Hairstyles from the 50s to today!

Hello!

Here we go again with a brand new article!

Today we are particularly interested in the way women wear their hair from the 1950s to today.

The 50s or the glamorous and retro look par excellence!

The hairstyle of the 50s, is marked by a post-war context, which pushes women to adopt a more feminine style and glamour!

We associate the hairstyle of the 50s with retro Hollywood chic. It’s a time of hair experimentation.

It can be noted that two opposing styles; the very feminine one and the more tomboyish one.

From Marilyn Monroe to Audrey Hepburn without forgetting Grace Kelly, or rather from sublime curls to banana bun or even the boyish cut, we are not left out.

Let's take a look back at the hairstyles that marked this period of elegance!

Time for curls!

One of the hairstyles that most marked this era!

Worthy of Hollywood stars, these are indeed sculpted curls!

We all have in mind the sublime and sensual Marylin Monroe in fact it was she who launched this fashion!

Every woman wanted to look like her, so fashion moved to sculpted curls and platinum blonde coloring!

The pixie cut!

Highlighted by Audrey Hepburn, short hair is added to the list of trendy hairstyles of this period! No longer hair, it's time to refresh your hairstyle! The boyish cut is no less feminine and refined!

The banana bun!

Once again, brought by Audrey Hepburn, a true icon of the 50s, we find the banana bun!

To do it quickly, gather your hair at the nape of your neck like to make a ponytail.

We plate our hair with wax then we roll it up, gradually raising it to the top of the head. Little by little, we hold the hairstyle with pins to bun, the best would be invisible!

Superb rock’n’roll attitude with a headband in your hair!

This period lived like female liberation, saw women adorn themselves with denim jackets and shirts, sporting hairstyles, each more rock than the last!

We find the famous bandana tied in the hair, the latter allows the hair to be lifted into a bun! We don't forget the famous puff at the front, emblematic of this period! Some will even dare to wear an Elvis Presley-style banana hairstyle!

For a softer, less rock, but very modern version, we suggest you create this type of hairstyle with one of our headbands! This would be super fresh with, for example, the Elo headbandï in Porcelain Blue Flowers! We see it perfectly well putting the hair up in a bun, then we add a little puff at the forehead for such a retro look!

The 60s, or the reign of voluminous hairstyles:

The hairstyles from the 60s are making a comeback on the hair scene. Varied, with bouffant buns, tied scarves or even cuts square, we are fans of them! The it-accessory of the sixties, the headband that we never get tired of!

We note 4 key trends of this period:

The maxi volume

In number 1, we find the maximum volume! Suitable for all hairstyles, it is a sixties essential! The bouffant adds relief to all styles and gives the illusion that you are taller!

To recreate this look we suggest you backcomb your hair then add a headband! The choice is wide, you can decide whether or not to match it with your outfit of the day!

We offer you, simple and effective, the Catherine headband! Available in lilac or white, it will be perfect and sober to accessorize your look!

The boyish cut

In number 2, worn by the model Twiggy there is the boyish cut! If the bob cut in long or short version was very present in the 60s, another cut was able to impose itself and overshadow it!

To do this, you only need two elements; 

A comb and a hairspray/wax/gel! And it's up to you!

The sauerkraut bun

A must-have seen in particular on Brigitte Bardot! We often see it with very large bangs.

Technology? It’s just a matter of backcombing your hair to give maximum volume and then gathering the hair into a half ponytail. Finally, all we have to do is leave the hair loose and without any real shape, a little fuzzy!

The parting in the middle

As the hippie movement is just beginning, we have also seen the development of the middle parting, long, loose and fuzzy hair, without structured shapes as seen in recent years!

For a bohemian atmosphere, note that the fringe was a plus to the look!

The 70s a return to the hippie/bohemian chic look!

The 70s, difficult to talk about them without thinking of the hippie movement! Hairstyles are varied and there is no shortage of inspiration, here are some examples!

Hair accessories to be at the forefront of fashion

The hair accessory was a very present asset in the 70s!

The hair was rather loose, revealing pretty waves. Find all our tips for curling your hair without heat in our blog article on this subject! To complete the look, a scarf was often tied into the hair; associated with the rest of the outfit or not, we always tie it around the top of the head to assert the bohemian style!  

We achieve this look with all the headbands in the collection!

Fringe for a sophisticated look, sublime with a ribbon scrunchie!

The compact-looking fringe falling delicately over the eyebrows was a key element of 70s fashion!

We suggest you copy this look, by backcombing your hair to give it lots of volume! Then come and equip yourself with a ribbon scrunchie to keep your ponytail high!

We think for example of the Lizy ribbon scrunchie !

  

The Mireille Darc square

A very short square cut with maxi volume! Here’s yet another trend from this period! Whether you agree or not, the square cut has come back into fashion more than ever recently in a simpler style!

The 80s or the years of stylistic audacity!

In the 80s the fashion was mainly for embossed hair. As well as the return of eternal volume, maxi blow-drying was required in a very different aspect, there was also the presence of very short hair, a trend seen in particular on Madonna.

Waffle hair

In the 80s, embossed hair all over the head was particularly trendy! The goal was to obtain an XXL volume!

For a more manageable and simpler look, we only chose a few strands to emboss in order to give a little fun touch to our hairstyle!

