If there’s anything I love, it’s a good reference. Something to point to when a client is explaining the hairstyle they’ll hope I’ll give them. They always range, of course––I’ve hinted at everything from “Jane Birkin on a hippie commune” to “a young Goldie Hawn.” The latest shows from New York Fashion Week have given us more of these visualizing moments, and now, I have more imagery fodder to delve out before giving a makeover to the guest sitting in my chair.

The clothes weren't costume-y, the beauty looks weren’t cartoony, and the hair was downright wearable. While there wasn’t a teased bang in sight, we did witness the revival of a few of the classics from yesteryear. Thankfully, this season’s hairstyles can––and should––be put to the test (Aqua Net need not be used). Here are a few trends worth trying:
