The heat is on! This summer let the red carpet be your guide. Talk to your favorite New Orleans hairstylist about revamping your look with new color, experimenting with new products, or finding a completely new style. Summer is a time to let loose and be a little more casual so have fun with your style and consider ways to keep longer hair off of your neck so you can beat the heat.
Color My World
Color may not be for everyone, but the trend on the red carpet during this past awards season showed us that color is in. And not just any color. We’ve certainly see Katy Perry and Nicky Minaj with some fun and funky hues. Recently, Kylie Jenner even stepped out with a blue-green tinted bob. The color wasn’t permanent according to her hairstylist, so be on the lookout for more colors this summer!
High on Your Horse (or should we stay low?)
The ponytail is still in style (won’t it always be?). This summer you will see gals wearing it really high with maybe a thick braid for the longer lengths. Or the other trend we’re seeing is a super low and slicked-back variety (think Kim Kardashian or J.Lo). You’ll want to invest in a good hair gel or serum to get that super sleek look so you don’t succumb to the summertime frizz due to our friend, humidity! Your New Orleans hairstylist will have some tips to avoid this common problem.
Swept Away in the Waves
This one just screams beach! You get those loose and bouncy waves but you use a deep side-part for a swept look that is casual, flirty and embodies summer. You might need some guidance from your hairstylist if you haven’t tried this look before. It’s a delicate balance between the right products and techniques to get the look just right. You want it to look like you didn’t do a thing, yet the hairstyle might take a while to put together.
Buns in the Sky Keep on Turning
Just when we think the bun is out, it comes right back in. And there is no better time than now. A high bun will keep hair off of your neck, making you much cooler in those hot and humid summer days. This is also a great recipe for post-pool or beach mode. It’s an effortless look that can be worn sloppy and free. It can also be touched up with a brush and a little product if you want to make the look sleeker and more sophisticated.
