Is it time for you to get a new look? From time to time, you may feel like changing up some aspects of your appearance. Many women like to experiment with different hairstyles as they are an excellent way to make a statement. The best part is that hairstyles aren’t permanent, so you can always switch between your favorite styles or choose not to return to one that doesn’t suit you! In this article, we share with you some of the most popular hairstyles for women to consider in 2021.
Low-Maintenance Waves
Are you a fan of the effortless wavy look? If so, it’s time to say goodbye to the curling products and learn how you can achieve that low-maintenance wavy look in 2021. Whether your natural hair is straight, wavy, or curly, this is a look you can achieve with some work.
Here’s how: ask your hairdresser makes perpendicular cuts into your layers. This will ensure that your layers don’t turn out blunt, which will not make for a good look when air drying. To keep your hair looking amazing, section it while it’s still wet from showering and apply some leave-in conditioner. You can then gently twist your hair to maintain the curls you want.
Chin-Length Bob
Thinking of going short, but not quite ready to rock a pixie? Don’t fret; chin-length bobs are here to stay. If you are sick of spending too much time on hair maintenance, going short may just be for you in 2021. Chin-length bobs are a classy and timeless style that exudes confidence. Whether you are in your 20’s or 50’s, this is a look you can rock anytime, anywhere.
Although you may not need to spend as much time as haircare, what shorter styles require is more frequent trims and washes. To this end, dry shampoo can become your best friend if you don’t have the time to wash your hair every other day!
Long Lob
Would you like to go shorter but consider a bob too short for your liking? Well, what about a long lob? Shoulder-length cuts have been popular for a long time, and the best part is that you will not need frequent trims if you are going for the long lob look. In fact, this hairstyle can be even easier to maintain when it has grown past your shoulders! This cut fits pretty much any face shape and you can always change it up by adding layers and bangs.
Long and Sleek
Do you belong to the “long hair, don’t care” tribe? If so, here’s one looks for you to try in 2021: long and sleek. You may have been rocking the beach waves for some time and loving it, but when you are looking for a change that doesn’t compromise on length, long and sleek is the look for you. Or if you are looking to grow your hair longer than you have ever worn it, now’s the time!
Maintaining long and sleek hair may be a little more time-consuming, but it’s definitely doable. An important tip to remember when keeping your hair sleek instead of scraggly is to use a serum when it’s still wet from the shower. This will help to keep hair smooth, shiny, and hydrated.
Bangs
Think back to the last time you got bangs, no matter if they were straight cut, sideswept, or curtain bangs. How long has it been? If you are looking to try a new look without changing up the length of your hair, consider bangs. They immediately add some personality to your look and can serve as a flattering face-framing layer.
When considering bangs, there are different styles to choose from. This includes:
· Chandelier bangs: If you aren’t looking to go too extreme, chandelier bangs are your best bet. These bangs frame the side of your face and bring out your eyes. Although you can achieve this look with side or middle partings, middle parted bangs will frame your face with their long and soft layers.
· Curtain bangs: Curtain bangs are longer at the sides with soft ends. As they are shorter in the middle, they give the appearance of being thicker at the side. This look can be achieved with short bangs that sit just below your brows or with longer face-framing layers.
Invisible Layers
Blunt and obvious layers are no longer in. In 2021, it’s all about invisible layers that accentuate your features in a subtle way, be it your eyes or your cheekbones. This is achieved by adding slight layers around your face that usually starts at chin length before proceeding downwards. Layers should be blended to keep the look seamless. When done right, invisible layers can open up your face, drawing attention to your face shape and other facial features.
Haircare and Maintenance is Important
So, which look have you decided to go with in 2021? Is it the chin-length bob, long lob, or long and sleek look? Or are you getting bangs for the first time in many years? Regardless of which hairstyle you have chosen, haircare and maintenance remain the most important in keeping your look fresh and your hair healthy. To this end, you will need to choose the most suitable products for your hair type.
