It’s no secret that Scandi girls know a thing or two about how to look cool. Their penchant for colour and a laid-back aesthetic makes for one hell of a chic recipe. Everything from their clothes to their skincare oozes effortless, and I want in. In fact, I’ve been scribbling notes on how to replicate Scandi-girl style for years, but it seems as though things are easier observed than done. When it comes to nailing Scandi fashion, I have to admit defeat.
What I have learned, however, is that a key part of any Scandi-girl look is a no-fuss, low-maintenance hairstyle—the kind that looks like you just sort of chucked it up and it just fell that way. And whilst I’m all too aware that effortless-looking hairstyles are some of the most difficult to execute, it seems that Scandi girls have struck the perfect balance between chicness and ease. And I’ve finally cracked it. Though my sartorial skills are lacking, I’ve got the Scandi-girl hair look down to a fine art, and it’s changed my life.
Forget spending hours clutching a curling tong. Nowadays, I wake up, twist up my lengths, and I’m good to go in a matter of seconds. My current hair looks are so good (if I may say so myself) that I’m convinced everyone has something to learn from the Scandi way. So whether you consider yourself a lazy girl when it comes to hair or simply find yourself stretched for time on the daily, keep scrolling for the eight Scandi-girl hairstyles that will change the game. And I promise they won’t take any longer than five minutes.
