GROOMING TIPS

3 HOLIDAY HAIRSTYLES

By Sam Higgins, 5 August 2018

It’s easy to get consumed with pre-holiday excitement, investing in countless new threads for inevitable pre-dinner photo shoots. But the simple things, like boasting a freshly trimmed haircut, are just as important. With that in mind, we’ve explored three styles that’ll have you looking sharp wherever your summer holiday takes you.

Short stuff

When it comes to holiday hair, the classic cut is a fairly obvious one: the less up top the better. It makes sense – the last thing you want on your relaxing holiday is to be faffing around with what your hair is up to or, worst of all, giving it a chance to interfere with your tanning. So, if you’re after a fail-safe option that’ll still look smart in your holiday photos, keep everything grade one and fuss-free.

Embrace the curls

However, if you’re blessed with curly locks, don’t let those years of eating every last bit of your sandwiches go to waste. Embrace the messy look by pulling your wavy hair forward and keeping the sides mid-to-short in length. The result: a laid-back style that requires minimal effort to achieve but will leave you with a great beach look (especially if styled after a dip in the sea).

Suave side-parting

Sometimes, keeping your hairstyle straightforward is the way to go. If you’ve been rocking the chilled side parting look since Year 7, why switch up your ‘do now? It’s a failsafe cut that’s especially easy to maintain when your hairline is prone to dripping with sweat in summer. Simply rub a dollop of pomade into your hands and run your fingers through each side to keep your crop looking fresh.
