6 Simple Ways To Boho-ify Your Hair, According To The Pros
If you've succumbed to a paisley print dress, some slouchy boots, or a crochet bikini, then chances are you're already well aware that boho is this summer's biggest trend. It doesn't just extend to your wardrobe, either; beyond the floaty ensembles and beaded accessories, perhaps the easiest way to emulate the look is via your hair. Instagram content This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from. According to Francesca Inverarity, hairstylist at The Hair Bros, the new spirit of boho for your hair marries elements of the '60s and '70s, pairing a soft, undone sensibility with an early Noughties grunge feel. 'Think Joni Mitchell and Jane Birkin's wispy, grown-out bangs paired with Olsen twin waves.' If that sounds appealing to you, here are six incredibly simple ways to bring a bohemian edge to your hair this season. Texture is everything The secret to boho hair lies in its relaxed, undone texture – and there are several ways to get the look. Hairstylist Luke Hersheson mists a salt srpay on damp hair to add grit and a messy finish. 'Ideally, let it dry naturally,' he says. 'Then take random sections from the top layers and use a wide-barrelled curling iron to curl them. Twist the hair as you wrap it around the barrel, leaving about half an inch at the ends for a more effortless result.' Finish by running your fingers through the curls to loosen them up, then lightly re-mist with a texturizing spray.

Broken bangs are the new curtain bangs
Forget curtain bangs , there's a fresh new cut in town, and it flatters every face shape and hair texture. The 'broken' bangs style is ultra-choppy and short, defined by its lived-in finish and distinctive central peak. It's longer and less intimidating than micro-bangs , yet edgier and cooler than its softly sweeping curtain counterpart. Broken bangs feel right at a time when we're shunning clean girl living and embracing a messier aesthetic . 'It has its roots in the mid-'90s grunge era,' says hairstylist Luke Hersheson, who has noticed an uptick in re quests for the look in salons. 'Much more versatile and wearable than micro-bangs, which tend to freak people out—it's slightly shorter in the middle and gets a little longer towards the sides.' Darren Gerrish It's this graduated detail (also a hallmark of curtain bangs) that makes it so universally flattering. 'When fringes go too deep into your temples, they start to look severe and don't suit everyone,' adds Hersheson. 'These are chunky, choppy and short, but they're still flattering on most face shapes.' Mike Marsland Dave Benett Celebrity adoptees of the look include Lily Allen , Mia Regan, Dakota Johnson and Joy Crookes, all of whom are proof that this is a style that can be worn in myriad different ways—a little dirty, grunge-style; sea-swept and choppy; or glossy and full. Closer to home, journalist Katherine Ormerod is also flying the flag for broken bangs, having tried everything from 'full Berlin micro-fringe to '70s Farrah Fawcett to bowl curved bangs' in her time. @katherine_ormerod Despite all her bangs know-how, broken bangs are her favourite. 'It's definitely the easiest fringe to wear because of its slight central peak and softly graduated shape,' she says. 'Think Sienna Miller in Alfie , Abbey Lee Kershaw in the mid-Noughties, Daisy Edgar-Jones now… It's such a specific cut, and you really have to communicate exactly what you mean—visually—to a stylist. Some people call it ' French girl hair ', but to me that's Jane Birkin's bangs, which were straight and wispier.' Paramount/Courtesy Everett Collection According to Hersheson, the piecey, choppy texture comes courtesy of the 'point cutting' technique, which sees the stylist use the tips of their scissors to create angles at the ends of the hair, rather than moving straight across. As for how to style it? If your bangs tend to spring upwards when you wake up, Hersheson recommends wetting them and then combing forward. 'Comb them down the forehead – especially if you have cowlicks – to help flatten it out, then let the hair dry mostly on its own,' he recommends. 'Try using the Hershesons Sock Diffuser, a fabric hair dryer attachment that blunts air flow but keeps the heat, which speeds up the drying process without running the risk of frizz or fluffiness.' Getty When the hair is nearly dry, take a medium round brush, place it underneath the bangs, and blow-dry the hair, taking care not to pull it straight. Instead, let the hair roll off the brush. 'If you pull the hair, it will ping out straight and won't hug your forehead,' he adds. 'The key is to be really gentle.' This article first appeared in British Vogue .
