@ANNASARLVITIf you have mid-length hair, a claw clip couldn't be easier to use. Part hair in the middle and use the clip to scrape it back and secure it at the nape of the neck. Pull some strands out at the front for a super laid-back look.

@SYLVIEMUS_My favourite style note when it comes to claw clips? Instead of reaching for hairbands, secure buns and twists with a pretty claw at the back.
Photo:
@ANNEJOHANNSENThose with long hair don't have to sit out on the claw-clip trend. Gather your hair at the back, twist it up and snake the lengths back down into the clip—it's that easy.
This chunky claw clip is strong enough to hold longer, thicker styles.

@MONAMALI_When your curls need a slurp of extra nourishment, apply an oil treatment or hydrating mask, slick lengths back into a low bun and secure.

@KARODALLOn particularly windy days, always pack a hairband in your bag so that you can pull your hair back into a twisted low bun like this one.
Photo:
@ANNABELROSENDAHLProving that a low bun works for every occasion, a slicked-back knot makes for the ultimate office-appropriate hairstyle.
Use this rich hair oil to slick down flyaways and keep your low bun looking polished.

@NNENNAECHEMAmplify your usual down 'do by adding a row of jazzy clips to just one side.

@EMILISINDLEVA chic slide clip that acts as a pretty piece of hair jewellery and keeps your hair off your face? Count me in.

@FUMINATSUJISlide clips in clashing colours look great on bright, neon or pastel tones.
There isn't a single look that this colourful Gucci hair clip can't elevate.

@MSORRIGThe ponytail plait is a Scandi-girl classic, and for good reason. Just pull your hair back into a ponytail, secure with a band, plait the lengths and secure again for a pretty update on the classic pony.
Photo:
@POLLIANIPlaited ponytails look particularly great with balayage as they showcase the ribbons of blonde through the lengths.
Blast some texturising spray into lengths before tying up your hair to give your ponytail plait a lived-in look.

@MONAMALI_I love the idea of matching your silk hair scarf to your shirt. The scarf acts as a great way to disguise second or third-day roots.

@MARIEJEDIGNothing says summer quite like a bandana-style headscarf and some big, retro shades.
This silk hair scarf from Burberry goes with just about everything.
Photo:
@NINASANDBECHPerhaps my favourite Scandi-girl hair trend is what I like to call the laissez-faire effect. Leave your hair well alone and embrace whatever wave, curl, texture or parting comes naturally.
Photo:
@_JEANETTEMADSEN_If you have a natural wave to your hair, spritz in a salt spray and let nature run its course.
Photo:
@MONAMALI_Curly girls, put the straighteners down. The Scandi way is all about embracing your natural curl pattern.
Work this nourishing cream through lengths and allow hair to air dry—you'll be left with soft but defined waves.

@NNENNAECHEMSimilar to the ponytail plait but so very different, the bubble braid hit the big time this year thanks to Scandi-girl love for the style. For a minimalistic approach, wear your bubble braid low at the nape of the neck.
Photo:
@POLLIANIWhilst clear bands can be used to create your bubble braid, statement black bands look just as great against blonde strands (as do blonde bands against brunette).
This pack of mini elastics will last years, and they're perfect for a bubble braid.
Photo:
@annabelrosendahlTo add a fashion statement to your ponytail or bun, opt for an oversized scrunchie. Matching the colour of your scrunchie to your outfit will make this style look even more sophisticated.
Photo:
@deborabrosaIf you want something a little more fun, add a flower-shaped scrunchie for the ultimate Scandi-girl hairstyle. I'm obsessed with this look for summer.
This oversized broderie scrunchie from Boden is the quickest and easiest way to upgrade your hairstyle.
