereal volume within the finished look. The cut and layers will need to be tailored to your hair type to get the look. However, the main difference is that the airy bob involves weight being taken out and volume added around the crown to create a sky-high finish. When styling, start with BODY.BUILDER and finish with DOO.OVER for the perfect amount of lift.
Half-Moon Bangs
This look is ideal for anyone who wants to take their curtain bangs one step further. Half-moon bangs, also called crescent fringe, are very similar to the beloved curtain bangs. The difference is that the overall shape has a fuller feel and doesn’t include the part in the middle. Instead, these eye-skimming bangs hug the face, arching slightly as they feather out to the side.
The Wolf Cut
Ever since the shag made its way onto the scene, we’ve seen an increase in texture, layers, and a messy-sexy finish. The wolf cut takes everything we love most about a shag and elevates the look for a modern feel. Officially the look has been called a mashup of a mullet and a shag, and according to Pascal Van Loenhout DESIGN.DIRECTOR CUTTING “the look exposes contradictions of delicately textured outlines, combined with short wispy layers at the crown for effortless volume within the cut. It is a fresh approach to make this controversial style from the past conquer the world and welcome newfound popularity.”
The Butterfly Haircut
The latest trend to go viral on TikTok, the butterfly haircut, is equal parts low-maintenance and effortlessly cool. The cut explores adding layers around the face and pairs it with the softest invisible fringe to create a look indicative of butterfly wings. The look is primarily created on long lengths but can be tailored to any look. The goal is to create a mix of layers and volume around the face, achieved with the cut and styling. To get the look, prep hair with EVER.LIFT and blow dry with a round brush. Then, once dry, spray DOO.OVER throughout your hair for added lift and bounce.
The Fringed Bob
Birkin or Bardot — take your pick of bangs to pair with your bob. In addition to stacked, boyfriend, boy, and sliced bobs this season, fringe is making a huge comeback. Ideally, fringed bobs are an utterly bespoke cut that considers your natural texture pattern. For example, if you have straight hair, you may pair your bob with a micro fringe or crescent bangs. However, for those with 2A-3C hair, chin bangs or see-through fringe might be a better option for ease of styling and upkeep. Because fringe usually requires more heat styling, always prep hair with HEATED.DEFENSE before blow-drying or using hot tools to cut down on damage.
