Embracing the full flavour of the festival experience, the risky rock chick is willing to tackle any trend with a fearless flourish of colour and a knowing knack for seasonal styles.
She'll be the one seduced by this season's neon-hued, dip-dyed lengths, mastering the art of the matte finish and trialling unique retro-inspired updos.
Darren Bain, HOB Salons, London, explains: "When it comes to festival hair this Summer, it's all about combining influences of 1990s new rave and the 1970s hippy era for raw and organic texture and grunge-look colour in washed-out and faded tones."
"To create this look on longer locks, think about using products that create texture and volume, and advise your client to incorporate accessories such as headbands and scarves for an on-trend look which also complements the hair. Matte hair is huge this season too, and perfect for this rock-chick look."
