How the Botticelli haircut will take over
TikTok is a treasure trove for the latest hair trends and Bella Hadid’s spikey bun was a firm favourite. However, if you’ve overdone the Bella bun and are looking for something a little kinder to your mane; the Botticelli ‘do is the style for you.
One of the main reasons the Botticelli haircut will take over the spikey bun hype is because it allows your luscious locks to drop naturally. Slicked back looks involve pulling on hair and scraping it in a harsh motion, which causes split ends. Hairspray and gels are also used to complete the bun, which can often be damaging to hair, the less product the better.
Not to mention, it is a lot less time consuming and easy to do for anyone who isn’t a hair whizz. However, Hadid’s hairstyle is certainly a life saver for when your hair is getting greasy. No product needed, slick it back and no-one can tell you’ve gone five days without a hair wash. This is something the Botticelli hair trend could never compete with.
