Yelp is releasing its 2022 beauty trend forecast report featuring top beauty and wellness trends for the year to come.
 
Yelp is predicting that up-and-coming treatments, such as lip blushing (up 130%) and PRF injections (up 44%), will go mainstream and retro favorites like mullets (up 73%) will make a comeback. 
  

Next Level Lips – Lip Flips and Lip Blushing

Tik-tokers are popularizing the lip flip (up 107%), driving many to try it out for themselves. The perfect pout isn’t only about shape – lip blushing (up 130%) might save some time on your morning beauty routine as you transition back to office life.
 

Retro Hair Revival


It's not just workplaces that are opting for a hybrid model; the infamous ‘70s mullet is making a comeback. Lil Nas X andFlorence Pugh are just two of the many stars reviving the “business in the front, party in the back” style. Yelp searches for “mullet” are up 73% – a trend we expect to continue in 2022. Curtain bangs, another disco-era favorite, are exploding in popularity with an increase of 828% in searches on Yelp.
 

Body Contour

Traditional body contour continues to trend in popularity (up 35%) and for those looking for similar results without the surgery, procedures like Emsculpt (up 24%) are a new favorite on Yelp.


Nailed It

If a year of hand sanitizer and hand washing has left your fingers in need of TLC, next year will find many of us reinvesting in manicures. Nail art (up 75%) continues to trend with designs that are more intricate than ever. And we expect almond shaped nails (up 146%) to be a favorite in the year ahead.
 

Glow Up

Facials are always in style, and right now the glow facial – which involves stimulating oxygenation and circulation through product and massage techniques is up 66%. Making it the most popular facial among Yelp users looking to revitalize and rejuvenate their skin.
 

PRF Injections

Platelet rich fibrin aka the cousin of Platelet-rich plasma, bka PRF, is used to treat signs of aging on the face and scalp. With searches for the treatment up 44%, we’re predicting it goes mainstream in 2022.  
 

The Other Botox

Despite its name, there are no needles involved in hair botox. Likened to a strong hydrating mask, this cousin of the popular keratin treatment is growing in popularity, and Yelp searches for the deep conditioning treatment are up 22%. 

 

Buccal Fat Removal

While there are dozens of makeup tricks to slim the appearance of your face, some are opting for a more permanent fix. On Yelp, searches for this procedure are up 16%.
