TRENDING: HAIR STYLE

- BY ISIOMA USIADE

Experiment with a new haircut or colour in the new year with some of the trendiest hairstyles of the season. With the COVID-19 pandemic still keeping many at home, planning your hairstyle may seem be the furthest thing from your thoughts. However, like death and taxes, dealing with your ‘do is an inevitable task that unfortunat­ely does not come with an automated fix. To remedy those hair days when the clippers look like the best option, check out this chic yet low-maintenanc­e hairstyles doable at-home.

Braids

With many people around the world still under lockdown orders during the global pandemic, sunny holidays by the pool seem like dreams of a distance past. In the new year, Braids are an easy and so pleasant way to forget about hair styling for months, give your hair some rest and protect it from harsh environmen­tal factors

High Pony

ponytails are always chic. Adding flipped ends and a deep side part instantly puts a nostalgic early spin on the classic hairstyle. Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner can be seen rocking a variation of this simple ponytail, both on the streets and on the runway.

Ultra-long

Odds are, unless you live with a hairdresse­r or feel confident in your DIY shearing skills, you’ve been forced to grow your hair out this year. Embrace those new long locks by diving head first into the look with some new extensions for an added dash of glamour.

Above-theshoulde­r Bob

The cropped cut is a chic, low-maintenanc­e style that frames the face with its not-quite-shoulderle­ngth look. The versatile ‘do can be shaped with gentle waves or pin straight for a dramatic effect.
