Looking for a new hairstyle to try out this summer? Well, you’re in luck! We have gathered some of our favorite hairstyles that are sure to keep you looking cool and chic all season long. Whether you’re looking for something playful and fun, or something more elegant and sophisticated, we’ve got you covered. So read on to discover the latest trends in hairstyles for summer 2022!
If you have long hair, you’re in luck! There are so many different styles that you can try out to keep your look fresh and exciting all summer long. Braids, half up, half down, pony tails -there are so many styles to choose from. Here are three of our favorites:
The throwback bun: This style is perfect for those who want a retro-inspired look. Simply gather your hair into a low ponytail, then twist it up and secure it with bobby pins. For a more polished finish, you can wrap a strand of hair around the base of the bun to hide any stray hairs.
The 90s Layered Cut: This style is making a big comeback this summer, and we are all over it! If you have long hair, layers that start at your chin will help to create a softer, more flattering look.
Beachy Waves: This is a timeless style that always looks effortless and chic. To get beachy waves, start by spraying your hair with a salt water spray. Then, using a large barrel curling iron, curl large sections of your hair. Once you’re done curling, run your fingers through your hair to break up the curls and give them a more natural look.
If you have short hair, don’t worry – there are also plenty of great styles that you can try out this summer! Here are three of our favorites:
The Pixie Cut: This is a cute and playful style that is perfect for summer. To style a pixie cut, start by using a volumizing spray to add some texture to your hair. Then, using your fingers, style your hair into place. You can also add some pomade to help tame any flyaways.
The Bob: The bob is another great option for those with short hair. To style a bob, start by blow drying your hair straight. Then, using a flat iron, smooth out any remaining bumps. Finally, use a shine serum to add some polish to your look.
The Lob: The lob is a great style for those who want the look of a bob but with a little bit more length. To style a lob, start by blow drying your hair straight. Then, using a large barrel curling iron, curl the ends of your hair. Finish by spraying with a light hold hairspray to keep your style in place.
Going Natural
Rocking your natural roots? We’re here for it! This summer, embracing your natural hair color and letting it shine is a top notch option. But if you have previously color-treated hair, you’ll come up against that “awkward stage” where the new growth and the old color just look… well, a little awkward. It’s this point where a lot of us decide to forget our desire to go natural and start coloring our hair all over again. You don’t have to give up, though! The stylists at Elan can help ease your transition with minimal intervention, making that “growing out” phase easier.
Trendy Colors
We love your natural hair, but let’s face it, color is a lot of fun! If you’re looking to add a little bit of color to your look this summer, consider one of these trendy hues:
Hair Contouring
To add some extra dimension to your hair, hair contouring is the way to go! This trend is perfect for those who want to create the illusion of fuller, thicker hair. We achieve this look by choosing two colors that are complementary to each other and alternating them to create a contoured effect.
No matter what style or color you choose, the important thing is that you feel confident and beautiful! We hope we have inspired you to try out some new styles and colors this summer.
