Summer Hairstyle Trends

While spring and fall are typically seasons for stylish change when it comes to your hair, summer warrants a more practical approach. Many are inspired to go shorter to eliminate the need for a constant ponytail and excessive sweating, while others find that leisurely vacations inspire them to focus on self-care or to experiment with new styles. In either scenario, there is certainly no shortage of summer hairstyle trends this year. Explore some of the most popular summer hairstyles:

1.Mullets

Perhaps the most interesting and unexpected trend of the summer has been the world’s obsession with the mullet. The style was immensely popular in the 1980s and afterwards, was immediately associated with that era--and that era alone. This retro hairstyle that has its own moto (business in the front, party in the back) has been adopted by numerous celebrities which has fueled its comeback. Fortunately, the style is much more toned down than the origins and features much less feathering in the front and a less dramatic transition from “business” to “party”.

2.Shags

If the mere mention of a “shag” haircut gives you major 70s vibes, you aren’t alone. Although this look originally garnered popularity in the decade of disco, in recent years it has been given an upgrade. The original shaggy haircut was excessively shaggy and added tons of volume around the face. This new style is much more toned down with shaggy bangs and face-framing shaggy layers. It is universally flattering and has been spotted on countless celebrities this summer.

3.Undercuts

Undercuts have had their fair share of moments in the spotlight over the last few years, but they reached an all-time high this summer. This look can be described as part-bob (or pixie) and part buzz cut. Essentially, the hair on the top of the head is kept longer than the sides or the bottom which are shaved down or cut to a barely-there length. This is a look that is fierce, cuts down on styling time and can help you beat the summer heat.

4.Buzzcuts

After more than a year of virtual meetings and limited outings, many women found a sense of freedom in not having to tediously style and care for their locks everyday. Along with the scorching heat of the summer months, the buzzcut has been one of the trendiest haircuts of the season. Although many are sticking to their natural hue, others have chosen to emphasize the short hairdo with bright neon colors and icy blondes. In either case, this is as simple as it gets in terms of haircare and styling.

5.Bangs

This summer, those who have been looking for a way to spice up their mid-length or long-locks have opted to add bangs. The most popular styles have proved to be the curtain bang and long side-swept styles. Both of these add structure to your look without the drastic commitment of an ultra-short fringe.
