9 2024 Hair Trends for Women

1. Blunt Bob
The blunt bob is here to stay, thanks in most part to Hailey Bieber, and other influencers who have since followed suit. In 2023, Bieber chopped her locks into a blunt, chin-length bob, and her loyal fans wasted no time emulating the gorgeous trend-setter. While many people tend to let their hair grow out in winter, by the time spring 2024 rolls around, the blunt bob is expected to make a huge comeback. Although this is a super chic, low-maintenance style, keep in mind that this haircut isn’t for everyone. Talk to your hairstylist for their honest opinion about the blunt bob for you.

2. Headbands
There’s no denying that headbands are making their way back into the style sector. Celebs including Sydney Sweeney, Zendaya, Ashley Park, Bella Hadid, and so many others have been rocking the look for the past year, and given the hyper-feminine trends of late, headbands are here to stay. Black headbands have been having a serious moment and are the perfect way to elevate an evening look. 60s-inspired puffed headbands are also everywhere, and elastic headbands have made their way from workout classes to an elevated street style piece. Wear them casual or dress them up, headbands are versatile and oh, so chic.

3. Sleek Hair
Sleek, pulled back buns and ponytails are an ultra chic way to wear your hair and keep it out of your face. It’s also the perfect hairstyle for third or fourth day hair. Along with slick back looks, wearing your hair down in a wet-look style will give you that cool girl aesthetic. Sleek hair goes with everything from jeans and a tee, to a sweatsuit, to a sexy, glam dress. To get the sleek, pulled back look, use a boar bristle brush and a strong-hold hair gel. For the wet hair down styles, smooth globs of hair oil from roots to ends for a wet, shiny finish without crunch.

4. Bronde
Bronde is a happy medium between blonde and brunette, and offers its wearers a natural, low maintenance glam. The hair world is moving away from platinum blonde and heavily highlighted strands, and moving more toward a softer, more natural look. A stylist typically uses a mix of highlights and lowlights to achieve the bronde look. The best way to get the hair colour your want? Bring inspo photos to your stylist. Celebs from J-Lo to Hailey Bieber, Margo Robbie, and Chrissy Teigan have all done a variation of bronde.

5. Layered Lob
For those who think the blunt bob will have them looking more like Willy Wonka than Hailey Bieber, the layered lob is the perfect alternative. It allows you to leave your hair slightly longer, but adds in layers to create dimension. Decide with your hairstylist where you want to see your shortest layer and fill out the layers from there. Curtain bangs are stunning paired with a layered lob, especially styled in a blow out.

6. Bows
Another accessory that’s going to be big in 2024 is the hair bow. The coquette aesthetic has been on the rise (a mix of girlycore with sultry old English elegance) and bows are a must-have for this vibe. You can throw a bow in your hair with basically any outfit, from an oversized cardigan with jeans, to a party dress, to a blazer with trousers. It’s one of the easiest ways to elevate your style without putting a ton of effort in, plus, it’s cute as heck.

7. Side Bangs
Side-swept bangs are cool again (sorry, Gen-Zs!). Case in point: a noticeable chunk of celebs who attended the Met Gala in December 2023 wore side parts and side-swept bangs. From Dua Lipa, to America Ferrera, Cara Delivigne, Keke Palmer, Eva Longoria, and so many more, it was clear the side part is back with a vengeance. The great thing about side-swept bangs is you can make them your own- you can easily personalize them to harmonize with your hairstyle, whether you have long layers, a long bob, or even a pixie cut.

8. Subtle Highlights
While the past couple of years have seen a return to the chunky highlights of the ‘90s and early 2000s, this year will see more subtle, blended highlights. For blonde, bronde highlights will reign supreme, brunettes can get the look with subtle ribbons of walnut and nutmeg underneath and through the length, and red heads can achieve the “kettle copper” look by blending shades of apricot and peach throughout the hair.

9. Effortless Bends
When it comes to trendy hairstyles, the easier the better, and it doesn’t get much easier than a subtle bend. No matter your hair length, an ever-so-slight bend is the perfect way to get a model off-duty look, and it’s easy to create at home. Take a few random sections of hair and run your flat iron down, adding a slight flip throughout. Spritz some texture spray to keep the shape, while allowing it to have life.
