Goodbye winter: Try out these Spring-worthy hairstyles
Winter is officially over, and Spring has sprung! Oh warm weather, how we’ve missed you. If, like us, you love to change your hair with each new season, you’ve come to the right place. To get ready for the new season, we’ve put together a list of our favourite 2021 spring-worthy hairstyles. With this list, you’ll never be out of hairstyle ideas this season! Keep reading for all the inspo.
Straight-back braids
A timeless classic, we had to start the list with the straight-back cornrows. This look is perfect for warm Spring days as it keeps your hair off your neck and away from your face, but it’s also tucked away on those cool Spring mornings.
TIP: When doing this style, be sure to not braid it too tight. This will help avoid discomfort and any unnecessary strain on your hair’s delicate roots.
Flower ‘fro
First on our list of Spring-worthy hairstyles, is the classic afro. Spruce up your afro quickly and beautifully with a few flower accessories scattered throughout. Add a few bright colours for contrast, like in this image. This is what we call a spring-worthy hairstyle!
Feature braids
Inspired by the 90s, feature braids are a trending spring hairstyle. These are usually seen as two centre braids, but can also be on the side of the head. For an extra fun vibe, add some cute accessories to the braids.
Bold headbands
We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again: headbands are one of our favourite accessories. And it’s no wonder: it’s practical and can elevate your look. For a spring hairstyle, wear headbands in a bright colour or with bold prints.
Jumbo twists
Versatile and low maintenance, jumbo twists are an ideal Spring hairstyle. Glam it up with some accessories or keep it casual and simple.
French bob
As more ladies are opting for shorter hairstyles, bobs are making a major fashion comeback. The French bob is fun and flirty, making it a fantastic spring hairstyle option.
The French bob is all about that gorgeous volume. Give your hair volume and hold with a volumising mousse, like the VO5 Extra Body Styling Mousse.
Braided knots
Spring is the perfect time to bring out our best, most eye-catching looks. So of course, we had to include braided knots on our list of spring-worthy hairstyles.
Keep your hair neat and slick while wearing your braided knots neat with a bit of hair gel. We definitely recommend the VO5 Sculpted Mega Hold Styling Gel to keep your hair in place all day and night, no matter the weather.
Blonde buzzcut
Not for the faint of heart, the blade buzzcut is a bold, daring look. This spring-worthy hairstyle will turn heads in your direction, wherever you go.
Bow accessories
Able to take your look from ordinary to absolutely spring-worthy, bow accessories can be tiny or large, and clipped onto your half-updo, bun, ponytail… the list goes on.
Undercut
There’s no denying that getting an undercut is a big decision — but man, does it look good. Spring is a time for new things, so why not try out this funky style?
Pinned-back locs
Take the iconic locs hairstyle to the next level by pinning them down at the front hairline. This gives them a unique sleek effect that allows your face to stand out.
Natural curls
If you’ve decided to embrace your natural curls, now is the time to let them shine. Get the most out of your curls by finding out your hair type and how to best take care of it — here’s our easy hair type guide.
Define and nourish your curls with the right products. The Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie is an absolute gem. It is formulated with silk protein, neem oil coconut and hibiscus, to style, moisturise and hydrate your hair.
Chic hat
Hats are a year-round type of accessory, making it perfect for transitioning from winter to spring. Even better, this is the perfect look to go for the day before wash day, or when your hair just isn’t co-operating. As long as you keep the hat on, nobody will know it’s not a great hair day (wink!).
Long and sleek
A classic for most occasions, long sleek hair is a great spring hairstyle option.
Keep flyaways at bay with the TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Shine Oil. It’s formulated with natural ingredients like marula oil and keratin, to keep you hair smooth, sleek and shiny.
Micro braids
For truly spring-worthy hairstyles, you can style your micro braids differently each day, according to the overall look you’re going for. Pair it with beads, a bright headband or gold clip-ons.
