When the summer arrives, we all know just how hot it’s going to get, and the heat of the sun can play havoc with our hair. Dried-out locks and frizzy waves are not a good look, so ensuring you have the perfect cut for the summer is the first step to ensuring your hair is both manageable and looks great, however hot it gets.
We’ve selected five summer styles which suit different hair types. Which one will you choose?
1. Classic Crew Cut
It’s no secret that we’re fans of the classic crew cut at Chaps & Co., it’s a style that never goes out of fashion and is extremely easy to manage and maintain. Any decent barber will know exactly what you mean when you ask for this cut, and you can keep it truly classic or customise it to suit your personal style. The crew cut complements almost all face shapes and all hair textures too.
2. Relaxed Waves
Curly or wavy hair doesn’t have to be kept long when the heat gets too much and if you enjoy showing off the natural texture of your hair, you don’t have to keep it super short either. You can keep those waves or curls short but still maintain their texture, allowing them to fall into loose tousled waves that’s both easy to maintain and look totally natural. Sea salt spray is your best choice for bringing out the natural texture of your hair and accentuating those curls and waves.
3. Textured Crop
Modern and effortlessly summery, textured crops are suitable for all hair types and allow you to get the most out of your natural hair. A textured crop features slightly longer hair on the top with shorter sides and a textured finish. It’s a versatile choice and you can ask your barber to opt for a style that suits your hair type. This style is also popular because it’s minimal effort and requires very little maintenance. When it comes to styling use a matte product such as clay.
4. Short Pompadour
Staying cool in the summer doesn’t mean shaving off all your hair and if you like to keep some volume and weight to your look, then a short pompadour could be your perfect choice. With a short pompadour, you benefit from short sides to keep you cool without losing the length on the top. Teaming a pompadour with a low fade and longer length at the front of your head allows you to maintain that longer hair look yet remain cool.
5. Messy French Crop
The French crop never goes out of fashion but for a relaxed, summery look you might want to consider a more relaxed look. The classic French crop features a long top, blunt fringe and super short back and sides. However, if you want a messier look, it simply uses styling products which create shapes and angles to the top, rather than a blended, smooth look. The messy look is contemporary and a little less formal than your classic crop.
