Not Doing Your Hair Is The Biggest Hair Trend Of Fall 2023

We all want what we can't have, especially when it comes to our hair. In addition to choosing our outfits and doing our makeup in the sleepy morning hours, we also sit or stand in front of the mirror forever to style our hair in hopes of making it look how we want — instead of just letting it do its thing. But when you think about it, why do we feel like we need to do all that extra styling? After all, we're finally seeing many women feeling comfortable enough to embrace their natural features by going out without makeup, or at least with the no-makeup look, so why can't we have the same attitude about our hair?

In fall 2023, get ready to see more people putting down the hot tools, velcro rollers, fancy brushes, and other hair-styling items because flaunting how our hair looks without all that work is finally trendy. "It's really that carefree '90s hair," Tibi's lead stylist Frank Rizzieri told Who What Wear while backstage at NYFW. So, take inspiration from those free-and-easy vibes of this year's NYFW and stop spending all that time trying to make your hair look different!

Don't touch your straight hair

There are countless options for curling irons and curling wands out there, but to be honest, we never truly understood why anyone with naturally straight hair wouldn't want to keep it that way. Special-event curls a few nights a year are all well and good, but straight hair is also sleek and stunning! We can't think of any reason not to flaunt your lucky straight locks every day.

Let your waves flow

For many years, naturally wavy hair got a bad rap for being "messy" because it landed somewhere between curls and straight tresses — but waves are beautiful and unique! In 2023, people are finally embracing their natural waves with the mermaid haircut, and the style has set society on the path to recognizing that waves are something to admire, not hide.

Embrace natural hair

Natural hair is beautiful, and we think it's high time that movies, television shows, beauty ads, and runways give the au naturel look its long-overdue moment in the spotlight. These hair types are gorgeous, and no one should feel pressured to change their natural style.

Consider not styling your bangs

From mini flat irons to velcro rollers and viral bangs hacks, there are more ways to style your bangs than we can count. But have you ever thought about letting your bangs just do what they want — and dare we say, were meant to do? The messy bang look is playful, cute, and fun, so why spend all that time styling them?

Explore the messy bob

If wearing your long hair with no styling makes you uncomfortable, it might be time for a haircut as messy short hair won't overpower your look as much as unstyled long tresses can. We're obsessed with the bedhead bob trend, as even the messiest, most unbrushed, just-rolled-out-of-bed bobs manage to look chic and glamorous.

Shave it all off

Last but not least, this suggestion is especially for people looking to make a drastic change. If you frequently stress over how to style your hair, why not just get rid of it? Of course, the buzz cut isn't a style that should be adopted impulsively, but if you're willing to commit to a new look that will require no daily styling or thought, why not rock the buzzed look?
