The trendiest short hairstyles for fall 2022
From stylish pixie cuts to elegant bob hairstyles: this fall, short haircuts are very popular again! Check out the options that are trending now and choose a new modern cut.
Mid-Length Bob
A popular fall 2022 haircut that falls somewhere between short and medium-length is the mid-length bob. Not a short bob, but not a Lob either, this hairstyle is one of the most easy-care yet elegant short hairstyles of all. The possibilities for styling are simply endless and the trendy hairstyle can be easily adapted to any hair type.
The baby wave bob and the flicked bob are among the most popular styling variations of the haircut this season. In the first, the hair is styled with gentle waves that look particularly natural and subtle. With the second option, you tend to play with the tips of your hair, which are slightly blow-dried outwards at chin length. This creates a particularly striking effect that looks very pretty and feminine.
Airy Bob – the volume miracle
For women with thin hair, the Airy Bob is the perfect hairstyle for fall 2022, which creates volume and thickness. Fine hair is first cut into a blunt cut and then styled with a hair dryer and round brush. Slightly twist the ends in and add extra volume at the roots to achieve this trendy look.
The volume miracle is also suitable for thick hair, although some weight has to be removed by slightly layering the ends of the hair.
Feathered Pixie Bob
If you prefer to wear your hair even shorter, this pixie variation is the best choice. It fits both young and older women perfectly and is one of the most beautiful transitional hairstyles between very short and medium length. A pixie bob requires little or no maintenance if the cut is done right. Depending on the hair structure, the short hairstyle is also suitable for a wash-and-go look.
