Women's haircuts 2027: what is coming and what stays

The short answer: women's haircuts in 2027 continue the soft direction of 2026, with three changes showing up in the first reports: the bob is getting shorter towards the micro bob, layers take on more 1970s volume, and bangs grow longer and fall lightly over the eyes. At B&B Elegance a haircut costs 15 €, wash included.

One honest note first. There are no full 2027 trend reports yet. What exists are the autumn and winter 2026/2027 collections and early predictions from stylists. So this post has two parts: what is known now, and what carries over from this year.

Haircut trends 2027: what the early reports say

The German hairdressers' association, ZV Friseurhandwerk, publishes a trend collection twice a year. Its autumn and winter 2026/2027 collection is built around the night and includes a soft cut with long pieces falling over the forehead, big 1970s waves with volume, and a sleek look with the hair brushed back. English language magazines describe the same ideas in other words: cuts that grow out well, look fine when air dried, and frame the face.

From all of this, the cuts you are most likely to see in 2027 are:

• The micro bob, a short blunt bob that ends near the ears or at the chin.
• Volume layers, with lift on top and movement at the sides, like photos from the 1970s.
• Shadow bangs, longer and thinner than classic bangs, falling just over the eyes, seen as the next step after curtain bangs.
• Short cuts with attitude, such as the mixie, a pixie and mullet hybrid that the German association put at the centre of its spring 2026 collection.

These are early directions, not rules. Some of them will stay on the runway and never reach the streets of Pristina.

What carries over from 2026 and what changes

Most of the cuts we covered in women's haircuts 2026 are not going anywhere. What changes is mainly the length and where the volume sits.

The bob in 2027: micro bob or lob

A micro bob looks clean and modern, but it needs hair that falls straight and a refresh roughly every six weeks. It suits straight hair of medium density. If your hair is fine, a slightly longer blunt bob holds volume better, as we explain in our guide to fine hair and volume. The shoulder length lob is still the most practical choice if you tie your hair up for work.

For ideas on styling a bob and other short cuts at home, for events and for weddings, read our post on short hair styles.

Volume layers: who they suit

1970s style layers work best on thick hair and hair with a natural wave, because the layers take out weight and let the hair move. On very fine hair, too many layers make the ends look sparse, and a few pieces around the face are enough. This cut needs a little round brush blow-drying to look like the photo, unlike a blunt bob.

Bangs that fall over the eyes

Shadow bangs are longer and thinner than classic bangs. They fall lightly over the brows and part on their own. They are an easy first step if you have never had bangs, because they grow out without much trouble. If you have a cowlick at the front, we check it in the salon before cutting.

Haircuts for young women and teens

For students and girls getting ready for prom, the most requested cuts are the ones that take no time in the morning: a lob with a few layers, long face framing layers and light bangs.

How to choose your 2027 cut

Your face shape guides the length and where the volume sits. A round face benefits from length below the chin, a long face from volume at the sides. The full advice is in our guide to hairstyles for your face shape.

Besire, who has been cutting hair for more than 20 years, also looks at two things a photo does not show: how your hair grows and how much time you have in the morning. If a 2027 cut will not hold on your hair, she tells you before she starts.

How much a haircut costs in 2027

A haircut costs 15 € and includes a talk about the shape, a wash and the cut. If you want to leave with styled hair, a straight blow-dry starts from 10 € and a natural blow-dry from 15 €. Everything is on our haircut and blow-dry page.
