Why Now’s the Perfect Time to Refresh Your Shape
As the leaves begin to turn and the chill returns to the air, it’s not just your wardrobe that deserves a seasonal refresh—your haircut does too. Autumn is the ideal time to reshape, revive, and restyle your hair, giving you a fresh new look that frames your face, works with your cosy layers, and boosts your confidence. At ICONIC Hairdressing, we believe a great haircut is one of the most transformative ways to update your style and elevate your everyday look.
🍁 Why Autumn Is the Season for a Hair Makeover
After a summer of sun, salt, and humidity, your hair might be feeling a little flat, frazzled, or simply out of shape. Autumn brings a return to structure and routine, making it the ideal time to reshape your hair with intention. A seasonal trim or total restyle can:
-
Remove dry, sun-damaged ends
-
Add bounce and shape where it’s been lost
-
Refresh your overall appearance
-
Make styling with scarves and hats easier
Whether you’re looking to chop it all off or simply add definition, autumn is the time to do it.
✂️ Face-Framing Layers: The Ultimate Autumn Update
Face-framing layers are flattering on all face shapes and hair lengths. They add softness, movement, and a touch of drama without a drastic change.
Benefits of face-framing layers include:
-
Accentuating cheekbones and jawlines
-
Opening up the face and adding lift
-
Creating visual interest when hair is tied back or under a hat
-
Blending effortlessly with fringes or curtain bangs
For finer hair, face-framing layers add dimension and a sense of volume. For thicker hair, they help reduce weight and add flow.
💇♀️ Fringe Forecast: Autumn’s Hottest Bangs Trends
Thinking of a fringe? You’re not alone. Fringes are back in a big way this season, offering a versatile way to switch up your look without a full cut.
Top fringe trends for autumn:
Curtain Bangs – Soft, parted bangs that blend into layers. Perfect for framing the face and easy to grow out.

If you’re unsure which fringe suits you, our expert stylists at ICONIC Hairdressing will guide you based on your hair type, face shape, and maintenance preferences.
🧣 Haircuts That Work With Scarves, Coats & Layers
As you start layering up with cosy knits, scarves, and coats, your hairstyle should complement—not compete with—your autumn wardrobe. The goal? Styles that retain their shape, resist flattening under hats, and still look polished once the layers come off.
Styles we love for autumn:
Choppy Bobs – Textured, chin- or shoulder-length styles that sit perfectly above scarf lines.

Lobs (Long Bobs) – A modern classic that works beautifully with high collars and turtlenecks.

Add volume at the crown and around the face to balance bulkier clothes and prevent your style from feeling overwhelmed.
💡 Our Top Tips for Autumn Hair Styling
- Boost Volume: Use volumising mousses or sprays at the roots to keep hair full through the day.
- Blow-Dry Upside Down: A stylist secret for extra lift, especially at the roots.
- Switch to Richer Products: Creamier shampoos, masks, and leave-ins help hydrate as temperatures drop.
- Style with Purpose: A little root lift spray or texturising powder goes a long way in scarf season.
