Soft, Beachy, Effortless: Utah’s Most Requested Summer Hair Styles

Brooklynne Gibbons • June 19, 2026

Summer hair is all about looking polished without feeling overdone.


This season, we're seeing a shift toward softer colors, natural textures, and styles that grow out beautifully. Whether your hair is straight, wavy, curly, blonde, brunette, or somewhere in between, the biggest trend is simple: healthy hair that feels effortless.

Lived-In Blonde


Bright, dimensional blondes continue to be one of Utah's most requested looks. Soft root melts and seamless blends create a lower-maintenance blonde that looks beautiful long after you leave the salon.


Beachy Texture


Forget stiff curls and overly styled waves. Today's beachy hair is soft, airy, and touchable. The goal is movement that looks natural and effortless—like you spent the day enjoying summer, not hours styling your hair.

Expensive Brunette


Rich brunettes are having a major moment. Glossy chocolate tones, subtle dimension, and healthy shine create a look that feels timeless, sophisticated, and easy to maintain.


Face-Framing Layers


A few strategic layers can completely refresh your look. Face-framing pieces add softness, movement, and versatility whether you wear your hair straight, curled, up, or down.

Embracing Natural Texture


One of our favorite trends this summer is seeing clients embrace their natural waves and curls. Customized cuts, hydration-focused routines, and texture-specific styling help enhance what your hair naturally does best.


Seamless Extensions


For those wanting extra fullness or length, extensions remain a summer favorite. Modern extension methods are designed to blend naturally, creating beautiful results that look and feel like your own hair.


Utah's dry climate, sun exposure, and pool days can take a toll on your hair. That's why the best summer style isn't just about following trends—it's about choosing a look that fits your lifestyle while keeping your hair healthy.


At Ottalaus, we believe the best hair is hair that feels like you. Whether you're dreaming of brighter blonde, richer brunette, defined curls, or added volume, we'll help create a look tailored to your goals.


Because effortless hair should actually feel effortless.
