Side Parts and Blowouts - Wichita is Embracing the Newest Trend
What? Like it's Hard?

If you've noticed more side parts and bouncy blowouts walking around Wichita lately, you didn't time travel to 2009 —these iconic hair trends are officially back in style, and they’re better than ever. From local brunch spots to downtown events, clients are asking our Wichita salon stylists for volume, movement, and a classic-meets-modern shape that flatters any face. But unlike the over-styled looks of the early 2000s, today’s side parts and blowouts are softer, more wearable, and built for real life.
So what’s different this time around? Today’s side parts are more effortless and natural—less "dramatic swoop" and more subtle shift in shape to enhance cheekbones or open up the face. It’s about embracing what looks best on you, not just following a trend. At Curls Gone Wild Salon, we’re seeing clients of all textures—straight, wavy, and curly—incorporating a gentle side part into their styling routine for a fresh new look that doesn’t feel dated or overly done.
As for blowouts, they’ve evolved, too. Say goodbye to crunchy curls and sticky hairsprays. Modern blowouts focus on soft volume, smoothness, and touchable movement. We've taken the time to find the best products for maximum hold and maximum volume. Here's some of the products you'll expect to find at your appointment
Color Wow Dream Coat - Seals the cuticle to create a silky-smooth, glass-like finish
Color Wow Xtra Large - Gives root-to-tip volume without stiffness or crunch
Color Wow Texas Hold 'Em - Strong yet flexible hold to lock in lift and style all day.
To ensure that your hair not only looks incredible but stays healthy. A great blowout today is about long-lasting style that works with your natural texture—not against it. Clients across Wichita are loving this trend not just for how it looks, but for how easy it is to maintain.
