Best Winter Hairstyles Perfect for Even the Coldest Days

Best Winter Hairstyles Perfect for Even the Coldest Days

Summer is officially over. Now that temperatures have dropped, we're ready to start thinking about all the fun winter activities we have to look forward to: snow days, holiday parties, peppermint everything, TV show premieres, and so much more! But winter can also bring some seriously harsh weather. We all know about braving the elements with heavy coats and cozy socks, but you also need a chic winter hairstyle that can stay looking great through it all, no matter how grey and dreary the weather.

We're taking inspiration from some of our favorite celebrities, ranging from beautiful updos and beach waves to headbands and glitter looks that are easy to recreate at home. Good to know: You may need a curling iron, hair dryer, or flat iron to achieve some of the below looks. And if you're not quite ready to think about winter, check out fall hairstyle trends. Start planning your hair look for the holidays and every other day with these trendy winter hairstyles:

Tousled Bob

Just in time for season 4 of This is Us, loosen up your locks and channel Mandy Moore's wavy bob. Use a 1" curling wand to get a uniform curl pattern, then once the style has cooled off, run your fingers through your hair to get this relaxed look.

Elegant Top Knot

Gabrielle Union knows that end-of-the-year parties are all about the glitz and glam — after all, it's time to celebrate! A chic top knot is a great hairdo when you don't have a ton of time to curl or straighten your tresses.

Long, Glossy Locks

No, you don't need to splurge on a professional blowout to replicate Jessica Alba's glamorous curls. All you need is a steady hand and a large round brush, a hair dryer brush or a 2" curling iron.

The 2019 Winter Hair Trends You Need To Try Before The Year Ends

The 2019 Winter Hair Trends You Need To Try Before The Year Ends

If summer hair is defined by sun-streaked highlights, shine, and mermaid-y strands—the epitome of strength and health—then winter tresses can feel like the complete opposite: dull and drab. It’s hard to imagine anything else when the weather outside looks as dreary as you feel. But Dominick Serna, hairstylist at Chris McMillian Salon and Unite ambassador, says there are ways to remedy—if not outright prevent—the damaging effects of moisture-zapping weather.

The easiest solution is to swap out your regular shampoo and conditioner for ones formulated with super hydrating, deep-conditioning ingredients (shea butter, vitamin E, and argan oil are a few examples). Or, if anything, Serna recommends shampooing less to encourage producing natural oils. Above all, the most prominent way to freshen up tired strands is to adopt one of the below buzziest cuts of winter.

The Shag

A lot of people who have been wearing very simple styles are bored with their one-length bob. They’re looking for a change; they want more layers, something funky, something edgy—which is the shag,” Serna says. “A shag has tons of short layers at the crown and sides, which creates a lot of volume.”

But, to modernize the popular ‘90s style, Serna says to avoid blow-drying it unless you have straight hair. Instead, use curl creams (his favorites are this curl leave-in and styling cream) for a cooler, more piecey look. “The cool thing about shags with curly hair is that it gives a lot of volume—you can wake up and go,” Serna says.

Mid-length With Soft Layers

Most people cut their hair off during the summer. By winter, it’s usually grown into a mid-length long bob and at that point, you’ll want to add shape to it,” he says. “Cutting soft layers into it will give it shape and some life, so it doesn’t look so blah. Keeping the ends blunt can feel heavy, so I like the ends to be softer and give the look face-framing layers to open it up.”

Soft Blunt Bob

Similar to the softly layered mid-length style, a soft blunt bob takes out the heaviness from a super-sharp line, which can be achieved by cutting into it (when you snip vertically versus straight across). “And it will grow out nice and not into a heavy, bulky hair cut,” Serna says.
