Hair Trends: A Look Back at the First Month of the New Decade

Feb 3, 2020 11:37:00 AM | Hair Extensions, Hair Trends

Every decade has its defining hairstyles. The ‘60s had the bouffant, the beehive and big teased hair; the ‘70s had disco hair, centre-parts and Farrah Fawcett waves and the ‘80s had the perms, side ponies and mullets. In the ‘90s, who can forget “The Rachel”? The cut made famous by Jennifer Aniston on Friends was everywhere. When we entered the 2000s, we all loved flipped-out ends, side bangs and surfer girl curls inspired by the stars of hit shows like The OC. And then came the 2010s; the decade of balayage, the long bob and the high pony, and when hair extensions gained mass popularity. Perfect healthy, long waves were trending consistently.

 

 

What will be the defining hair trends and moments of the 2020s? Expert stylists predict natural, yet bold, will be the theme of the next 10 years; natural highlights, natural textures and bold accessories and styles. We suppose we’ll have to wait and see but based on what we saw in the first month of 2020, it’s going to be good! Have a look at some of our favourite hair moments of the first month of the new decade. What trends do you think will leave their legacy on the 2020s?

Middle-parted, medium-length haircuts will be all the rage in 2020, and Margot Robbie’s red-carpet look at the Golden Globes might be the reason why. Her collar bone length hair was worn center-parted in surfer girl waves. Combined with her dark roots, the look was effortlessly stylish.
