Frosted Tips
Short, piecey spikes on a dark brown base, with only the last half-inch of each spike bleached icy white. The late-1990s boy-band look is back, and the wintry white tips make it a natural for the holidays. Fun, retro, and a little cheeky.

Frosted tips are short, piecey spikes on a dark base with only the very ends bleached icy white — the defining boy-band hair of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Y2K fashion brought the look back in the 2020s, and the snow-white tips make it a playful fit for winter and the holidays.
They flatter oval, round, square, and heart faces — the spiky top adds height that lengthens a rounder face. Straight and wavy hair spike most easily, and the cut needs about 1.5 inches on top so the bleached ends stay separate from the dark base. Darker natural colors give the strongest contrast.
Medium maintenance — the tips grow out with the cut, so most people re-frost every four to six weeks when they trim. At the salon, the colorist bleaches only the ends of each spike, often with a comb or foil technique, then tones them icy white. Daily styling is a strong-hold wax or gel twisted into piecey spikes, about five minutes. Spiky, frosted, and retro; Y2K hair with a wintry twist.
