Voluminous short bob

For those who crave a touch of elegance and vitality, the voluminous short bob is like a breath of fresh air for your fall look. Its layered fullness frames the face, enhancing your cheekbones while lending a youthful lift, and the added volume creates the illusion of thicker, healthier hair.

Mid-parted full-bodied waves

There’s something quietly powerful about a mid-parted style, especially when combined with full-bodied waves. The look cascades down with a natural flow that draws attention to your facial structure, softening lines and creating balance, the waves provide movement, giving your hair life without requiring much maintenance, and the center part adds symmetry to the face.

Short wavy bob

The short wavy bob is the epitome of structured playfulness; with its subtle waves, this cut strikes the perfect balance between casual ease and sharp style. The wavy texture adds depth and dimension to your hair, effortlessly framing your face in a way that feels light and fresh.

Tousled pixie

For the woman who loves a bit of edge with her elegance, the tousled pixie is your signature fall look. With a carefree, undone texture, the style breathes life into your hair, adding layers of movement and personality, and the tousled effect creates volume at the crown, subtly lifting your features and elongating the neck.

Classic pixie with fringe

The classic pixie with fringe is proof that sophistication never goes out of style. The tailored cut hugs your head in all the right places, highlighting the eyes and cheekbones, while the fringe softens the look by adding a playful touch, creating a contrast that’s both sleek and youthful.

Short blunt bob with soft-curled fringe

For the woman who loves structure with a dash of softness, the short blunt bob with soft-curled fringe is the perfect blend. The blunt cut adds a sharp, modern edge, while the curled fringe introduces a hint of femininity and softness around the face.

Textured S-curls

Textured S-curls bring a vintage flair to your fall hairstyle, but with a modern, carefree attitude. The defined curls have a sculptural quality, adding texture and depth to your hair, which can help create the illusion of fullness, whereas the S-shape offers movement without being wild, framing the face in a way that adds softness to your facial assets.

Old hollywood glam curls

Step into the elegance of yesteryear with old Hollywood glam curls – such smooth, voluminous curls evoke the timeless style of screen sirens, offering a luxurious and polished look. The weight of the curls draws attention to your neckline and collarbone, creating a sophisticated silhouette.

Curly medium shag

The curly medium shag is a modern take on the classic shag, integrating bouncy curls into the mix. The curly shag provides a natural lift to your hair, making it look fuller and bouncier, combating the flatness that can occur due to aging hair.

Full-bodied small curls

For those lovely women who love the beauty of texture, full-bodied small curls are the ultimate fall hairstyle. Such tight, defined curls offer a sense of structure and fullness, enhancing your natural hair pattern while adding depth to your look, whereas the curls bounce with energy, giving your hair a dynamic, youthful appearance.

Layered cut with subtle waves

When it comes to a style that flatters everyone, the layered cut with subtle waves is a winning choice. The layers provide volume and lift, giving your hair more movement and preventing it from feeling flat; meanwhile, the subtle waves add a touch of softness that flatters the face, especially around the jawline and cheeks.

Side brushed layered soft waves

The side-brushed layered soft waves create a graceful and voluminous look. The side part adds drama and lifts to one side of your face, whereas the soft waves cascade gently to frame your features, all while adding fullness to your hair without feeling overly styled.

Coiled side-parted afro

Getting a coiled side-parted afro is all about embracing your natural texture in the boldest, most beautiful way. With tightly coiled curls styled into a side-parted shape, the hairstyle celebrates volume and texture, the side part adds structure, and the natural curls create a flattering fullness that enhances your facial features.

Tapered curly bob

Yes, the tapered curly bob brings together the best of both worlds: structure and texture. With the back tapered to create a sleek silhouette and the front left voluminous with curls, the hairstyle adds dimension to your look, while the curls soften the overall effect, making it polished yet playful.

Subtle bedhead waves

If you want to look chic without appearing too ‘done,’ subtle bedhead waves are the perfect go-to. It’s a hairstyle that gives off an effortlessly undone vibe, with loose waves that suggest you’ve just rolled out of bed looking this fabulous.

Vintage-style teased waves

The vintage-style teased waves create a voluminous look that offers fullness and body, particularly for those with thin or fine hair. For fall, this style provides a classy look and ensures comfort with its loose waves.

Layered medium cut with subtle waves

The layered medium cut flatters any face shape, whereas the subtle waves impart femininity and softness to your appearance. The layers make your hair look fuller and healthier, and the subtle waves provide movement without compromising the general structure of the hairstyle.

Side-parted feathered waves

The side-parted feathered waves hairstyle works best on neck length and is achieved by layering the hair and adding a side part. The feathered waves frame the face beautifully and add a sense of volume and movement, making it ideal for those with thin or fine hair.

Sleek pixie cut

The sleek pixie cut is a modern, edgy, and very stylish hairstyle that you can flaunt this fall. The sleekness of the cut gives your look a very polished and refined edge, while the extra-short length keeps you cool and comfortable throughout the fall season.

Side-pinned short hairstyle

The side-pinned short hairstyle is a chic and modern option that offers an array of benefits – first, it’s low-maintenance and easy to style, saving you precious time in the morning. Plus, the side pin flatters your facial features by drawing attention to your cheekbones and eyes.

Short afro curls

Getting short afro curls only requires minimal styling products and lets your natural curls shine – it’s a bold and beautiful style that shows off your unique personality and confidence. Short afro curls are light and airy, making them a fabulous choice for the fall.

Medium length coiled curls

The medium-length coiled curls embrace natural curls and textures – it features medium-length hair styled into tight, coiled curls, creating a voguish look and healthier hair. The coiled curls serve as a natural defense against the heat by providing ample air circulation.

Teased big curls

Teased big curls add volume and vivacity to your hair, making it an ideal style for women who have thin or fine hair. It works by backcombing the hair to create a fuller, denser look; the curls add a flattering softness to your face, enhancing the eyes and cheekbones.

Wavy pixie cut

Go for a wavy pixie cut this fall as it is a chic and modern hairstyle that is low-maintenance and perfect for the fall months. The pixie cut is a prevalent style for women over 60 as it draws attention to the eyes and cheekbones, and it’s also a fuss-free hairstyle that requires minimal styling.
