If You're An Enneagram Type 6, Here's The Hairstyle You Should Try

Out of all the Enneagram types, a type Six is the one you'd want running your company or managing your finances. According to The Enneagram Institute, the Enneagram type Six is known as "the loyalist" and their key traits include being responsible, loyal, and hardworking. On the other hand, their need for security often leads to anxious thoughts and self-doubt about themselves and those around them.

At their core, though, a type Six is a great team player and is often super well-liked, per Truity. They usually have a close group of friends and are extremely loyal to them — and often planning their vacations and weekend plans. But when stressed, a type Six can also have a hard time making decisions. Because of this, something even as simple as choosing a new hairstyle could send them into a panic. But, Six, don't fret. If it's time to change up your look, we've researched the best hairstyles for you.

Enneagram type 6 should keep things simple

According to Gliks, an Enneagram type Six likes to keep their style more conservative (it's unlikely you'll spot a Six in a crop top). They suggest then that our Six friends stick to simple staples, like a good pair of jeans and a crisp white tee or an athleisure set. And when it comes to their hairstyle, that sentiment still rings true. An Enneagram type Six craves security, so they often focus more on how clean their hair is rather than how it's styled, per Shine.Buzz.

But with their strong loyalty to their friends, a type Six may also gravitate towards what others are doing with their hair, per Enneagram Playground. This makes it hard to pinpoint one specific hairstyle that is perfect for them. But, overall, a Six is always going to gravitate towards classic styles that they can wear no matter what's on trend. And classic doesn't always need to be boring — if you are feeling a need for a change these days, consider these classic yet cute hairstyles.

Classic hairstyles perfect for a type 6

According to UM Square Magazine, an Enneagram Six is likely not into trends. In fact, their sense of security makes it hard for them to branch out and try new things. But, while it would be highly unlikely to see a type Six with rainbow colored hair, you can still try some new styles that fit your mold.

When it comes to hair, it's important that a Six chooses something that will never go out of style. According to Southern Living, some classic styles that will always be on trend include a pixie cut or a bob for shorter-haired fans, or side-swept bangs and a layered look for longer-haired supporters.

If you are heading to the salon for a cut, ask your stylist for face-framing layers, a style made popular by Jennifer Aniston that has remained a staple in women's hairstyles for decades (per InStyle). If you are styling your hair at home, try tousled waves, which can be easily done by using a texture spray or give your hair some volume by adding a mouse to your hair before blow-drying.
