2027 Long Hair Trends - New Trending Long Hairstyles for Women and Men 2027

Regardless of age or gender, anyone can choose the hair length and style that suits their preferences. The cut and texture are what matter most. What kind of long hairstyles can you choose from? You might find something worth trying among the 2027 long hair trends.

2027 Long Hair Trends & New Long Hairstyles for Women/Men

The Spring/Summer 2027 season introduces refreshing long-hair looks, including fashion-forward designs and daily styles. 

Undone Lived-In Texture 

This is the most accessible and pervasive trend for 2027 long hair. Defined by intentionally unpolished, relaxed styling, it features loose strands, natural flyaways, and organic texture that mimics naturally worn, lived-in hair. No tight styling or heavy product buildup is required. For women, it translates to loose braids, tousled waves, and half-up styles with soft stray hairs. For men, it evolves into shoulder-grazing tousled long hair with casual, romantic nonchalance. This trend highlights natural hair quality and personality, rather than rigid styling rules.

Sculptural Architectural Long Hair 

On the opposite end of the spectrum, sculptural long hair dominates high-fashion runways, focusing on sharp structure, clean lines, and deliberate shape. This trend includes sleek wet-look finishes, asymmetric silhouettes, and structured updo variations for long hair. It breaks the soft stereotype of long hair, creating a contrast between flowing length and rigid architectural design. This style is popular for formal occasions and editorial styling.

New Long Hair Innovations for 2027

Several emerging sub-trends redefine traditional long hair styling. The collar tuck technique, which tucks loose long hair into garment necklines, becomes a staple casual chic look. Extreme side parts replace conventional gentle side sweeps, creating dramatic diagonal facial framing. Hidden peekaboo color streaks, especially soft pink undertones, add subtle dimension without full-head dye jobs. Additionally, hybrid half-up styles emerge as the most versatile transitional look for all seasons.

2027 Top Trending & Popular Long Hairstyles for Women/Men 

These long hairstyles cover casual, elegant, edgy, and gender-neutral styles for both women and men.

1. Waist-Grazing Grey Locs 

Worn loose past the waist, this was one of the front-row looks that stayed in people's heads all season. The grey is grown rather than dyed, so it shifts on its own: softer silver across the crown and hairline, deepening into charcoal through the lower length. Every loc is rolled tight and sits clearly apart from the next, each one a different thickness, with a little natural frizz and ends left slightly uneven. It carries real weight and hangs in a heavy, unhurried drape, which is exactly why it needs almost nothing done to it. Keep the clothes simple and structured so the hair does the talking, and let a single strong frame or accessory close the look. 

2. Wet-Look Low Braid 

This long hairstyle is defined by a sleek, high-gloss "wet look" at the crown and nape, paired with a neat, low three-strand braid that maintains a lustrous sheen from root to tip—offering an aesthetic that is at once minimalist, polished, and understatedly luxurious. Suitable for the workplace, formal events, and daily commuting alike, the style does not require a specific hair length.

3. Undone Twin Loose Braids 

This bohemian-inspired style is effortlessly casual, characterized by a tousled center part and a pair of low, loose braids at the nape of the neck. It preserves the hair's natural texture and a few wispy strands while keeping the ends smooth and refined to avoid a messy look. Drawing inspiration from the minimalist aesthetic of desert road trips, the style allows for subtle asymmetry between the braids, highlighting the hair's unique texture and individual character.

4. Infinite Knot Half-Up Long Hair 

A romantic, lightweight half-up hairstyle that uses a simple loop knot at the nape while leaving all long hair loose and flowing outward. Finished with subtle dry texturizing spray to create wispy, airy strands, it easily gets neat structure and casual softness. Neither overly formal nor too messy, it works for dates, office days, and weekend gatherings.

