Spring breathes fresh life into everything around it. And why shouldn’t our dull winter hair get the same deal? This season, we’re seeing a new gang of spring hair trends come onto the scene, and these cuts, colors, and accessories don’t play around. Get your hair color ready for the good times coming by warming it up, just like those rising spring temperatures. Every shade can get in on the fun, from golden copper to butter blonde to warm chocolate. (But loyal cool-toned ladies, don’t fret. There’s an icy-hot color in the mix for you, too.)As far as cuts, you won’t be seeing the same look again and again. (Cough, beach waves, cough.) Between the bobs, lobs, and layers, it’s a toss-up of stylish proportions. Low maintenance is the singular common thread, and one we can get on board with. Whether coming right off the Spring 2020 runways—looking at you, retro hair accessories—or being plucked straight from the coolest of salons—we see you, blunt bob—these spring hair trends are sure to cause a stir and add some major spice to your spring trim.

Choppy Lobs

@petermenezes

Since all things 90's-related have made their way back to the fashion world—chokers, scrunchies, and Mom jeans to name a few—it makes sense that hair is going back, too. Blunt bobs, choppy lobs, and super straight locks!

Low Ponytails

@thisislaurendavis

Give that perky ponytail a break for the season—low ponytails are all the rage. You can keep it simple and sleek, throw in a braid (like seen here), or give it a pop of personality with a fun clip.

Super Straight Styles

@chrisjones_hair

Those perfectly undone-done beach waves are being dethroned by something a little more retro: super straight strands. This trend makes any bob or shoulder cut look so much more stylish, like seen here with this cut by Texas-based stylist Chris Jones.

Scandanavian Blonde

One exception to the warm colors: Scandanavian blonde. This blonde is so icy that it's hot. It might be the most show-stopping spring hair color to hit this season á la stylist Joey Perrotti of Nine Zero One salon.
