The thing about trends is that they always come back around. And we’re doing the work to inspire and predict those trends HERE and NOW.
Nostalgia and Fauxstalgia are real.
Nostalgia has us yearning for a time in the past where we felt our happiest.
Fauxstalgia has us yearning for a time we weren’t alive to experience but feel in our core we were meant to live in that certain decade.
Shows like Daisy Jones & The Six and Pam & Tommy bring us back or take us to a time we wish we could experience (again or for the very first time).
We can’t go back in time (yet) but what we can do is bring forward inspiration from our favorite decades. And that’s exactly what we did.
So get ready for some ICONIC looks from past decades - Kashmir Extensions edition.
From the groovy 60s to the rolling 90s, we’ve taken hairstyle inspiration from decade icons and recreated them with Kashmir Extensions to show how these styles can be brought forward in 2023.
Let’s go way back to the 60s, where style EXPLODED.
60s Bouffant Hair Look
Style in the 60s was diverse to say the least. The decade where style opposites in extreme form coexisted. The sophisticated and traditional 50s met the bold, revolting new generation of the 60s. Some would describe the 60s as an explosion of style that was suppressed in the 50s.
Jackie Kennedy, Brigitte Bardot, and Sharon Tate defined the 1960s when it came to popular hair trends. The decade hairstyles grew more progressive as the years went on. From short hair in the early sixties to long hippie hair in the late sixties. Heavy volume was all the rage till the end of the decade introduced long smooth hair that transferred into the 70s.
More notably, the iconic Bouffant Hair which inspired Skarlett Salazar’s look here. Today, inspo from the 60s lives on in various hairstyles we wear today and have worn for decades.
70s Farrah Fawcett’s Feathered Hair Look
The 1970s is the decade where freedom rang when it came to style. This beauty revolution introduced the world to hairstyles they’ve never seen before and some we still wear today. One 70s icon who spearheaded this revolution was Farrah Fawcett with her infamous feather hair look.
This look defined the decade and is one that comes back into trend again and again. Most recently with popularity on TikTok. Middle parts, length and feathered bangs are all hairstyles we see trending today that were totally inspired by the 1970s. Kashmir artist, Emily Flam, pulls this look off effortlessly with the help of her Kashmir extensions.
80s Hair Band Look
Regardless of your style, high voltage volume was in. The 1980s saw the onset of big, voluminous locks on both men and women. Inspired by 80s band icons, Mötley Crüe, Poison and Vixen to name a few.
It was often in the form of long, curly hair. Inspired by heavy metal and appropriately-named "Hair Bands," huge hair was EVERYWHERE. Bigger hair was better.
And yet here we are, back in 2023 with the urge for more volume. Hair is getting bigger by the day and people are catching back onto that 80s vibe. New volume products from notable brands like Color Wow and beach waves bring us hints of this decade's hair moment and we can’t get enough. Raise those roots like Kiki Tobar has in this 80-inspired look.
90s Roller Set Look
Roller blades and hot rollers had a choke hold on us in the 90s and they’ve already made their way back. That big, bouncy Cindy Crawford inspired blow out had every woman in town leaving their house with a curler in their bangs to hold that volume as long as they possibly could.
The blowout was first introduced as a popular hairstyle in the 1960s and then brought back in the 90s. We’re back into volume and big curls that bounce. Hot curlers are now a staple in most trending hair tutorials and we understand why. Kashmir’s very own Elia Gal turns on her 90s supermodel with this look!
So there you have it.
Decade hairstyles still very much inspire our hair trends today making them…well, timeless.
Volume and length are two things Kashmir extensions can create, making them the perfect addition to any decade inspired look.
