5 Cute and Easy Summer Hairstyles – Summer is the hottest time of year, and it’s also prime hair season.
Whether you’re spending time at the pool or just running errands around town, a quick hairstyle can make all the difference in how your hair looks and feels.
These simple styles take only minutes to accomplish—and they’ll keep your hair off your neck while looking great!
Half Bun
A half bun is a great hairstyle for summer, because it can be hot outside and you don’t want to have your hair down.
To make a half bun, you will need two ponytail holders and elastic bands that match your hair color. The first thing you’ll do is put your hair up in a low ponytail with the back of it facing outwards.
Then take one of the elastics and twist it around so that there is a small loop sticking out on both sides.
This will work as a base for attaching the other elastic to form an X shape at the top of your head (think about how Frankenstein’s monster would wear his necktie).
Make sure not to let go or loosen any of these elastics until they’re all tied together into place!
It’s basically just like making an ordinary bun but with less material involved because we’ve folded over only half instead of all three layers together!
Braids
Braids are an easy and affordable way to keep your hair out of the way. You can have loose, messy braids or classic French braid styles.
Braids give you a lot of versatility, so they’re great for all hair types and lengths. They’re also extremely easy to take out at night, which means you’ll be able to do them in minutes each morning!
Stretchy Headbands
To make a stretchy headband, take a piece of elastic and wrap it around the paper that comes from your printer.
You can wear these hair accessories in a variety of ways. One way is to pull your hair into a ponytail and then wrap the headband around it for extra volume.
Another is to braid your hair, then secure with a band or other decorative accessory.
A stretchy headband works best for thick or thin hair (think Victoria’s Secret models), as well as curly tresses—it adds some volume without weighing down fine locks too much!
Pinned Back
This hairstyle is easy to achieve, and looks great on just about anyone! You’ll need: bobby pins or a clip, a hair elastic (or ponytail holder), and some hairspray.
Begin by dividing your hair into two sections—one at the top of your head, and one in the back. Then create a low side part with pomade or gel if you have it handy!
Next, separate the front section into four groups using bobby pins; two on each side should be above your ears, but don’t worry about getting every strand—it’s okay if there are some stray pieces still hanging down around your face.
Finally, secure these sections in place with more bobby pins so that they hold up nicely against any breeze (if applicable).
Wrapped Ponytail
There are a few things to consider when you’re getting ready to do the wrapped ponytail.
In order to get the right amount of volume, you’ll need a volumizing product like dry shampoo or texturizing spray that will give your hair more body while still being lightweight enough not to weigh down your style.
If you want height and length, use some hair extensions—preferably ones made from real human hair as opposed to synthetic fibers that can make your hairstyle look fake.
You may also want an accessory such as bobby pins or barrettes in different colors if you want some color variation in your look.
Finally, make sure that whoever is doing this for you knows how much shine they should be adding into their products!
