Trending tresses: This summer, let your hair do the talking!

Want to look like a million bucks without spending a penny? Begin it with that hairstyle! Like a lot of trends in clothes, trends in hair are also seasonal. And summer trends scream easy, chic, fluid and youthful.

Today, women are more experimental and prefer going  with shorter hairstyles. And not to forget the dramatic colouring options! In short, short and snazzy hairdos are all the rage today!

For work, a neat crop, asymmetric bob or pixie haircut are ideal to bring out the sharpness in your jawline and to show off the length of the neck. And it also takes years off your face!

Generally easy to style and wear, short hairdos are easy to wash regularly; since we tend to sweat so much during the sultry weather. But for ladies with a love for long tresses, choose from options like high ponytails, braids and top knots to keep it off the back.

To jazz these styles, don’t forget to get those solid fringes, which are super in!
Colours are another aspect to add that extra oomph to your hair this summer. For a fluid and flowy look, free hand techniques like “balayage” are the most in.

These give the hair a very soft appearance without harsh demarcation lines. For a bolder and more dramatic statement, candy/rainbow techniques are in vogue. These techniques work with more vibrant shades like pink’s, blue’s etc. and add a fresh and young feel to the whole look. But most importantly, keep cool and look even cooler this summer!
