Summer is here, and with it comes the delightful flurry of events that stretch from sunrise to sunset. Whether you’re attending a business conference or a friend’s wedding, it’s important to have a set of versatile hairstyles that can transition seamlessly from day to night while staying intact in the heat and humidity. And with this sudden heatwave, you may be wondering, "How do I make my hairstyle last longer?" - no worries! We've got you covered with some of the best hairstyles for work and play, along with tips on accessories, the best hair extensions and flattering outfit changes to help you look fabulous all day long!
Day To Night Summer Event Hairstyles
Classic Low Bun
The low bun is always a timeless classic. Elegant and sophisticated, this updo is ideal for work events and slaying your shift, making it a quick and easy go-to hairstyle for those who need to look polished in the morning. To make it last, we recommend using the best hair product for holding style: a strong-hold hairspray or mousse. Either will ensure that your bun stays perfectly in place all day long.
In the evening, transform this look by adding a pair of statement earrings and a bold lipstick. The slick back hair effect can be enhanced by smoothing out fly-aways with a shine serum or our moisturising silky hair spray, making your bun look even more refined. Pair it with a sleek dress and some strappy heels, and you’re ready to turn heads at any evening event!
Flower Claw Clip Twist
For a hairstyle that’s equally chic and casual, try the half-up twist with a flower claw clip. This hairstyle works wonders for keeping your hair out of your face while running errands and can be easily elevated for nighttime events. To achieve this look, gather your hair in a tight ponytail at the nape of your neck and twist until the entire ponytail is in a spiral before pinning it up with a claw clip.
For a nighttime transformation, add clip in hair extensions like a clip-in fringe for a touch of allure, and swap your flats for a pair of wedge sandals. A flower claw clip can add just the right amount of glam when paired with the right outfit, taking you from the office to a rooftop party in no time at all, especially with a half up half down hairstyle like our model showcases in the video above.
High Pony, High Drama
The high pony is an absolute staple in every woman’s hairstyling repertoire. But let’s give this classic style a little upgrade! Start with a high ponytail for a casual daytime look. To combat humidity, make sure you use the best hair products for updos, like a lightweight gel to maintain a slicked, snatched feel.
When it’s time to transition into evening mode, simply apply our wrap around clip-in ponytail extension for that extra wow factor. Our clip in ponytail extensions provide instant volume and length, giving you a glamorous look with minimal effort. Human hair extensions, also known as Remy hair extensions, are ideal for a natural appearance, particularly on hot summer nights. Throw on a pair of dazzling earrings and swap your trainers for stilettos to make a jaw-dropping entrance at any evening event.
Flirty Braids
Braids are not only practical but also incredibly stylish, making them one of the best hairstyles to transition from day to night. This hairstyle keeps your hair tidy and manageable, perfect for those long summer days, but can also create sultry, cascading waves by night.
To make sure your braid lasts, use a styling cream before you start braiding, which will add grip and keep your braid intact all day. For an evening event, gently pull outer sections of the braid to create a fuller, more voluminous look. A few sprigs of flowers or a delicate hairpin can add a romantic touch to this versatile style. Pair it with a maxi dress and sandals, and you’re ready for any summer soirée. Alternatively, gently take out your braids, comb them through and enjoy the magic of natural, heatless waves!
Sleek and Straight
Straight hair never goes out of style, but the real challenge is how to keep hair straight all day without frizz, especially in humid weather. To ensure extra smoothness, be sure to use our deep conditioning hair mask after washing and conditioning your tresses. Leave in for 15 minutes and rinse thoroughly before gently removing tangles with our detangling hairbrush. Finally, add a few spritzes of our heat protectant spray before straightening your hair on a medium heat.
To transform this look from day to night, jazz up your outfit by switching your blazer for a fitted jacket and adding some chunky jewellery to create a chic, evening-ready ensemble.
