Light, fluffy, soft: these are the trendy cuts of 2021. The most popular cut? The medium one, both in the short and in the longer version. Look at the pictures!
2021 opens with a strong desire for lightness. And beauty trends echo by proposing haircuts characterized by soft and delicate lines. Green light, therefore, to more or less pronounced layers that make the hair fluffy, as if to underline the mood of recovery that you breathe in the air. Few geometric rigor (typical of even cuts), many fluid movements (prerogative of frayed cuts).
Haircut Trends 2021
In 2021 haircuts a mix of creativity, technical skill in the use of scissors and practicality in management wins. The hair look that will be the most fashionable is the medium cut, the king of easy-to-manage hair. It looks good on everyone, dries relatively quickly, and just as quickly lends itself to various hairstyles. From “medium-short” to “medium-long” the step is wide, as are the cuts proposed lower, which at times caress the neck, others stop at the chin, still others stop at the collarbones. All the trendy cuts they embrace the concept of lightness, as they give the illusion of hair that defies the force of gravity.
Medium cut, the first in the standings
The long bob (also called lob) is the absolute protagonist of the 2021 haircuts. A cut that is like a filler for the face, since it immediately restores youth. In the version natural smooth perfectly interprets its contemporaneity, and enhances the chromatic notes wisely mixed in effects. In the photo, a look of Company of Beauty.
The shag is back in fashion
From the English “tousled hair”, the shag is the scaled and disheveled cut with a grunge allure that was popular in the seventies among rock singers. It is an ideal cut for those with wavy hair and little time available, and especially for those who love the messy look but with style. Plus, it’s super easy to manage. In the photo, a proposal by Cotril.
Below, a short version of the hyper scaled shag proposed by Framesi. The “scratches” of blue-violet make the cut even more gritty.
From Aveda (in the photo below), the shag cut is softened thanks to the full effect of the hair that gives softness to the look. The upward fired spikes and outward add a touch of romance.
Haircuts 2021: the bob
The new year’s helmet is reinvented, and precisely it rides the trend of softness that sees the fluidity of the lines against the geometric rigor in the foreground. The yokes follow the perimeter of the head without giving up some stylistic flashes that add character. Below, a proposal by TONI & GUY.
Wella Art Hair Studios interpreate the helmet by deliberately deconstructing the classic clean lines with a game of points chiseled to the millimeter. The delicate chrome in slight contrast highlights the studied symmetry of the cut.
From EVOS the yoke becomes even more fluffy, thanks to the wave styling that gives a bubbly allure. Perfect for those looking for movement in their hair.

Gradient and scaled carrè? Axenia proposes a super flared cut that owes its rock look to the flaming color! Ideal for those with a thick hair fiber that needs to be thinned.
The short cuts to focus on in 2021
In the new year, short hair will be worn with a refined disorder that enhances the spontaneity of the lines. In practice, it means untangling the tufts freely, without following a precise idea of structure or even less rigorous. Space for total creativity, therefore. In the photo below, a short cut of proposed by Kemon.
Sebastian interprets the short cut giving it a rock soul. The strong point is the pompadour-style cotton tuft which is associated with the grit of the side cut, the side shave. A perfect look for a woman who expresses herself with decisive choices, ready for the toughest challenges, even through her hair!
The medium-long hair of 2021
The medium-length cuts of 2021 are effervescent thanks to the multidimensionality games created through coloring. Also in this case the lines are soft and fluffy, made possible by new cutting techniques. This is the “finger cut”, a technique that overturns proportions and lengths, but maintains the volume and fullness of the shapes without ever emptying them.

Even hair, just scaled
If the strongest trend in 2021 haircuts is climbing in all its forms, it cannot be missing slight scaling, the one just mentioned that serves to file any possible excess edges. In some cases it is not even noticeable, but its beauty is just that: to soften the geometric shapes. Below a look of Framesi.
