Edgy hairstyles embrace crisp lines, undercuts, and vibrant hues. If you wish to express your bold side, then these hairstyles and colors are perfect for you!
#1: Deep Dark Tresses with Fishtail Braids
Anyone can definitely replicate this stylish festive look! Adorable loosely braided pigtails like this complement even the most basic black hair and still add edge and intrigue to the entire style.
#2: Bold Purple and Green Undercut
If I had to put a name to this style I would call it “Chic Edge”. Even though the colors are a little unorthodox, I believe that if the hair is done well and it’s styled well, there is no reason why having a color in your hair that is not a “natural” hair color should be deemed unprofessional. With the right attire and the right makeup, you can easily take this look from everyday wear to a night out. It’s all about what you pair with it that can give the look its edge or its sophistication.
#3: Bright and Bold Yellow
This look is playful, striking, and distinct. It’s certainly a “bright and bold yellow” hair color. Not many can pull off yellow hair. Women desiring this hue should be aware that their hair must first be lightened to a pale yellow and undergo several types of reconstructing and conditioning treatments before applying the creative color.
#4: Trendy Color Blocked Long Hair
The combination of length and layers in this long hairstyle offers remarkable dimension and flow. By integrating longer lengths, this style promotes natural texture and bounce, making it ideal for women with wavy or curly hair.
#5: Stunning Dual-Tone Mid-Length Hair
If you’re bold and always ahead of the style curve, consider opting for a dual color. This look is not suited for those who aren’t ready for frequent salon visits. Be sure to inquire about the essential at-home products to maintain the vibrancy of this color!
#6: Vibrant Stripe Gum
My favorite aspect about this shade in particular is that it is on a male client of mine. For years the beauty industry has shamed men and women for stepping outside the norm when it comes to hair color. This hue has significantly boosted the confidence of this client. To have someone leave who is utterly happy and has the courage to embrace a color so bright, warm, and vibrant such as this makes me feel altruistic and accomplished.
#7: Profound Side Part
Perfect for round or oval facial shapes, this parting technique effectively creates an illusion of length and balance. It also allows you to showcase your layered hairstyle and highlight the nuances of your latest fashion color through this look.
#8: Chic Two-Toned Medium-Length Hairstyle
Choose a chic two-toned medium-length hairstyle that’s guaranteed to capture attention. This striking blend of deep brunette and platinum blonde creates an outstanding high-fashion hair color aesthetic. The upkeep is relatively demanding, requiring a touch-up every 4 to 6 weeks to sustain the vibrant blonde appearance. Utilize a purple shampoo at home to ensure that your blonde remains bright and beautiful until your next salon appointment.
#9: Vibrant Tie Dye Hairstyle
Discover this stylish tie-dye hairstyle! To maintain the vibrancy of your fashion-colored locks, steer clear of washing your hair in hot water. This will help prevent your color from fading too soon.
#10: Stylish Undercut Trends
This hairstyle is daring, trendy, and certainly a showstopper! I love how it allows for a quick transformation by simply putting the hair up in a bun. You can’t see the design as soon as the hair is released!
#11: Stunning Top Bun
It might seem challenging to create this beautiful top bun, but in reality anyone can achieve it! This style works wonderfully on long hair and is ideal for achieving lovely volume.
#12: Bold & Daring Pink Pastel Pixie
I would describe this look as a very avant-garde, “express your individuality” style. My favorite part about it is how you can’t miss this person when you pass them. It is bold and daring. If you are someone who enjoys variety in your hairstyle and you appreciate tousled looks as much as polished, this style could be a great fit for you. This cut would be ideal for straight, wavy, curly, or fine to medium hair types. This look would be perfect for diamond, heart, oval, round, or square face shapes.
#13: Contemporary French Bob
This chic haircut is a Mod Bob with a straight across fringe. What I adore most about this is that you can style it to be sleek, enigmatic, fun, and whimsical (like in the photo). This particular client cut off about 8 inches of outgrown color, and with a proper cut, it appears as though she just received fresh balayage highlights.
#14: Vibrant Yellow Mohawk
A vibrant yellow mohawk isn’t for the timid, it’s for women who want to showcase their edgy, rocker spirit. Dyeing your hair a vibrant yellow is a daring choice and will enhance your overall look. Remember, colors like this require some maintenance, so be sure you have the resources and time to sustain this hair color and style. Ensure you visit a stylist or barber that is skilled in crafting a tapered, disconnected mohawk.
#15: Attention-Grabbing Fauxhawk
Unleash your imagination and make it a reality with this stunning fohawk! It’s one of the most daring haircuts you’ll encounter here! A striking work of art that only those who are bold and self-assured can truly pull off this unique hairstyle.
