The biggest cut, colour and style hair trends for 2022

From the new 70s shag to Winona Ryder-esque short crops, here are the hair trends to look forward to in 2022, according to our Co-creative Director Joey Scandizzo and Australian Colourist of the year and ELEVEN Australia Education Ambassador, Rachel Vitullo.

With the start of the new year upon us, reinvention calls and a hairstyle update or colour refresh has never felt more tempting. According to Joey, clients want to completely change their look in 2022 and go ‘all-in’ with their cuts and colours. This isn’t just because they finally can, but because they want something completely different and fresh! According to Joey and Rachel, people have had SO MUCH time to think about their hair transformations that they predict they will be creating big chops and lots of colour changes next year. People will be more daring in 2022 and willing to stand out from the crowd.

COOL CUTS

According to Joey, everything from layered bobs, short crops and choppy 70s shags will be topping the wish list when it comes to cuts next year.
