5 Ways to Update Your Look in 2023

Are you looking for a completely new look this year? Changing your hairstyle or color can boost your confidence and do wonders for your overall appearance. There are a few ways you can change your look. For instance, if you’re a blonde, you can go to a darker color. You can also try a new hairstyle. Consider a hair trend like a layered bob, long shag, or wispy bangs. Here are a few ideas below to help you achieve the look you want this year.

1. Rock a New Haircut

Have you had the same hairstyle for 10 years or more? One of the easiest ways to refresh your look is to change your hairstyle. If you’re tired of your current cut, consider growing it out or trying a new style like a short shag or a textured bob. You may be surprised at how much a new haircut can make you feel more confident and energetic.

2. Add Color to Your Hair

Another way to achieve a new look is to add color to your hair. Think about what kind of change you want to make. Are you looking for a dramatic difference or a subtle change? Once you’ve decided on the overall effect you want, you can start to narrow down your options.

If you’re not sure what type of color is best for you, you can consult with your salon. Hairstylists are experts in finding the right color for your skin tone and hair type. They may suggest varied hues, a full head color, or subtle highlights.

3. How About Wispy or Curtain Bangs?

Bangs can give you a whole new look, and they're not as difficult to style as you might think. Plus, they look good on almost everyone and can make your face look more youthful. So, if you're thinking about getting bangs, consider wispy bangs or curtain bangs (on right). Bangs can be just what you’re looking for to update your look without a drastic haircut.

4. Go for a Keratin Treatment

If you're looking for a way to achieve silky, smooth hair that's easy to style, a Keratin hair treatment may be right for you. Keratin treatments are becoming increasingly popular because they can cut blow drying in half and give you long-lasting results with minimal upkeep.

During a Keratin treatment, a stylist will apply a Keratin solution to your hair and then use a flat iron to seal it in. This process can take anywhere from 1-2 hours, depending on the length and thickness of your hair. After the treatment, your hair will be smoother, frizz-free, and easier to style.

5. Add Hair Extensions

One option you may want to consider for adding length and/or fullness to your hair is hair extensions. Extensions can be available in a variety of colors and styles. Several types of extensions exist such as sewn-in (Weft extensions) or taped-in. If you're interested in trying extensions, consult with your stylist to find the best type and style for you.
