6 Summer 2023 Hair Trends That Need To Be On Your Radar
From “it girl” cropped cuts to ’90s blowouts — the girls will be girling.
With the weather warming up, thoughts on how to revamp and rework your winter tresses may wear you low. After a winter of seasonal depression, we could all use a new hairstyle or color that helps us put our best foot forward and own the summer sunshine awaiting us.
Short hair is the reason for the season, as told by Pinterest’s 2023 predictions. Since the start of 2023, we’ve seen A-listers such as Hailey Bieber and Zendaya going for edgier bobs and other of our favorite girlies opting for cropped cuts. On the other end of the spectrum, thanks to the frenzy around The Little Mermaid film, beachy, mermaidcore hairstyles are subtly sweeping our FYPS. For the more laid-back ones, unfussy updos, buns, and messy twists are becoming reliable go-to’s, leading hair enthusiasts to find even more experimental ways to elevate these styles.
The thing about trends is that there isn’t just one trend to follow, especially on the beauty front — as that would be quite mundane. However, thanks to Pinterest and our own expertise, we’ve rounded up the six summer hair trends that will rule all season long.
90’s Power Blowout
’90s blowouts will always be a serve. It’s one hairstyle that we can’t get enough of because of the sheer versatility this style holds. Known as the “supermodel hair,” one flick of a good blow dryer (preferably a Dyson) and you will have instant “sex-on-a-platter” tresses.

Vintage Beyoncé Blonde
Not sure if any of you all reading this are old enough to remember Beyonce in her Austin Powers era, but the blonde on her was a massive win during that time. Her hair wasn’t icy platinum or filled with her usual root-to-ends highlights but a direct golden blonde. This type of blonde suits all skin tones and hues and is the shade that all of the A-listers are opting for when it comes to a blonde lift.
