Wait, we should be more specific: There are six hair trends happening on Instagram. Everyone, from the most fashion-forward celebs to stylists and influencers, seems to be wearing the same six hairstyles. We’re not mad. How could we be? The six hairstyles in question are chic and low maintenance, which just so happens to be our fave combination.
They’re also very ‘90s’inspired. That doesn’t surprise us – not in the slightest. From the tendril braids, already a hit with many of us, to claw clips or flipped ends, a wonderful world of styles is yours for taking. If you’re thinking of switching things up, keep scrolling for easy but killa’ summer hairstyles that are coming in hot!
Here They Are – The 6 Coolest Summer Hairstyles On Instagram
Barbie Ponytail
The Barbie ponytail is hogging the beauty spotlight once again. Ariana Grande has been a fan since forever. Hailey Bieber’s been stanning it. J.Lo’s on board. And Kiara Advani’s given the style her stamp of approval, too. We’re not exaggerating when we say anyone, who is anyone, is slaying the ponytail RN. It’s sleek and snatched AF. So, we’re officially crowning it ‘The hairstyle of 2022’.
Britney-Inspired Pigtails
Addison Rae, Megan Fox, and more A-listers are bringing back Baby Spice’s signature hairstyle aka the half-up, half-down pigtail. The trick to nailing this style is to keep your pigtail shiny, smooth, and tamed. The hairstyle screams hot girl summer and is guaranteed to get you tons of compliments.
90s-Inspired Supermodel Blowouts
The vibe right now? The bouncier and fluffier the hair, the better. For Spring 2022, you’ll continue to see the ‘90s supermodel blowout dominate on social media. The hairdo is a classic hairstyle that can be fun, bouncy as well as messy but still looks very put together.
Claw Clips
We all have celebs like Kendall Jenner to thank for bringing the ’90s hair claws back into our lives. But the quintessentially ‘90s trend has been distilled into a more refined look to fit 2022. Made for all hair types and textures, sweep your twists and jumbo braids away from your face with this beauty!
Zigzag Parts
Many of us wore zigzag parts in the early aughts, but the style is back with a modern upgrade. We love this iteration because it creates a unique and edgy look and can be teamed up with any simple hairstyle. The key to nailing this look is creating a clean, sleek part. Then, you can pair it with a messy bun, a simple ponytail, or a top knot.
Flipped Ends
Well, the ‘90s isn’t the only decade lending its inspiration to the Spring hair trends. We’ve also seen tons of takes on the ‘60s-inspired hair flip. Even though it has been around for quite a few months, it’s gonna make an even bigger comeback in 2022. We think it’s a fun way to spice up a super sleek look this spring and beyond.
Tendril Braids
Baby braids have entered the chat. The cool-girl hair trend is taking the internet by storm, and it’s perf for hot girl summer. From Dua to Kendall and Margot – you name the famous face, and they have dabbled in the baby braid trend. These divas are elevating the baby braids to chic new heights! The playful hair detail is hugely statement-making but takes only two minutes to execute.
It’s time to make heads turn!
