By Lauren. Created on January 20, 2026
Valentine’s Day dressing isn’t just about the outfit – your hair sets the tone before you even step out the door. This year, it’s all about effortless confidence with a polished edge. Whether you’re heading out for a first date, celebrating with friends, or planning a romantic weekend away, our Atelier stylists have revealed the two standout looks you’ll be seeing everywhere on February 14th.
The Modern Textured Up-Do
Leon O’Donnell – Advocate Stylist
If the idea of looking too put-together makes you cringe, this is the Valentine’s look for you. Leon predicts that softly textured up-dos will dominate this season, striking the perfect balance between undone and intentional.
Created with careful tonging, this style brings movement and a flirty, modern feel without appearing over-styled. Loose tendrils around the face add instant softness, subtly shaping the jaw and enhancing natural features. It’s relaxed, romantic, and undeniably cool.
Style it with a bold lip and statement earrings to elevate the look for evening plans – proof that less effort can still make maximum impact.

The Glamorous Chelsea Blow Dry
Maisie Tomkins – Principal Stylist
For those who believe Valentine’s Day calls for full glamour, Maisie’s signature Chelsea blow dry is set to be the look of the season. Think volume, bounce, and timeless elegance.
This classic bombshell blow dry delivers polished confidence that lasts, ideal whether you’re heading out for date night or packing for a long weekend away. With its glossy finish and enduring shape, it’s the ultimate answer to all your February 14th hair dilemmas.
Romantic, powerful, and endlessly chic, this is the style that proves some classics never go out of fashion.
