1. Bob Up: 

Chin-length bobs have always exuded style, reminiscent of iconic looks like Twiggy’s in The Boy Friend (1972). This classic cut is gaining popularity as many are opting for a chic chop to the chin. According to Macedo, it’s effortlessly timeless and always on-trend. It’s also low-maintenance—just a bit of heat and product, and you’re set. Plus, a quick spritz of dry shampoo keeps it fresh and lively between washes.

2. Platinum Blonde: 

High-maintenance styles are still in demand, especially for those drawn to the boldness of bleached hair. Celebrities like Beyoncé and Rihanna are leading the charge, proving that going blonde remains popular. It’s not just platinum that’s trending—warm shades like honey and golden blonde are also on the rise. For those experimenting with bleach, using bond-strengthening products is crucial to minimize and repair any potential damage along the way.

3. Rebellious Pixie:

 Harry Josh, a renowned celebrity hairstylist and creator of Harry Josh Pro Tools, anticipates a surge in bold, rebellious cuts, like the dramatic style often seen on Florence Pugh, as the trend of long, wavy hair starts to fade. This edgy look is perfect for those ready to make a significant change. Amy Abramite, the creative director at Maxine Salon in Chicago, suggests regular salon visits every four weeks for upkeep. The style is low maintenance, requiring minimal daily effort—just some wax to create a tousled, matte finish.

4. Purely Natural:

If you’re tired of frequent salon visits and want to give your hair a rest, 2024 is your year. Celebrity hairstylist Cody Renegar predicts a shift towards embracing natural hair color and texture. “Classic looks with a personal twist will dominate,” he says, emphasizing the trend of returning to one’s roots—literally. As more people embrace their natural texture, stylist Kelly Macedo highlights the importance of a great haircut and minimal product for easy, beautiful air-drying. It’s all about low-maintenance, authentic beauty this year.
