Autumn/winter hair trends 2009

Enlarge

The new season is upon us at last, the shops have weeded out the remaining string bikinis and wheeled in rows and racks of wonderfully warming winter gear. But it's not only your clothes that change with the seasons, it's your hair too, and we've cherry-picked our favourite looks from the catwalk for autumn/winter 2009.

Hair trends this season offer something for everyone. If you're feeling brave why not try an '80s inspired updo, complete with crimping and backcombing as seen at Marc Jacobs. Not a fan of the '80s? Then fear not, as Chloé showcased some of the most beautiful hair of the season with long, lush flowing blonde locks in shades of ash, honey and caramel.

If you're rocking fashion's fierce girl look à la Alexander Wang then make sure your hair complements your look with the trend for healthy grunge, created with raw, tough textures that will add a masculine edge to any style. Plus, it's time to dig out your gel as girls at the Wang show were sent down the runway with slicked-back, wet-look crowns merging into long, feminine lengths.

Plus, crimping is back with a vengeance as seen at Erin Fetherston and Prada, but this might be one trend we'll be giving a wide birth thanks very much, the memories are still too painful.

Finally accessories are still big news. Ranging from the simple kirby grip to sexy, black leather bun bands, glittery animal masks, gobstopper-style hair pins and those now famous Louis Vuitton bunny ears.

Read on to discover the hottest looks and trends of the season and be inspired to transform your 'do this season.
