HAIR TREND #1: BOLD BLUNT BOB HAIRCUT WITH MICRO-BANGS

Hair Inspiration / transformation #1: Designed by Associate Director of Chez Vous, Readen Chia | Blunt Bob X Micro Bangs

What Is It?

Roughly-chopped bangs that sit an inch above the brows coupled with a blunt bob haircut.

This 2020, fitting-in is overrated. First popularized by Audrey Hepburn and Bettie Page in the 50s, Micro-bangs has been the go-to cut for any women who needs an extra added cool factor. Coupled with a blunt bob cut, you'll be the most memorable person in the room.

Perfect for women who have a disproportionately high forehead. Micro-bangs can "shorten" the height of our forehead, creating a balanced proportion and make our facial features look more 3D - just like this hair transformation done by Associate Director of Chez Vous, Readen Chia, here.

HAIR TREND #2: ROSE HAIR COLOUR (A.K.A SAKURA HAIR TREND)

Hair Inspiration / transformation #2: Designed by Associate Director of Chez Vous, Wai Kan | Shadow Roots with Rose Hair Colour + Haircut

What Is It?

A de-saturated red hair colour with lavender and pink undertones. Think of it as Red Hair Re-Invented 2020.

This romantic hair colour trend flatters most Asian skin tones, making it an excellent choice for anyone who wants to undergo a brand-new hair makeover in 2020. Using a Pink Depositing Shampoo Daily, this Rose Hair Colour will fade to everyone's favourite Pastel Pink shade over time. Now, that's what we call "killing two birds with one stone".

A lifesaver for women with sallow skin tone. This gorgeous hair colour reflects a natural blush to our skin while its lavender undertones counteract the yellow pigments on our face. Hello, Brighter Skin!

HAIR TREND #3: BIG C-CURVED FRINGE

Hair Inspiration / transformation #3: Designed by Associate Director of Chez Vous HideAway Concept Salon, Eddy Lau | Haircut + Colour + Big C Fringe Perm

What Is It?

A long, face-framing bangs that sort of cascade down one's cheek at a C-curved angle - usually created via a perm or blow-styling service.

Despite how "Korean" or Hallyu we find them now, big C-curved fringe is more retro than we think. Such fringe is a modern twist on Brigitte Bardot bangs, and the Koreans love to have it lightweight, texturized and layered. But be warned, such wispy fringe will tend to look frizzy in Singapore's humid environment. Also, we tend to sweat in this hot weather of ours, causing this sort of fringe to stick on our face, looking greasy and unkempt.

Instead, opt for a less-layered big C-Curve fringe like how Eddy created for his model here, along with a big-C-fringe perm to boost the hair volume that everyone so desires.

Many women love to tie up their hair - it's easy and fuss-free. But simply tying our hair up can be boring at times. Instead, go for a low ponytail coupled with a Big C-Curved Fringe. You'll look effortlessly chic, be it in a suit, dress or gym wear!

HAIR TREND #4: ROSE LAVENDER HAIR

Hair Inspiration / transformation #4: Designed by Associate Director of Chez Vous, Wai Kan | Rose Lavender Hair Colour + Haircut

What Is It?

Rose Lavender is an ashier pink with a violet finish.

This dreamy hair colour trend is every girl's fantasy, given that it has every millennial's favourite colours - Ash, Pink and Lavender. Yet, it's every hairdresser's nightmare because the hair needs to be pre-lightened to a pale yellow. Otherwise, this shade won't show up too well. Moreover, the lavender hue doesn't last even with the right colour depositing shampoo. That said, you can't deny that this hair transformation done by Associate Director of Chez Vous, Wai Kan, isn't beautiful.

Specially for hair colour enthusiasts who need to check this hair colour off their list. And, for those who want to sport an Ash Blonde or Beige Shade, you may give this hair colour a try as it will fade to your desired colour in a week.

HAIR TREND #5: KOREAN-INSPIRED WAVY LOB X MOVEMENT PERM

Hair Inspiration / transformation #5: Designed by Salon Director of Chez Vous, Luis Wee | Colour + Movement Perm + Haircut

What Is It?

Movement perm, like the name suggests, creates airiness and movement in the hair.

