To maintain these long, flowing tresses, incorporating a weekly deep-conditioning treatment, such as the Kérastase Masquintense, is key.
One piece of advice from the salon floor: Always use a heat protectant before styling to keep your hair as healthy and vibrant as your summer adventures.
Silken Strands: Sleek and Sophisticated
Silken and sleek, this style is a nod to the refined side of summer. The straight cut exudes sophistication, while the hair color perfectly matches a sun-kissed complexion.
For those who love a polished look that works from day to night, this is an exquisite choice. It may not cater to lovers of curls and waves looking for a more relaxed vibe.
Sustaining this silky smoothness will require a powerful frizz-fighting serum and a dedication to minimal heat styling. A great product to keep in your arsenal is the Aveda Smooth Infusion Style-Prep Smoother.
Insider’s note: Never underestimate the power of a cold rinse post-shampoo—it can add extra shine to your strands.
Balayage Beauty: Sun-Kissed Perfection
The artistry of balayage comes to life in this style, where highlights rose gold and low lights caramel highlights play together to create a sun-kissed masterpiece.
This is the ultimate summer blonde hairstyle idea for 2024 for anyone looking to embody the essence of the sun, sand, and sea. It might be a bit daring for someone new to coloring, but it’s the epitome of summer hair goals for the adventurous.
The key to maintaining balayage brilliance is a color-safe shampoo and the occasional gloss treatment for added shine.
A tip from your stylist: A soft curl with a large barrel iron will accentuate the balayage effect, giving your hair prom that extra dimension and depth.
Beach Wave Bob: Subtly Chic
The beach wave bob is a testament to chic simplicity, its effortless waves highlighting medium lengths with sun-kissed grace. It’s the embodiment of a summer short style that’s as breezy as a coastal afternoon.
Ideal for those who want a blend of ease and style, this bob may not suit someone yearning for long hair drama.
To keep these waves pristine, a texturizing sea salt spray will be your go-to, giving that beach sun kissed feel without the crunch.
My little secret? Use your fingers to tousle your hair when it’s almost dry to amplify those natural-looking waves.
Golden Glow: Lush Layers
Here’s a layered cut that’s all about the golden glow. The delicate blending of highlights long layered provides a depth that catches the light, giving the illusion of more volume.
This style is perfect for those who love a multi-dimensional look but might be overwhelming for the minimalist who prefers short hair simplicity.
Regular trims and a protective hair serum, such as Moroccanoil Treatment, can keep the ends healthy and the color vibrant.
A styling tip? Use a round brush while blow-drying to lift the roots slightly and give those layers the attention they deserve.
Platinum Edge: Chic and Sharp
For those who dare to dazzle, this sharp platinum look redefines edge. It’s a bold statement of short hair, with a fun hair color that stands out in any crowd.
Suited for the fashion-forward soul, this look is a stark leap from the traditional long hair waves of summer.
Maintaining this platinum perfection involves a toning shampoo, like the Fanola No Yellow Shampoo, to keep any brassiness at bay.
And here’s a piece of advice: A dab of a lightweight hair oil can add shine and prevent the color from looking dull.
Vanilla Silk: Sleek Sophistication
Vanilla silk is the essence of this sleek, sophisticated style. It’s smooth, it’s shiny, and it’s perfectly platinum—a hair color that embodies luxury.
Ideal for those who prefer a polished look that transitions effortlessly from the office to evening outings, but it might be a bit too sleek for those who love a more tousled style.
To keep this silky look, a keratin-infused heat protectant is essential when styling, and a weekly deep-conditioning treatment is a must.
A pro tip? Always point the nozzle of your blow dryer down the hair shaft to maximize smoothness and shine.
