Hairstyles refer to the way hair is cut, styled, and arranged. They can vary widely based on cultural influences, personal preferences, and current fashion trends. Common styles include braids, ponytails, bobs, and updos. Each hairstyle can convey different messages about a person's identity or mood and can be adapted for various occasions, from casual to formal. Different hair types, such as straight, wavy, or curly, can affect how a hairstyle looks and holds. Tools like hairdryers, straighteners, and curling irons are often used to achieve specific styles. Additionally, hair accessories like clips and bands can enhance or complement a chosen hairstyle.
