5 celebrity summer hairstyles we love

Fancy up ‘dos

Perfect for the last-minute gal having a bad hair day, fancy up ‘dos are in and as you can see, Scarlett Johansson makes it look absolutely effortless. The messy look is on trend, as well, so pinning your hair up and giving it a quick tease is all you need to do to get this red-carpet ready look for summer. For extra runway-worthy flare, add some sparkling hairpins or accessories.

Dark hair

While going light is the usual summer trend, this year celebs are trying out something new. At the CFDA Awards on June 4, Mary-Kate Olsen showed off her brand new ‘do: dark locks. From a platinum blond hair colour only a few weeks ago, the young star opted for a change with this chestnut-brown shade with a glossy finish. And we have to admit, it suits her!

Va-va-voom glamorous blowout

The flat, androgynous look is behind us and celebs are making that clearer than ever with hair that’s nothing less than voluptuous. Get you hands on some hot rollers and a big round brush because big ‘dos are back. Seen on DKNY’s SS12 catwalk and on celebrities like New Girl star, Zooey Deschanel, big, voluminous hair is in. A few flips and waves here and there also make it a little sexier.

Ponytail

The ponytail: so classic yet so trendy this year. While ponytails are our go-to look when we’re not sure what else to do, a sleek ponytail is certainly on trend this summer. Celebs like Beyoncé have done a fab job of making the casual hairstyle look elegant and chic by pairing it with bright lips and glowing cheeks. Plus, who can deny the beauty of tying up your hair on those hot, sticky summer days?

Side-parted hair

Side, middle, side, middle – trendsetters can never decide. But this year, we can say with absolute certainty that the side-part wins. For a trendy look with little effort required, a side part is all you need to be as red-carpet ready as the beautiful Nina Dobrev.
