bangs
Nothing works without them in 2023: Bangs are THE hairstyle trend. It doesn’t matter whether you have short or long hair. Thanks to the bangs, the pixie becomes a bixie and a medium-length bob or classic long hair look becomes a casual or sensual trend hairstyle, depending on the style.
Who has hairstyles with fringes: In our Pony Hairstyles Special 2023 you will find out which bangs (straight, sideways, short, long or fringed) best suit your face shape.

Soft mullet
In addition to bangs, you can also stand out as a trendsetter in 2023 with the following hairstyle formula: short and layered – like the new hairstyle hit soft mullet. The refreshing, casual and wonderfully uncomplicated hairstyle is characterized by gentle layers that can be combined with an XL fringe as desired. The modern haircut works with both a medium-length bob and a short bixie.
Who the Soft Mullet suits: The cool trend cut actually suits everyone. All you need is shoulder-length hair. The Soft Mullet can be worn on both curly and straight hair. With the latter, the styling effort is simply a little greater, since you have to get structure and grip into the hair. You just have to invest a little more time in styling to get structure and grip into the hair. Unfortunately, the soft mullet doesn’t look like anything completely smooth.
How to style the soft mullet: The casual undone look is particularly popular. You can easily do this by fluffing up the hair with your fingers using a little styling paste, tweezing individual strands and straightening the bangs (down or to the side).

short bob
The bob, so beloved by many women, is now getting an upgrade or a «shortgrade». With a short bob, the tips of the hair only reach up to the chin. At the same time, the tips are cut bluntly to a line. Anyone who likes Parisian chic is guaranteed to be happy with this hairstyle. Tip: Short bobs with a center parting are particularly popular right now…
Who the short bob suits: It suits every face shape and hair structure. This should also be the reason why it is one of the most popular hairstyles at the moment.
How to style the short bob: The accurately cut look is extremely variable and allows all styling variations – regardless of whether you prefer playful curls or the elegant, smooth sleek look. A ponytail also looks great with a short bob. If you have wavy hair, it is advisable to use a frizz spray and some oil before drying your hair to give the curls a nice definition and shine. A little hair oil in the tips and lengths also makes the sleek look look particularly classy.

soft layers
The blunt cut (unless it is a distinctive bob haircut) is now saying goodbye to the hairstyle hit list and making room for layered cuts. All hair types now benefit from this. Because fine hair gets more volume through the layers, thick hair becomes lighter and more playful and natural curls can be stylishly emphasized. The steps are stepped starting from the middle parting.
How to style the casual look: You can air dry the hair. To get light waves, massage mousse into your hair and twist individual strands loosely. To finish, spray dry hair with a touch of shine spray. If you want a lot of volume, then a hot air brush brings a lot of fullness to long hair.
Who is standing: This look is perfect for oval faces. The styling also suits heart-shaped portraits if the upper part is kept smooth. With the curls on the sides, the narrow jawline can be cheated wider. Ladies with round faces should make sure that the layered hair does not look too voluminous, as this makes the face look even fuller.

Bixie cut
As mentioned above, the bixie cut – a combination of bob and pixie – is also one of the hottest hairstyle trends this year. The bixie inherited the long bangs from the bob haircut, and the gradations on the sides and back of the head from the pixie.
Who the bixie suits: The new trendy hairstyle suits every face shape. It is particularly suitable for normal and fine hair, as the layered hair provides more volume.
How to style the bixie: The cool hair look can be styled in many different ways – whether it’s straight or curly hair. You can let the bangs fall loosely in the face or style them back with styling gel. It is important that the hair is freshly washed and has as much volume as possible.

Mixie
With the Mixie, another hairstyle hybrid is making strong competition for the Bixie this year. The term hides a combination of pixie and mullet. In contrast to the bixie, the mixie is shorter and less fringed on the top coat. In the neck and on the ears, however, the hair is longer and fringed than on the bixie. The Mixie is therefore perfect as a transitional hairstyle to let the short hair grow long again.
Styling tip: You don’t need to spend a lot of time styling because a mixie dries on its own. You can then fix your desired look with some styling cream (wax). Simply spread the product in your hands, work evenly into the lengths and ends and shape the hair according to your taste. The only downside to this hairstyle is that regular visits to the hairdresser (every 4 to 6 weeks) are a must for the mixie to look good.

Lazy hair style
This relaxed hairstyle hit will stay with us in 2023. These include, for example, overlong curtain bangs, the fringed retro shag or the short choppy bob with layers in the top coat and fringed hair ends. XXL hair in the Rapunzel style is also particularly popular. The important thing here is that you take good care of your hair and have the tips trimmed regularly, otherwise the very long mane will quickly look unkempt. Whatever haircut you choose, it is important that it looks casual and that you can wear it without a flat iron or curling iron.
Who the lazy hair style suits: If your face is narrow, you should choose a casual hairstyle in a shorter version. If your portrait has a more rounded shape, the long variant is the perfect choice for you, because the hair falling in the face makes it appear narrower.

wet look
For some designers, the models walked down the catwalk with wet hair – as if they had just stepped out of a pool and put on their evening gowns. We find this trend easy to fall in love with, because with a side parting and a casual sleek look on top of the head, the ponytail, bun or long, loose hair gets a glamorous attitude.
How to style the wet look: If necessary, the hair should be straightened with an iron beforehand. Then use a tail comb to part the sides and add cream wax to the roots. Now either tuck the sides of your loose hair behind your ears or tie them in a ponytail or bun at the back of your neck and spray hairspray over them. It is best to wear eye-catcher earrings and striking eye make-up.
Who it suits: This hairstyle is particularly flattering for women with oval and square face shapes.

hair accessories
As little girls, hair clips or hoops were one of our favorite possessions. After we dropped them in primary school, we can now wear them with pride again. Because the hair accessory is also very trendy in 2023 for short hair. You can go for very simple models without a lot of frills or decorate your hair with pretty statement pieces (with pearls or rhinestones).
