It’s almost summer! And with summer comes festivals, and with festivals comes style and beauty inspiration to last you all year. As we watch our favorite celebs and social media influencers rocking the newest trends, we can’t help but get inspired to try a few. Fabulous hair is nothing short of a necessary accessory at festivals, and styles range from classic to wild- and we love it. Here are some hair trends we have been loving at festivals this spring, and some tips for how to achieve them for yourself. Here are Hebeos tips for 2017 Festival Hair Trends for Summer!
1. Deep Side Parts
The middle part and the side part are always neck-and-neck, but they’re both here to stay. If you like one more than the other, we have good news – they’re both trending this season! The deep side part took over the runway during NYFW, LFW and PFW. We love this hairstyle because you can make it sleek and edgy with a low ponytail, or pair it with long, wavy hair for the ultimate mermaid look. If you love this look, stick to your side part because it’s only going to get bigger as the season goes on!
2. Middle Parts
Like we said before, the middle part is here to stay as one of spring and summer’s hottest hairstyles. The middle part offers a boho, groovy, free spirit vibe that we’re going crazy for! Celebs like Kim Kardashian and Bella Hadid love to wear the middle with long, sleek, straight hair. If you feel like rocking a more free-spirited, ‘70s style, then style your middle part with loose waves or cute braids.
3. Braided Hairstyles
Braids are the hottest hair trend right now. Celebrities and fashion icons like Kendall Jenner, Sarah Jessica Parker and Olivia Munn rocked the braided-look this red-carpet season. There are countless ways to wear your braids this spring and summer: French braid, Dutch braids, fishtail, small accent braids and thick braids. Whether you’re going for the messy braid, or the half-up braided look, which is perfect for festival season, rock your braids with confidence!
4. Short/Pixie Cuts
Short hair and pixie cuts are back, and bigger than ever! These spring and summer’s hairstyles are offering tons of different looks for short hair and pixie cuts. On the runway, models are rocking their short hairstyles with straight or slicked back. Depending on what look you’re going for, you can rock your new short cut with ‘80s-inspired curls or a sleek bob. We’ve always loved the pixie cut because it’s so timeless, and can be styled anyway you want!
5. Space Buns
This look is cute, easy to achieve, and low maintenance. Some of our favorite festivals girls rocked this style at Coachella, and there are many ways to make this look your own. If you want to use all of your hair for the buns, simply section your hair into a middle part, and continue your part down to your neck. If you want high buns, a quick trick for keeping your hair in place is to create two high ponytails, then braid each before wrapping them into buns. You could also do a half up half down style with two buns, or french braid the crown of your head back into two buns for a glam twist.
6. Glitter hair
It’s official, glitter is now a hair accessory. You can rock a touch of glitter with any hairstyle you choose! Brush glitter along your part for a fun accent. Combine the glitter of your choice with a strong hair gel, nothing that causes build-up, and use a paint brush or your fingers to dab the color into your hair. Make sure to set with hairspray, or even look into a hairspray that has glitter in it! Pro Tip: After the fun is over, slather olive oil over the glittery sections of your hair, and let it sit for 10 minutes before washing. This is the easiest way to remove glitter!
The best part of music festivals is that you get to let loose, be entirely yourself, and listen to some awesome music! It is the perfect setting for trying a new look, especially hairstyle, and makes for the ideal backdrop for the perfect Instagram selfie.
