TOO HOT FOR HEAT

Written by Lily Han

Too hot for heat this summer? We made a list of great heatless hair styles to try out this year! The sun will keep your head hot enough (don't forget your SU Milk for SPF) so skip the hot tools and live in your heatless era. 

1. Ribbon braid back 

• This style is an elevated version of your classic braids. Literally so simple and makes it 10x cuter. Just add in ribbons, super easy and it keeps your hair out of your face during the summer sizzle. You can match the ribbon to your fits or add a pop of extra colour and immediately elevate your look.  
  • Kevin Murphy Shimmer Shine: Adds lightweight shine without weighing hair down. Perfect for a polished braid.

  • Oi All In One Milk: A Palm hero product! Detangles, hydrates, heat protectant and preps hair for braiding. Plus it smells amazing.

2. Ponytail Braids 

• Trend alert! This style is the new hit on Pinterest. When you braid your hair in the back, try adding in another braid or two instead of just doing one. I know it's a little weird but let me land. It gives a unique twist to your classic braid and adds some fun to it. This style may not be for everyone but if you’re looking to try something new then why not give this a go! 
  • Davines Invisible Serum: Soft, touchable finish if you want more of a sleek, laid-back braid with no fly aways.
    

3. Slick Back 

• This one has been a style fave for lots of people. The classic slick back bun. It’s perfect for summer to have your hair up and out of the way but it’s also such a put together look. It’s great for when you waited an extra day or two for hair wash day and the dry shampoo is just not doing enough. Classic, easy and very clean girl for summer. 
  • Kevin Murphy Session Spray Flex: Flexible hold to keep the bun in place but still moveable.
  • Davines Oi Oil: Smooths flyaways, adds serious shine, and gives that clean girl polished finish.

4. Headband 

• The effortless classy girl look. When you don’t have time to do your hair and need to be at the patio ASAP, this style is the perfect casual look but still super put together. Headbands made a big comeback and we’re loving it, it’s so easy and paired with some sunnies you have a full look.
  • Davines Volume Boosting Mousse: Adds a soft lift at the roots so your hair isn’t flat under the headband 

  • Davines Momo Hair Potion: Lightweight hydration to tame frizz and keep that effortless look.

5. Flower Claw clip 

• We are going to see the flower clawclips everywhere this summer! We already love a claw clip for that messy updo look but now look how cute the flower is. It’s obviously giving summer vibes and now the clip is basically hidden. It’s a classic look that’s already loved but now with a summer twist so the clip is hidden and the flower stands out. 
  • Oi Liquid Luster: A treatment you can use in the shower for extra glossy, healthy-looking hair even in a quick clip style.

  • Kevin Murphy Hair Resort Beach Spray: For beachy texture that helps the clip grip without slipping.

We love a good summer style and now you have so many to try out! Officially counting down the days for it to be 20 degrees plus again in Toronto. 

Happy Pre-Summer! ☀️
