Trend: Super-Straight

As seen at: Derek Lam S/S 2013

Make sure your locks are in top condition before trying this trend. Invest in a good oil that will add shine, while also protecting your tresses.

Add interest to your super-straight locks by twisting two strands from the front of your hair and securing them at the back with kirby grips. We love this look.

Trend: Retro Glamour & Best Blow-Dries

                                                       As seen at: Celine S/S 2013
Spring/summer 2013 isn’t all about messy waves and low-slung ponytails – there’s always room for an ultra-glam blow-dry and a sleek retro up-do on the runway. Here are a few of our favourites…

                                                  As seen at: Diane Von Furstenberg S/S 2013
Loosen up your fully-loaded blow-dried locks by tucking one side behind an ear and gently rubbing a few strands together to create a bit of texture.

                                                     As seen at: Giorgio Armani S/S 2013
Oh-so-slick and chic, this side-swept up-do is a timeless classic. Bring one side of your hair forward and create a sophisticated finger curl underneath a hat or headscarf.

                                                    As seen at: Marc Jacobs S/S 2013
A modern twist on the classic beehive, add plenty of volume at the roots but sweep your locks to one side instead of straight back.

Trend: Low-Slung Buns

 

                                                      As seen at: Chanel S/S 2013 

 Too busy for complex down-dos? This trend is your new best friend – the easy-peasy low-slung bun is back with a bang and chicer than ever. From centre-parted styles at Chanel to undone low and loose knots at Versace, anyone can nail this look.

                                                       As seen at: Givenchy S/S 2013
Create your look when wet and finish with a high-shine hairspray for a catwalk-worthy style.

                                                       As seen at: Gucci S/S 2013
For a more polished look, slick a section of hair from your ponytail into a sculptured finish, and fix into place with plenty of hairspray. This look would be great for a wedding.

Trend: Low Ponies

                                                        As seen at: Chloe S/S 2013
This too-cool-to-care tucked-in pony will be our staple festival hairstyle.

Pull the top section of your hair straight back to contrast the slicked-down side sections for a high-fashion finish as seen at Etro.

Trend: The New Fringe

                                                       As seen at: Giles S/S 2013
A good fringe is never out of fashion, but what delights did the SS13 catwalks provide in the way of bangs? Side-swept choppy numbers, faux fringes and super-short styles…

                                                      As seen at: Miu Miu S/S 2013
If you’re feeling brave enough, why not try a fashion-forward cropped fringe? You’ll need strong features and hair that’s well-behaved…
