Wherever you look glasses seem to be the go-to accessory for both celebrities and trendsetters in 2024. They make as much of a statement about your identity, individual style and personality as the rest of your wardrobe. As the main focal point of your face, it is essential they match your hairstyle too. But how do you know what designs to go for? And where do you even begin trying to find glasses to match your hairdo?
It may seem like a bit of a challenge trying to find eyewear to suit your hairstyle, but don’t worry once you know what styles suit you and the look you want to go for, it is actually really easy! To give you an idea of where to start, we’ve created a list of the most fashionable hairstyles with glasses.
Trending women’s hairstyles with glasses
Glasses are a great way to show off your confidence and sense of style. Women everywhere are choosing to complement their outfits and hairdo with different shapes and styles. Look your best on every occasion and make a real impression wherever you go.
Women’s long, straight hair
Is your hair straight with subtle layers? Brie Larson and Margot Robbie are both classic examples of how simple straight hair can give you a confident and fashionable look. Regardless of whether your hair is naturally straight or not, it is a fairly easy hairstyle to achieve and is extremely functional. A classic pair of circular metal glasses will give you a stylish retro look. The roundness of the frame will help to create the illusion of added volume whilst also making your eyes the centre of attention.
Meanwhile, if you have long hair with a sharp fringe or curtain bangs, then we recommend a sleek pair of rectangular glasses which will sit neatly on your face and complement your stylish fringe.
Bouncy curls for women with glasses
70s fashion is here to stay, so why not embrace this groovy vintage vibe? Complement your gorgeous curls with a pair of bold statement glasses. Create the ultimate retro look and pair them with your favourite 70s-inspired outfits for a chic bohemian vibe, reminiscent of 70s style icons like Diana Ross and Stevie Nicks. A bold Aviator or square frame is perfect for creating this chic and elegant kind of look.
The tidy up-do style
Do you style your hair into funky space buns, a modern top knot, or a tight ponytail? Show off your stylish up-do with a fashionable pair of oversized glasses. Big and bold glasses are not only massively on trend, but they will accentuate your eyes perfectly!
Whether it’s a hot summer day, you’re ready to hit the gym, or you’re showing off your professional side, we’re sure you’ll agree, it certainly feels more comfortable with your hair swept up and out of the way! Having your hair tied neatly back is the perfect go-to style for when you want to look good whilst still keeping your hair neat and tidy.
A relaxed half-up do
Extremely flattering and practical, having half of your hair scooped back gives you the perfect balance between having your hair up and down. This works especially well if you have medium-length to long hair. Keep any loose strands out of your face while still showing off the remainder of your luscious locks at the back! Semi-rimless and smaller-sized glasses are the ideal style to go for as they will not distract attention away and will keep the focus on your eyes and splendid hairdo.
Women’s short hairstyles with glasses
We are sure you agree that JLo looked absolutely stunning at Paris Fashion Week this year when she made the perfect entrance, showing off her slicked-back, cropped bob. Short hair is certainly one of the most striking and stylish cuts for women in 2024. Celebrities like Jessica Biel, Carey Mulligan and Sydney Sweeney are also embracing this trendy do.
Whether you have a contemporary undercut, a stylish pixie do, or a trendy bob with a fringe, short hairstyles are a really popular style for women. American pop icon P!nk certainly knows how to rock this glamorous look! Women with shorter hair suit a whole variety of glasses shapes and styles. If you want to add some personality to your look, try a bright pair of cat-eye glasses or a funky geometric frame. For the ultimate confident business look, choose a pair of chunky black glasses.
Fashionable men’s hairstyles with glasses
Glasses are a trendy must-have accessory for men. The right pair accompanied by a stylish haircut will give you a naturally sophisticated look and an air of confidence that will turn heads in every room! Much like the rest of your wardrobe, it is so important to get the balance right and find a style to suit your personality.
Men’s trendy undercut
There is nothing more iconic than the classic short back and sides. Men everywhere are rocking this classic hairstyle at the moment! This masculine cut gives you the best of both worlds. It is long enough to style on top and short enough at the sides that you can enjoy the convenience of a short hairstyle. Some men have it wavy, others have a side part or a swooping pompadour. Of late, the TikTok hairstyle has also become a big trend in which men sweep their hair up on top and keep it trimmed at the sides, you may know of it as the TikTok hairstyle.
However you choose to style your undercut, it is certainly one of the most fashionable hairstyles for men with glasses in 2024. Celebrities love this trendy hairstyle, from Zac Efron to Chris Hemsworth. Pair it with simple designs like transparent or rimless frames to give your stylish undercut the spotlight it truly deserves.
The 90s-inspired curtains with glasses
90s fashion is back for good! The latest hairstyle to make a reappearance is the messy grown-out fringe and middle parting, fondly referred to as ‘curtains’ because of the way the fringe sits on either side of the temples. Every heartthrob of the 90s was rocking this charming masculine look. This included movie stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, pop singers like Mark Owen and even footballers, most famously David Beckham. It was a huge craze!
Today, celebrities like Timothée Chalamet, J-Hope and Ross Butler are reintroducing this classic style onto the fashion scene. It has very recently become a huge online trend too. Finish off this classic 90s look with a pair of round metal glasses for a trendy bohemian vibe.
A classic buzz cut
Men with little to no hair are very lucky as most glasses will suit them! Choose a bold pair of black glasses like Idris Elba for a striking professional look, or add some colour to your wardrobe with a bright frame for the weekends. Men with a very closely-cropped buzz cut can create a timeless military look with a pair of eye-catching Aviator glasses.
The slicked-back retro hairstyle
Lots of men are sweeping their hair back for a fresh take on the classic dapper styles of the 1920s. Ryan Gosling and Brad Pitt certainly know how to pull this classic look off. If you love this charming and enigmatic Gatsby-style hairdo, you’ll want a classic pair of round tortoiseshell frames to complete your retro style. Look handsome and refined in this classic design.
Men with longer hair and glasses
Long hairstyles for men who wear glasses are one of the most contemporary looks. Whether you’re sweeping your locks up into a tidy man bun, embracing a rugged look like Jason Momoa, parting your hair in the middle or at the side, or are letting your locks rest gently on your shoulders like Jared Leto, we recommend a bold pair of frames to highlight your facial features and make your hairstyle the centre of attention.
