Warm sun-kissed skin, cool drinks, and trips to the shore are signs that summer is here. Head to the beach for some rest and relaxation during the summer months. Your hair deserves some time for relaxation, too. The pressure and stress from the daily grind can cause havoc on your hair by using too many products and too much heat. De-stress your mind, body, and tresses while relaxing in the sun with easy beach hairstyles.
We love beach hairstyles that use rejuvenating products, no heat styling tools, and look fabulous while relaxing by the water. These styles give your hair time to recuperate and keep your beach look in season. They also take into consideration summer heat, the frizz factor, and windy air that can tangle up your locks.
Stay cool on the hottest days of summer and keep your hair out of your eyes with any of these five styles. They are quick and easy for almost any hair type.
The Best of Beach Hairstyles: Braids
Braids are great for rocking at the beach. They’re timeless, easy, and have so much variety. If you’re looking for a simple twist that will keep your hair out of your eyes, try a simple french braid or pigtails. These braids are super quick and protect your hair from tangles, too.
But if you plan on catching some rays and want a braid that will turn heads, try a dutch or double fishtail braid. Both styles are unique and will look great no matter how hot or humid the weather gets. Use Kevin Murphy’s Bedroom.Hair hairspray to keep your braid set in place for your beach outing. The product will help protect your hair and stop it from slipping loose in the middle of the day.
Messy Buns
Buns are a great look no matter how curly or straight your hair might be. A messy bun is even better, and it’s one of the best beach hairstyles for protecting damaged hair. It’s an effortless style that is perfect for the beach, and you’ll feel relaxed before you even get there. You can add a braided leather headband to give a boho beachy look to your ‘do. If you have layered curls, let a few tendrils hang loose to frame your face.
Sometimes the risk of frizz can make you hesitate before trying certain hairstyles. But you can use Kevin Murphy’s Easy.Rider anti-frizz crème to smooth your curls and fight back against unwanted moisture. This cream will keep frizz at bay so you can spend your beach vacation relaxing.
Beach Waves
You don’t have to tie your hair back to look great at the beach. If you decide to wear your hair down while relaxing in front of the water, beach waves are a beautiful, trendy option. This look is all about enjoying an effortless, natural hairdo, and it’s perfect for an easy day near the water.
All you have to do is divide your damp hair into sections and twist each section until they form a low bun. Next, secure your hair with a bobby pin. When your hair is dry, and you’re ready to sit back and enjoy the sun, take out the bobby pins. You’ll have naturally wavy locks without the stress of bigger curls. Set your waves with Kevin Murphy’s Hair.Resort.Spray to keep the look all day long. The spray will add sexy volume while maintaining those beach waves.
Sleek Ultra High Ponytail
This look flows perfectly into the evening. If you have evening plans, but you don’t have time to restyle your hair after a day at the beach, keep it chic and simple. A high ponytail will keep you cool on the hottest of days while allowing your locks to flow freely. If you’re worried about your curls or fly-away bangs, use Kevin Murphy’s Free.Hold styling paste to keep your hair smooth. It adds extra hold so you won’t be late for your night out.
Short Pixie Cut
If you know the beach is going to be a big part of your summer schedule, consider finding the perfect haircut instead of beach hairstyles. With a pixie cut, you’re always ready for a day at the beach. A messy pixie is great for romping in the waves and fun in the sun. Pixie cuts are also a popular professional look, so your hair stays ready for the weekend and the workweek. In the morning, just rub a small amount of Kevin Murphy’s Un.Dressed styling paste through your damp hair for a flexible hold that will last all day.
After taking a dip in the ocean to cool off, don’t forget to condition your hair! The sun and salt can be hard on your hair. Use a nourishing conditioner to maintain your soft locks and protect them from future damage. Deseo Salon & BlowDry carries the full line of Kevin Murphy hair care products.
