The Hairstyle Movements Taking Over This Fall

Summer is the season of the air-dry, but natural finishes aren’t going anywhere this fall. If anything—they’re being perfected. The key is to find routines that work with your hair type and texture and the weather. While the heat of summer makes it easy to wear waves and curls, during the fall you’ve got to get creative to cut down on frizz (and freezing).

Summer is essentially the season of the wave, but adding a bit of polish to your waves helps extend this look right into fall. While this is a great technique to touch up air-dried waves, we love creating this look on freshly blow-dried hair for a refined finish. To enhance the memory hold and movement throughout, EVER.SMOOTH and ANTI.GRAVITY are ideal. And another go-to is DOO.OVER with the added benefit of hold to guard against fall weather.

The cloud curl trend—a fluffy, brushed out, voluminous curl look, is perfect for adding drama and movement to your texture this season. You can start with an air-dry base and touch up with a diffuser or curling iron on day two. Or simply add the right products to your texture to give it the right, refreshed definition.

Curly hair—add UN.TANGLED to damp hair and then follow with KILLER.CURLS and diffuse dry. Then, to finish, spritz SHIMMER.SHINE from root to tip and if extra movement is wanted, follow with DOO.OVER and give your curls a good shake.

Wavy hair—start with STAYING.ALIVE on damp hair and follow with HEATED.DEFENSE and KILLER.WAVES. Diffuse dry and then spritz with BEDROOM.HAIR to enhance airy volume and lightweight hold.

Whether you’re looking for a way to give second-day strands a new lease on life, or simply want to sport a snatched bun or ponytail, adding a few products to your routine will instantly upgrade any finish.

Start with YOUNG.AGAIN treatment oil and run it through dry strands to not only add shine and control, but also improve the health of your hair. Then, begin brushing hair back into a ponytail and laminate with DOO.OVER to create hold while retaining natural movement. Once your ponytail or bun is in place, spritz with SHIMMER.SHINE for a final dose of high shine and layer YOUNG.AGAIN on the ends to detail the look.
