THE MIXIE
This newcomer on the hair trend block is another twist this year. This hairstyle combines the mullet and the pixie haircut for a fearless new look. A mixie is a bold haircut that is longer in the back, like a mullet, and short like a pixie, in the front, with a slight retro 70’s vibe. Since its inception, the mixie has made its way into the hearts and heads of many of your favourite celebrities. Kristen Stewart, Bella Hadid, Zoë Kravitz, Lisa Rinna, Emma Corrin and Charlize Theron have all sported the look.
THE ITALIAN BOB
It probably won’t surprise you to learn that this cut is the return of one of the most popular decades of yesteryear right now. The 90s are a big influence this season, making a big comeback. We are seeing bobs on celebrities like Zendaya’s, which can be described as the Italian bob. They are usually above the shoulders and below the chin. This haircut also has layers and will give you a lot of body and sexy hair.”
WET-LOOK
The wet hair look is trending these days, as seen on the 2023 runways, red carpets and most recently at the CFDA awards. This sleek style is a great last-minute option for a special event, as it doesn’t involve too many intricate steps or styling prowess.
BOWS
One of the funniest and easiest hairstyles to personalize they’re the bows! Trying it with bow clips or ribbons makes you look cute and delicate while evoking the fresh-cool vibes of springtime. Remember, you can also try it with edgy accents, like a loose braid or smudged black eyeliner, for some harder visual interest.
‘90S LAYERS
The ‘90s are back with a vengeance right now. We love ‘90s haircuts and hairstyles. There’s something so pretty about them! And, one of the worldwide known super-versatile “The Rachel” haircuts is back for this spring of 2023. The chippy face-framing layers of the Rachel hairstyle formed one of the most trendsetting hair looks of the ‘90s and continue to influence the outcome of hair appointments worldwide to this day. However, you should also consider that there are plenty of styles from this ‘90s haircut, from short and seamless layers, medium layers, long layers and angles, chunky layers, long angles, soft curls, layered and curly, short and layered, blow out with layers, and more.
