Gorgeous hair, no blow-dryer required

Give your bathroom outlet a breather-because the seasons best locks looks have a carefree, flirtatiously, quality that you can't get from tough styling. Just follow our refreshing simple instructions to score this tress effect.

Sexy sloppy braids

These girlie braids are definitely the way to go on a hot day. Why do they look sexier kitten than schoolgirls? It’s because they’re imperfect-sort of frayed and fluffed up. To weave them into your do, take these tips:

Ø  First, apply a shine-enhancing product to wet or towel dried hair, it will boost the gleam factor and prevent a frizz fest.
Ø  Make sure your hair is totally dry before you start braiding; wet braided hair will take longer to dry and will look thin when you’re done.
Ø  Once hair is dry, create a slightly crooked center part from your forehead to your nape, separating your name into two equal sections.
Ø  Braid each section, starting around ear level. Secure the braids pull out tiny pieces along the sides to make plaits look blown about and a bit unkempt.



The perfect summer ponytail

The ponytail is the world’s best style for a don’t-want-stress-about-your-strands day. And it looks super sexy if you keep it well-groomed in the front and totally undone in the back. To score this hot combo of sleekness and sloppiness:

Ø  Start with an allover sprit zing of a style for a styling gel or spray that texturizes on towel-dried or so dry hair, and then follow with a good scrunching to score that beachy windswept look.
Ø  Next, brush a pea-size dab of pomade through the top and sides of your hair to smooth out those sections.
Ø  Now pull everything back into a high ponytail-the base of the ponytail should be at the back of your crown area.
Ø  Scrunch up the ponytail and separate any thick pieces to get a very sexy, untamed effect. “Having the top and sides slicked back and shiny adds polish, so the back can be totally wild,”
Ø  If your ponytail tends to be limper than you’d like, ask your stylist to snip some long layers all over to encourage volume,


Beach-babe waves

Let your tresses hang ten with a hairstyle that’s rippled with fetching, free-flowing waves. The natural texture and movement of this natural effect gives your name loads of carefree foxiness. To create this look:

Ø  Comb towel-dried hair, and then create a slightly crooked center part using your finger instead of a comb or brush.

Ø  Work a bit of curl-enhancing cream into your palms, then spread it evenly over your hair. If you’re naturally a straight-stranded gal, twist one-inch sections around your finger, then slip your finger out to create curls.
Ø  To boost volume at the roots, periodically tousle them while you’re air-drying, then let the randomly scattered sections stay put until you tousle again about 10 minutes later.
Ø  If your hair is already wavy or curly, you’re halfway there! Instead of trying to brush out kinks and curls straight, avoid a puffed-out hair style and use a protein treatment product to weigh down unruly strands. Your hair will air dry to a sexier main of waves.
Ø  The finishing touch? A flirty flower accessory pinned at one side. Go for a bright color that contrasts with your hair type. The ones we’re crazy about.
