Tired of wearing your hair the same way every day? We spoke to John Frieda Creative Consultant, Alain Larivée (and owner of CAJH Maîtres Coiffeurs in Montreal), to find out what the hair trends are for the upcoming season. Check out three über-hot styles for the summer!
Style #1: The Messy Bun
The look: A ballerina bun that is loosely tied at the back of the head, at about the occipital bone level. This works well with naturally wavy or curly hair, for a stylish ‘do that is sophisticated, not stiff!
How to get it: Start by using some mousse or styling cream on damp locks, before drying hair with a diffuser. Then, tie it at the middle of the back of the head with an elastic hair tie, and pin hair into a bun by sections, criss-crossing bobby pins for a better hold.

Style #2: The Naturally Straight Mane
The look: Hair that is straight, but not perfect. The idea is for things to look effortless—styled, but not over-styled. Note that this look calls for texture, but not too much—“which is what separates it from the “beachy” style that was so hot a few years back” says Larivée.
How to get it: Start with some smoothing shampoo and conditioner. Then, use a round brush to blow-dry hair straight by sections.
As seen on: Jennifer Aniston at The Bounty Hunter premiere in New York City.

 
Style #3: The Sophisticated Ponytail
The look: A high enough ponytail with a lot of volume at the roots, and a bit of movement at the ends. Not necessarily curly, but not stick straight, either—a little twirl does the trick!
How to get it: You can use hot rollers to get some volume in right at the roots, and then do some gentle teasing with a fine tooth comb. Tie your hair back high enough on the head, and use a round brush and heat or heating iron to give the ends some movement.
