Thanks to the vaguely nonsensical world of fashion, we got our first look at spring beauty back in the fall. Now the reward for slogging through winter is the chance to put them into action. According to the hundreds of looks we saw on the runway and backstage, the spring forecast is windswept with a chance of texture, and lots of it. From throwback accessories—scrunchies are back, guys—to fancy ponytails, we saw dozens of ways to style curly, natural, and pin-straight hair at any length. As always with the runways, some are copyable while others are purely works of art, but they’re all looks worth seeing. Here, the hairstyles our editors haven’t been able to shut up about for months.

-
PHOTO: DENNIS LEUPOLD; HAIR BY YUSEF WILLIAMS FOR DYSON The Bungee Ponies at Fenty
“Yusef—Rihanna’s ‘hair artist’—calls this look ‘athletic cool, bad girl, graphic with a little bit of edge’ hair. I call it the best damn gym ponytail you’ve ever laid eyes on.” —L.S.
-
PHOTO: GONZALO MARROQUIN The Brushed-Out Curls at Cynthia Rowley
“You know when you have really pretty ringlets, and then you just take a brush and start going to town? It’s a little frizzy, a lot romantic, and I’m so into it.” —Erin Reimel, beauty assistant
-

-
PHOTO: MATTEO SCARPELLINI The Dirty Dancing Curls at Akris
“I’m sure Abigail Breslin’s hair did the best it could in the Dirty Dancingremake, but this does the original proud. This is the 2018 version we deserved.” —R.N.
-

“Something tells me if I went to the craft store to try and copy this, it wouldn’t look half as good as it does here. But I’m curious to find out.” —A.R.
-
PHOTO: JP YIM; HAIR BY BRIAN BUENAVENTURA FOR CUTLER SALONS/REDKEN The “New Taylor” Hair at Banana Republic
“Hi, Taylor can’t come to the phone right now because this model stole her hair and now I want it too. If I actually had curls (and this bone structure) I’d be in my stylist’s chair with this photo, like, yesterday.” —L.S.
-
PHOTO: BUMBLE AND BUMBLE; HAIR BY LAURENT PHILIPPON FOR BUMBLE AND BUMBLE The “Oh My God They’re Back” Scrunchies at Mansur Gavriel

-
PHOTO: PASCAL LE SEGRETAIN Slick Woods’ Buzz Cut at Fenty (and Everywhere Else)

-
The PVC Ponytails at Chanel
“The hairstylists used vacuums—vacuums—to get the models’ hair tightly pulled into these ponies, which only makes me love this so much more. High maintenance in the best way. Very Chanel.” —L.S.
-
PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES; HAIR BY ODILE GILBERT FOR TRESEMMÉ The Peekaboo Braids at Jill Stuart
“The one thing that stops me from braiding my hair every day is I can’t show off my curls and my braid skills at the same time. These little behind-the-ear beauties let you have it both ways.” —A.R.
-
PHOTO: JANE KRATOCHVIL; RODNEY CUTLER FOR CUTLER SALONS/REDKEN This Dream Bob at Nicole Miller
“The bob itself wasn’t so much the ‘trend’ at the show—that would be those ever-elusive ‘perfectly undone’ waves—but all I can focus on is how much I want it all. The length, the bangs, the color. Can I Freaky Friday myself into this model?” —L.S.
-
PHOTO: INSTAGRAM @REDKEN; HAIR BY GUIDO PALAU FOR REDKEN The Low-Stakes Bun
“This is like that accidentally perfect bun I’ll tie my hair back into when I wash my face, but can never re-create again on purpose. (Ah, the irony.)” —J.M.

-
PHOTO: ASTRID STAWIARZ; HAIR BY JUSTINE MARJAN FOR TRESEMMÉ The “I Did Not Wake Up Like This” Texture at Alice + Olivia
“Behold: the messy, bendy waves I’ve been trying—and failing—to replicate forever. Maybe now I can.” —E.R.
-

-
PHOTO: PETER WHITE; HAIR BY PETER GRAY FOR CUTLER/REDKEN SALONS The New Classic Bun at Badgley Mischka

-
PHOTO: JUSTINE MARJAN; HAIR BY JUSTINE MARJAN FOR TRESEMMÉ The Fuzzy Ponytails at Tanya Taylor

-
PHOTO: CHRIS DELORENZO; HAIR BY JAMES PECIS FOR ORIBE The Amazonian-Goddess-Meets-Eighties-Power-Volume Hair at Baja East
“Wet-look hair typically means slicked-back, fresh-out-of-the-shower strands, but the look at Baja East reads more like someone midmorning air dry—in an ideal world, that is. With major volume at the roots, a soft sheen, and gentle frizz on models’ curls, it’d look equally gorgeous in a rainforest or at the office.” —R.N.
-
PHOTO: ANDREW TOTH; HAIR BY RITA HAZAN The Seventies Turbans at Veronica Beard
“I haven’t worn headbands since my private high school days, but thankfully, 2018’s take is more Brooklyn than Upper East Side.” —E.R.
-
PHOTO: ANDREW TOTH; HAIR BY HOLLI SMITH FOR TRESEMMÉ The Bobby Pin Art at Sally LaPointe
“This pin art look gave me immediate hair envy and a compulsion to go home, root through my hair junk drawer, and test it out. It’s eye-catching without being intimidating.” —A.R.
-
PHOTO: MATTEO VALLE; HAIR BY GUIDO PALAU FOR TANGLE TEEZER The “Oh This Thing?” Loops at Victoria Beckham
“Only Victoria Beckham could make an incomplete half-pony look chic.” —R.N.
