1. HAIRCUTS
Layered cutting
This style is suitable if you would like to update your haircut, without reducing its length too much. It adds more volume by giving movement to your strands. Bangs (straight or side-swept) also look pretty cool with this style. Layers in curly hair help contain the locks without losing its volume. Also, short cuts can be reinvented by creating layers.
Cut Blunt Cut
Straight cuts have been out of style for some time now. However there might be a huge comeback in 2018, since smooth strands will also become more popular the next year. The use of a side tufted hairstyle – which traces all the way back to the 90’s - will also be in store next year. Its minimalist vibe adds plentiful elegance to any look. Along with some extra texture with tresses, or even a proper marine water finishing, will yield a great, hot effect. In case your have curly hair strands, you can still opt for a blunt cut, however be prepared to have a lot of volume going on at your hair ends.
Short Bob Cut
Whenever the name of a cut is followed by the word 'bob' it refers to a short hair cut above the shoulders. Short bobs will guarantee a fresh and modern look. It represents an unbeatable and fierce combination as it adds a lateral, elongated fringe. This style looks interesting for both plain hair and curly strands. It also works well with or without volume.
Long Asymmetrical Bob Cut
The long bob has been one of the most popular cuts in salons worldwide, and it can be applied both to straight and smooth hair. It will obtain an updated look in 2018 – and rely on asymmetry! Feel free to combine it with textures and layers. Cuts with longer ends at the front that have peaked layers will also be in fashion. Besides, if you have smooth tresses a good finisher will do the trick. This doesn’t mean that flat bob cuts have completely lost their popularity, but prominent asymmetry will make you crave for this look, especially the Chanel inspired versions that have a long bang only on one side.
