Welcome spring with these fresh and stylish trends.

Side-swept bangs offer a polished look that works great on any face shape. Whether you keep your hair long or go for the new cropped cut, side-swept bangs are romantic, fun and perfect for any season. Choosing natural, lighter colors for your hair will help you evolve to a cooler look for the hot summer months ahead. Be sure you talk to your colorist about the most complementary tones for your hair and face.

“To create and keep these smooth looks, use a smoothing balm and light volumizing hairspray-ideal for the summer months,” says Dorothy McKinley-Soressi, Vice President of Education for Empire Education Group. In the meantime, change up your style with layers and highlights for a fresh, fun and versatile look this spring.
