As summer bids its farewell and autumn graces us with a shift of colors, you may be considering a new hairstyle or color to accompany the change in season. Well, the fall 2024 hair trends have great news for you—classic styles and cuts are making a valuable comeback! However, do not see this as a radical makeover but rather an easy refreshing makeover.
Bob haircuts continue to dominate as favorites regardless of the season—with options ranging from short bobs to lobs (longer bob). These haircuts cater to all face shapes and hair textures, offering versatility that is further elevated with fun accessories or by adding trendy layers. Even bangs are making a significant comeback and are expected to stay trending throughout autumn.
Looking for bolder changes? Celebrity hairstylist Jenny Cho champions trying out various styles of fringe like short blunt sides or wispy layers. She recommends pairing it with loose waves enhanced using styling products like the FEKKAI Clean Stylers Glossing Cream+ for extra shine and definition.
Barber shops will remain busy thanks to popular bob hairstyles that stand resilient through each season. As Mara Roszak, celebrity hairstylist and founder of RŌZ explains, “Bobs are versatile and there is truly a style for all hair textures.” Fall presents a perfect opportunity to bid farewell to summer-damaged ends and welcome chic fresh hairstyles ready for the new season. Good hair care regimen like RŌZ Foundation Mask is key in keeping the bob strong, healthy and swinging.
Hairstyle trends also veer into protective styles territory this autumn. Lacy Redway suggests goddess braids will still be very much en vogue during this period. They can even be styled into high ponytails for glammed looks.
The coming months invite you to experiment with retro styles—60s hairstyles inspire today’s sleek high ponies or elaborate beehive updos for dramatic flair. Think Emmy Rossum’s voluminous high ponytail or Cho’s recommended polished updos as your perfect go-to for that fabulous outing or a sweet apple picking trip.
Count on layers and waves for added volume and bounce. A shag cut combined with body-building sprays promises effortless coolness, while low-maintenance goddess braids extend their dominance from summer into fall.
Hair accessories play an essential role this fall. Classic Blair Waldorf-inspired headbands, big bows, or the stylish Lelet Pony Cuff will take center stage in hair trends, offering you the chance to express your personal style or switch up your hairstyles anytime.
Natural textures and curls get celebrated during this season too with more clients embracing their curls just like Tracee Ellis Ross’s voluminous collarbone-length fro.
Finally, don’t dismiss the classic blonde tone! Experts predict a warm shade of blonde to be the hottest color trend. Consultation with your colorist can yield just the right tone matching your skin best—a luxuriously cozy shade of honey blonde, like Sabrina Carpenter sports, could be in order.
Remember though, whether you are breathing new life into an existing cut at the hair salon or trying out different treatments at a day spa or med spa to rejuvenate your skin before entering autumn, always choose what fits you most comfortably. These trends set the stage for endless creativity—explore until you find what resonates with your style authentically. Making these self-care rituals part of our lifestyle not only boosts our outer appearance but also nurtures our inner confidence—a beauty checklist that never goes out of style.
