The Spring 2023 Hair Trends You're About to See Everywhere

Hair will be bigger, wetter, and parted way to the side this spring.

Hair trends aren't moving as quickly these days as makeup and nail trends. There's no "glazed donut" equivalent for hair, unless you count the viral TikToks showing off the latest Dyson tools. (That said, anything Hailey Bieber does—like, say, chop her hair—seems to become an instant trend.) And because we all have different hair textures and cuts, not every new hairstyle is so easily adopted by us all.

But the spring 2023 runways in New York, London, Milan, and Paris did in fact show several distinct hair trends that anyone can wear. There's the resurgence of '90s and early 2000s looks we're calling Y2K, as well as a new take on bedhead, cool ways to tie your hair up, and the end of the middle part chokehold. Ahead, the hair trends we think will dominate this spring and beyond.

That sound you heard? That was a collective screenshot from those who worship at the altar of Hailey Bieber when the model and Rhode Skin founder posted her latest haircut.

Then there’s Jenna Ortega, whose textured bob has gone just as viral as her Wednesday dance moves.

Gen-Zers have their pick of short-hair inspo to choose from, as Emma Chamberlain has an equally enviable choppy style.

Shape is extra important for shorter styles, so a lightweight frizz serum will help keep everything smooth without weighing hair down.

Wet Look

We love the pairing of a classic red lip with hair that's a little damp and shiny.

Sure, you could just leave the house with wet hair and see how things go. Or, you could apply a couple pumps of this hair oil to the ends; not only will hair look wet, it will help protect it from the elements.

Side Part

You might look at this picture and think, "more wet hair?" Yes! But it's also parted way off to the side and hanging in the face, which was another major trend on the spring 2023 runways.

Braids can be parted off to the side as well, as seen at Miu Miu. Some models even walked with sporty branded headbands, too.

Y2K

If this hairstyle just gave you a shudder-inducing flashback, it might be time for eye cream. At Givenchy, the only hairstyle appropriate for the y2k-inspired show was this distinct half-up style, which we last wore 20 years ago.

Y2K

Paris Hilton, queen of all things 2000s, closed the show at Versace with her hair parted—guess how!—off to the side.

Prom Updos

Another Y2K resurgence? The perfectly coiffed evening updo, seen here on Meg Stalter. Alexa, play "Kiss Me," by Sixpence None the Richer.

All Tied Up

Don't just toss your hair into a basic ponytail or bun this spring. There are so many cooler ways to tie things up. At Dior, models walked wearing perfectly imperfect low pigtails. We love how the elastics are hidden with hair.

The braids and makeup at Etro took on an abstract quality, which in turn was just so fun.
