The Retro Hair Flip Trend: 2020’s Most Fashionable Hairstyle Yet
We know you’ve seen it all over your social media accounts; it’s flirty but elegant, fun but glamorous; it’s the oh-so-chic "flip hairstyle" or simply known as flipped-out ends. Think smooth, voluminous hair that dramatically flips out at the ends giving your hair a powerful yet playful bounce.
From Kim K’s flipped out half-up to Kylie Jenner’s flipped out bob, the style can be recreated in bobs, ponies, or even the most elegant updos. The style is literally when the ends have been flipped out (usually using a round brush when blow-drying, or a curling iron/ roller on dry hair.
60s fashion has been making a comeback since 2019; many designers from London Fashion Week took homage from the 60s in their Autumn/ Winter 2020 collections. Our fav, being the flipped-out hair trend. Dare we say this is probably one of the most Instagrammable hairstyles right now. Our fav celebs have long jumped on the bandwagon, and it’s time we took some notes!
Taking inspiration from the 60s (and 90s), the flipped-out ends look has been taking over by storm (plus it makes the perfect canva for all the barrettes and headbands we’re currently swooning over.
And with so much versatility, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to hairstyles. It’s very easy to achieve, though using some heat. You’ll need a blow dryer and blow dry as you normally would with a barrel brush a large-barrel curling iron. If using a normal barrel brush and a blow dryer, simply roll the brush towards the end of the hair. Roll it backwards to create the flip. Note that the more you roll the more the more you roll, the more dramatic the flip.
If you are using a curling iron, add hairspray then curl your hair outwards in parts. Use the tong to create the outward flips then allow the hair to cool completely before further styling. When the hair is cool, pick up a round brush to volume and texture.
