If the past couple seasons have been focused on embracing natural texture and no-fuss hairstyles, fall 2024 is gearing up to be all that and a little something extra. Kicking off a new season calls for fresh starts of all kinds, making it the perfect time for fall 2024 hair trends to guide us straight to the salon for a new haircut or hair color. Because it's never too late to switch up your look this year!

Low-maintenance styling is being taken up a notch with statement-making cuts that do all the work and call back to past eras and decades. If you've been wanting to make a chop, there are shaggy layers, blunt fringe, and retro styles just waiting to be shorn. We're talking modern updates on vintage bobs, bangs, and long cuts, too.

Here are the trendy haircuts you'll be seeing everywhere for fall 2024.

Textured Layers

@chrisjones_hair

You can add so much more texture to naturally fine hair using layers, layers, and more layers—focusing midway down the hair to the ends ensures you don't lose too much volume.

Wispy Bangs

Ginger Spice

In case you got distracted by the show-stopping ginger hair color, this cut deserves just as much attention. Curls love a bunch of layering to add to their natural bounce, and wispy bangs refresh absolutely any haircut or length.

@t.techniques

Add a side part to a cropped cut for extra volume, which curls already enhance naturally.

We wish we could speak our minds as bluntly as these ends. Keeping a cut free from too much layering ensures a super thick bob with tons of style.

Letting curls grow and run as they may is easy with a good haircut. Here, layers and bangs only add to natural volume.

This low-maintenance cut is slightly longer in the front than the back, which elongates and flatters oval and round face shapes to no end.

Long and Layered Cut

Long & Layered Cut
@donovanmillshair

You thought you'd seen the last of this early-to-mid 2000s cut, hm? When everyone else is going short, why not go long?

Big Shoulder-Grazing Curls

Big Shoulder-Grazing Curls
@natalieannehair

This length is not to be ignored. It's short enough to really snatch onto major volume and long enough to make a statement.

Thick Curly Cut

Thick Curls

@leysahairandmakeup

Curls don't have to be weighed down, even if they are enviously thick. Ask for layering and wispy bangs to gradually add volume.

34 of 45

Angled Long Bob

Angled Lob
@chrisjones_hair

Angles are a great way to refresh any length, especially short cuts that fall above the collarbones. Ask for an A-line cut that's longer in the front, but not stacked in the back.

The New Triangle Cut

The New Triangle Cut
@sarahkstylistmt

Curly girls are taught to be afraid of ending up with a triangle cut (also known as the pyramid cut), but this modern version is changing the tune.

Flippy Layers

Flippy Layers
@lindseyneavitt901

Flippy layers have a nostalgic, early-2000s feel, but that's not the only reason to order them up at the salon. They also make it easier to mock the look of a fresh, bouncy blowout.
