Summer Hair Inspiration

Summer is just around the corner and what a better time to change a little something about yourself! Most people think of long, wavy hair during this season, but here are some sexy and chic looks to try out instead. Take a risk, go beyond the obvious and try something new!

Look 1: Highlighted and Curly Bob

        When the weather starts heating up, you might want to cool down. Short and fresh hair makes day-to-day activities much simpler. Blonde highlights give hair a beautiful shine in the summer sun and gives hair a beachy-textured look. Bobs are still at a perfect length to curl, making beach-curls still possible! If you're going to try this look, take a picture (or even this one) into your hairdresser. The best way to get the look you want is to give a visual example.

Look 2: Bohemian and Light
 

        
       Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen have been known for their bohemian-chic style. This classic summer look may be achieved with some simple hair products. Beach hair looks best when texturized, aka sea salt spray. Companies like Bumble & Bumble carry sea salt spray, drug stores carry a cheaper alternative, or you can even DIY your own! To make your beach-hair more bohemian, add a couple of small braids.
 
Look 3: Pink


 
        If you're blonde, freshen up your look by going a couple shades lighter then dying your hair light pink! Light pink hair is cute yet edgy and fresh. A cotton candy pink is subtle and pretty in the sun. During spring and summer, hair should be lighter in color for a more fresh appearance. Manic Panic's cotton candy pink hair dye is vegan and has had tons of great reviews.
 
Look 4: Braided Beauty

 
        Julianne Hough nailed this look perfectly. A braided crown can be for special occasions or just for a mess-free day. Elegant and beautiful, this hair keeps the hair out of your face for when you're doing activities and is also perfectly polished for getting dressed-up.
