Hair fashion of 2021 is going to be a mix of wild and timeless classics. You can go all out with the colors and accessories, but the styles and cuts are what we’ve known and loved for decades. Therefore, if you are looking for a change, this year is the right time to do it. The bolder you get, the better!
Pixie Cut to Rule Them All
While there is some trendy styling for all common haircuts, it’s the pixie cut that will rank at the top next year. No matter what pixie style you choose, you are going to get it right. This cut shows off self-confidence and there is a flattering variety of it for every face shape.
However, you shouldn’t just stop at getting the bold cut. To be trendy come next year you should also choose some unusual coloring for it. Go for the balayage if you want something simple but striking at the same time. But if you are up for something more, choose any mix of colors that you love. Even single-color should stand out from the mass. Go for purplish-silver instead of platinum or strawberry-coral instead of regular red.
And play with your styling as well. Sleek your bangs back for a business meeting or get the rumpled just-rolled-out-of-bed look for a day out with friends. Also, don’t forget accessories that can help you change your look without actually changing it. Remember, if you get creative, no matter how short your pixie cut is, you can transform it easily.
Ponytail Is Still King
Times come and go but the ponytail remains. This is one of the ultimate hairstyles that can fit any occasion and make you look romantic, sophisticated, or totally wild depending on how you play it. Don’t worry if your hair isn’t long enough to make this style look truly impressive. Ponytail extensions will do the trick easily and using them will provide you more flexibility with styling. That is the key if you want to rock the ponytail look to the fullest.
Depending on the situation, go with a sleek or messy ponytail. For a romantic date, make a half-French braid and shape your hair in soft waves. Then tie off your locks into a side-ponytail. Add a floral hair ornament to complete the look.
Go for a high ponytail when you want to project strength and sophistication. This look can be fit for a boardroom or for a concert, just look at Ariana Grande.
Accessorize to the Fullest!
Hair accessories will be the true outlet for your personal style with hair trends in 2021. There is no single type of accessory that will be the most fashionable. Instead, you are welcomed to create new looks that will draw attention and show off your personality.
There are many ways to wear each hair accessory you can think of, be it a barrette or a scrunchie. You can always match the accessory to your outfit or even make it a statement piece for your look of the day. Again, this will allow you to transform your style completely at will. This kind of flexibility is the true trend of 2021.
That said, shiny metal accessories will definitely be among the trendiest pieces next year. Gold and silver, in particular, are the lucky colors of 2021. Also, you don’t necessarily have to wear them in metal. Golden ribbons or a silver silk headscarf will work just as well.
Go Bolder with the Color
There is no most popular hair color for 2021, but there is definitely a trend, which is to go bolder no matter what. Take a look at Billie Eilish’s neon roots and see what you should be aiming at. Neon colors, multi-colored highlights, or a head full of bubblegum-pink curls, it all rocks come next year.
In fact, the more creative you get the better. You might be the one to go viral on Instagram or TikTok and start a new trend yourself.
So, if there ever was a crazy hair color experiment you’ve never dared to try, now you should. Even if it’s not your original idea, remember that everyone wears color differently. Therefore, no matter what you choose, it will look unique on you personally. However, do consider using at least semi-permanent dye just so you can experiment with the colors more.
