5 fun summer hairstyles to try now
Hair Trends - April Mag
Braids, braids, braids
From basic plaits to fishtails and fancy updos, this girlie style is all grown up. Braid them tight and sleek or loose and messy — anything woven goes.
Clips, adornments and accessories
Barrettes, clips, floral headpieces and leather ties are the latest must-have accessories — and the easiest way to update your look. Pull back hair and fasten with anything other than a traditional elastic.
The new wave
Loose, beachy and laid-back waves are here to stay. Get the tousled look by changing up the barrel size, angle and direction of your curling iron.
The low pony tail
Simple, pretty and sophisticated ponies work for day and night. You can even add a little wave if you like. Secure at the nape of your neck with a non-snag elastic and voila.
Slicked back
Go for sleek, brushed-back hair with a soft finish. All you need is a styling cream or gel and a wide-toothed comb.
