28 Hairstyles That Are Perfect For Hot Weather

A haphazard updo gets dressed up with feather pins for an ethereal feel. This works best on fine hair that's not been washed for a day or two.

Sweep long braids up high and make the most of their thickness in a chunky bun that covers the whole crown.

Air-dry wavy hair with plenty of texture spray, before enlisting a friend to help create a fine fishtail braid, the messier the better.

Give a '90s topknot a more modern spin by pulling out sections of the hair by the ears, rather than at the parting.

Naturally curly hair can be a pain in hot weather, so rather than straightening it, work with your natural texture. Pin the hair back while it's still damp to re-create Aly's laid-back look.

Start from the neck and round the ears to re-create this look, pulling the hair back and pinning curls upwards as you reach the crown. At the front, tease the hair, and use as few bobby pins as possible to give volume.

Kate's ponytail may look effortless, but it's anything but. Create this in four stages: first backcomb and pin back the front third of the hair to give it a small quiff. Then pull the bottom third up into a high ponytail. Twist the remaining hair (including the ends of the front section) and fasten in another ponytail directly on top of the first, pulling it gently to give lift. Then curl the hair with a wide barrel curling iron to add movement.

Kendall's twist on the topknot leaves the ends loose for an architectural look.

The Riverdale redhead's superlong locks allow her to twist it round twice, into a bun that looks like it has two layers. Precision is key here, so use hairspray to hold down every last flyaway.

Four twists as the front of the hair are gathered into a loose french braid at the back. This is a great look for anyone who's growing out bangs or layers, as it'll disguise any loose ends.

Jen's topknot is simple and chic, with just a few soft hairs left loose around the edges.

Cornrows that direct the hair off the face are already great for keeping cool, but they double up as the perfect foundation for a chunky, curly bun like Tia's.

Julianne's hair may look really intricate, but it's actually just three french braids that have then been braided together from ear level.

Fishtail braids are perfect in the heat, but you can keep your neck even cooler by starting one after putting hair into a ponytail. Add clip-in extensions to help bulk out the plait if your hair is finer or shorter.

Pearl's a master at knowing exactly where to clip or tie her hair to create some drama. The general rule? However far forward you think you need to go, add an inch!

Karen takes gym hair to the next level with a bit of backcombing and some rock chick makeup.

Lea puts a spin on the tiny topknot by keeping the front of her hair in a sharp center parting. You may need to twist those front sections around the knot separately to the rest of the hair to avoid bumps.

Never underestimate the power of double dutch braids on superlong hair.

When you're as gorgeous as Gal, all you need is the same hairdo the rest of us use when we're taking off our makeup at the end of the night.

The classic ponytail gets an added twist thanks to two tiny braids at eyebrow level.

There's no such thing as too much quiff! Go big at the front and keep things simple at the back with this combo of pompadour and braid.

Leigh-Ann's topknot has mirror shine and feather-like ends. To re-create this you'll need a whole lot of serum and some strong-hold gel.

Hair extensions can be a pain in hot weather, but one way to keep wearing them is to start with a ponytail. Then you can indulge in longer lengths without the sweaty neck!

A high ponytail with crimped sections may sound like something straight out of the '80s, but Thandie is proof it can work.

Love a topknot? How about two?!

If you have thick hair, double (or triple) your plaits for added interest.

Jesy softens up the festival favorite hairdo — space buns — by leaving pieces out around the sides, and loosening up each twist so it falls a little softer.
