In the ever-evolving world of hair and beauty, social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest all have the ability to create trending looks that are accessible to millions. From sleek bobs to modern mullets, the latest viral hairstyles are taking over our feeds and inspiring haircare professionals globally.
That’s why in today’s blog, we’re taking a look at some of the most viral hair trends, that you can recreate on your clients. As distributors of professional salon supplies, we wanted to break down how you can perfect these trending hairstyles in your salon, using the highest quality products and tools.
Over the years we’ve seen bobs fade in and out of being trendy, and guess what? They’re trending once again. Since the last time they were trending, bobs have had a makeover. It’s all about sleek styling and perfect lines when it comes to creating the perfect trending bob, and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. For an editorial ‘wet-look’, use the MANDA Styling Cream on dry hair to create the illusion of soaking wet hair. Alternatively, make your bobs red-carpet-ready by using the NINE YARDS Easy Life Heat Protection Spray, followed by a classic Hollywood blowout.
There are endless possibilities when it comes to styling a bob, whether you want to achieve short beachy waves or a simple half-up half-down style, it’s a versatile cut that many people are now opting for. Even though it can be daunting to pull off a bob that your client will be pleased with, using the right tools and techniques can leave them with a brand new look that they’ll want to shout about.
Another hair trend that we see coming in and out of the fashion limelight, is the fringe. Fringes are always going to have their moment, and right now it’s the draped fringe that’s having its moment. This soft and effortless fringe is all about adding volume and movement around the face, especially when paired with a bouncy blowout.
Draped fringes can be paired with almost any haircut, from long layers to short bobs, and can be styled for straight, wavy, and curly hair types. The key to perfecting the draped fringe lies in the styling, and that’s why the AENO HD1 is a great tool to have on hand when your client requests this style. It offers precise styling with the LED indication, and can dry the hair in minutes with it’s ultra-powerful technology. Simply set the fringe with the EVERYGREEN 10 Strong Hold Hairspray to ensure it stays intact for as long as possible, and you’re good to go.
When it comes to men’s hair, the modern mullet is the ultimate trending style that has taken over social media in the last few months. The popular 80s hairstyle has made a comeback and is being sported by several A-List celebrities. This can be a hard look to achieve, and the key is to give it that modern touch, so it doesn’t look too outdated. One way to achieve this is using a low fade on the side, and just having a little extra length at the back as opposed to the classic tail.
This style works well with curly or wavy hair, giving it that extra volume that mullets benefit from. To help your clients achieve the modern mullet look, the NINE YARDS Hands-On Texturizing Spray works wonders when it comes to adding some texture to the hair. For those curly modern mullets, the EVERYGREEN Curly Shampoo and Conditioner will help to define the curls and avoid the look of frizzy hair.
We can well and truly say that the slicked-back bun is one of the most popular trends at the moment, not only because of its sophisticated appearance, but also because of its easy styling capabilities. It’s just about having the right products for this style, to ensure the hair stays sleek all day long, and of course the right setting spray to avoid unwanted flyaways or frizz.
For clients that have thick or voluminous hair, having a great bristle brush is going to make all the difference when it comes to pulling all the hair back into a bun style. The REGINCOS e.Cork Black Bristle brush is made from natural materials and designed to be comfortable for even the tightest grip, making it ideal for creating many different styles. The O&M Style Guru is an exceptional styling companion that can help you to achieve healthy-looking hair in your slicked-back styles. Simply add to damp hair, comb through, and seal the bun in place using a hairdryer.
