Expect one of the most popular trends of the Met Gala red carpet, seen here on Kendall Jenner, to continue on into the summer. “Mermaid waves have always been a client favourite, and it never goes out of style,” says IGK Co-Founder Leo Izquierdo. “But I think the style is unique in a way where you can create a wave pattern that works for your own hair type.”
Sza also recently wore a version of this look with her signature ringlets—and it was a total showstopper.
IGK Beach Club Texture Spray
Izquierdo says this texture spray helps get the “undone beach” aesthetic for your waves without excessive heat.
Choppy Mini Bangs

Celebs like Greta Lee got a jump on a fall runway trend with this rock-star-inspired look. “Fashion week showcased a mix of really dramatic styles, like baby bangs and slick fringe around the face,” says Izquierdo of the trend, spotted at the Louis Vuitton and Miu Miu fall/winter shows.

Celeb hairstylist Justine Marjan created this look for Ashley Graham at the Met Gala, and stresses the importance of scalp care—especially when using faux hair. “I applied Nutrafol Hair Serum to Ashley’s roots before styling her faux bangs to nourish the hair and scalp,” says Marjan. “The serum is my go-to base, especially for a taut updo, as it’s lightweight and helps to strengthen the hair while reducing visual breakage.”
Odele Cream Pomade
A matte pomade like this one from Odele keeps bangs in place without giving them a greasy appearance.
Rounded Midi Bobs
“Lots of celebs like Hailey Bieber and Kourtney Kardashain are showcasing this cut in really beautiful ways,” says Izquierdo. “I love the very effortless shoulder drop length, and I think this will have a resurgence as the weather gets warmer, and women will want a more carefree look.”

Another celeb who recently underwent the chop? Margot Robbie, who marked her post-Barbie era with a shoulder-length cut.
Dyson Supersonic Nural™ hair dryer
A bouncy bob is only as good as its blowout. Dyson’s newest model has scalp protect mode to help keep it from overheating as it gets closer to your head, and remembers your heat settings with each attachment.
Honey Blonde

The golden, luminescent blonde Rihanna recently stepped out wearing feels so fresh for the warmer months.
And to go along with her tenniscore fits, Zendaya also stepped out in a similarly sunny hair color while promoting Challengers styled by her longtime pro Ursula Stephen.
dpHUE Color Dream Demi-Permanent Kit
This demi-permanent colour from dpHUE can help blend in greys and pump up colour for a salon-fresh look. Plus, it works on virgin hair and lasts up to 16 washes.

The Millennial-fave style was all over the runways, and it’s celeb-approved too. Just look at Rachel Zegler at the Met Gala, wearing hers with a half-up hairstyle.
Kirsten Dunst has also been loyal to her side part, recently wearing it with loose waves at the Cannes Film Festival.

Briogeo Section + Style Pin Tail Comb
A rattail or pintail comb will help create a super-straight part, no matter where you place it.
Spiky Buns
For a summery style that keeps your hair off your neck, upgrade your cute little topknot with two stacked, spiky buns like Lucy Boynton’s.

For a more dramatic take, try fanned-out ends like the style Emily Ratajkowski wore to the Met Gala.
Nexxus Slick Stick Strong Hold Hair Wax
A hair wax stick, like this one from Nexxus, will help give ends that sculptural appearance.
