1. The Pixie Mod Hairstyle
The pixie is a mod hairstyle fit for the modern babe. Boyish yet chic, this no frills style is a favorite of pop stars and celebrities alike. Pair it will boldly outlined eyeliner if you want to go all in on the mod trend, and make sure to use a bit of hair wax to keep your style in plaice. Use the viral Bed Head by TIGI Wax Stick to slick down your strands.
2. The Banded Bouffant
Elegant and feminine, the banded bouffant is synonymous with all things mod. A thick black headband breaks up the carefully crafted bouffant for a classic mod style. Favored both by First Ladies and actresses, this mod style is infused with elegance and class.
3. The Half Updo
The half updo is the epitome of mod chic style. It offers the practicality of an updo and the sensual energy that comes along with wearing all of your hair down. Give the classic half updo a modern twist by slicking the top portion of your hair back!
4. Chic and Girly
Mod hairstyles are famously known for how they are accessorized. Headbands, headscarves, bows, and flowers all decorate these classic mod styles. This style features an oversized bow and loose textured waves. Pair it with a dramatic wash of dark eye shadow for a sexy and sultry style. Recreate the textured tresses featured above with TRESemmé One Step 5-in-1 Texture Mist.
5. The Undone Updo
Speaking of sultry, a collection of mod hairstyles would not be complete without an intentionally disheveled style. Sweep your bangs to the side and pull your hair back into a half updo. Use bobby pins to secure the look in a messy yet chic half updo.
