2016 Haircut Trends: A Blast From the Past

2016 saw a mix of bold and classic hairstyles trending, reflecting a diverse range of influences. Here's a look at some of the most popular looks:

  • Long Layers: Flowing, layered hair remained a strong trend. This versatile style allowed for movement and could be easily dressed up or down. Celebrities like Selena Gomez often sported this look, driving its popularity. More info about Long%20Layers.

  • The Lob (Long Bob): The Lob was the haircut of 2016. A longer version of the classic bob, it was universally flattering and considered a low-maintenance yet stylish option. Variations included blunt lobs, layered lobs, and wavy lobs.

  • Bobs: Speaking of bobs, the traditional Bob haircut remained a staple. From chin-length to slightly longer, bobs were often styled with texture and movement.

  • Braids: Braids of all kinds were in. From simple Braids like fishtails and French braids to more intricate styles like crown braids and boxer braids, braids added a touch of bohemian chic to any look.

  • Textured Hair: Whether naturally occurring or created with products, texture was key. Think beach waves, messy buns, and tousled updos. The goal was to achieve an effortless, "I woke up like this" vibe. More about Textured%20Hair.

  • Men's Undercuts: For men, the Undercut continued its reign, often paired with a textured top and a disconnected style. Variations included slicked-back undercuts, side-swept undercuts, and undercuts with hard parts.

  • Men's Man Bun: The controversial Man%20Bun persisted as a popular, albeit divisive, hairstyle for men with longer hair.

Overall, 2016 haircuts emphasized versatility, texture, and a balance between effortless style and polished looks.
