Summer is here and what better time than now to upgrade your look to fit the new season. One of the easiest ways to give yourself a fun makeover is by changing up your hair. It doesn’t have to be anything drastic; small changes can actually go a long way towards livening up your look.
Whether your favorite go-to styles are braids, wigs, natural hair, or straight hair, we’ve got some creative tips to take your hair to the next level.

Pink Braids
If you’ve ever thought of rocking pink hair but aren’t looking for anything permanent, braids are an effortless, damage-free way to try this playful look. The pop of pink on a women of color’s skin is just *chef’s kiss*. If you’re up for the look, try Chi’s Luxe Braiding Hair to achieve your Barbie-pink braids. Plus their French Curls style takes the braids to the next level.
Blonde Clip Ins
Stuck in a rut with your hair? Try blonde clip-ins for a quick and easy change-up. Whether your hair is natural, straight, or in a protective style, all you have to do is find platinum locks to match and voilá, you’re rocking a whole new ‘do.
Temporary Tattoos
If you’re looking to change up your look for a music festival or night out with the girls, try temporary tattoos in your hair. We love how celebrity hair stylist TokyoStylez added some edgy Guns and Roses temporary tattoos to Cardi B’s platinum hair. (Pro tip: This trend shows off best if your hair is blond).
Mermaid Red Braids
In celebration of the new live action film, The Little Mermaid, we’ve all been inspired by Halle Bailey’s red locks. Make this style your everyday look with red braids (or faux locks).
Short Pixie Wig
Looking for a complete hair change but don’t want the commitment of a whole new style? Try a wig! With the summer heat coming in full effect, now’s the perfect time to go short. Try a pixie wig to achieve a fun look—even if just for the moment.
