Capricorn:
Wolf Cut
(December 22 - January 19)
If you’re a Capricorn, you are known to be an ambitious and driven trendsetter, which is why a wolf cut hairstyle is the perfect look to rock in 2022. Capricorns are natural-born leaders and a bold wolf cut look conveys the wild trendsetter energy that Capricorns exude. If you want to add an extra layer of boldness, try upping the ante with a bold hair color like a fiery red, icy blonde or if you’re really looking to make jaws drop, try an oceanic blue.
What makes a wolf cut hairstyle look especially eye-catching is when it’s thick and voluminous, which is why you should top off your look by clipping in a super-thick set of bundle hair extensions to add that extra dose of flare to your hair.
Your birth month is also usually one of the coldest times of the year, which may dry out your hair, so be sure to incorporate nutrient-rich hair oil into your regimen to keep your hair moisturized throughout the winter season. Before you know it, you’ll be setting the hair standard in your friend groups that everyone will want to emulate.
