Summer is here, and with it comes long weekends, cookouts with friends, and fun new hairstyles.
“Hello summer and hello texture!
Beach bun
There is nothing as cool and chic as a great bun.
It will also keep you from overheating.
“This hairstyle is very versatile and can be done as clean or messy as desired.”
It offers 24 hour humidity resistance and will keep baby hairs down.”
If hair styling isn’t your thing, take the easy way out with a little bun help.
“There are so many different bun makers out there with various foam shapes to choose from.
It has never been easier to make one in seconds,” Salas told me.
In seconds you will have a clean polished style at the beach that is still fun and flirty."
Classic ponytail
If you’ve never been one to try the crazy new styles, fear not.
The basic ponytail is just as special.
“I’ve noticed that a beautiful, classic ponytail is underutilized,” said Salas.
The best part about the classic ponytail is that it can be worn anywhere.
“When it comes to summer hairstyles, the less effort, the better!
This is why I love a classic ponytail,” DiVine told me.
“This style can be dressed up or down and made low or high for any occasion.
Tease it up for some after-work fun or straighten your tail for a fancy brunch… you decide!”
Try a braid
A classic braid is the perfect summer hairstyle.
Wear your braid of choice and let this style act as a curling iron," Salas told me.
“Once in for a few hours, undo to reveal heatless waves.”
“The fishtail side braid is one of my favorites,” Everson said.
“I like to pull a few strands out to make it look a little more casual and fun.
I’m also seeing hair jewelry in many braids.
Tiny jewels and gold pieces can be woven into a braid to add a pop of color and creativity.
It’s such a fun and unique styling technique.
Hair jewelry is definitely stunning.”
Celebrity hairstylistDavid Babaiiloves a sleek ponytail with a braided band.
“After using a great leave-in treatment, create a smooth sleek pony.
“Use a flat iron to the pony to achieve pure sleekness.
For that festival look, try crimping some strands that peek through your pony.”
“Just remember to protect your scalp!
Before heading outside, see to it you apply sunscreen to the exposed scalp.”
The mohawk braided top knot
The top knot look is everywhere and certainly nice for summer.
To take this look to the next level, try adding a braid.
“To spice things up, try this mohawk braided top knot for a trendy summer look.”
Start by sectioning off the hair on the top of your head and clipping that section up.
Place the rest of your hair in a ponytail to keep it out of the way.
“Create adutch braidalong the center of the top of the head.
To finish, spray a light coat of hairspray and go!
Textured waves
Salty beach waves are the classic summer look.
They also take almost no effort.
Bright, short styles
I recently had my hair cut and went for my usual long layers.
Stylist and barber Jessica Zeinstra loves a great pixie cut for summer.
Short, blonde looks are particularly big this season.
“Platinum tresses are one of my favorite hairstyles this summer.
“It gets even hotter when you opt for a platinum blonde pixie cut or beach wave bob.”
To confirm your favorite features really pop, confirm you’re wearing the right colors to accentuate your hair.
“These cooler colors radiate against your face, giving you an instant glow for summer!”
“Modern disco hairstyles are perfect for summer.
“Use a sea salt spray to add volume to your curls and then just let them go.
Shaggy bangs
For a fun, casual look this summer, try some new bangs.

This will keep the fringe airy and easy to sweep.”
It also seems to never go out of style.
“I love this cut!
A classic blunt bob is one of my favorites and always chic,” Dahlstrom told me.
“If your hair is too thin, it will appear too weighed down.”
“The trick is to make your hair look wet without actually being wet,” explained Gallegos.
Soft trendy beach waves look great on this style, because they give it a little flair.
Start with a quality conditioner, and always apply sunscreen to any exposed areas of your scalp.
