We're not sure if it's the holidays, the new year, or boredom from the hours spent indoors, but winter might be the perfect time to make a hair change. And whether you're looking to do something simple—like change up your part—or drastic—like a major chop—the options are literally endless. That said, certain looks are already trending, so you can start bookmarking (and DM'ing your hairstylist) now. Here are the hair trends we're predicting will be everywhere this winter, plus a few products we love to help you get the looks.

1. Unexpected Accessories
We love when things get little sparklier this time of year. Consider embellished hair pins perfectly appropriate with everything from a party dress to jeans and a tee.
The designer logo trend isn’t going anywhere, either. (Raise your hand if you instantly added these Prada hair clips to your holiday list after seeing them on Sadie Sink.)

2. Zig-Zag Parts
The hair trend that haunted the early aughts is back—but don’t worry, it’s about a million times cooler now—and perfect to wear for a holiday party. To get a look like Bella Hadid’s, take some time to define the part with the end of a comb, and have it lead into an updo or ponytail so it stays taught.
Dixie D’amelio’s wider zig zag is even more true to the original. But the shine and high pony give it a 2021 update.

3. Return of the Bob
Dramatic hair changes aren’t going anywhere, and winter is the perfect time to make one. And although bobs are always in style, Kourtney Kardashian, famous long hair-haver, kicked off the craze again with her chin-length cut.
Even Chrissy Teigen couldn’t resist the charm of the short style, making the cut just days after Kourt debuted hers.

Too much product can overwhelm short styles, so try using a lightweight pomade for keeping strands in place.

4. High Half-Up Hair
The ‘90s flippy look has reigned for a couple of years, but now, celebs like Dua Lipa are wearing a softer (and easier to DIY) take on the style.
For an even more minimalist take like Jennifer Lopez’s, you can simply pull back the front and top strands and secure with an invisible elastic.

5. Icy Blonde
Her specific shade of red in The Queen’s Gambit may have inspired the likes of Gigi Hadid to dye her hair, but we have a hunch Anya Taylor-Joy’s bright blonde will spark just as many trips to the colourist this season.
