Summer Hair, Don’t Care: Boho’s Must-Try Hairstyles for Hot Weather
When the Dubai heat kicks in, we know the struggle is real—flat roots, frizz overload, and sweaty scalps? No, thank you. But here at Boho, we believe your hair should feel just as good as it looks, no matter the weather. That’s why we’ve curated our favorite summer hairstyles for hot weather—all stylish, practical, and heat-proof.
Whether you’re lounging by the pool, brunching with friends, or heading to a glam beach event, we’ve got you covered with effortlessly chic styles designed to beat the heat.
Let’s dive into our must-try picks!
🌀 1. The Classic Boho Braid
Nothing screams summer like a laid-back braid. We love this look because it’s not only pretty but keeps your hair off your neck—a total win in the warm weather.
Try a loose side braid, fishtail, or a pair of cute Dutch braids. Want to add a little flair? We’ll weave in colored ribbons, shells, or even a pop of temporary pastel—super on-trend and festival-ready.
Pro tip: Braids also protect your strands from sun damage, making them ideal for your beach days.
🌊 2. Textured Beach Waves
The undone, tousled beach wave is a summer staple—and we’re all about it.
Perfect for that “I woke up like this” vibe, beach waves add volume and movement without the need for a blow-dry marathon. At Boho, we use lightweight sea salt sprays and curl wands to give you that natural, breezy finish.
Pair this look with a sun-kissed balayage, and you’ll be glowing all season.
☀️ 3. The High Pony with a Twist
Looking for something sleek but fun? The high ponytail is your best friend. It’s bold, chic, and keeps everything off your face (yes, even when you’re melting in the sun).
But we like to give it a Boho spin—think textured ponytails with waves, braided bases, or wrapped strands for a polished finish.
This is our go-to for active days or when you want your glam to stay put during rooftop dinners and summer night dancing.
👒 4. Messy Buns & Boho Knots
No time to style? Enter the messy bun—a lifesaver in the summer.
Our stylists love this casual yet stylish updo. We pull strands loose for a romantic frame and even add mini braids or accessories like scrunchies and clips to elevate the look.
Boho Knots, a softer take on top knots, are also trending. They’re effortless, breathable, and scream vacation mode.
💇♀️ 5. Short and Chic: The Summer Chop
Thinking of going shorter? Summer is the perfect excuse!
Lobs, bobs, and pixie cuts are not just cooler (literally), but they’re also insanely flattering. Our blonde specialists in Dubai can combine a fresh cut with cool-toned highlights to give you that glow-up you’ve been waiting for.
We’ll guide you through the best cut for your face shape, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences—because hair confidence is everything.
💦 6. Protective Hairstyles for Pool Days
Between sun, salt, and chlorine, summer can be harsh on your hair. That’s why we offer protective styles to keep your locks safe and stylish.
Think box braids, twists, or elegant buns that stay secure even during your wildest water adventures. They’re low-maintenance, long-lasting, and ideal for your next staycation or getaway.
We’ll also recommend hydrating treatments and aftercare to keep your strands healthy under the sun.
🌟 7. Add Accessories for That Summer Spark
Sometimes, it’s all about the details. Scarves, claw clips, pearl pins—these little extras can turn a basic style into something totally Insta-worthy.
At Boho, we love helping you style accessories in a way that complements your hair texture and face shape. Come in with your faves or explore our curated selection in the salon!
🌴 Heat-Resistant Haircare Is Key
Of course, summer style isn’t just about the look—it’s about keeping your hair healthy, too.
We offer custom hair treatments and recommend lightweight, heat-protectant products that hydrate without weighing you down. Our stylists can also help you build a routine tailored to your hair’s summer needs, whether you’re dealing with frizz, dryness, or colour fading.
