Trending hairstyle ideas from Instagram and L.A that you're going to want to copy ASAP
2019 has already served a host of hair moments. Texture combinations made waves backstage at the AW19 shows, fluffy layers and curtain fringes have cemented retro hair as an enduring trend, bobs are shorter and blunter than ever, and and as for creativity - if a hair do isn't adorned with a clip, bow or band, *quite frankly* you're behind the times.
Okay, so accessories aren't your vibe. We get it - you're not quite ready to revisit headbands after years of enduring that end-of-day ache behind the ears. Luckily, there are plenty of other cutting-edge styles you can get to grips with.
Whether you have lusciously long locks or stylishly short hair in a bob or pixie cut, get ready for some serious inspiration overload...

Delicate updosHow chic is this low bun updo created by GLAMOUR columnist Jen Atkin? We love the lose, wavy tendrils left free in front of Kendall's ears, giving it a softer 'wallflower' vibe, rather than the severity of a slicked back 'do.

Mix and match hair clips
is feeding our slide and hair clip addiction by mixing and matching all different styles and sizes. This look is perfect for extending a second or third-day blow-dry.

Triple buns
This triple threat bun is a great updo option for those with short to medium hair who struggle to secure all their layers in the one top knot. This way, the stragglers are secured at the nape of the neck in a bun of their own. We love how combined the style with our love for hair clips to create this masterpiece.

Curtain fringes
A year ago, the request for a low ponytail and curtain fringe would have been met with a raised eyebrow. Today, we can’t imagine a better combo. Just take a look at Camilla Cabello at this year’s Grammy Awards.

Wet-look hair
Wet-look hair is back, but this time it’s restricted to the roots and offset with soft, tousled waves. To encourage texture, introduce a salt spray through the lengths and scrunch.

Texture and volume
If you thought choosing to chop means compromising on hair creativity, think again. Showcasing clips, texture, volume and a slick centre parting, Lucy Boynton didn’t hold back at this year’s BAFTAs, and her originality paid off.

The 'Dua Lipa' bob
Nathan Telford, Senior Stylist at Hare & Bone, says Dua Lipa's bob will be THE haircut of the season. Short hair will still be very much 'in' for 2019, particularly during the colder months.
-
Shag haircuts
Low-key, effortless and just-so-cool, the 'shag haircut' is the chop du jour. Chloë Grace Moretz is leading the trend and all it requires is a quick trim and a volume-boosting, thickening and beach wave-building, texture spray.

Bold bows
If you only buy one item for the upcoming season, make it a bow. It can be bold, neutral, oversized or mini - whatever it may be, just make sure you've got one to hand - and in hair. Just. So. Pretty.

Baby fringes
Tempted to experiment with a fringe but not sure how to pull it off without resembling your mum in the 80s? We feel ya. That's why we're loving this fresh new take on the classic fringe: the baby fringe. Tempted to grab the scissors?

Oversized braids
We're almost at the end of fashion month, and it's fair to say that this season hair was kept simple on the catwalks - we've seen a lot of side partings, tousled waves and low ponys. But at the Simone Rocha show oversized braids took centre stage, tied with a black velvet ribbon, the romantic 'do is perfect for the colder months.