5. Mermaid Waves with Bare-Faced Makeup 

These are the waves you get when the whole head is set, with an iron or a braid, and then brushed out until the pattern loosens. What's left runs as one continuous S from root to tip, with no obvious breaks or hard turns, hanging past the chest and moving with real weight. The finish leans dry and slightly matte rather than glossy, closer to hair that has just dried in sea air, holding a little natural frizz and plenty of volume. Best on full, medium-to-thick hair that can take a soft wave without collapsing.

6.  Maxi Curtain Fringe with Face-Framing Layers

The fringe behaves like a curtain rather than a block. It starts shortest in the middle and lengthens steadily toward the cheekbones, falling lowest there before melting into long layers. It parts softly, and the ends stay light enough to move with the head, grazing the brow bone and the top of the lashes without ever covering the eyes. Around the temples, extra layers give the sides a bit of weight; behind them, the rest of the hair drops into loose, almost accidental waves, the kind a round brush and a blow-dryer leave behind rather than an iron. A strawberry blonde that changes with the light keeps it from going flat.

7. Extreme Deep Side Part 

The part is the whole trick. Instead of a soft line sitting near the middle, it's pushed far across, starting close to the tail of the opposite eyebrow, and that single diagonal changes how the head reads. Hair falls in one long sweep to one side, so the face is framed at an angle rather than evenly, and the unevenness lands as attitude instead of a mess. Nothing else is required — no product, no tools, no extra layering. Plain hair worn loose simply looks considered. It works on any length past the shoulder and any texture.

8. Hidden Pink Peekaboo Streaks

This one keeps its color where you wouldn't expect it. Rather than coating the head, a few soft pink streaks sit under the top layer, so most of the time you see nothing at all. They surface only when the hair shifts or the part moves — a flash of pink between darker strands, then gone. With the base left natural and glossy, the effect reads as a quiet personal touch rather than a declaration. It's a way to wear colour without a full dye job or a long afternoon in the chair, and it fits everyday dressing as easily as a night out.

9. Sculptural Asymmetrical Long Hair 

Here the shape carries the look, not the texture. The cut runs in clean, deliberate lines, one side noticeably shorter than the other, with the lengths landing anywhere from the shoulder to the middle of the back. Nothing about it is soft or romantic: the point is the geometry, and the unevenness is planned rather than grown out. Worn straight, or with only the lightest wave, it holds a sharp silhouette without much effort. It belongs in editorials and dressed-up rooms where a plain long cut would disappear, and it suits people who keep their styling minimal and a little severe.

10. Airy Weightless Flowing Hair 

Everything here is about moving weight out of the way. Thin, careful layers are taken through the length so the hair can move on its own, lifting and swinging with each step rather than sitting flat. No oils, no spray, no heat — just clean hair and its own soft light, left to fall as it naturally does. Being light, it sits well beside sheer or loosely woven clothing, where a heavier head of hair would feel wrong. It never announces itself, and that's the appeal: worn daily, by anyone, for years.

11. Viking Braids (Warrior Braids)

One or two thin braids running back from the temples, left to blend into the rest of the hair, so the braid reads as structure rather than something added on. It needs real length—eight inches and up, and past the chin at minimum to braid securely—and works on straight, wavy, and curly hair. Mist it with a light leave-in before you start, or hair snaps as you weave. 

12. Man Bun (High or Low)

Still the most practical way to wear real length. Six to eight inches will do it, roughly shoulder length when the hair is down. Worn high on the crown, it reads polished; sat low at the nape, it reads off-duty. Tying it loose rather than tight matters, because constant tension is what damages a hairline over time, and wrapping one small strand around the base hides the elastic. The wrapped, high version is also called a top knot; the compact, higher-set one is a samurai bun.

Best Long Hairstyles for Women Over 50

The idea that long hair has to stop at fifty is long gone. In 2027, the emphasis sits on healthy texture, soft framing around the face, and cuts that ask little of you. These looks lean on natural elegance rather than chasing youth, softening the lines of the face and steering clear of anything stiff or overdone. Confidence and comfort count for more than novelty.

