We’ve been enjoying some deliciously hot and sunny weather of late, which has certainly been a welcome relief after one of the wettest Mays on record… and it really does feel as though summer is well on the way now, which means we can now start turning our minds towards all the latest summery health and beauty trends to hit up over the next few months.

Where our hair is concerned, it seems that the wet look is going to be a very popular one this summer, with Glamour Magazine now reporting that influencers all over the place are starting to sport this particular look… and with serious aplomb.

Model Kaia Gerber, for example, goes for a very low maintenance approach for this hairstyle, combing wet strands out of her face and simply waiting for them to dry. An easy one to replicate, for sure!

And influencer Lovely Bryana went for a curly take on the trend, using a deep conditioning mask from root to tip, brushing it through and then using a styling gel to give shape to her hair before finishing off with a defining gel. She also ties a scarf over her hair to keep it in place as it dries - a useful tip for one and all.

But one of the easiest ways to hit the trend on the head is to copy Hailey Bieber’s updo, with your hair pulled back into a chic little bun… absolutely perfect for balmy summer days.

Another style you’re likely to see a lot more of at the moment is the shullet - a cross between the famous 80s mullet and the 90s shag, characterised by a choppy fringe and lots of feathery layers… definitely a hairstyle for the brave!
