Autumn’s heading our way and while it’s set to get colder, the bonus is, the season offers up some truly dreamy autumn haircut trends. So, what are we imagining we’ll be rocking alongside our knee boots, jeans and roll necks?
Lash-skimming fringes, soft layers and slinky bobs are all on the menu for this season’s major hair trends. The question is, which autumn haircut will you choose? We asked leading hair stylists for their predictions.
The grungy midi
Grunge-girl hair has been growing its fan base for a few seasons, but the 2023 version is a little more glam. The grungy midi is is a progression of the shag. “It’s a lot more wearable as it incorporates the roundness and layering from the ‘90s Rachel cut,” says Dom Seeley, International Creative Director at ColorWow. “It’s a shorter version that you can do to hop on the trend – think: Jenna Ortega. It’s great as it works on pretty much the majority of hair types. but it’s also perfect if your hair lacks volume and movement as it really encourages texture,” says Dom.

The Italian bob
Also having a mini glow-up, is this season’s “It Bob” haircut, which is looking a little sleeker. Bobs are sticking around,” confirms Dom. “Hailey Bieber and Zendaya are really at the forefront,” he says. The beauty is, they offer versatility, be it “cool girl, grungy or more on the glam voluminous shiny side of the bob,” says Dom. Classics like the French bob are still in style, “but the Italian version of the bob has really come into its own. Zendaya is a perfect example of how the Italian bob can be worn. Waves, volume and curl give real sex appeal to a short crop and make it more wearable and classic. Think of this as a progression on from ’90s supermodel but for short hair. It’s chunky, rounded and full bodied,” Dom explains.
