Obviously, if you’re at the beach this summer, getting into the water, lounging on the sand, and otherwise getting some sun, your hair will pick up the natural look of beach hair. Beach hair is that seemingly perfect combination of dirty, messy, highlighted locks that just looks sexy and fun!
The only problem is that not everyone wants to get into the water and spend the whole day at the beach just to get that look. After all, many people don’t even lay out anymore. The process takes so much longer than just getting oneself to the tanning beds!
So if you’re striving for that perfect beach hair look, what can you do at home? I’ve got some ideas to share with you so keep reading!
For starters, don’t wash your hair every day. Wash every other day or even every third day, if you can get away with it (I cannot, by the way!). This just adds a little more texture to your hair.
Add some highlights. Remember Sun-In? The stuff you spray on top of your head and then either sit in the sun or use a blow dryer? The heat is what is supposed to lighten the hair. I used to use that stuff every year when I was a pre-teen and a teen and I’m thinking about it again. I am so glad it’s still on the market!
Use a texturizing spray on dry hair. My favorite is John Frieda’s Beach Blonde Ocean Waves Sea Spray. I like the way the bottle looks, I love the way the light blue liquid looks in the bottle, I love the way it smells, and what it does to my hair. It’s especially fun to spray it on wet hair, then braid, and unbraid when dry and fluff with your fingers.
Enjoy your sun-kissed locks even when you don’t have time for the beach!
