As the seasons go by, so do the hair styles. And while there are some styles that will always be ‘in,’ like beach waves, loose up-do’s, the messy lob, and voluminous cuts, sometimes a girl just wants to shake things up. It can be hard to keep up with all the latest trends, but luckily, we’ve done all the work for you so you don’t have to.
If you’re ready to try something new, you’ve got to consider these 5 styles that are having their moment right now: the highlight, the chop, warm caramel/copper hues, fringe, and the bob. Below, we break down the pros to these styles, how to describe them to your stylist, and how to rock them.
Highlights. While there’s many techniques of highlighting hair to add dimension, this trend is centered around deliberate and in your face (literally) color. Highlights in Fall 2017 are more centered around the face, in a technique known as face framing. Bonus: this trend leaves more of your natural hair color which means less damage.
The chop. This trend requires a love of geometric shapes. These cuts are blunt and graphic. They can range in lengths and compliment your face’s features in a unique way. Ask your stylist about the best shape and length for your face. Bonus: this trend works for bangs too.
Warm hues. Warm caramel, blonde, and copper tones always make an appearance come Fall time. And we’re not complaining. This trend has easy maintenance, and an easy grow out, meaning less work for you. It can give you a sun-kissed look while being festive for the changing seasons. Make sure your stylist picks a color complimentary to your skin tone.
Fringe. Fringe or curtain fringe is having a big moment right now. This trend can be applied to bangs or to face framing. This look is loose, relaxed, and chic. The bangs blend perfectly into your layers so you can have bangs without the big commitment. This trend is tailored perfect to your hair’s unique texture.
The bob. While this isn’t a ‘new’ trend, its one that we just can’t get enough of. This cut is flexible and universal; it can be molded to your face shape, hair texture, and desired length. It’s the perfect cut you just can’t go wrong with this season.

The benefits of dry shampoo
Have you heard about dry shampoo? Dry shampoo is a hair-care product that allows you to stretch the time in between hair washing sessions.
How does it work?
Dry shampoo works by absorbing excess oils in your hair. It comes in the form of power or sprays which utilize brand-specific oil-absorbing, cleansing components. It essentially ‘washes’ your hair without any water, hence the name ‘dry shampoo.’
Why is this helpful?
Too much washing contributes to dryness and dullness in your hair. This is because washing hair strips the hair of its natural oils which add the much-needed shine and nutrients your hair craves.
Many factors play a role in how often you should wash your hair, such as sweat, curliness, fineness, and genetics, which determine how much oil your hair secretes and how fast it travels down your hair shaft. Experts suggest washing your hair no more than 3-4 times per week, less if you’re able.
Added benefits
In addition to allowing you to lower the amount of times you need to wash your hair per week, dry shampoo is a great styling product.
Dry shampoo adds texture to your hair, making it easier to style and set your look. Additionally, it adds volume, allowing you to achieve the looks you desire.
Dry shampoo comes in two main forms: the powder and the spray. The powders work great at absorbing oils. The sprays work great at adding volume and setting styles, while also drying out areas that over-saturated with oil.
These products typically contain vitamins and nutrients that are beneficial to your hair. And an added bonus – they smell nice too. Dry shampoo is a smart hair washing and styling alternative, that saves you time and money. Try it out today and let us know how it works for you!
