5 Steps to Achieving Carefree Summer Curls or Waves

By


Whether you’re going for bouncy curls or lived-in waves, the beauty of carefree summer hairstyles is that they don’t take that much effort. But you do need a lineup of easy-to-use, versatile products to create your desired looks. Get into the spirit of summer with the following styling and product tips.

1. Clean and Dry for a Fresh Start

Cleanse, replenish, and add moisture with a shampoo and conditioner suited for your hair type or texture. If you already have curly hair, use products that enhance your curls, not weigh them down. If you have color-treated blonde hair, be sure to use a toning purple shampoo for blonde hair weekly to keep brassiness at bay. After a wash, you can air-dry or lightly blow-dry.

2. Use Heat Protectants: Leave-In Spray and Styling Cream

Heat styling is often involved with carefree summer hairstyles, so be sure to protect your strands from both heat and UV with a lightweight heat protectant spray that helps tame frizz and detangle your hair before drying. Curl cream definers and styling creams are also great for definition and control. Search for an option that offers UV/heat protection.

3. Section and Curl

Section your hair into three parts: base, mid, and top. Start curling from the base and work your way up to the top. You don’t want to skip this step if you’re curling every part of your hair. A curling iron with a 1-inch barrel works for most lengths. For simple waves, wrap a section of hair around the barrel, working your way from the root to the ends.

4. Finger Comb and Lightly Scrunch

Once your curls are cool, gently separate them with your fingers for a natural-looking finish. Summer hairstyles are light and breezy, so even if every curl doesn’t look perfect, it’s no big deal. For tousled texture and weightless volume, try a sea salt spray and scrunch on dry hair, or use it on damp hair to air-dry.

5. Amplify Volume and Top Off Your Style

For a perfect finishing touch, try a texturizing spray hair stylists use. A dry finishing spray offers soft, movable hold while delivering a final boost of weightless volume and texture. Use this product on dry hair only. Now you’re ready for fun in the sun this summer.