Maxi volume blow-dry

As always, the watchword was volume! So, we relied on a maxi blow-dry, hair lifted from the roots, to which we could add pretty waves for a perfect finish.

Short hair for a rebellious look!

The pixie cut was also very fashionable, but this time a nuance was added. Compared to the 60s, a rebellious and uninhibited aspect was added!

Wavy hair still so trendy!

Wavy hair a bit like Julia Robert was also omnipresent.

The mullet cut for an offbeat style

This cut revisited by big stars years later actually comes from the 80s.

The 90s, the appearance of our favorite hair accessories!

Fashion is an eternal beginning, the trendy hairstyles of this era are proof of this. Here are some of these gems that we even find on the front page of catwalks today!

  

The bandana/headband looks great on all hair!

The bandana or even the headband clearing our face, but leaving the length of the hair detached was a hair accessory of our adolescence!

Always up to date Bohomane offers you a more modern remake of this trend!

Various headbands or headbands with a wide choice of prints, the result will be nothing short of superb!

To do this, we straighten our hair then we put on the headband so that it presses our hair back!

All the models are suitable for this hairstyle, however we can imagine the Lina Glacier Blue headband or even the Gabrielle broderie anglaise model!

The scrunchie, also a must!

Forgotten for a while, it has made a comeback and we can't live without it!

The advantage is that it comes in many materials and colors, perfect for accessorizing all outfits and bringing a touch of pep to looks!

On our eshop, at the level of scrunchies there is no shortage of choice, we can offer you, for a very retro look, the Maurice model available in different colors.

Used to maintain many hairstyles, such as low buns or ponytails, the scrunchie was an indispensable and is always!

The two strands at the forehead or even the two braids!

Often done with a raised bun or with the hair held in place by a claw clip, we leave two fine strands of hair loose at the forehead!

Twisted on themselves, the two strands, preferably thin, hang on the front our side. A very fashionable trend, currently taken up by model Bella Hadid!

A remake exists, it involves making two braids instead of just letting the strands of hair hang at the forehead! Seen everywhere on social media, 90s hairstyles are making a comeback!

Don't forget the high half ponytail!

A classic that we love! Often associated with blow-drying inside, and less harmful for our hair!

In fact, no more hair wands, we opt for a less intense straightening especially on the lengths and we let our hair rise towards the outside!

The 2000s for unforgettable style:

The cuts and hairstyles from this period were memorable! Very varied, often brought by the stars! We are sure that certain cuts or hairstyles have stood out to you!

A thought for the brushing strand which is rebating to Kelly Roland!

Or like Jennifer Lopez, the high ponytail with a little beanie.

In the absence of the beanie we would opt for this hairstyle but with our Isae Blanc wool headband ! Perfect in case of a little cold to cover your head while looking stylish!

We couldn't not remind you of this trend, big blonde highlights on a brown base, a bit like Victoria Beckham or even more marked like Christina Aguillera!

There was also the famous zig zag parting à la Christina Aguillera!

We're also not forgetting Tyra Banks' famous look! The two hair clips in this case, butterfly on each side of the head! You will find endless hair clips on our e-shop!

As you can see some looks from this period have made a comeback!

For example; high pigtails, proudly worn by Britney Spears in 2000, are back! To enjoy the style of the 2000s even more, you can think about adding very thick scrunchies or butterfly claw clips . A trend that is making a comeback!

At Bohomane we offer you a wide selection of scrunchies ideal to reproduce this type of hairstyle!

We see it well with the pink Karly scrunchie for example!

Another alternative, braided quilts, we find them today in current looks, they have also been reworked and recently seen on a Korean artist named MLMA.

Trendy cuts for fall/winter 2021:

There is no shortage of trendy cuts for 2021! They are all varied and more sophisticated than each other! We note that fashion is an eternal beginning! Some trendy looks from previous years are becoming trendy again today, albeit with a few modifications!

The ponytail in all forms!

The low ponytail! A classic, easy to make and elegant! To do this, we opt for the Maurice scrunchie, the latest trend, velvet! Or for the black Eva scrunchie, a essential to have!

We note that remakes exist for example with an ear of corn braid made before attaching the low ponytail!

Seen on social networks, the sophisticated ponytail! We dare create a ponytail low , then we attach it with a large scrunchie. A few centimeters in below, we put a second scrunchie, and we repeats  the action with a third scrunchie. Then we end up shooting lightly the bits in order to e give du volume! A look worthy catwalks !

We see it perfectly with our Tamara scrunchie!

The hair clip claw is a great asset to enhance an outfit!

In the big returns, we find the claw clip! Simple, just tie your hair with it in a graceful way and that's it! We will opt for a sober and elegant model for an elegant look!

The sublime hair clips to accessorize all your hairstyles!

Then we also find the hair clip! This is timely, bohomane offers you a wide selection of hair clips for all desires!

We suggest you opt first for simple and discreet model which will match your looks perfectly while adding the fashion touch that was missing!

First of all, we imagine the Eleonora gold circle hair clip suitable for many hairstyles, it will be the essential accessory for your wardrobe!

The square for a chic look!

In the cuts, we find the legendary square cut! Summer is over, it's time to refresh yourself!

Hair trends it's up to you whether you follow them or not!
