From your head to your toes, we’ve got all of the hottest summer trends covered here at Cole’s! Here’s what’s popular this season:
Hair: Half-Up Soft Waves
When it comes to hair, this summer is all about embracing effortless, natural movement, making soft waves a must-have. Whether you’re aiming for a relaxed, beachy vibe or a more polished “mermaid wave” look, texture is key and can be enhanced with some light styling products. Half-up styles are also super popular right now. They help keep your hair out of your face while still showing off length and texture, striking a balance between casual chic and refined sophistication!
Skin: Dermaplaning + High-Quality Products
Summer is a perfect time to reset your skin with a facial. We have tons of options at Cole’s, but the add-on everyone is asking for right now is dermaplaning! This service uses a medical grade scalpel to gently get rid of any peach fuzz while also exfoliating dead skin and buildup. It’s great for those bright summer days when every single facial hair seems to glisten in the sun, and your skin and makeup will look so smooth.
Another big trend in skincare is looking at a product’s ingredients — is this stuff actually good for my skin, or is the product going viral for no reason? At Cole’s, we use skincare lines for professional use only, and we personalize your experience based on your specific skincare goals. Eminence is an all-natural brand that only uses plants, foods, and minerals! They also plant a tree and help a child in hunger with all your purchases. I personally love knowing I’m doing more than just helping my skin every time I do my skincare routine.
Nails: Every Color of the Rainbow
It’s time to ditch the closed-toe shoes and let your pedicure shine. This summer’s polish trends are all about bold expression, playful energy, and a little bit of nostalgia. Timeless shades like classic reds continue to make their mark, offering a look that’s both chic and sophisticated. Try Gelish’s Scandalous, or Stand Out for a deeper tone.
If you’re feeling adventurous, neon hues are making a big splash, especially vibrant pinks and electric corals that practically glow in the sunlight. Craving something cool and refreshing? Ocean blues in shades from turquoise to deep sea navy are trending, capturing a dreamy coastal vibe. And don’t forget the sunshine itself! Bold yellows are brightening things up and giving a cheerful twist to any summer look.
The Let’s Roll collection from Gelish and Morgan Taylor is right on point with these summer colors, making it the perfect go-to for updating your pedicure game this season. Book that salon appointment and get your toes ready to turn heads!
