Retro Hairstyles I would Try This Fall

I don't know about you, but I'm always tempted to switch things up when a new season rolls around, and fall feels like the perfect excuse to experiment with a new hairstyle. If you've been thinking about getting a haircut or simply want to try something different, these are some of the retro-inspired looks I've been saving lately and think would be perfect for the season.

Feathered Layers

If there's one retro hairstyle I will never get tired of, it's the iconic Farrah Fawcett blowout. Those feathered layers, the volume and the signature flipped-out ends are just as cool today as they were in the '70s. It's also a great option if you want to add some movement to your hair without losing too much length. It is also very easy to achieve this look and you can do it all by yourself - you just need a round brush, a good blow-dry and a little patience to get those face-framing layers right.

Birkin Bangs

I've always loved the slightly undone look of French-girl bangs, and Jane Birkin is still the ultimate reference. Unlike heavier, perfectly styled fringes, these are lightweight and a little longer, much easier to style. You can wear them across your forehead or sweep them to the side when you feel like switching things up, just like Jane did. If you've been considering getting bangs but aren't ready for a dramatic change, this is probably the version I'd try first.

Retro Bob

I'm into shorter hairstyles lately, and a vintage-inspired bob is something I am trying to go for with my look. It's a little playful, polished and a nice change if you've been wearing your hair long for years. I'd style it with a round brush to get that bouncy finish, but wouldn't worry too much about making every strand perfectly fall into place.

Long Hair With A Center Part

Although my hair is not that long anymore, I believe this is one of the simple hairstyles that looks beautiful on almost everyone. Long, loose waves with a perfectly centered part have that unmistakable '70s appeal, and I love how they can look both relaxed and incredibly glamorous.
Zendaya is a great modern reference for this look, but never forget this came from the queen Cher. I'd keep the waves soft and natural, add a little volume at the roots and let the length do the rest.