This technique produces "lazy"-like waves rather than defined curls - giving the wearer an effortless laid-back vibe. Coupled with a Lob (Long Bob) haircut and curtain fringe, this hairstyle was voted as one of the top memorable first-date hairstyles in Seoul. This poll result gives others an impression that such hairstyles are suited only for young girls. But that's not true. This hairstyle works for middle-aged women as well, giving the wearer a youthful yet elegant look - just like this makeover done by Salon Director, Luis Wee.

This hairstyle works best for those who want to achieve a girl-next-door look along with greater hair volume.

HAIR TREND #6: YELLOW IS THE NEW BLACK

Hair Inspiration / transformation #6: Designed by Senior Technician of Chez Vous, Charles Chong | Highlighter Yellow + Haircut

What Is It?

Highlighter Yellow is popping up on Instagram feeds everywhere - surprisingly!

Bright, sunny and unapologetic yellow is said to represent the sprightly optimism of that generation born between the mid- '90s and early '00s. Initially, we thought it is going to be a colour that's impossible to pull-off. And we were wrong! This hue is surprisingly wearable (and stunning) - if you dare! Just look at this makeover done by senior technician, Charles, for his model, Elaine

Anyone who loves trying colourful hair while wanting it to last for a very long time! It's a statement more than anything.

HAIR TREND #7: ONE-LENGTH WAVE PERM

Hair Inspiration / transformation #7: Designed by Associate Director of Chez Vous HideAway Concept Salon, Shawn Chia | One-length Wave Perm + Colour + Haircut

What Is It?

Minimal layering coupled with movement perm to create the look of a heavy bottom hairstyle.

One-length wave perm tends to create a more grunge and edgy image compared to layered perm. It gives the wearer a little more "attitude" and "character", in a good way. Trivial: one can also opt to Rebond (chemically straighten) the middle part of the hair for greater manageability in this humid weather of ours.

This Hairstyle Idea is Best Suited For?

One-length wave perm is much easier to style and maintain back home in comparison to other perms. Thus, it's great for women who like a fuss-free perm hairstyle.

Associate Director of Chez Vous: HideAway, Shawn Chia, personally feels that such heavy bottom hairstyles are better suited for women with slender shoulders and body frame. As it can have a plumping effect, especially on women who have broader and fuller shoulders.

HAIR TREND #8: ROSE PEACH HAIR

Hair Inspiration / transformation #8: Designed by Chief Director of Chez Vous, Serene Tan | Rose Peach Hair Colour + Haircut

What Is It?

Think of it as a crossbreed between Living Coral and Rose Gold.

2020 just re-confirms the fact that Rose Gold Never Dies! It merely just re-invents itself into other forms, and there's still no sign of it slowing down. This year, Rose Peach will be one shade we'll frequently see on various K-Pop idols and girl group members. Stay tuned for it!

Like any orange-tinted hair colours, it will look better on women who wear make-up daily, to avoid being overpowered by this hair shade.

HAIR TREND #9: KOREAN-INSPIRED LONG LAYERED PERM

Hair Inspiration / transformation #8: Designed by Associate Director of Chez Vous HideAway Concept Salon, Oscar Lee | Long Layered Perm + Haircut

What Is It?

Long hair layering with movement perm to create a more feminine image in contrast to one-length perm. 

In recent years, the trend in Asia has moved from Victoria's Secret heavily-sculpted and overly coiffed curls to permed styles that are more natural and casual. 

This Hairstyle Idea is Best Suited For?

Long Layered Perm is best suited for women with long and rectangular face shape. As, the long layers and waves will help soften out the jawline. This gives the illusion of a less-angular face structure - just like this hair transformation done by Associate Director of Chez Vous: HideAway, Oscar Lee, for his model above. 

HAIR TREND #10: BACK TO BLONDE

Hair Inspiration / transformation #10: Designed by Associate Director of Chez Vous HideAway Concept Salon, Shawn Chia | Blonde Highlights + Haircut

What Is It?

Goodbye brunette, hello "natural" blonde hair - again. This season is back to neutral blondes, nothing too warm (obviously) nor ash.

Brunette Hair Trend was raging throughout 2019. Think Chocolate Cake Hair, Bronde Balayage, and Cold Brew Brown. However, many Caucasian women have reverted to blonde by the end of 2019. One of the main reasons is that darker hair colour frames the face and brings more attention to it, which sometimes highlight too much on our flaws and imperfections.

Don't believe? Take a look at the two images below. Which frame directs more attention to the women in the picture - dark or light?
