In the springtime, everything shifts a little bit — the days become longer, the sun shines earlier, our mood turns for the better, and our beauty look undergoes a bit of a refresher. In the makeup department, we reach for sheer finishes and minimal regimens; in the hair department, our go-to styles can best be described as "fun" and"breezy," which sums up "the shift" haircut trend [1] nicely.
Never has a spring haircut trend [2] been more aptly named than "the shift." This short hairstyle [3] is categorised by choppy layers of varying lengths on the top of the head. It's kind of like the "disconnected" haircut trend [4], but with less structure. "The 'shift' [has] versatile styling options — from something edgy and raw to extremely polished and sophisticated," Adam Federico [5], R+Co's director of content, told POPSUGAR. "The haircut can be finished to suit the individual's personality and meet them for who they are within that day."
Think: Demi Lovato's edgy cut [6] or Cardi B's Grammy's hairstyle [7]. The beauty of it is that it can work on all hair types and textures and is completely customisable.
