1. The Supermodel Blowout: Your Ticket to Main Character Energy

It seems there is a resurgence of trending hairstyles from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, and this trending hairstyle is no exception. Remember the effortless glamour of the ’90s supermodels? We’re talking about that voluminous, bouncy, I-woke-up-like-this-but-better hair that seemed to defy gravity. Well, get ready to unleash your inner Naomi Campbell or Cindy Crawford, because the supermodel blowout is back and better than ever. This isn’t just a hairstyle; it’s a statement. It’s for the person who wants to walk into a room and own it.

It’s all about movement and life. It starts with a healthy canvas, which is why we always recommend a trim to remove any split ends that might be holding you back. From there, it’s a careful dance of heat, tension, and the right tools.

Think big, round brushes that create those soft, sweeping curves and give your hair that incredible lift from the roots. The secret to a blowout that lasts isn’t just in the technique; it’s in the products. We use a combination of lightweight styling products and heat protectants that build a foundation for the volume without making your hair feel stiff or crunchy. It’s all about striking the perfect balance between hold and natural flow.

One of the best things about the supermodel blowout is its versatility. You can wear it with a sleek, polished look or pair it with a casual outfit for that high-low fashion vibe. It’s perfect for a big night out, a special event, or even just when you want to feel a little extra glamorous for a Tuesday coffee run. The key is to embrace the volume and let your hair do the talking.

To keep the look going for days, we have a few tricks up our sleeves. Dry shampoo is your best friend for refreshing your roots and giving you a boost on day two or three. A silk pillowcase can also work wonders, preventing friction that can cause your style to flatten overnight. We love helping our clients master this art form, and there’s nothing more satisfying than seeing a client leave the salon with a head full of bouncy, beautiful hair and a smile to match.

This trend celebrates hair in all its glory. It’s about feeling powerful and beautiful in a way that feels timeless yet totally current. So, if you’re tired of the sleek, straight look and craving some drama and movement, the supermodel blowout is calling your name.

2. Sleek and Sharp: The Glass Hair Effect

If the supermodel blowout is all about big energy, then the sleek and sharp look is its cool, sophisticated cousin. Think razor-sharp lines, a blunt finish, and a shine so intense it looks like glass. This trend is for individuals who love a clean, modern aesthetic and aren’t afraid to make a bold statement with their haircut.

This look is all about precision. A perfectly blunt cut is non-negotiable. Whether it’s a chic bob that hits right at the jawline or a long, sleek look that falls past your shoulders, the ends must be sharp and uniform. This is where the skill of your stylist truly shines. A great haircut lays the foundation, but the “glass” part comes from the styling.

Achieving that mirror-like shine is an art form in itself. It starts with incredibly healthy, hydrated hair. This means using moisturizing shampoos and conditioners, and possibly incorporating a deep conditioning treatment into your routine. We love BOB’s Hi-Hydrating shampoo and conditioner. It’s the absolute perfect amount of hydration without weighing down finer hair. When your hair is well-nourished, the cuticle—the outermost layer of your hair—lies flat. This smooth surface is what reflects light so beautifully, giving you that glass-like finish.

Styling this look at home can be a fun ritual. A high-quality flat iron is your best friend, but remember to always, always use a heat protectant spray or serum first. We can’t stress this enough! It’s the shield that protects your hair from damage and keeps it looking glossy, not fried. A flat iron used with a gentle hand can smooth out any kinks and create that flawless, poker-straight finish.

For the final touch, a lightweight shine serum or spray adds that extra layer of gloss and helps tame any stubborn flyaways. We encourage you to try BOB Hi-Hydrating light-weight oil infused with pequi oil and vitamin E. The result is a look that is polished, powerful, and unbelievably chic.

This is the sleekest and sharpest, most classic look of our top 3 trending hairstyles, a testament to the power of a great cut and the beauty of healthy hair. It’s for the minimalist who wants maximum impact. It’s the perfect look for the office, a fancy dinner, or just when you want to feel effortlessly cool. It’s a clean slate that puts the focus on your face and your impeccable style. It’s easy to style and looks fresh all day long!

3. The Side Part Comeback: A Simple Switch, a Fresh Vibe

After years of the center part reigning supreme, there’s a new queen on the throne: the side part. This isn’t just a nostalgic throwback; it’s a modern revival that offers a surprisingly dramatic change without a single snip. It’s the easiest of our trending hairstyles to refresh your look and discover a whole new side of your style (pun intended!).

The side part is so much more than just where you place your hair. It can completely change the way your face is framed, adding a touch of asymmetry that softens angles and creates an illusion of fullness. For those with fine or thinning hair, a deep side part can be a lifesaver, instantly adding volume and lift at the crown that a center part often can’t.

One of the most appealing aspects of this trend is how it revitalizes your hair. Think about it: your hair has likely been falling the same way for years. Switching up your part can make it feel like you have a whole new hairstyle. The deeper the side part, the more dramatic the effect. A subtle part can feel sweet and classic, while a deep part can give you a mysterious, edgy vibe.

The biggest challenge with the side part comeback is often getting your hair to cooperate. If your hair is accustomed to being parted down the middle, it may take a little convincing to stay in place. This is where a little patience and the right products come in. Blow-drying your hair with a round brush in the new direction is key. Start when your hair is damp and really guide it into place. A little root-lifting spray can also help it hold its new position and give you that extra bit of oomph. Over time, your hair will adjust to the new part, and it will become second nature.

This trending hairstyle is all about embracing a fresh perspective. It proves that you don’t need a drastic change to make a big impact. A simple switch can transform your look and give you a boost of confidence. We love showing our clients how a different part of their look can highlight their best features and give them a whole new outlook on their style.

So, are you ready to embrace one of these stunning, trending hairstyles? Whether you’re dreaming of a voluminous blowout, a sharp and sleek cut, or a simple part switch-up, we at BLU Salon in Monrovia are here to make your hair dreams a reality. Come on in, let’s have some fun, and get you ready for 2025!
