Hair refresh: 5 new hairstyle trends to try this summer

One of the most terrifying yet exhilarating beauty choices any woman can make is deciding on a brand new haircut. Whether itching for the French girl fringe or finally saying goodbye to those beyond-repair split ends, these five hairstyles will inspire you to give your hairdresser a much-deserved ring.

• Choppy Bob

The sleek jaw-skimming bob of years past has been replaced by a choppy version of the classic hairstyle. Worn in a less-done look, the choppy bob is a younger, more bohemian take on Kim Kardashian-approved cut.

• A-Line Cuts

Short at the back, long at the front, the A-line hairstyle is a striking look for any girl looking for a new, edgy cut. The slight slope slims the face and works beautifully with naturally straight or frizz-free hair.

• Curly Shag

Hair straighteners are barred from this natural curl-happy look. Reminiscent of a 70s boho babe or on-holiday supermodel, the curly shag hairstyle is a low-maintenance cut for curly-haired girls.

• Subtle Layers

Subtle layers are on-trend for long hairstyles this year. Softly cut, these barely-there layers will give your hair new life and sought-after volume.

• French Girl Fringe

Inspired by the Parisians, no in-the-loop 2020 babe will be able to avoid the “French girl fringe” hairstyle that’s already dominating social media. In this style, long hair is combined with a long curtain-like fringe that gently hovers above the eye. The hairstyle is ideal for women with natural waves or salt-spray manufactured waves.
