There’s a certain kind of girl for whom the gender-bending cool of a buzzcut coincides nicely with heatwave season, while yet another camp of beauties has signed up for the reliable wash-and-go chic of a bob. But let’s not forget for the seasonless joy of a head of air-dried, gloriously untrimmed hippie hair.
That’s right, the back-from-the-beach look is still headlining the look of summer, along with a mane of air-dried pieces to prove it. Take Victoria's Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel, who ran with the bionic hair growth that comes with pregnancy (and perhaps a few stealth extensions) only to cancel trims indefinitely with her stylist ever since. Fellow model Elsa Hosk also did more than make peace with the New York City heat, letting the steamy Manhattan elements transform her hair into a thing of surfer-girl beauty.
Zendaya smoothed out her augmented lengths this week for a school-girl style made all the more youthful with a few flat-ironed strands tucked behind her ears—right as Kim Kardashian took a lanky set of pressed waves out for an on-duty-mom spin. The bottom line? Practice your hair toss.
