12 Late Summer Haircut Trends That Aren’t The Shag Or Curtain Bangs

We may only be halfway through August but it's already been an amazing year for hair. When salons reopened their doors, we flooded appointment books with all manner of Instagram-worthy styles, from the wolf cut and the shag to curtain bangs and modern mullets.

So whether you're obsessed with the idea of a brand-new fringe, want to chop a whole lot off or simply want to refresh your current style, scroll ahead for the haircut trends everyone will be asking for next.
