Hairstyle Trends of 2022!

Since the pandemic, we have all fallen victim to a botched at-home haircut or hairstyle.
But, 2022 is coming in hot and seems to be the year of experimentation. The 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and
2000’s are all coming back! This year is the year of expression. So, whether you’re debating
letting your gray grow out or dying your whole head bright pink, you should do it. Since this is
the year of expression, this means more people are embracing bolder haircuts, textures, and hues
like never before.

Long layers and extra volume seen majorly in the 70’s and 90’s are coming back. Expert
stylists predict a rise in cutting techniques and shapes with soft layering. Expect to see 90’s long
layers and your stylist focusing on adding more volume while keeping your hair length in tact.
A sweet, bold, and blunt bob is coming back as well. The bob will always be a classic and
something that people always bounce back to. The shorter the better expert stylists say.
Even if you are by the book and very traditional, giving thought to a fantasy color might be
worth your while. Fantasy colors are predicted to be very prominent with 2022. This aligns with it
being the year of expressionism. Balayages and highlights had their moment in 2021 but it’s time
for color. A lot of green’s, orange’s, and other vibrant colors are showing up so far in 2022. If you
do choose to dye your hair at home, use products for color-treated hair to maintain your shine and
shade.
If your hair is curly and going natural is your way to go, the 2022 trends didn’t forget about
you! Since the 70’s are coming back, the afros and bouncy curls are back and here to stay!
“People will definitely be getting creative with dimensional color, bangs and volume to amplify
their curls and wave” an expert stylist says.
We could never forget an amazing 70’s retro fringe. Trade in your long bangs for a
structured fringe to give your hair the illusion of thickness. This style is categorized by choppy
ends and lots of texture to add dimension and that rock’ n ‘roll look. “Hairstyles in 2022 will,
without a doubt, pay homage to the iconic looks worn in the ’70s,” says a expert stylist. “The option to
wear your fringe or face frame in a shag is one way to get the look while keeping it modern.”
If you’re debating adding something new to your hair or changing things up, this year is your
year. At the end of the day, it’s just hair. It’ll grow back or it’ll fade. Do what you want with your
hair and don’t worry about what anybody else thinks! 2022 is the year of expression!
