I am seriously getting sick of my hair. Since chopping off a significant amount, it's getting to that weird in-between stage and I just cannot deal with it. I'm looking forward to fall: it's a new season and so I think another change is totally justified.

Here are 5 hairstyle trends and ideas I'm liking:

Retro Meets Modern 


We saw some throwback styles on the runway for fall 2013. What stood out about these vintage inspired looks is that they still feel fresh and modern thanks to a less-than-polished finish. 

Bottega Veneta (top right) drew inspiration from the 40's and 70's to create their big, loose curled style, while Nina Ricci (bottom right) did an oversized ballerina bun. Lastly, Lowe (left) showed an unpolished bouffant.

Braids 


Braids aren't going anywhere this season and though I'm a bit of an amateur in this area, I'm thrilled because they look gorgeous and easily transition between formal and casual. 

A simple, semi hidden braid a la Rachel Zoe (left) is easy to do and adds more interest to your everyday hair. Rodarte gave us boho braids with a half up-do and bun (lower right). Lastly, fishtail braids are deceptively easy (just takes a little practice), but updated for fall 2013 in a low chignon (upper right).

Pixies, Bobs and Lobs


First Miley, then Anne, then Queen Bee and now Coco Rocha, celebs are loving shorter cuts. If you aren't quite brave enough to try a pixie, work a bob or lob. 

The 'New' Ombre

Ombre is proving to be a longer-lived trend than initially expected. So what's the new 'it' colour for 2013? If popular celebs and trend-setting designers are any indication, we're looking at a more subtle approach to the ombre with natural colours. On the flip-side, punk influences from the runway encourage us to not shy away from playing with deeper colours. Save your pastels for spring! 

Slicked Back
 

Minimalist with some grunge aspects, this is all about effortless style and ease. 

Which of these looks will you try for fall?
