Style Trends For The 2019 Summer

David Contreras • Aug 01, 2019

We all know that fashion is ever-changing, which is why we often look back and make fun of the fashion trends of previous decades. We might remember that the 1990s as a decade of Molly Ringwald, Madonna, shoulder pads and power suits , and realize that those trends haven’t aged that well. Of course, it might be tough to constantly keep up with fashion trends between your personal and professional life.

Here are some style trends for women that will certainly live on this summer, no matter how out of touch you are with the fashion world. Of course, you should always take weather into your consideration, as you ultimately want to be comfortable AND fashionable.

The Bucket Hat

You might not realize that the bucket hat has already been popular for decades, and even if it goes out of style for a while - it always manages to come back into the spotlight. They became popular in the 1960s partially due to entertainers such as actors and musicians popularizing them. The bucket hat is a great way to keep the sun out of your face during the summer, as well.

One of the great things about bucket hats is that they can work with both genders. One notable celebrity that has been donning the bucket hat is none other than the singer/actress/entrepreneur Rihanna, who has been donning the look recently.

Shoes For The Summer

There are plenty of great shoes to try out this summer, and one obvious decision you have to make is whether you want your shoe to  be optimal for the outdoors (hiking/hunting/beach, etc) or not. You should also, again, take into consideration the weather on any particular day.

Heels are a bit overplayed these days, and more modern women are searching for a shoe that’s comfortable as well as stylish. You should definitely have a great pair of neutral basket weave mules , because they are great for almost anything.

Switch The Hair Up

There are plenty of people that decide to go out more than ever, thanks to summer weather. One of the ways in which you can enjoy your summer even more is to add a little color in your hair. After all, one of the biggest hair trends of 2019 is having two-colored hair , which could be a fun and interesting way to express yourself.

Either way, consider treating yourself this summer! It doesn’t matter if it’s a quick shopping spree, a massage, or a trip to a professional salon ; you should set aside some time and money to treat yourself before the summer gets too hot. Enjoy your summer!

On Christine’s hair we started by taking 4 to 6 inches off the length and giving her shorter layers. Her hair was all pretty much one length. For the hair color we did highlights, a balayage technique for the lowlights and retouched her roots to match the lowlight color and give depth and dimension.

For both of them it had been a year, before the pandemic since they had color or a cut. On Janet’s hair the Auburn Bob Model we had already taken 4 to 5 inches off even in her before photo. Racquel as well with the violet highlights we had taken 5 to 6 inches off in her before also. Janet let me choose her color but Racquel knew exactly what she wanted and made the perfect choice…

Obviously lighting makes a difference. Amy decided to go red after retirement and we cleaned up her Classic Graduated Bob cut and style. I would have to say Amy looks good in whatever hair color she wears but she wanted a change and red it is for her new chapter in life. The darker red is the same color only taken indoors with different lighting and obviously less direct sunlight. In person it is beautiful in either light but on print it is more vibrant in the sunlight.

So Shelli came in to the salon after being isolated due to Covid where she pulled her hair up into a pony tail and went CHOP! Created somewhat of a mullet and needless to say she attempted the color which dried her hair out. Shown are her before and our first and most resent attempt to work with what she had done. It is coming along beautifully!

On Mary’s hair we did some fine highlights, we did dimensional lowlights to match her base color and then we toned the highlights with an iridescent ash. When she came into the salon she had faded to an all over brassy blonde everything had washed together and she had no dimension left. As you can see we gave her dimension back.

With Greatlengths hair extensions, the protein polymer bond method out intention on this day was to and density but when we added four rows of the extensions her hair and length blended in so well we just left the length and cleaned up the ends.Other methods of hair extensions offered are tape ins and hand tied wefts!

Our procedure for today was simple. Phyllis had been lightened previously we simply did a retouch with lightener on her natural salt and pepper and toned her with ivory and violet.

Balayage hair is a uniquely beautiful look. Unlike highlights, the hand-painted onto hair, meaning that it creates a smoother and more natural visual appearance. Each color blends seamlessly into the next, making for a rich and nuanced style.

When Gianna first came to me she had long one length hair, very beautiful hair but we gave her long layers. These are her photos with long layers.
