As autumn approaches, many are eager to refresh their look with a new haircut. Instead of opting for a routine trim, consider embracing the latest trending hairstyles. To guide us through the season’s most stylish cuts and looks, I reached out to renowned LA hairstylist Bryce Scarlett. Here are his top recommendations for fall hairstyles that anyone can pull off.
Curtain Bangs
Daisy Edgar-Jones exemplifies the charm of curtain bangs, a style that Bryce Scarlett recommends for this fall. To achieve this look, start by trimming the bangs to a length that lightly grazes the eyebrows. Use a razor or texturizing shears to add wispy layers for a soft, textured finish. Scarlett advises blow-drying the bangs with the Drybar Full Pint Medium Round Ceramic Brush to create volume and shape. To keep the bangs from falling flat, finish with Drybar Triple Sec 3-in-1 Finishing Spray. This style adds a playful touch to your autumn look.
Clavi Cut
Bryce Scarlett praises the Clavi Cut for its versatility and flattering nature for various face shapes. For individuals with round faces, Scarlett suggests blending the Clavi Cut with a ‘Bubble Bob’ style to enhance facial features. Conversely, for those with longer, narrower faces, a classic Clavi Cut with face-framing layers that hit the collarbone can provide a balanced look. To maintain salon-fresh hair daily, Scarlett recommends using a thickening shampoo and conditioner, such as Drybar’s Big Brew Thickening & Lifting Shampoo and Conditioner. Follow up with Drybar’s Hot Toddy Heat Protectant Mist and finish with dry shampoo for volume and hair oil for shine.
Lob
The lob, or long bob, shifts the weight of your hair from the back to the front, offering a sophisticated yet practical style. Scarlett describes this cut as featuring face-framing layers that extend to the collarbone, with the back strands resting on the neck. This versatile hairstyle can be styled in various ways, including a ponytail or a slick back bun, depending on personal preference and lifestyle.
Full Glamour Waves
For a touch of classic Hollywood elegance, full glamour waves are a must-try this fall. Bryce Scarlett suggests opting for rich, voluminous curls that exude timeless beauty. To achieve this look, Scarlett advises teasing the hair to enhance volume. Don’t shy away from creating big, dramatic waves, as they can always be toned down later. This style is perfect for evening outings or a chic brunch.
Sleek Bob
Hailey Bieber’s sleek bob is a standout style for fall. This chic cut features smooth waves that add a playful bounce, making it a popular choice for the season. Bryce Scarlett’s sleek bob is not only stylish but also versatile, promising to be a favorite among those looking to refresh their look this autumn.
Clean Side-Swept Bangs
Another trend to watch this fall is the clean side-swept bangs, as styled on Daisy Edgar-Jones by Bryce Scarlett. This look combines a classic ponytail with simple, side-swept curtain bangs. While messy curtain bangs have their place in bohemian styles, the side-swept version offers a more refined appearance. This understated yet elegant style is perfect for those who want to make a sophisticated statement.
