BEAUTY BAR: Catch A Wave

Summer is all about letting your hair down and relaxing. We all want those effortless looking waves, perfect for going out for a night on the town or even just a quick coffee run. Some folks are lucky enough to have naturally wavy hair that looks like they stepped off the beach. Other folks (including me) don’t even bother because their hair never holds any curl or wave unless you spray an entire can of hair spray on their head.

When I came in contact with this Fashionista, it was obvious she was on her way to an important occasion. Even though her whole look was formal, it was almost as if she didn’t have to worry about rushing to do any last minute beauty steps. Shorter hair always seems to be in during the summer, easy to cool off with, but many of us should take into consideration the possibility of styling during the summer, especially with long locks.

This Fashionista makes a statement with her ensemble of head-to-toe black. Adding in her gold accessory pieces gives it even more of a formal essence. However, with a closer look, her loose beach waves give a relaxed feeling that is fun for any summer occasion. With summer coolness, wearing a sundress or even a little black dress, take a chance on switching up your usual do for these loose beach waves.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR? The best part about getting this hairstyle is the multiple ways to achieve it. If you don’t want to use a lot of heat and products, wash your hair the night before you go out and then braid your hair into three sections. After a full night’s sleep, undo the braided sections and lightly brush out. If you’re looking for a quicker route, use a curling iron to get the job done. Section your hair into two layers and wrap your hair to your root ends in a spiral motion. Once complete, repeat to the top layer. Once finished, lightly tussle spray a little bit of hairspray to lock in those waves.