1. Face-Framing Layered Hair

The layers start at the cheekbone and run down to the ends, and that's what gives the style its shape. They bring movement to hair that has thinned with age and take the edge off a strong jaw or heavy cheeks by pulling the eye inward. Upkeep is simple — a light trim every few months keeps it neat — and day-to-day it needs almost nothing. Worn in a natural espresso brown or a soft auburn, it looks grown-up without trying.

2. Soft Loose Barrel Curls

These are wide, relaxed curls rather than the tight ringlets of a younger style, and the difference is the whole point. The size of the curl keeps the look calm and slightly formal, and because they sit light, thin or dry ends are disguised rather than exposed. The volume stays low, so the hair never feels heavy. It moves easily from an ordinary day to a dressed-up evening, and it fits the season's taste for hair that looks undone on purpose.

3. Natural Grey Layered Hair

Grey is being worn openly in 2027, and long layered grey is one of the ways it looks best. The layers matter more than usual: without them, long grey hair goes flat and dull, while with them it picks up depth and movement as it falls. Leaving the colour alone ends the cycle of root touch-ups for good. Worn loose, or lifted into a soft half-up, it stays easy and quietly refined.

4. Curtain Bangs with Long Layers

Curtain bangs split in the middle and sweep outward, and that shape is unusually kind to the face. The wispy sides soften forehead lines and balance the proportions of the face, while long layers underneath keep the ends moving and full. Straight, wavy, and lightly curly hair all take to it.

Best Hairstyles for Long Curly Hair

Long curls bring their own volume and texture, so the 2027 approach is to work with them rather than against. The focus falls on definition, on taming frizz, and on letting the natural curl do the work.

1. Free-Flowing Natural Curls

This is the most honest way to wear long curls, and the one the season keeps returning to. The hair is left alone — no irons, no forcing a shape — so the natural bounce and spiral stay intact. Getting the hydration and definition right is what kills the frizz and gives the curls their shape and layers. Loose waves and tight spirals alike take to it, and the curl itself becomes the decoration.

2. Soft High Curly Bun

A loose bun worn high, without pulling, is an easy way to lift long curls off the face. Gathering the hair this way keeps the curl's volume and texture at the base, so the shape stays soft instead of flat and severe. A few curls left loose around the face soften the outline.

3. Side-Swept Curly Long Hair

All the curls are gathered to one side at the nape and held with hairpins you can't see. The weight sits on one side of the head, giving the silhouette a little drama while still framing the face. Loosening the curl clusters as you go keeps the hair full and stops the curls from clumping. It's an easy way to dress up everyday curls, and it flatters almost any face.

4. Layered Curly Half Ponytail

Here the hair is split in two: the top half tied back loosely, the bottom left to fall. A small curl wrapped around the elastic hides the band and finishes the look. The layering matters most for thick long curls, which otherwise drag at the roots — worn this way, the natural bounce and movement last all day.

Best Hair Extensions for Long Hair

Every look above assumes there's already a decent amount of hair to work with, and that isn't true for everyone. It's the one thing advice alone can't fix, so it's worth naming the product that covers it rather than leaving the question hanging. Our Blue Band XR Brazilian virgin hair bundles run from 12 to 30 inches and come in various textures.

The pick here is the Blue Band XR Brazilian virgin hair in body wave, shade 1B#, 26 inches. The wave is what makes it fit this list: it falls smooth and open rather than tight, close to the mermaid waves and loose barrel curls further up, and it straightens back under heat if a sleeker finish is what you want. Shade 1B# is a natural off-black with a warm lean, the kind of deep dark that reads as inherited rather than freshly dyed, so it merges with most natural hair instead of sitting on it. The hair is 100% human, and the seam along the weft has been reinforced, which is the detail that matters once you start brushing: cheap bundles thin out there first. As with any human hair, the shine only holds if you wash it with something gentle and look after it properly.
