Hair inspiration pics for your post-lockdown haircut

The lockdown lob is #trending and these colourful hairstyles are pure summer inspiration


It’s been three months since most of us have been able to get a proper haircut.

And now that hair salons are officially reopening June 29, we can finally have those ends dusted, roots touched up or a complete colour metamorphosis.

It’s no surprise that lobs and bobs are trending (my long hair has been driving me crazy in quarantine) but so are all-natural curls and peachy pink hues.

Here are 20 hair inspo posts on Instagram to inspire your summer style.

Chic and textured lobs
