Coachella Hair and Makeup Trends

The Coolest Beauty Trends From Coachella You'll Want to Wear Year-Round

Apologies in advance for whacking you with the understatement of the year, but beauty rules don't exactly apply to Coachella. (Except when it comes to cultural appropriation; you should follow those like a type-A dad reading TSA guidelines.)

And yet, the annual music festival is more than a kaleidoscopic sensory attack or excuse to whip out your glitter and weirdest-in-the-best-way hair accessories — it's also an opportunity to scope out some kickass beauty trends to carry you through Spring and Summer. With cosmetics brand NYX Professional Makeup backing the event and more on-the-ground inspiration than plastic cups at the end of each night, you're bound to find your new signature look.

From the coolest twist on your classic braids to makeup that gives new meaning to Bright Lite, Coachella's biggest trends ahead will make you feel like a straight-up rock star — even if you're not with the band.

Braided Centre Part

We're of the firm belief that braids are the ideal style for any occasion (don't @ us), but the coolest trend to come from the festival weaved its way to the centre . . . of your crown. Try three braids to bump it up, like you can see here, or keep it casual with a single plait down the middle.

Blunt Bob Haircut

The bob has lived many lives — first in the 1920s as a symbol of rebellion for women, then on just about every celebrity since. This new take on the trend, however, is the bob with so-blunt-they-might-cut-you ends . . . which feels like its own kind of vibe for Summer, right?

Bright Lite Eye Shadow

This is not a game: bright, near-neon eye makeup ruled festival grounds, but we can only imagine how much the saturated pigment will pop when you're wearing it poolside. Consider every other eye look during the warmer months child's play.

Hair Accessories

From bobby pins to statement clips, hair accessories have been picking up steam as one of the biggest trends of 2019, but there's a practical reason to wear them during the summertime: they keep the hair off your face. (The fact that they also look cute as hell is just a bonus.)