#16: Chic Asymmetrical Bob
I would describe this look as a chic asymmetrical bob featuring a shaved side. The first thing I would tell a guest interested in this haircut is that the haircut is a commitment. Contrary to popular belief, chic short hairstyles are actually more maintenance than long hair! A client should come in to get edged up every two weeks to keep it looking clean, especially with a shaved side, and come in for regular haircuts every 4 to 6 weeks.
#17: The Boldest Short Crop
A short crop is one of the boldest styles you can try. You’ll need frequent haircuts but it will all be worth it when you barely have to do anything to your hair every morning. Massage a dime-sized dollop of Redken Aerate allover for volume and texture.
#18: Elevated Bun with a Unique Flair
Braids on a top knot offer an intriguing style to showcase for any event. It highlights your lovely facial features and enhances your overall appearance, providing a graceful and vibrant look.
#19: Elegant Jet Black Retro Curls
This particular hairstyle is among my favorites. It’s a beautifully boho, retro-inspired look. You can wear it as a casual hairstyle or pair it with a hair-tie or bandana to enhance that edgy retro vibe. It suits those with long hair of medium to thick density that isn’t overly layered. Her hair features a deep dark tint, almost reminiscent of chocolate brown, which complements her skin tone beautifully. Nevertheless, lighter shades or highlighted hair also pair nicely with this style.
#20: Stylish Long Shag with Micro Bangs
This haircut features a tousled lived-in shag. The best aspect of this cut is that it offers the model a trendy appearance without the need for extensive styling.
#21: Contemporary Mohawk with Shaved Sides
A Mohawk hairstyle featuring shaved sides offers a bold, artistic flair. If you opt for this hairstyle, be sure to plan regular salon visits to keep its polished appearance.
#22: Bold Long Hair with a Braided Ponytail
Another effortlessly stylish look, this hairdo can be achieved simply by creating a loose fishtail and allowing your long playful side fringe to flow freely. It pairs wonderfully with long balayaged hair that adds depth to the strands.
#23: Long Hair with Undercut and Shaved Sides
Consider an undercut with shaved sides for long hair if you’re looking for a bold change. This style is ideal for those with thick hair since they often won’t notice the loss. If you choose to shave any section of your head, be prepared for a 3-6 week maintenance schedule to keep it tidy.
#24: Innovative Asymmetric Hairstyle
Consider an asymmetrical haircut if you prefer an edgy look while maintaining some length. Aim to avoid excessive styling with this hairstyle, as the goal is to achieve a natural, lived-in appearance.
#25: Anime-Inspired Styles
I drew inspiration from Anime for this look, and I believe it’s a bold hairstyle. What I appreciate most about this look is that it truly challenges people’s perceptions. Some adore it, others dislike it, and some eventually come to appreciate it.
#26: Modernized Beehive Style
I admire the way women used to elegantly dress for their daily activities. My aim for this look was to blend hair color and attire to create a modern take on a vintage silhouette, providing a fresh interpretation of that 1950’s classic glamour. The highlight of this style is how the striking hair color accentuates the dramatic shape.
#27: Rainbow Braids
Ponytail braids are quite popular, but when you enhance them with these vibrant pastel colors, you’ll absolutely turn heads with a stylish and eye-catching look!
#28: Textured Shag Mullet Featuring a Vibrant Orange Skunk Stripe
The textured shag mullet with an orange skunk stripe is an eye-catching hairstyle. It features layered textures that introduce movement and volume to your hair. The layers are intended to enhance volume and showcase your hair’s natural texture, making it more lively and intriguing. The bold orange stripe in this hairstyle is striking and daring. This hairstyle is ideal for those with fine or thin hair as it creates the appearance of thicker strands. To style, start with damp hair and apply a volumizing mousse for additional body and definition. Utilize a blow dryer with a diffuser attachment to amplify your hair’s natural texture while preserving its shape. Conclude by gently tousling your hair with your fingers for a piecey and effortless finish.
#29: Effortless Long Beachy Waves
I really adore this style just for the pure fact that it was so daring yet appeared so effortless. I decided to do part balayage and part foliage. I toned it with the Shades EQ line. Now, cut-wise, we didn’t do much because she likes her hair long so I just trimmed up her ends and did layers, nothing extravagant.
#30: Vibrant Purple Afro
This is an eye-catching purple afro hairstyle with messy kinky curls. I aimed for a look reminiscent of a 5-day old twist out. The standout feature of this style is its size, boldness, and vibrancy. I cut and styled it to elegantly frame my face and enhance my facial features.
