Summer's "Ariel Waves" Hair Trend Has You Embracing Your Inner Siren
Briefly

As summer approaches, beauty trends are simplifying, leaning towards natural looks such as 'Ariel waves'. This hairstyle, marked by large, beachy curls in vibrant shades like copper and red, has gained attention thanks to Keke Palmer's striking debut at a gala. Not limited to red hair, the style encapsulates an effortless, wind-blown aesthetic, making it a summer favorite. Coachella has showcased this trend, blending maximalist and effortless beauty while hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos coins and promotes the look. Celebrities like Dove Cameron and Dixie D'Amelio are also embracing and adapting the 'Ariel waves' style.
"I wanted to give Dove long mermaid hair but make it cool and modern at the same time," Giannetos said, reflecting a fresh take on the classic aesthetic.
What makes the style especially scroll-stopping? The texture. These aren't your typical beach waves or polished curls - rather, they have an undone, wind-whipped vibe that's undeniably sultry.
Shakespearean red and copper hues have been everywhere this year. Combined with the heat and humidity, volume and curls are coming together to create the ultimate effortless hair combo.
Big, beachy, and often bright red, 'Ariel waves' are next season's pre-eminent hair obsession, largely popularized by Keke Palmer's striking appearance.
