The 12 Trendiest Summer Haircuts and Hairstyles

Sophie Turner debuted a super-convincing set of fake bangs while on her press tour for the latest X Men film. We love how the bangs are long and just graze the tops of her eyelashes, while her face-framing layers accentuate the style.

The '90s trend isn't going anywhere. Kim Kardashian West just debuted a longer shoulder-grazing lob that she's been styling curled-under at the ends. This retro-inspired style is equal parts prim and trendy—just be sure to invest in a good round brush.

Will the I-just-got-out-of-the-shower look ever get old? We hope not. Get this look by slathering on as much hair oil or styling cream you desire on dry hair (you hair should look wet–not actually be wet).

A top bun is perfect for when it's too hot to deal with something that requires anything more than minimal effort. Take a cue from Lupita Nyong'o and dress up a bun with metallic accessories.

The key to pin-straight hair in midst of all the humidity is a good anti-frizz spray (and a flat iron, of course).
