2020 left us with no-frills haircare routines, eager to try anything and everything new. So, when 2021 arrived, and vaccines became available, we finally had the opportunity to experiment. Bold color changes, exciting new haircuts, and styles that would put quarantine buns to shame were all worn with abandon. This begs the question, "What hair trend will be in 2022?"
Following these two extremes, 2022 will be all about the middle ground: a mix of low-maintenance cuts and colors worth skipping the salon for bold changes. Instead of trying out bold cut and color, consider sticking to a classic color with a new cut, or vice versa. Whatever happens with my hair, one thing is certain: it feels great to start the year with a new look. Of course, "no matter what the trend, healthy hair and confidently wearing your style are always in season," according to Nicole Mangrum, Global Hair Artist, and Intro Expert.
#1 Slick Bob
Sleek bob for full new look
This look went viral after Selena Gomez was spotted wearing it, and I can see why. Wearing the typical bob haircut is risky. This look is very chic and sexy, but unlike other intricate cuts, it isn't as difficult to keep as you might think. If your hair is naturally straight, you won't need much styling. Straighten wavy hair with a flat iron, or wear it textured with premium virgin human hair.
#2 Buzz Is All In For 2022
The best look for new change
In 2022, a buzzed cut will be the ultimate cool-girl style for those looking for a big change. This requires some precision and will necessitate regular trims and touch-ups, but the time you'll save washing, drying, and styling will more than compensate for the salon visits.
I love the big chop for natural hair because it's easy to style and a great way to grow out healthy curls if you've had a lot of damage.
#3 High Wavy Ponytail
Voluminous wavy ponytail
The high, wavy ponytail is the next look you must try in 2022! This look is OUTSTANDING! Not only is this style suitable for beginners, but it can also be achieved with body wave bundles or wavy virgin Remy human hair. It's glam time once your ponytail hair is in place! This style is a great way to spice up your everyday ponytail and give your hair something unique and eye-catching for the new year!
#4 Layers With Bounce
Layers that will frame your face
Layers are expected to be abundant in 2022. This low-maintenance cut grows out quickly and works well with all hair textures. To reach Queen B's level, use shoulder-length face-framing layers to add dimension and bounce. Use a large curling iron or our favorite hot rollers to add volume to this look.
#5 Loose Bouncy Curls
Loose curly bangs
Bangs of all shapes and sizes will continue to rule the styling chair. They're a '90s staple that dresses up any haircut and makes your hair look styled even if you just rolled out of bed. Why not enjoy your new year's look with loose curly virgin Brazilian deep wavy hair? Curl it for more bouncy and fluffy curls.
#6 Golden Blonde Hair
Enjoy blonde look with dyed bundles
Golden blonde appears natural and sunkissed, but the best part is that it does not require the regular toning of a cool or neutral tone, making it ideal for someone prone to brassiness. This look may be the best option for you to begin 2022 with a bang of trendy looks. Pull off this look with dyed bundles.
