Spring has sprung - and so have spring hair trends! Although we haven't yet put away our parks and peacoats, we're looking forward to finally seeing some April showers and springtime sun. We talked to hair expert Gina Rivera of Phenix Salon Suites - who previously told us on how to get the perfect pixie cut - to find out about the latest spring hair trends and how to find the best one for you.
What are some of the biggest hair trends this spring?
Hair is moving towards a more feminine side. Your shorter, harder pixie cuts are now becoming longer and a little bit softer. We're also seeing a lot tousled hair, moveable, with a lot of texture. You're seeing a lot of long, layered bobs with really soft curls - and how they're achieving these curls is not with a curling iron but with a flat iron, so it gives the hair more of a wave and texture. You're seeing a lot of chignons, but pieces are coming out around the face, with soft waves. Braids are still in, but a lot of strands are pulled from the braids and curled loosely to give it a more beachy, summery, slightly wavy, undone look. You're seeing a lot of deep side parts in the hair.
