Did you know on average, someone gets a new haircut twenty to thirty times a year? The reasons may vary from simple maintenance to trying something new. But regardless of your reason, getting a new haircut is one way to express yourself.
And if you’re looking for inspiration for a new style, you have come to the right place. Here are the hottest haircuts for 2024 that you will see in numerous magazine spreads and celebrities’ Instagram.
Top 6 Haircut Ideas to Copy
- Birkin Bangs
Jane Birkin was a British actress, model, and singer who was immortalized in the form of Hermes Birkin bags. But it was not her only contribution to the fashion world, the flat eyelash-length bangs are also popular as Birkin bangs.
You can rock this style with various other haircuts. Whether it’s long or short, the Birkin bangs can be the accent that will complement your style.
If you have a round face, you may be worried about how the bangs will frame your face. You can slightly adjust the length to create the illusion of wispy bangs.
- Long Layers
In case you want to keep your long hair, you can opt for the long layers look. Each layer will fall softly and create a gorgeous wave on your hair.
This is especially perfect if you want to have a little texture and volume to your hair without sacrificing too much or getting the shag cut. And when the hair finally grows, you can get a blunt cut or trip the layers to recreate the effect.
- Long Bob
This haircut is popular and stays classy for many reasons. And long bob, or lob, itself is unique since it covers chin-length to shoulder-blade length.
If you want to appear a little edgy, you can always opt for a chin-length that hugs your jawline and frames your face like Natalie Portman in Leon the Professional. You also can opt for a softer, feminine style ala Keira Knightley.
- Baby Bangs
Very short bangs may not be for everyone, but it’s one cut that will be popular in 2024. Many people think baby bangs are the byproduct of failed DIY cuts. But this style can be very cute and edgy at the same time.
You can rock baby bangs with long or short hair. And when it grows out, you can use mousse to add volume and create a curtain or Birkin bangs.
- Razor Pixie
It takes a lot of guts to get short hair, especially a pixie cut that is cropped short near the nape. However, pixie is also a popular style that you will see every two or three years.
For 2024, a textured pixie that is cut with a razor instead of scissors will be one of the hottest cuts. This style exudes confidence and is perfect for edgy souls.
If you’re curious about the style but too afraid to dive in, you can try the Pixie Bob. This style is synonymous with Diana, Princess of Wales who rocked the style for many decades. It’s edgy but feminine and you can always grow your hair out and try new styles in months.
- Hybrid Haircut
It’s time to combine several types into one. You can have long layers with blunt ends or combine the layers with your long bob. An asymmetrical bob with a side swept bang or even a razor trim also can be a good idea.
2024 is the year for you to explore as many haircuts as you want and find your style. You can be bold and try the ideas you’ve been keeping in your head for a while.
No need to worry if the combinations don’t seem to work. Several cuts take time and require you to grow the hair first to see the final result.
Colors and Styling
The natural blonde and brunette colors and everything in between will be back in trend. You also will see the rise of bronde or brunette-blonde, where you mix blonde with brunette colors. Ombre colors also will be more prominent instead of highlights.
As for the styles, you can expect more quiet luxury that boasts healthy locks and volumes instead of crazy styles. Celebrities are going back to the effortlessly chic look that is easy to maintain. And you can copy their style at home.
One concern you may have is how the cut fits your face type. You may be lucky enough to have an oval-shaped face that suits most haircuts. But even if you have an oblong or a round face, these cuts still work great on you.
At best, you will need minimum adjustment to get the best result. Today, you can use AI models to try various styles. But the best way is to talk with your hairdresser about your ideas and see how they work their magic.
