The *Non-Basic* Hairstyles To Try For A Fresh Makeover

Enough with the haircut you've had since you were in high school. Ahead, we bring a list of hairstyles you can try if you want to try something new. 

After spending the past couple of years staying in and going with *safe* hairstyle choices, we've finally entered an era where people are just game to try risks. From dimensional cuts to daring fringes, NOW is the time for major hair makeovers. But of course, since life is best balanced, we believe that classic hairstyles and natural beauty will remain to be seen, but only with modern tweaks. Bobs, bangs, layers—the top-tier trio will still be around.

Ahead, we present the hottest haircuts you'll ask for this year.

The Hottest Hair Trends You Should Try This Year

1. Au naturel

   Yep, the hair's natural texture will be all the rage! Celebs like Yassi Pressman and Kate Valdez have been posting their cute selfies featuring their lovely curls.

2. Effortless hair

   Taking from the natural texture trend, here's one for ladies with straight hair. Now is the time to embrace your natural hair bends and flyaways. It's okay not to have perfect tresses—the messier, the better.

3. Drastic haircuts

   Pinterest revealed that Gen Z peeps are obsessed with complex and dimensional haircuts like octopus cuts, mullets, and pixie cuts. We kinda saw this coming when the wolf cut became such a huge hit in 2021.

4. Bob

   Of course, this classic haircut will never go out of style. Ask for an a-bob if you've got a round face, a blunt bob for the cool-girl aesthetic, and a layered bob for a timeless look.

5. Medium-length hair with bangs

   Awkward length who? Those grown-out bobs can be updated with some layers and a full fringe. A classic hairstyle like this will never fail to turn heads.

6. Boy bob

   A badass, cool-girl version of the bob, the boy bob is snipped right above the chin. It can be blunt or layered, depending on your face shape and hair texture.

7. Redheads

   We're kind of biased here: We came up with this brave prediction because of Miss Taylor Swift's look in the short film of the "All Too Well 10-Minute Version." Copper, ginger, warm red hues will be super popular in 2022 and still continues to be a top choice for hair color.

8. Pastel hues

   If we have revenge dressing in fashion, we've got standout colors for the hair. Delicate pastel shades will be the riskiest hair makeover Pinays will be tempted to try in 2022. "Very Peri" hair sounds like a good idea.
