Reading the next wig trend is an old homework for those in the beauty industry. This is because catching the style of hair that the public wants faster than others means becoming a leader in the hair market.

This homework is sometimes solved in unexpectedly close places, because sometimes trends are made by people we know. The impact of influencers these days is enough to create a wig trend for one season. Let’s predict the next wig trend through the hottest stars and wig designers that the public pays attention to these days.

People have long been intrigued in what styles is worn by which celebrity. They closely watch the whereabouts and the appearance of their favorite stars to study and mimic their hair and fashion. This often is a source of a new trend. Beyoncé and Cardi B are by far the most popular stars nowadays.

Last year, she showed off her long braid hair for Lion King’s theme song, titled “Spirit”. Then-strange 30-foot-long braids made an impact on many people, and as a result, one of the hot sellers in this summer had been longer braids. The hair worn by Beyoncé was custom-made upon her order, and her stylists reportedly worked on the hairstyle for three days and nights.

What about this winter? She released a visual album “Black is King” this summer. The album was well received by the critics, and Beyoncé proved herself as a trendsetter once again. This album was visually directed by Beyoncé overall. For Black is King, she sought after the inherent beauty of an African American woman by trying out lots of Africa’s traditional fashion and hairstyles.
