Before you go to the salon, look at these 9 hairstyles that have gone out of style.

“Even the best haircut must be renewed. Sooner or later, your boyfriend becomes immune to it, like bacteria to penicillin,” said Polish writer Janina Ipohorska. Really, always wearing the same hairstyle for several years, even when it matches your face, is boring. Fashion doesn’t stop reinventing itself, and even though it’s impossible to follow all the new trends, sometimes it’s worth heeding the advice of some stylists and fashion experts and leaving behind a style that no longer adds anything new to yours. visual.

We gathered today’s main ‘anti-trends’ in relation to hairstyles and took the opportunity to show modern styles that work as good alternatives to them. Check it out right now and don’t be afraid to change.

The multi-layered cut has been out of fashion for some time now.

“This haircut is the one I least recommend to my clients,” says American hairdresser Jenna Mast. “A cut like this only allows one type of hairstyle. In addition, it is not very sensual and gives neither volume nor length to the hair. Forget it!”

How to replace? With a bob or lob cut (longer bob), with discreet layers. The ‘steps’ should create a feeling of lightness and a discreet mess. If you want to add a lively touch to your long hair, opt for a discreet stagger, or simply leave a few shorter strands on your face. But don’t cut your entire hair in layers.

A few seasons ago, hundreds of fashion lovers showed up with their hair shaved off. Some shaved the back of the neck, others the side, leaving the other side long. “This option only looks good on women with a rebellious style or a super athletic body. This cut leaves the face with very masculine features and increases the chin, leaving it looking more raw”, says American hairdresser Moulay Yacoubi. He says that, to keep the shape of the cut, it is necessary to go to the hairdresser once a month. Also, when a person gets tired of the style, they have to wait a long time for the shaved part to reach a normal length.

How to replace? If you want to risk a sassy cut, you can shave a small area on the side or back of your hair, always leaving enough length on top so that part can be covered. All sorts of variations on the pixie cut are still current and cool.

O mullet it was a very popular haircut in the 70s and 80s: short hair on top and on the sides and long in the back. In the 2000s he became very popular in his reverse version: short hair in the back and very long bangs, usually to the sides. This cut looked great on Justin Bieber in his youth, but it didn’t suit a lot of women who risked the same style.

“A haircut must be chosen carefully based on the shape of the face and the structure of the hair, and the process can take a lot of trial and error to reach the ideal. The problem with the inverted mullet is the lack of balance. The top requires a lot of hairspray and the bangs tend to look too long,” says Guy Riggio, a hairstylist in Los Angeles, USA.

How to replace? Among the short haircuts, the pixie it’s the waiter are still the best alternatives. The more daring women who like to follow the new trends can try a shorter buzz, but it is important to remember that the very short cut leaves the face very exposed, also showing all the characteristics of the skin.

Pointed out ends have been out of fashion for over 20 years. This cut doesn’t add anything new, it just ages and gives you headaches. Also, to get the volume you need, you need to have thick enough hair. Hair that’s too fine doesn’t work with this type of cut.

How to replace? “Don’t take a hairstyle that focuses on the ends too seriously,” says Kevin Mancuso, a famous New York hairdresser. “They need to be up a little bit, but they shouldn’t fly away.” If your ends curl outward on their own, you can try the wet hairstyle that hairstylist Jen Atkin applied to Bella Hadid’s hair. Modern variations on the shag and bob cuts, with slightly tousled ends, are also good options. Remember once again that the many layers shouldn’t be worn, and the sticking out ends can’t look unnatural.

“A half-do”, that’s what stylist Jenna Mast calls her shapeless long hair. This middle ground is neither the carré cut nor long hair, that is, it stays in the middle and leaves the hairstyle with an old face.

How to replace? “Talk to your stylist and find out what style you want to go with,” recommends Jenna Mast. In order for your hair to be in order, you don’t need a cut full of shapes. If you grow your hair out, opt for modern lob options so that the transition between short and long is elegant.

“Bright streaks and contrasting with the rest of the hair, like Britney Spears at the beginning of her career, are in the past. Modern trends increasingly require naturalness and discreet color changes”, recalls specialist Kali Ferrara, from New York.

How to replace? For a more natural tone, don’t forget to add a splash of color to your hair after slashing your hair. Modern coloring techniques allow for a kind of discreet gradient. For example, strands balayage they look great in cascading haircuts; in the technique of babylights only part of the hair is changed; and the locks ombre and sombre remain popular, but without color contrast.

This hairstyle is also called the ‘Carol Brady style’ after the popular American television heroine of the 70s. Different variations of this cut have been in fashion for many years, but now it has almost fallen by the wayside. “One of the biggest advantages of a hairstyle with short hair is the emphasis given to the neck. And a tail in the back is completely unnecessary,” says Jon Reyman.

How to replace? “If you decide to cut your hair, then go all the way. Cut it all off and don’t leave a tail,” suggests Jon.

“Let’s remember a strange trend: a strong contrast between light and dark hair, with overlap. She is out of date. A discreet transition between colors is much more elegant,” writes fashion editor Rachel Krause.

How to replace? Apply one of the modern coloring techniques to achieve discreet transitions between tones. If you like to attract attention, bright colors are a good option.

If you have long hair, be sure to cut the ends. The long, V-shaped hair in the back looks very unkempt. “It’s as if the person is looking for alternative strategies to make the hair appear longer. That’s not worth it. The ‘longer, more elegant’ idea is left behind”, says hairstylist Jon Reyman.

How to replace? With a straight cut or a little rounded on the sides. If your hair is thick and heavy, Reyman recommends doing several shorter inner layers so that the hair appears fuller and lighter. “With the help of layers and textures you can give your hair movement. Heavy hair ages too much. Find a good hairdresser to get rid of excess weight. A correct cut will make your hair thinner, softer and with a lot more movement.”
