HowTo: 3 Easy Summer Hairstyles

Hello all!

I've had a past few busy weeks, so it feels good to have a nice rest.
So thinking of resting, don't we all want an easy go to hairstyle before we go out, well I've got a few ideas, just for that!

This is more of a wavy/beachy approach to it.
Hairstyle 1: High Ponytail - This is the key to summer hair, as it's so easy to do. Literally, it can be done within minutes. Now your probably thinking, why would i need some random person telling me how to put my hair up into a ponytail, but I've got a little bit of detail to add on.
The Ponytail is an amazing, quick and simple hairstyle. All you have to do to do it is gather all of your hair up into one handful on the back of your hair, then get a bobble and put it in. To add a more dramatic effect to it, all you have to do is loosen the ponytail and push it higher up the back of your head. If you have quite flat hair like me then i suggest you get a comb/brush and just backcomb the hair in the ponytail. This will help to make it look bigger and bolder.
This is a great example of
loosening the plait up.


Hairstyle 2: Side Plait - I love this hairstyle, as it takes seconds and still looks lovely! All you have to do it brush all of you hair to the left or right shoulder. When it's there split it into 3 equal parts and cross them over - here's a turtorial on how to do them if you don't know how: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UyB9XigBXM.  When you've finished, tie it together tightly with a bobble then start to just loosen up the plait by just pulling it out a little, but not so much that it comes out.

To finish the look all you
have to do is grip where
the arrows are.... back!
Hairstyle 3: The Off Sides - I wasn't sure what to call this one, so if you know please tell me! Anyway, this hairstyle is super easy and is good for if your going out in a rush. Firstly brush you hair and try and make both sides of your hair as equal as possible. Then you want to grab a small section out of one of the sides (from the front) and then twist it around, you don't have to go till the end, you only have to go up to the place where you'll put the clip/grip. Next, grip that in tightly because you want that twist to stay in and do the same with the other side. If you want to you can make it look more "boho" themed by puffing up the little space above where the twist of hair is!




Okay, so i hope you found these helpful/useful. I find when it comes to summer, i use these hairstyles a lot.

Talk to you soon...
