Serve up some major hair envy this season by embracing these trendy hairstyles, currently sported by celebs and spotted on runways.
1. The half-up wet look
If your life is one heck of a roller coaster, let this hairstyle be your saving grace this winter. Inspired by the runway at the Philipp Plein Cruise Show 2018, it takes less than five minutes to do and is perfect for fine hair.
2. Bring on the bouffant
Wear it up or down – either way, this flawless look seen at the recent Paris Fashion Week Chanel show will make you feel glamorous enough to treat every street like your own personal ramp. Complement it with a sultry smoky eye as seen in this tutorial.

3. The milkmaid braid
If your hair days are as unpredictable as the Mother City’s notorious wind, you can still enjoy an understated, spectacular look that’ll keep unruly hair firm in place. This look was a clear favourite at the recent New York Fashion Week. Here’s a quick tutorial.
4. Go au natural
Our very own Pearl Thusi is the queen of embracing her beautiful afro. To avoid frizz, infuse your hair with as much moisture as it can hold – hair blogger Ruth Mafupasuggests drying your hair with a microfibre towel, followed by a setting gel.
5. The messy braid for the oversleepers
Big on snoozing? Then you’ll appreciate this look. Like the half-up wet look, it requires minimal effort and will also give your hair a break from being pulled back.

6. Head over for the headscarf
Okay, we know this isn't exactly a trend, but look at these Instagrammers fabulously slaying the headscarf. You can also transform a plain winter outfit into something magnificently vibrant, plus it’ll keep your head warm!
7. The fail-proof low pony
Low maintenance, simple and sophisticated – what’s not to love? Spotted on the runway and sported by beloved fashion blogger, Chiara Ferragni, you can recreate this simple look for almost every occasion this season. Complete the look with a velvet black bow as seen on Sophia Bush at this year's SAG awards.

8. Princess Leia buns
Trap your bothersome strands by using a clear gel likeL'Oreal Studio Line’s Invisi'hold to maintain a flexible hold on this iridescent, yet subtle look.
9. Go big and go glam
Rose Byrne brought back the '70s and killed it in the disco-diva look she slayed at this year’s Met Gala. Sure, it’ll require a bit of patience, but the result is worth it, yeah?
10. Contour colouring
Skip the face contouring this winter and opt for the hair contour, aka balayage, instead.
“Very natural and low maintenance cuts and colours are very much in demand with balayage and flamboyage being still very popular,” says Nicole Simpson of local hair salon, Stylebar.
Try touches of blonde, honey, caramel or chestnut. Jessica Alba effortlessly pulls off this angelic-look, as seen in New York last month.
