Can you feel it? The seasons are changing and that can only mean one thing: it’s time for your hair to change too. Whether you opt for a quick switch-up by using a hair gloss to refresh your color or you invest in hair growth shampoos to finally achieve the lengths of your dreams, finding the right inspo is so important. While we love viral TikTok beauty moments as much as everyone else, there’s something incredible about looking to the runways instead. It might feel like the New York Fashion Week happened forever ago, but we’re still obsessed. Here, find the five best hair trends we spotted on the runways that you should copy in 2023.
The endorphin dressing trend has migrated to your hair in the form of accessories. Designer Marissa Wilson found inspiration in her Guyanese heritage for both her clothing and beauty looks. The hair, done by stylist Kien Hoang, celebrated each model’s unique cut and texture. On several runways, beaded hair clips and headbands reminded us that more is absolutely more.

Victoria Secret-levels of volume have re-entered the chat. Tom Ford’s big show brought big crimpy-curly hair, thanks to small-barreled curling irons. Elsewhere, stylists used hot rollers and plenty of hairspray to encourage Dolly Parton-esque volume.

Lacy Redway might single-handily make you want to try wet bangs. She gave us two very different varieties on the runways: Christian Siriano’s version had an Old Hollywood twist inspired by Audrey Hepburn’s baby bangs, while Fe Noel’s approach imitated the movement of water.

Inspired by New York City girls on the go, legendary hairstylist Jimmy Paul used Olaplex to give models purposefully messy buns at Jason Wu. Once hair was braided and twisted, the ends were flat-ironed straight (and secured with hairspray) for a look that recalled the ’90s.
