Winter air can make hair dry and staticky. To combat this and maintain healthy strands, be sure to moisturize frequently. Luckily, this season brings some fresh new haircut options – whether curtain bangs or soft layers, there’s sure to be something perfect.
Pixie Cuts
Opt for the classic pixie cut when looking for an effortless, low-maintenance style to upgrade your look instantly. This version features short side and back hair length with longer top layers providing volume and dimension, making this style suitable for side bangs or messy fringes. Pixie cuts fashioned with icy blonde locks project an elegant aura. Use some styling product to form soft waves around your face and emphasize its best features. While traditionally associated with gendered rebellion, pixie cuts have become an elegant style for women of all ages. While it still makes an eye-catching statement, today, it can also feature angles and wisps, spikes, undercuts, and various lengths – Em Rata, Kris Jenner, and Toni Braxton are among its many fans!
Side Parts
Each topic in beauty and fashion generates less discussion than that surrounding middle parts versus side parts. While the central parts can look stunning on some people, they may highlight features you would rather hide away. A side part is another way of showing more of your face and is ideal for anyone wanting to balance their elements or add mystery and intrigue to their look. No matter your style choice – from dramatic deep side parts to something simpler – this hairstyle is ideal for winter as it can easily accommodate almost every look imaginable.

Honey Brown Hair
Honey brown hair can add warmth and dimension to their locks without bleaching them, pairing perfectly with various skin tones and styles. If you want a subtle way of lightening up without going blonder altogether, talk to your stylist about adding honey highlights or lowlights using balayage techniques. If your natural curly or wavy locks are unruly and unruly, consider asking your stylist about a cascade haircut that’s playful yet edgy. Hawkins states that Afro-textured women, in particular, often opt for these trendy cuts, specifically those who wish to leave behind the more conventional round or symmetrical shapes of previous decades. When adding layers to this new style, be sure to use plenty of face-framing layers so your new cut stands out more from others; remember to hydrate using something like HOURS Full-Time Styling Cream or moisturizing spray to keep your locks healthy through cold weather conditions!
Long Layers
Long layers are an excellent option for winter styling. According to Clayton Hawkins, stylist, and Tangle Teezer Ambassador, they add movement and texture while not making your locks too thin – plus only need trimming 2-3 times annually! For those with shorter locks, a side-swept bob is an enduring classic that works year-round. The simple yet chic style looks great when worn casually with clothing such as jeans and a hoodie. A low or high ponytail is another must-try hairstyle this winter. Its versatility suits almost all hair types, from sleek straight locks to voluminous coils. To add something different, try braiding or partially braiding your ponytail for an eye-catching finish, or add texture with something like HOURS Well Traveled Tousle and Shine Spray for a volume boost.
