A forward-facing headband is a great way to embellish simple spring and summer styles; they’re on-trend, take the fuss out of styling, and different designs offer aesthetics from beatnik to bombshell. Whatever your desired image, when headbands  are worn from front to back, flowing waves and curls is the perfect texture to accent the look. With romantic tousle and flow in place, you can wear a hippy-chic cloth headband, a glamorous bejeweled version, or something slender that sweeps hair back dramatically.

It often feels like curly hair has a mind of its own because it’s finicky to take care of, especially if you don’t maintain it with the proper techniques and the right products. It’s also back in style, which is great for anyone –– like us –– that loves the personality of meandering texture. For curly heads, it means working with hair naturally, rather than opting for a sleek blow-out, is more than just an option –– it’s a necessity. The trick is to work with the texture, not against it. From cut to products and styling, our tips on enhancing spirals are in the style notes. –– Michelle Rotbart

In style and in timing, Jennifer Lawrence’s new ‘do is perfect. Presenting Bill Clinton with an Advocate for Change Award on GLAAD’s biggest night, Hollywood’s coolest kid showed the world the power of transformation with a tousled, shoulder-grazing cut. Reminiscent of Karlie Kloss’s ‘haircut of the year’  because of the creative, graphic, featherweight shape that encourages perky natural texture, Jennifer keeps it unique by wearing the style with more length, and with a definite side-swept parting. As Kloss and Lawrence –– two of the world’s most desirable girls –– are sporting loose and freeform, shorter strands within haphazard shapes and textures, expect shaggy to be chic in spring and summer.
