Since we’re all starting to get ready again, it’s only fair that we enlighten you with the hair trends we’ve spotted on Instagram this week to give you all the styles and accessory inspiration you need. From 90’s butterfly clips, ponytail perfecting hair extensions and 00s side bangs – there are lots of different ways you can experiment with your hair in SS21 – and the best thing is, they’re all easy to achieve.
Takin’ it Back To The 90’s
One of the cutest trends is the return of the 90’s hair accessory trend – butterfly hair clips. Coming in lots of bright colours, these ditsy clips are the perfect flyaway solution, plait decoration, or simply a way to add colour to your look.
Sleek & Sophisticated
One of the simplest yet most effective ‘do’s is the sleek, straightened ponytail with accentuated flyaways or edges. All you need to create this look is a pair of straighteners, some hair polish for that healthy shine, and a simple kit for those flyaways.
Side Bang Beauty
We’re throwing it back to the 00s with the side bang this SS21. All the insta baddies are catching on to this trend, especially with the turn to y2k in the fashion world. Easy to create with a mini flat iron and easy to preserve with some spray wax – we’re frizz-free all summer.
Tip: Add A Headscarf
Another hair accessory trend that has made its return this season is the effortless but chic headscarf. Add a touch of elegance to any hairstyle, since these work when your hair is up, down, or both. Trending as of right now is the crochet style pieces and the timeless patterned silk variations. The scarfs can be tied in many different ways depending on what look you’re going for. Twist it into a headband, wrap it under and over or even cover your whole head.
Braids For Days
Nothing is more perfect for summer than braids. They’re the perfect style for keeping hair out of your face, avoiding hair-induced overheating, and giving you stress-free styling – especially when swimming. Braids can even be kept in for a few days with little damage to your hair, all you need to preserve the look is the right oils – keeping them shiny and healthy, too.
Comb Out Them Curls
When it comes to curls, you no longer need to be afraid of combing them out. With the right brush, we recommend a paddle brush, you avoid all pesky frizz and damage. In fact, combing out your curls keeps your hair healthier, since you don’t have to inflict knots and dryness. Keep this look sustainable with a moisture cream, giving your brushed hair shine and definition.
Extensions? Yes Please
Lullabellz is topping the market in SS21 with their amazing quality hair extensions and wide range of styles. Trending right now are the ponytail enhancing looks that add thickness, shine, and length to any natural hair. Their ponytail variations come in all sorts of styles, we’ve picked out the Hollywood Wave, 90’s Bounce, and Grande straight – covering you from all bases. Say goodbye to flat hair-up do’s this season.
