summer 2016 hair trends

Although the quirky trend of double buns may have reigned supreme in the 1990s heyday of the Spice Girls, this eccentric yet perfectly playful hairstyle is back for 2016.

While we’re familiar with the mermaid inspired side braid at this point, the latest braiding trend doubles the fun with two plaited pigtails. Known as double dutch braids and sometimes referred to as boxer braids, this hairstyle is quickly replacing bohemian waves as a hot trend.

Although blondes have been experimenting with pastel shades all season long, it looks like the latest hair colour trend may become a favourite among brunettes. With colour looks leaning toward the rainbow bright and quirky neon, it’s no surprise that jewel toned tresses are officially here.
