Fall Haircut Trends For All Lengths

Fall Haircut Trends For All Lengths

This season you need to ask yourself, "Am I going to look good with that haircut?" Check out his tips for what's sexy now, without sacrificing the most flattering cut for your face shape, personality, and lifestyle. Here is Hairstylist Moulay Yacoubi of the Pierre Michel Salon in NYC take of what's happening this Fall.

What's Hot Now — (Hint: It's Not Dallas) "Inspiration is coming from the '80s," says Yacoubi. "We saw that from a lot of the big designers," he adds. But don't fret. It doesn't mean we're going back to the era of larger-than-life Dallas-style hair, which he despises, it means we'll be seeing a little extra spice when it comes to cuts. "It’s just a little flair of those hairstyles that we had in the past — in the '80s — but with more finish, a more modern look, and more sexiness."

Think Victoria Beckham. . . "The short cuts are very happening, like a bobbish look," he says.

A Shorter Take Or, you could also opt for the pixie version Victoria wore earlier this year, which had a nice funky edge — a look Yacoubi admires.

You Can't Go Wrong With Rihanna For a punky element, Yacoubi suggests Rihanna's asymmetrical style.

For a Variation of the Look Lift it up with some volume in the back and a slight wave in the front.

Short and Sassy If you've got a smaller head, "go for short, and spiky like the old Sharon Stone look," he said.

Afraid of the short? If you don't want to make the commitment to shorn locks just yet, "I would definitely suggest that you start with a wig for short hair," Yacoubi says. Here are some options: Notice 2 Human Hair Wig ($52 US); Isabella Wig ($55 US); or Sage Wig ($59 US).

For Medium-Length Hair "The Kate Moss look is very happening," he says. "I love that longish bob look — kind of shoulder-length. It's between short and shoulder length. It gives the hair a lot of movement."

For Long Hair "For someone with long hair, keep it more natural," Yacoubi explains. "For example, you can have long hair with a lot of layers, but softer — not too poufy, and not a lot of volume."

In Case You Wondered. . . Bangs are still happening.

Yacoubi's Favorite "My favorite haircut now is the Madonna look," says Yacoubi. "It’s shoulder length, but she has the bangs swept to the side. It’s very modern."

Don't Go Overboard "I like sexy. I like natural. I don't like a lot of product," he advises. "You want the hair to have some finish, of course. I just don't want it to be overdone," he added. The bottom line? Don't try too hard.

Modern Woman Recommends
I am in no way a fan of much from the 80's but I do have my thoughts about the trends for this Fall season. If you are wanting to go with something that is 'In' that it's always good to consult a very experienced hair stylist to see what will work for your needs, your face and your lifestyle. I have worn wigs and extentions in the past and recommend them to anyone who is not willing to part with their own hair or want to switch it up once in awhile. I am loving Rihanna's dos but I personally probably wouldn't be able to rock the look. Victoria is always looking sharp and that's because the woman knows what works for 'HER'. It is only hair but since hair is one of the most important features we have, always get what will work for 'YOU'.

I know I am really feeling the Ali Wig ($34 US) if I was going to rock the really short look. Tell us what you think!
