Have you ever been curious about what the way you style your hair says about you? or how people perceive you with each hairdo?
Hair theory is a concept that explains this phenomenon. Some connotations to hairstyles might come as a surprise to you but the below examples can be used as a guideline on how to approach styling your hair.
The below sources provide various hair theory styles and what they say about your personality.
Firstly, according to Tierney Salons, “The ‘Hair Theory‘ concept centres around the idea that altering the way we style our hair can have a profound effect on how we feel about ourselves and encourages individuals to experiment with diverse hairstyles, hair partings, and hair accessories to showcase the versatility and impact of these subtle yet potent changes.”
The source mentioned above further adds that anybody, regardless of their natural hair type, length, or colour, can follow this trend which means the concept of hair theory also promotes inclusivity.
The founder of The Glasshouse Salon and Spa, Caroline Brooks states, “Hairstyles can reflect your personality, style, and confidence, and all of these factors can influence how people view you.”
She further gives a few examples saying, “A more adventurous, colourful hairstyle may signify a bolder, experimental personality, while a sleeker, more classic cut may suggest a more sophisticated, professional person.”
Caroline also comments on the most popular hairstyles claiming that a down and natural hairstyle gives the impression of a carefree attitude toward beauty, even though it’s frequently one of the easiest looks to achieve, while a sleek bun is considered elegant as it gives off a sophisticated vibe, and a ponytail is “efficient and busy but still likes to keep it simple and stylish.”
