For a lot of females, having long hair and locks means beauty.

Having long thick hair is supposed to show sophistication.

The summer season is like a world on fire, and accommodating the heat becomes physically relevant to both genders, which causes a change in style and appearance.

Brown, red and blond short hair cuts are expected to be popular this summer. Female celebrities like Boity Thulo, Bonnie Henna, Rihanna and Halle Berry are showing off their bold haircuts and now every woman is trying out this new hairstyle.

“I’ve found short hair is easier to maintain and it keeps me fresh and cool for the summer. It definitely helps with the boiling heat, and I like it because it makes me look edgy, and makes me look like I am a lot younger,” says a professional hairdresser from eNtokozweni on Pine Street.

Having short hair doesn’t means that you have learnt to be comfortable in your own skin.

From elegant dresses to short-shorts, everything goes with short haircuts. In this immense heat, short hair is the right choice for the season.
