5 Summer Hair Trends ☀️
✨ 5 Summer Hair Trends That Are Serving Looks AND Low-Maintenance Vibes
Summer is all about sunshine, sweat, and letting your hair live a little—without the stress. Whether you’re poolside, on a patio, or just living for that iced coffee run, these trending styles are giving effortless cool and practical upkeep. As someone who loves working with texture, color, and movement, I’m breaking down my top five trends that’ll help you feel confident and fresh all summer long.
☀️ Color Blocking This trend is having a major moment again—but this time it’s more intentional and low-maintenance. Placing pops of color underneath your natural tone lets you have fun with dimension while keeping things chill on the upkeep (aka fewer root touch-ups, more summer living).
☀️ Lived-In Dimensional Color Enhance what you’ve already got or add more pop to your hair. Lived-in dimension plays with depth and lightness in a way that can look more natural and soft as it grows out. Lived-in color can be gentler on the beauty budget depending on desired results and current canvas.
☀️ Airy Layers, Face-Framing & Bangs Not ready for a big chop? These are your go-to’s for movement and shape without sacrificing length. Great for opening up the face and adding style even when your hair’s up in a messy bun or claw clip.
☀️ Glossy Finishes & Shine Treatments Color aside, everyone looks good with shiny hair. Glosses help seal your cuticle, extend color longevity, and fight frizz + flyaways. Think of it like top coat for your hair.
☀️ Natural Texture & Curly Cuts More people are embracing their curls and waves this year, and I’m all about it. Whether it’s a dry shape, wet cut, or razor detailing—there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to curly hair. It’s about working with your texture, not against it.
The best part? Every one of these trends can be tailored to your lifestyle, hair type, and vibe. Whether you’re ready to try something bold or just want to enhance what you’ve already got, there’s a way to make it work for you—and keep your hair looking cute between visits. 👏
✨ Because at the end of the day, healthy, confident hair? That’s the real trend.
