MEN’S AUTUMN/WINTER HAIR TRENDS

Bleached Up 

Bleached blonde and platinum hair are taking center stage this autumn/winter. It’s a bold look perfect for men who like to make a statement and want to embody a cool, edgy aesthetic. That said, platinum hair does require maintenance. If you’re going for this hue, be sure to have a solid at home hair care routine to keep the colour looking bright, brass-free, and healthy. I particularly love a platinum tone paired with a short cut for a fresh, modern vibe.

If you’re looking to add a touch of fun and individuality through colour, metallic shades are in this season. Think electric blues and iridescent greens – these hues work beautifully on both blonde and brunette bases. Strategically placed colour blocked panels can really elevate your look, adding a quirky, eye-catching twist to your style.

Undercuts are having a major moment this year, and the disconnected undercut is set to be especially popular during the colder months. This style features longer hair on top and much shorter sides and back, with a sharp, distinct contrast between the two lengths. Unlike blended undercuts, this version is all about bold separation. It pairs perfectly with sleek, slicked-back styling for a modern, sophisticated finish.

Longer styles are all the rage this season, with many men embracing a more indie inspired look. Ask your men’s hairdresser/barber to add layers to give your length more movement and texture. To style, use a texturising spray such as a sea salt spray to add grit and dimension while keeping the look effortlessly cool.

For those who love a sophisticated hair look, pompadours and quiffs aren’t going anywhere. These both provide height and volume and are often paired with sleek styling for a more polished finish. A pompadour can also be paired with a side parting for a further sophisticated finish and added flair. For men with thinning hair this style can also add the illusion of volume. Pomades and waxes are great for both the pompadour and quiff to provide hold and retain shape of both looks.
