5 Most popular hair trends of 2023

1. Claw Clip Bun
This hairstyle includes twisting up the hair and carefully clipping it back into a stylish claw clip. Typically, the wearer pulls out their front two pieces of hair to effectively frame their face. This is an easy hairstyle anyone can do. It can be worn in both a casual or lavish setting.
2. Layered curtain bang cut
This haircut involves layering long to medium-length hair, which helps frame the face. These are not regular bangs, instead of coming straight across your forehead, they sweep across the sides of the face. This allows a slimming effect. When styled, they give your hair depth and volume!
3. The Bob
This haircut means business. The short haircut that falls just below the chin, seems to have returned to popularity this year. The bob length may vary, but its commonality exists among women with a classic oval face shape. The bob can also be worn with blunt bangs and a middle part, giving the wearer a chic and elegant look. We have seen many celebs rock this look.
4. The Slick Back Bun/Pony Tail
This hair style involves a tightly gelled back bun with absolutely no fly away hairs. The bun is typically slicked with a natural boar bristle brush which helps catch all the hairs. For a bun, the hair is twisted up in a circle and secured with an elastic. Of course, a bun or pony tail is not the only way to wear this hair, elevate your look with different types of braids! This look has taken over women’s social media. Its popularity first sparked with younger audiences when it was a staple hairstyle for the ‘‘Clean Girl Aesthetic”. Meanwhile, other girls on social media showed they would do it as a ‘‘hack’’, to go another day without having to wash their hair. But there is no denying it; it looks effortless and sleek every time!
5. Heatless Curls
The heatless curls can be secured with a variety of objects. I’ve seen socks, foam rods, flexi rods, and robes be used. The wearer typically leaves their slightly dampened hair wrapped around a soft cylinder object for a few hours or overnight. After the object is removed from the hair, your’re left with curls that can be brushed out, or left as is! This method is a damage free alternative to heat used with an iron.
