Spring outfits call for Spring hairstyles, but that doesn’t mean you have to chop all your hair off. Sure as the weather warms up long hair tends to become a nuisance, but love and care was used to grow your locks, don’t just chop them off because the weather is warming.
In Spring & Summer I find the best hairstyles tend to be the ones that get your hair off your neck and face. Low fuss, no muss trends are my favorite.
Here are my top picks for quick and fashionable fixes this Spring 2008:
1. HEADBANDS

Headbands are back in a BIG way. Things to keep in mind, the smaller your head and features are the bigger and bolder you can go with styles, width and color of headband. If you have a big dome and big face, best to keep the headband smaller and solid tones. This will help keep your features in appropriate proportion.
2. PONYTAILS (Low & Half Pony ONLY)

Half Pony - The style seems to be teased and sort of pompadoured in the front. Or you could just smooth locks into a half pony. I hate when people make it sound like rocket science, if you don’t know how to pull your hair into a half pony you should run, because I think I hear your short bus leaving the station.

Low Pony - Just pull your hair back into a low, casual ponytail. Top off the look with a pair of your favorite aviators. Classic Spring/Summer look!
3. BRAIDS (they’re baaaacck!)

Formal Wear Braiding…

Cool Springtime Braids …
I think this is more of an artwork. I know girls who can whip their hair into an awesome french braid in mere moments. I unfortunately am all thumbs when it comes to braiding, I do however admire women who can pull off the look as I feel it is both laid back and hyper cool, very bohemian chic!
4. THE LOW BUN

Low buns are simple, messy and fast! Pretend like your making a low ponytail but instead of pulling the hair all the way threw the elastic band, loop half of your hair and leave the lengthier bits popping out in disarray. Takes literally two seconds and can be dressed up or down depending on where you are headed.

Hope this inspires your Spring hairstyles!
