As we near the end of 2022, it’s only right that we take a minute to talk about where we’ve been and where we’re going… in regard to our hair, that is. Back in 2021, we saw a return to salon-fresh style after a year of DIY haircuts and box dye, and the experts predicted as much. There was a revival of ’90s-inspired hair (flipped ends and slick single braids were everywhere) as well as a return to chunky highlights (à la Dua Lipa) and French fringe (a modern classic).
This year, however, experts predicted even more of the unexpected—think edgy and experimental styles, accessories, and color. And, wow, were the predictions accurate! From “Jell-O hair” to statement color and ultra-long locks, keep scrolling to see 11 of the biggest hair trends of 2022—all of which were originally predicted by our fave A-list celebrity hairstylists (and ultimately came true!).
