What is the trendiest haircut this year? Rating of the best haircuts of the year according to stylists. Which one will suit your hair type?
On the eve of summer, many people want to shake up, change their image and freshen up their hair. And here women often start "pangs of choice." What haircut to choose to highlight the advantages and hide the imperfections of the face? So that it doesn't take long to style and at the same time looks neat and modern? This year, the trend is on light negligence, maximum naturalness and a minimum of styling products. The haircut should be "loose" and not sit on the head like a varnished helmet. Therefore, when choosing, it is necessary to take into account not only the shape of the face, but the type of hair. In the ranking of the most fashionable haircuts of 2021, there are options for every woman. Read and choose what suits you
1st place: wolf cut

In the first place this year is a very bold, catchy haircut called the wolf cut. She is currently at the peak of popularity among girls and women in Japan and South Korea. However, in fact, there is nothing particularly new in it. Stylists point out that this is a "modernized" version of the mullet haircut, which was very fashionable in the 70s and 80s of the last century. So it is quite probable that our mothers and grandmothers had their hair cut like a she-wolf.
The main difference between this haircut is sharply asymmetrical strands of different lengths. As a rule, they are short at the crown and elongated at the back of the head and neck. However, there is a "she-wolf" option for long hair: in this case, the strands are cut starting from the chin area. The shortened version of this haircut looks quite aggressive and outwardly resembles an angry wolf with hair sticking out from different sides. Such an image without special long-term styling can be created by the owner of thick and even hair. Long wolf cut is suitable for women with thick but fine hair. In this case, the haircut will be a bit like a cascade, but with more expressive and sharp changes in length.
Runner-up: pixie

Pixie haircut has not lost its position in the ranking of fashionable haircuts for several years now. And all thanks to its versatility. This is a short haircut with many variations, ranging from the "extreme" pixie with a hair length of 2-3 centimeters and ending with elongated options, which, if necessary, can be assembled into a miniature tail.
The main difference between a pixie haircut in any version is short hair at the back and at the temples and elongated strands at the crown and front. Such accents help a woman not look like a boy even with the shortest haircut. However, keep in mind that the "extreme" pixie looks good on obedient straight hair of medium thickness and is suitable for an oval face. Also, a cropped pixie works well for women with a triangular face, if you leave bangs at the same time. But for chubby ladies and women with thin unruly hair, it is better to give preference to an elongated pixie with hair volume on top and asymmetrical bangs. The image will be sloppy, and visually "pull" the face down.
Third place: cascade

A cascade is a haircut that will always be in trend. With the right technique, it is ideal for all hair lengths and types. Thick hair can be thinned out neatly and delicately with the help of a cascade, but such a graduated haircut will add volume and lightness to thin hair. With straight hair, it gives more liveliness to the hairstyle. However, at the same time, the owners of naughty curly hair are very fond of him: a good master can cut the curls so that each strand will lie in the right direction by itself.
This haircut has a variety of techniques. Therefore, when choosing, keep in mind that this year a "ragged" cascade with asymmetric transitions is no longer in vogue. If you want to give your look more bold decisiveness, opt for the wolf cut. As for the cascade, soft lines and smooth transitions are in trend today, with the help of which you can create a gentle and romantic image.
Fourth place: long bob

Over the years, a bob haircut comes out in the popularity rating in one of its many options. Some years ago at the height of fashion there was a shortened bob, but he gave up his position in favor of an elongated pixie. Now many ladies choose an elongated bob with asymmetry, in which the front strands near the face are longer than the hair on the back of the head. Note taking off that the classic long bob does not include bangs. But you can "play" with the parting, moving it in different directions.
Long bob leaves the neck open, but in this haircut, this is the minimum hair length. The strands at the crown are not shortened. Therefore, such a haircut is not suitable for owners of thin or, on the contrary, too thick hair. She will look perfect on medium thick hair and with manageable straight hair. In other cases, you will have to spend a lot of time styling.
Fifth place: long square

None of the ratings are complete without classics of the genre. In 2021, stylists gave the role of a classic haircut in the list of fashion trends to a long bob. It is a great choice for those women who are not ready to cut their hair too short. At the same time, a long bob is able to refresh the hairstyle and give the image more completeness. A separate plus of this haircut is that it fits any face shape and can hide any flaws. But with the type of hair you need to be careful. Ladies with thin hair may lack volume, so they will have to wash their hair every day.
In a long bob, the hair, as a rule, reaches the collarbone. And you can beat it with a parting or bangs. The even parting and straight bangs are suitable for women who value austere style and impeccability. An asymmetrical bang with a long bob, on the contrary, will add extravagance and bring a touch of rebellious spirit to the image.
