Curtain Bangs
We love drawing inspiration from the 70s and nothing brings the era to life like curtain bangs! It's the hair trend that just won't quit, and we're not mad about it. Effortlessly cool, relaxed yet chic, these longer swinging bangs are easier to style, give you more options, and can be grown out faster than shorter bangs. Loved by the likes of Kaia Gerber, Elizabeth Olsen and Taylor LaShae, this trend works with a cute bob or with longer lengths.
The Hot Girl Bob
The classic chin-length bob is a summer favourite of ours – chic beyond belief and perfect for the warmer months. Style straight, with a bend or a bouncy flipped blowout, it’s a versatile style that screams confidence. Halle Berry rocked a bold bob cut at the Oscars complete with wispy baby bangs, whilst we loved Hunter Schafer’s 70s flicked out chin length style for a more retro look. Meagan Good also had us filled with hair envy with her side parted perfect style. Pair with a bikini top and sunnies and you’re good to go!
Half & Half Hair
Two tone, block colouring has become a must have look with celebrities and influencers rocking contrasting panels of colour that really make an impact. The bigger the contrast the better! Go left to right side, or top to bottom like Dua Lipa to give the look a go. Alternatively opt for a face framing vibe where highlights contrast with the rest of the hair for a more subtle take. Kaia Gerber's pink ombré is a favourite for the summer adding a fun and playful feel for those who want to stand out for all the right reasons.
Money Piece Highlights
Beauty trends from decades past are having a resurgence on TikTok and another vintage hair colour is making a comeback for summer 2021! Money piece highlights are an updated version of chunky highlights, a trend that was popular in the '90s. Celebrities like Beyoncé, Dua Lipa and Bella Hadid might just convince you on the look even if you’re old enough to remember the trend the first time around. This is all about drama when it comes to framing your face.
The Wolf Cut
A progression of the '70's shag, for the summer we see this classic fluffy and fabulous look merge with elements of the mullet. The Wolf Cut has had 108 million views on TikTok and is fast becoming a viral hit. This evolution on a classic focus on eliminating weight and adds movement to the ends while detailing the shape to emphasize features around the face. It can be altered for all hair types and face shapes, making it a versatile option. A chance to channel your inner Farrah Fawcett and punk-rock goddess as the same time, this trend will inspire you to take a step back in time and chop your locks. Draw inspo from Debby Ryan and Billie Eilish to help get the look.
Now you have the inspo, it’s time to book your appointment and get ready to hair flick into a new season of positivity and freedom.
