TikTok Hair Ideas to Show Your Stylist ASAP

I could go on and on and on about all the random (and debatably pointless) hacks and facts I’ve learned aimlessly scrolling through the depths of beauty TikTok. But HairTok? Now that’s a subsection that is quite literally overflowing with styling tricks and haircut inspo. TikTok hair trends have found themselves on red carpets, been put to the test by pros, and completely transformed our approach to styling.

So at your next haircut appointment, whip out your phone and pull up saved TikTok hairstyle videos to show your hairdresser the idea you’re going for. Don’t have any saved yet? We’ve got a few suggestions for ya below. If you don’t want just any old haircut and you’re on the search for *THE* haircut, keep scrolling.

Heatless Curls

@erinduganjurchak OMG 😳😳😳 you gotta stick around to see the results. Wow. #hair #heatlesshair #heatlesscurls gifted by @heatless_hair ♬ Into the Thick of It! (Remix) – Sleazy Stereo

Want all the volume and none of the heat damage? TikTok’s heatless curls are at your service. In the early days, people were taking this trend for a go with anything they could find (read: robe straps, t-shirts, long socks), but now there’s so many satin rods to choose from. The silky texture stops tension and tugging, and helps prevent frizz. All you have to do is plop your fabric of choice on top of your head and tightly wrap your preferably damp hair around in circles. Secure it with a scrunchie, have a great night’s sleep, and voilá—you’ll have perfect spirals in the a.m..

Wispy bangs from TikTok

Unlike curtain bangs, with wispy bangs, the goal is to style your fringe toward your face with a round brush or roller to create lightness and volume. But just like curtain bangs, wispy bangs go perfectly with frace-framing pieces and long layers the back. The fringe is great for highlighting facial features and creating more body so your hair doesn’t lie flat against your face and can flow more freely.

Blunt bob haircut ideas

A thick, short bob with a center part or heavy side part is a huge hair trend, so if you’re considering going shorter, this is your sign to do so. Layers are clearly having a moment, especially on haircut TikTok. A blunt cut keeps the weight of the hair at the ends, which creates the appearance of thicker, healthier hair as opposed to a highly textured look that makes the hair look thinner towards the ends.

Slicked-Back Bun

Hailey Bieber, Emma Chamberlain, and Kendall Jenner are just a few of the celebs that embody the so-called “clean girl aesthetic.” While simple tank tops, gold jewelry, and cat eye sunglasses are a huge part of the vibe, TikTok has declared that a slicked-back hairstyle is the icing on top of the figurative cake. The good news? A slicked-back style is also a great way to hide greasy hair. The trick is to stock up on the hair brushes (boar bristle, please) and gels or pomades. For the full breakdown, watch the above video.

Bubble Braids

TikTok is throwing it back to the early aughts with this next hair trend. Bubble braids (yes, the same ones you wore decades ago) are officially back on. There’s dozens of variations all over my FYP. You can do little face framing bubble braids, pigtail bubble braids, one big bubble braid—I could go on. Thankfully, recreating the look is super easy and requires nothing but small elastics.

Ribbon Hack

Using a ribbon or bow is all you need to get the *perfect* done-yet-slightly-undone vibe. To recreate this TikTok hair trend, you’ll wrap a thin ribbon under your hair, with the two ends pulled up behind your ears. Then, do a little criss-cross and tighten the ribbon until your pony is secured at the nape of your neck. Tie it into a knot or a bow and you’re good to go. While this can be a casual look, it’s also one of the best summer wedding hairstyles.
