Perhaps one of the boldest looks on this list is a buzz cut, which pros are embracing for its freshness and individuality.

On wet hair, Gutterman likes to use All About Curls Bouncy Cream, then diffuse, and follow with a texture spray.

This style still works for straight hair types, but per the pros, you'll definitely want to add in some products for texture and body. And it works well on wavy or curly hair because 'that many layers allow your hair to take its own shape based on whatever wave or curl pattern you naturally have,' says Thompson. Tai Simon, who regularly works with Zendaya, calls this 'one of those gem trends that's so good – it's really hard to style wrong.' It's the ultimate get up and go, minimal effort, cool-girl style. ' draws inspiration from the '70s and '80s, and the layers pair well with a fluffy bang to give the hair volume, body and movement,' says hairstylist Sarah Potempa, who is also the founder of The Beachwaver Co. We can pretty much credit Jenna Ortega with single-handedly reviving the shag, as well as bringing a modern edge to it.

'I think 'curtain fringe' - or that soft, almost short layer that hugs the cheekbone - is still going strong,' says hairstylist Bobby Eliot, who counts Julia Garner and Grace Van Patten as clients. That also means a major emphasis on bangs, wispy face-framing strands and fringe. Instead of relying on harsh lines around the face, 'we're moving closer to soft girl hair that opens up our faces to highlight our features,' according to Gutterman. 'Haircuts seem to be moving toward more layers and movement we're moving past super-sleek, refined looks and going for more body and texture,' agrees hairstylist Kat Thompson, whose clients include Lana Condor and Drew Barrymore. 'This season is our soft girl season,' declares Los Angeles-based hairstylist Sophie Gutternam. But so far in 2023, trending hairstyles are decidedly less harsh. Haircut trends come and go, and each passing season brings about some dramatic new style (anyone remember last year's wolf cut or 'skullet'?) that requires a fairly extreme commitment - at least until it grows out. With modern shags, wispy bangs, butterfly cuts and box bobs trending, 2023 hair is all about embracing movement, ease and options.