#31: Stylishly Bold Mid-Length Undercut
Ask for a stylishly bold mid-length undercut. A trendy two-tone color on a super textured lob will help you achieve a contemporary style. This cut is perfect if you have thick hair. I do not suggest an undercut for those with thin hair desiring a longer bob. The ends may have a ragged look. However, for short bobs, an undercut could be advantageous.
#32: Chic Messy Pixie with Extended Side Bangs
Try a trendy pastel pixie with an undercut. It’s a stylish and appealing short hairstyle, ideal for the busy girl!
#33: Medium-Length Vibrant Rainbow Hair with Shaved Patterns
If you are looking for something unique, try a medium-length vibrant rainbow hairstyle with shaved patterns. You’ll definitely want to find a hair artist that specializes in these fashionable styles because they can be tricky to achieve. Also, keep in mind the bright colors fade quickly and can require upkeep. So do your research and find the right stylist to assist you on this adventure.
#34: Stylishly Shaggy Mid-Length Cut for Mature Women
There are countless interpretations of the shag hairstyle today. I work with many creative individuals and a select group of musicians at the moment. This particular shag on Ame is a disconnected style. Given that she has finer hair on the sides and back, I need to be careful not to remove too much length or layering. She’s ever so slightly top heavy.
#35: Bold Platinum Blonde Highlights & Reddish Tips
This style is daring and trendsetting. It’s focused on adaptability and depth. My favorite aspect of this style is the contrast. It’s smooth and polished around the face, with abundant layers and textures composing the back. This style is for the adventurous client in search of the ideal alternative hairstyle.
#36 Bold Black Hair Featuring Red and Orange Highlights
Combining black hair with vibrant red and orange highlights will introduce a striking element to any hairstyle. The facial sections of bright color create a captivating contrast against the dark hair, offering a distinctive appearance. The highlighted black hairstyle is perfect for women wanting to make a bold fashion statement. By incorporating these daring highlights, your hair will gain richness and generate an energetic style. Be sure to use color-safe products and minimize heat styling to preserve color vibrancy. Furthermore, regular coloring may be necessary to keep the highlights looking fresh and vivid.
#37: Stylish Indie Razor Haircut
This is a stylish, indie, razor haircut with blowout style using a flat iron. The color features a subtle blend ombré with an aquamarine mix. I love that it appears effortless!
#38: Asymmetrical Cut in Teal and Black
This look embodies power, strength, and fierceness, while also retaining femininity. She opted for one side cut short and the other longer, gracefully grazing her shoulder, which immediately caught my eye. I refined the existing cut and incorporated an angle with graduation for added fullness on the longer side. Her face shape was perfect for this style.
#39 Chic Short Undercut Bob
An elegant approach to managing high-maintenance colors is to apply them on shorter hair! This specific style needs less time for styling while still keeping you looking fashionable and polished at all times.
#40: Choppy Bob with Jaw-Length Edginess
A choppy bob that hits at the jawline is best paired with a balayage to enhance dimension.
#41: Sleek Emerald Green Short Edgy Hairstyle
I would call this a sleek emerald green pixie. I love how the hue is jewel toned and rich green is definitely one of the more challenging colors to achieve if you don’t get the vibrancy right. The green is perfect for anyone with a funky style or bold character. Anticipate turning heads and being approached left and right when you are flaunting any fun color in your hair!
#42: Extended Asymmetrical Hairstyle
I had an amazing time creating this cut and color. I adore the asymmetrical hairstyle as it truly stands out and deviates from what’s considered “normal.” The cut looks incredibly cute whether worn straight or curled!
#43: Aquamarine Trendy Cut
Trendy cuts have limitless options. Your stylist must be very precise to achieve such an asymmetrical and structured cut. Aquamarine coloring enhances the appearance.
#44: Edgy Shoulder-Length Hair in Dark Green
This look is undeniably unique and funky! The vibrant vibes make it difficult to choose whether to admire the haircut or the color first. The hue is captivating as it transitions into a multi-dimensional mossy green, which happens to be my favorite aspect of the entire style.
#45: Edgy Platinum Punk Rock Mullet
If you’re after a trendsetting cut, consider a platinum mullet. This style ensures you make an impression in any setting. To achieve the perfect mullet, utilize plenty of texture paste and your fingers. While styling, embrace the fun and tousle those locks.
#46: Bold Asymmetrical Pixie
I would describe this look as a daring hairstyle twist on a pixie cut. It’s incredibly versatile as well! In this photo, we have it smoothed out with some texture on top, but you can also add a playful loose wave or even blow it out and comb it back for a stylish pompadour! You can change the part or wear it flat and polished. The options are endless!
