Like the no-makeup makeup look but for your face, nude hair utilizes a hair color that matches your natural skin tone. Cara Delevigne’s long locks almost perfectly blend with her face, while darker roots add some depth and dimension to the style.

If you’re still styling your hair in big springy curls, these lazy S waves are the texture you need to try this year.

It seems like the last few years have been all about loose lazy waves and soft texture, with very few straight styles in sight. Whether you’ve got long Cher hair or a collarbone grazing cut, try bringing back silky straight texture for an edgy, glam look.

Channel the Mother of Dragons with this double headband updo that will work whether you’re a hardcore fan getting ready for cosplay or just looking for new ways to wear your long hair.

More women are jumping on the buzz cut train, making this the perfect time to try going for the ultimate hair cut.
