What Does “Summer Hair” Actually Mean?
Summer hair is not one single trend. A great summer refresh can be as simple as changing your fringe and adding layers, or as transformative as a new curl pattern with a perm. It can also include:
feels lighter and easier to dry and style
has movement that shows up in natural light
holds its shape in humidity and warm weather
works with holidays, weekends, and busy schedules

Fresh Takes on Iconic ’90s Cuts
The 90s revival is everywhere right now, but the best versions are updated to suit your hair density, face shape, and styling routine. Clients at Cutting Club Hair Salon are asking for cuts that create movement, softness, and that slightly bouncy finish that works so well with summer outfits.
Flicky layers and wispy fringes
Flicky layers are ideal if you want your hair to look lighter without losing too much length. They help the ends sit with more lift and direction, which is especially flattering when you wear your hair down, half up, or loosely clipped back.
Wispy fringes can be a brilliant summer option because they add shape around the eyes and cheekbones, without the heaviness of a very blunt fringe.
The modern Rachel cut
A modern day Rachel cut is all about face framing layers, volume through the mid lengths, and a soft, blended finish. It is inspired by the iconic 90s shape, but today it is adapted so it can be worn sleeker, more textured, or with natural movement depending on your preference.
If you want that “lifted” look, your stylist can advise on the best finish for your hair type, plus an easy at home routine that does not rely on spending ages with a round brush.
Perms are back!
Perming has moved on massively. Cutting Club Hair Salon specialises in the latest perming techniques and can create anything from a soft beachy bend to defined curls, depending on the look you want and what your hair will comfortably hold.
A modern perm should feel intentional, not over-processed, and it should match your lifestyle. The most successful results come from good consultation, realistic expectations, and the right aftercare.
Men’s perms are one of the biggest trends right now and can be tailored to suit different looks and hair lengths. Cutting Club Hair Salon creates:
edgy, modern spiral perms
polished looking curls
loose perms for a softer finish
men’s perms designed for wavy, textured looks
Perm's for guys can be a game changer if you want more volume and movement, or if you want a style that looks intentional even when it grows out a little.
How Can I Keep My Summer Colour Looking Glossy?
Sunshine, holidays, swimming, and heat styling are all part of summer — but they can also fade, dull, and dry out your hair colour. The good news? Keeping your summer shade shiny and fresh is totally achievable with the right routine and a realistic maintenance plan.
First, switch to colour-friendly haircare. Sulphate-free shampoos, nourishing conditioners, and weekly masks help protect the tone and lock in shine. Think of it as skincare for your hair colour — gentle cleansing and consistent hydration make a huge difference in how long your colour stays vibrant.
Next, be mindful of heat styling. Excessive heat is one of the fastest ways to dull glossy colour. Try lowering the temperature on straighteners and curling tools, and always use a heat protectant. Even small changes like air-drying more often or embracing your natural texture can extend the life of your colour.
Summer also means more sun exposure and time in pools or the sea. UV rays, chlorine, and salt water can all affect tone and shine. Wearing a hat, rinsing your hair after swimming, and using UV-protecting hair products can help prevent colour fade and dryness.
Finally, regular toning and refresh appointments are key. Glossing treatments, toners, or a quick colour refresh can bring back shine, rebalance tone, and keep your shade looking salon-fresh without needing a full recolour. Your stylist can suggest a maintenance schedule that fits your hair type, lifestyle, and budget — whether that’s every 6 weeks or a few seasonal top-ups.
