Singapore’s tropical climate is known for its humidity all year round but that will not stop us from slaying with these trendy Korean hairstyles for women!
To combat the Singapore heat, how about some short hairstyles to start with?
Pixie Cut
As seen on Actress Lee Joo Young from the K-drama series Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-Joo and Itaewon Class, the Pixie Cut is perfect for those who are afraid of Singapore’s heat!
Song Ji Hyo from the popular South Korean variety show, Running Man, was also seen chopping her long hair for a pixie cut!
90s Korean Bob
Whether it is sleek or curly, the 90s Korean Bob looks good with or without bangs! As seen by celebrities like Lisa from Blackpink and Jung Hoyeon from The Squid Game, this hairstyle can give a mature sophisticated or girl-next-door look!
Wolf Cut
As this haircut continues to trend in Korea, celebrities like Aiki (Kang Hye In) from The Street Fighter Woman can be seen serving girl boss vibes!
C-Curl and S-Curls
Many may be confused over the difference between C-Curl (C컬 펌) and S-Curl perm (S 컬펌) but it’s not that hard!
C-Curl perm (C컬 펌) are permed only at the ends of the hair either inwards or outwards to create a bouncy texture when the rest of the hair is straightened. This can be done on any hair length and is perfect for those who want a youthful look!
It is also possible to have a mixture of both curls to form more layers and texture to suit different face shapes!
Teddy Bear Hairstyle
The teddy bear hairstyle is also popular with bangs as it gives extra volume and shapes the face for a cute look. This is perfect for those who tend to have flat hair!
Hime Cut
There are a few variations of the Hime cut but the traditional Hime cut consists of two sidelocks up to the jawline with long straight hair and straight bangs across the forehead. This may seem like a weird hairstyle at first but this trend has been gaining popularity with Korean celebrities and TikTokers!
Bangs That Can Last
People who have a wider or longer forehead usually gravitate to having bangs for a smaller forehead illusion. However, it may be a little tough to maintain in this humid weather we face.
Remember when Lisa from Blackpink trended for her unmovable bangs? We obviously cannot not talk about it in this list! Perfect for any hair length, Lisa’s iconic thick bangs are able to withstand the humid weather we have with the use of hairspray. Say no more to messy untamed bangs!
Airy Bangs
Known as airy bangs, these bangs are one of the trendiest hairstyles in Korea! Starting out thin, the hair is trimmed to be longer at the sides to frame the face giving a softer look compared to Lisa’s bangs.
With our unpredictable weather, the airy bangs may be hard to keep up with as the wind and humidity may ruin the look! However, this can be fixed with a little spritz of hairspray just like the Lisa bangs.
Choppy Bangs
From simple to wacky hairstyles, these pretty Korean hairstyles for women suit different looks and Singapore’s humid weather! For males looking to try new hairstyles, here are 9 Korean Oppa Hairstyles That Singaporean Men Can Recreate!
