When our Acting Senior Beauty Editor, Shannon, asked me to write a story about 'Leo hair', I needed some clarification. "You know, big, bouncy, look-at-me hair—like a lion's mane," she told me. (She's a Leo, she's allowed to say that.) It started to make more sense when I saw J Lo's birthday appreciation posts on Instagram, earlier this week. Of course, she is a Leo, and she has Leo hair. Yes, it's Leo season, which means from now until the 22nd of August, it's go big or go home. Think big bounce, bigger blow dries and even bigger volume.
As a self-confessed astrology girl, I can tell you now that Leos are known for loving the limelight and being the centre of attention. Right now, that same mentality is showing in this season's hair trends. Building on the year's current leading trend, the glow dry, Leo hair is bigger, more voluminous and more polished than anything we've seen so far.
