Hair styling trends for summer 2011: beach babe texture
Hair by Kate Mulcahy at Lisa Shepherd
When Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, stepped out of Westminster Abbey followed by her sister, Pippa Middleton, just over a month ago, Andrew Barton declared on Twitter that it was the start of the demise of irons. Clients would follow suit and opt for soft, textured tresses rather than smooth, straight styles.
Hot, humid days mean women don't want to fight against frizz, and tend to be more relaxed about their hair than in Winter months. So if your clients want a change for Summer, here is a selection of products to get the look.
Beach Babe Hair
Simple, sultry and fun, this look is the perfect holiday companion. Quick and easy to achieve, it takes the wearer from day to night in a flash. Throw on a hat or Summer scarf and the soft waves will give it a fashionable feel. Fans of the look include presenter Jameela Jamil, actress Karen Gillan and model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
