Easy hairstyles for hot summer days
Summer calls for cute hairstyles that are quick and fuss-free and do not leave you breaking out in a sweat. Beat the heat in style with these must-try hairdos:
Summer hairstyles for long and medium length hair
Having luscious long hair can be a bit of a challenge during the scorching summer months. It takes a long time to dry and wearing it down can make you feel hot and sweaty. The great thing about it, though, is that the styling possibilities are endless.
High ponytail
The high ponytail is a classic hairstyle that works for every occasion and never goes out of style. One of the most important points is using a hair tie that does not damage your hair, such as the Invisibobble Original spiral hair tie. It comes in an original and a more delicate slim version, and is available in 7 different stylish colours. Follow this link to discover our entire selection of hair ties.
The Wella Performance Hair Spray is ideal for locking this summer hairstyle in place. The extra fine mist adds strong, flexible hold but does not leave a sticky residue. It can easily be brushed out again.
Beach Waves
Beach Waves are one of the most popular cute hairstyles for long hair. They are easy to do, last all day and give off a laid-back summer vibe. To help you look like you just got back from a day at the beach, try the following products:
- Schwarzkopf OSIS+ Beach Texture: A texturizing spray that allows you to create natural-looking, tousled beach waves at home. It works particularly well on long and medium-length hair to deliver volume and texture without leaving your hair feeling crunchy.
- Alcina Strong Curls Concept is a curl-enhancing cream that improves bounce and curl pattern. It offers lightweight support to create perfectly-defined, frizz-free curls.
- Aveda Be Curly Curl Enhancer: Defines and intensifies natural curls and waves. The styling cream adds shine and combats frizz. It is vegan and cruelty-free.
- Moroccanoil Beach Waves Mousse: This lighweight mousse creates breath-taking Beach Waves with flexible hold and, at the same time, protects your hair against UV damage.

Curls
Curls are always a good idea and look particularly amazing with glowing summer skin. For smooth and long-lasting, beautiful curls we recommend lightweight mousse products, such as the Wella Nutricurls Boost Bounce. This airy mousse improves bounce and definition for a natural curl pattern.
Refresh and revive your second day hair with the Kérastase Curl Manifesto Refresh Absolu. This lightweight spray rejuvenates curls and enhances their natural shape. It battles humidity and frizz to leave curls defined and bouncy.
Summer hairstyles to keep you cool
When temperatures rise and the heat becomes unbearable, the best way to cool off is to put your hair up.
Braided hairstyles
Whether you are going for a classic French Braid or trendy Boxer Braids – the key to braiding your own hair is volume and grip. L'Oréal Tecni.Art Super Dust is a volume and fixing powder that can be applied to dry hair and instantly gives your hair texture to make braiding easier. OSIS+ Dust It by Schwarzkopf Professional is another great option. To secure your braids we recommend using small hair ties, such as the Invisibobble NANO.
Messy bun
For many years now, the messy bun or top knot has been a go-to summer hairstyle. It keeps your hair out of your face and looks effortlessly chic. The perfect messy bun is relaxed, but stays in place all day. Hair spray is excellent for securing messy updos because it delivers strong hold while still allowing your hair to move naturally. We love Wella Eimi Mistify Me Light – a weightless, extra fine hair spray that is invisible and dries instantly.
Casual low bun
The ultimate combination of elegant and cool, this is the hairstyle every fashionista should master. Use an Invisibobble hair tie or a Bellody scrunchie to tie a loose ponytail but do not pull your hair all the way through. For some extra casualness, pull a few strands out of the bun and style them around your face. Spray some KMS Hairstay Firm Finishing Spray onto your loose low bun to fix it in place. The product is quick drying, adds shine and provides strong hold.
