Thinking
of getting a new haircut for 2013? Mid-length hair will always be an
option, but if you want to go for something bolder perhaps a short hair
cut – or a very long one – will take your fancy. As far as
short haircuts in 2013 go, the bob is the winner over anything cropped, while for those managing to grow it long hair is still as desirable as ever.
The bob.
Bob hairstyles
In 2013, bob hairstyles
are making their mark. They’re sprouting up on model influencers – from
Karlie Kloss to Edie Campbell and Aline Weber – appearing in chin
length, fringed versions as well as longer bobs that brush the
shoulders. The short hair cut of 2013, the bob is back in a versatile
and modern way.
The shoulder-length bob.
Occupying the space between the chin-length bob and long hair: the
shoulder length bob is your in-between alternative. Sharp and able to be
style to either a modern or a retro bent, it’s a hairstyle worth
considering for spring 2013. Find out more on the shoulder length bob at that link.

Long hair.
At the other end of the extreme when it comes to haircuts in 2013:
ultra long hair. Away from the bob, this is the best way for a hair cut
to make a big impact. The trend on the runways suggests a hair length
that just reaches or covers the breasts, since the look hints at
something a little mythological (think ancient goddesses and mermaids) –
anything longer starts to cross over into medieval maiden territory and
begins to lose its raw sex-appeal.
Very
long hair in 2013 can be cut in two main ways:
blunt, or layered. The truth is that either can work equally well. If
your hair is straight and all one length, a blunt can will mean you can
work both a straight, sleek look and a more textured one. If you have
some shorter layers – especially through the front – you’ve still got
the right foundations for an on-trend long hairstyle. Since a lot of
runway looks use extensions to achieve the right length (meaning there
will always be some shorter, natural layers showing through) and because
the most on-trend styles for long hair are the ones with plenty of
volume and texture, it doesn’t matter if your hair is cut with some
layers.

That said, the long
2013 hair cut isn’t one you want
to thin out too much – remember it’s best with volume and texture – so
the most on-trend way to have it cut is with a few choppy layers, not
completely layered all over.
Whether side parted, center-parted, curled or straight, it’s worth
knowing a few basic textured hairstyles for long hair. Here are some to
try:

has been lingering on the hair trends list for several years running. In
