Let’s be honest: Medium-length haircuts get a bad rap. Often, we treat mid-length hairstyles as if they’re a burden on us. “It’s at that awkward length at the moment,” we say. For some time, medium-length haircuts have been considered (dare we say it) a little dated. Here at Who What Wear, however, we like to see the potential in everything and have concluded that we’ve been sat on mid-length styles for too long. In fact, we’d go as far to say medium-length cuts are back. Short hair can be high-maintenance, and long hair can prove a pain, so in theory, medium-length haircuts should be the crowd favourite—and they’re becoming increasingly popular. Forget blunt chops and shapeless mops. The midi cut can be cooler than you ever believed, especially in 2022. “A lot of curre...

Although I’ve always been a brunette, as soon as the sun makes an appearance and the temperature soars, I’m always tempted to go lighter. I usually opt for balayage or highlights to give my summer hair colour some dimension, but each summer I feel a jolt of excitement of going just a little bit blonder. In fact, hairdressers and hair colourists often tell me that once you dabble with blonde, you never look back. However, choosing the right shade of blonde can be an overwhelming decision. So, we enlisted the help of Jordanna Cobella, Creative Director of Cobella Salon and Wella Professionals Craft Expert, to talk us through blonde hair–and I’ve saved the best blonde hair colours that I’ve found to provide some salon inspiration. “When choosing the rig...

“The best way to use a hair mousse is to really pump out a golf ball–size amount into the palm of your hands and then use your fingers to take small amounts and slowly rake it through the hair, starting at the ends and using the remaining amount of mousse to be scrunched into the roots,” says King. “If you have curly hair, I would do the same thing, but always scrunch into the hair. Do not rake through the hair because this can create frizz. So always scrunch into the hair, starting at the mid-lengths to ends and then ending the last amount scrunching at the roots.” The great thing about mousse is that it can work for all hair types and textures. “Mousse is really good because it encourages really defined curls or coils in type 3 and type 4 hair,” h...

I don’t know about you, but I love the start of a new season, particularly the start of autumn/winter. As the leaves turn to fiery orange, and we swap our summer footwear for winter boots, I can’t help but get swept up in that back-to-school feeling, pulling out my trusted knitwear and adding some new A/W trends to my wardrobe. Same for you? If so, it’s only natural that we’re also keen to update our hair as the seasons shift. While in summer, we might opt for lighter, golden hair colour such as balayage, in autumn and winter, it can be fun to embrace those warmer auburn and brunette shades. Nothing gives that back-to-school feeling like a brand-new haircut, and a big chop is a fail-safe for riddi...

The best starting point, when attempting to deal with hair loss, is to take a look at the shampoo you are using. If your hair loss is scalp-related, it’s likely that swapping your current shampoo out for a specialist product aimed at hair loss will make a difference. “The health of your scalp plays a vital role in hair growth. Everything from scalp inflammation and microbial imbalances to genetics and hormonal sensitivities can impact the health of your hair follicles, and the hairs that emerge from them. Use daily topical products to help stimulate and protect your scalp from both internal and external aggressors, ” says Consultant Trichologist Anabel Kingsley. With that in mind though, it’s important to know the limitations of to...

For the majority of my life, I had hair that went past my waist. My hair became part of my identity—I was known for having extremely long hair, and I loved my hair. I’ve cut it off a couple of times and always let it grow back, but in the summer of 2020, I wanted a major change, so I chopped it into a bob. Since then, I’ve been trying to grow it back, but it just hasn’t been growing as fast as I’d like it to thanks to a few too many “maintenance” haircuts and one extremely damaging round of highlights before I took my hair dark.  After my last haircut in December, I decided to get serious about growing my hair out again. Hair typically grows about six inches a year, or half an inch per month. I am an impatient person, so I tried every hack in the book to get my hair to grow ...

Since launching in 2018, the Dyson AirWrap has sent the beauty world into a spin. Thanks to the likes of TikTok and influencers using the hairstyling tool to create sought after ’90s blowouts, waves and sleek styles, its popularity has sky-rocketed and, as a result, it’s often sold out across multiple retailers. And any new stock that does come in doesn’t stay around for very long, which only adds to its desirability. So what makes the Dyson AirWrap so special? It’s the only hair tool that harnesses what Dyson call ‘the coanda effect’. This means that the hairstyling tool creates a spinning vortex of air, which draws the hair in and around the barrel, which is what is responsible for creating those bouncy curls you’re seeing on your feed....

I’ve tried so many protective styles over the years including braids, wigs, weaves and twists. The best thing about protective styling is that you wake up with your hair pretty much done every day, something that I revel in when comparing the daily management of my curly hair when I decide to wear it in a natural style. Most of the time now I opt for a U-part wig. I leave two thirds of my hair cornrowed underneath and then the top section covers and blends in with the rest of the wig for a seamless look. When it comes to wigs and weaves, you can really experiment with length and colour without having to work without commitment too. Honestly, if you haven’t tried a protective style for your afro textured hair in summer, I urge you to you’ll love much time and worry it’ll free up, so you’ll ...

And the truth is that we’re not entirely sure why. The trend works across all hair types, it’s relatively low maintenance and most importantly, it’s seriously chic. Whether you want to give off fresh, just-showered vibes, make a bold power move or look like you’ve just stepped off the beach, the wet-hair look is calling out to be adopted. We can only assume that the main reason this trend has never hit the mainstream is because it looks hard to pull off—but that doesn’t mean that it is. In reality, the chicest wet-look hairstyles might just be the ultimate no-fuss way to disguise grease on the run-up to wash day, or perhaps they even give your hair a deep-conditioning treatment. A wet-hair look doesn’t have to mean liquidy, flowing lengths. “You ca...

You only have to open Instagram or TikTok to notice that one particular hair trend is totally taking off right now. Fluffy hair is making a major comeback, and we’re here for it. But what exactly is fluffy hair? Clueless‘s Alicia Silvertone is perhaps one of the most well-known poster girls for the trend, and we’re also looking back to ’90s supermodels such as Cindy Crawford and Claudia Schiffer for their bouncy runway blowouts. It is characterised by lots of rounded layers, volume, flicked-under ends and lengths that have a springy bounce. The finish is less glossy than Hollywood waves yet more “done” than beach waves. Think more of a focus on texture and volume. And with influencers such as Matilda Djerf taking on the trend and ...
