10 Summer afro hairstyle ideas
If you’re on the hunt for summer afro hairstyle ideas, you’ve come to the right place. Summer is a great time to rock an afro because it shows off your hair’s gorgeous natural texture, it gives your scalp a break from protective styling, and it looks oh so beautiful. Read on for all the afro inspiration you need for summer 2020.
1. Brushed out afro
Just look at all this beautiful volume! When it comes to summer afro hairstyles, we say go big and show off your length with a brushed out afro.
2. Mini ‘fro
If a brushed out afro isn’t your vibe, try a tight mini afro. This summer afro hairstyle gives you height and volume while framing your face.
3. Cornrows and a big puff
Combine cornrows and a mini afro puff for a textured look that’s super chic. Mix up the width of your cornrows, or try sectioning for a custom summer afro style.
Keep your braids and baby hairs sleek and neat with a strong hold gel. We love the VO5 Sculpted Mega Hold Gel for this.
4. Twin puffs
Summer is a great excuse to choose something playful. We totally recommend some cute twin puffs for hotter days.
5. Twisted out afro
For a textured summer afro hairstyle try a twist out afro. We love this low-manipulation style because the spiral curls give your tresses added volume.
6. Feature colour afro
Add a pop of colour to your summer afro style for a sassy look that shows off your personality.
A beautiful, bright colour is what makes this style look so amazing. Keep your colour vibrant with the Dove Colour Care Shampoo and Conditioner.
7. Full-colour afro
Bold enough to go for an all-over colour? Try jewel-tone colours like sapphire blue, emerald green, citrine yellow or ruby red to make your summer afro hairstyle match your skin tone.
8. Side-part afro
A great way to frame your face and pump up your volume is to simply create a deep side part in your summer afro style.
9. Vintage-inspired ‘fro
A style with history and sass, a big vintage-inspired summer afro hairstyle is the perfect way to show off your crown.
10. Curly afro
We’re total suckers for textured curls, and that’s why we’re in love with curly afro hairstyles, especially for summer. Accentuate your curly texture with some natural-looking highlights.
