Hair Trends That Korean Idols Are Swearing By
Fashion is an integral part of the Korean entertainment industry. Owing to the high beauty standards of South Korean celebrities, the pressure to look good is paramount. While skincare is essential, so is fashion. A good stylist makes sure that their client looks their best no matter what and that includes making sure that their hair matches their clothes while also following the latest trends.
Sometimes, however, Korean celebrities themselves, especially K-Pop idols are the ones setting those trends. From fashionable accessories to the most high end clothes, hair becomes the cherry on the top. Here are some of the fashion trends in hair that K-Pop idols are all taking on and swearing by.
1. The Coloured Fringe.
Fringes have always a part of idol fashion. The latest trend in fringes? Dye them. Many K-Pop idols have taken on this trend and executed it perfectly. To add to the effect, use a colour wheel to determine which colour would go with your natural hair or the dye of the rest of your hair, if it's coloured.
2. Curtain Bangs.
Need a soft and delicate look that will frame your face well? Curtain bangs will be your best friend. The bangs have curved ends instead of being jagged and lean to the side of your face which gives that beautifully curtained princess look. Now you don't have to worry about hair falling on your face while also reaping the benefits and beauties of bangs.
3. Highlights.
Highlights have been a part of hair fashion for as far back as hairstylists can remember. K-Pop is bringing them back again with soft highlights becoming a staple in idol hairstyles. Everyone can easily rock highlights without a worry. So go on ahead and get those highlights now! Don't forget to show your stylist a picture of your favourite idol!
4. Ash Tones.
Ash tones are pretty rare in the hair dyeing community. However, there has been a sudden resurgence in the craze for ashy tones, especially after idols started sporting it left and right. Ashy tones are pretty hard to pull of as well but somehow, these style icons do it effortlessly. Whether it be for performances or photo shoots, everything looks good on them it seems.
5. Wet Hair Look.
The wet hair look is notorious for being one of the most sexy hair dos in the entertainment industry in general. So it is no surprise that idols are using this to convey a specific concept or style as per their music videos or stage performances demand. You can achieve this look by simply using hair wax and running your fingers through your hair.
6. Hair Accessories.
Need just the perfect addition to your already perfect hairstyle? Add a hair clip or two. Or maybe even 5! There can never be too many hair accessories. Idols are famous for their out of the box styling choices and bringing 80s style hair accessories back is just one of them. They're perfect for adding a little oomf to your complete look.
