Or just straight up ‘summer ready hair’, because even if you live in a really dry climate, hair can get crazy (and crazy annoying) in the summer heat. I know I am always search for the closest ponytail holder, to just get the hair off my neck/face/head. It’s the worst when you actually spent time doing your hair in the morning, only to catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror mid day and you get scared at the humid results that stare before you. Since no hair styles or tricks are fool-proof I rounded up a bunch of styles that would both look really great and help keep a handle on humidity/heat (a lot of them are great for short hair) — so you can test them out yourself.
The top one, is what I call: Just Go With It Hair, use a beach spray (DIY your own even) air dry your hair in a tousled way and just go with it — effortless humidity. [image via glam radar]
