A fun summer hairstyle is just what I needed this week. I just love this time of year- summer is just around the corner! Naturally, as the weather changes so does my hairstyle. However, I am feeling like I need something new. My usual summer top knot, braids, or loose ponytail is just getting a bit…well, boring.
So, this week while I was in the shower (the place where I have most of my revelations) I came up with a fast and easy fun summer hairstyle that can be dressed up for a weekend date night or dressed down for a day at the beach.
I also chose to wear a vintage inspired blue shirt with red tiny polka-dots that I thought would look great with this hairstyle. It’s from a cute online clothing shop called Asuyeta where the clothing is custom made to fit your individual body! How cool is that?
Fun Summer Hairstyle Tutorial
Did you catch that? Now, if you are like me- I need even more visuals to figure out what is really going on.
So how about a short little video tutorial on how to achieve this look.
Go here to watch it.
Tips that make this hair style even better?
-Day-old hair is best (not washed)
– Add more bobby pins at the end to make sure it is secure
-Hairspray helps it stay in place
-Add braids, flowers, or ribbons to the final product to change the look
You can find more photos of this hair style that I did on my friend Camilla right here.

Terri Betz says
Thanks! My long hair makes me crazy when it’s hot! Sometimes I just tie it in knots! 🙁 Bad…I know…but now I’ll do this!
Alison says
Oh this is so pretty! I miss my long hair…
Anonyvox says
Ooh, I really like that! My hair is long, but all-over layers. How would you deal with the shorter pieces in the front that want to escape the side twists?
darlene says
can’t wait to try this!! i have thick, heavy hair so anything to keep it off my neck is great! this is such a cute hairstyle!
Bobbi says
I really love this. Now I wish my hair was longer. Thankfully I have a daughter with hair long enough for this. Thanks!
Janet James says
Wow, very sexy and sophisticated. Could see this on the red carpet or at the beach pretty easily.

I love this! I do something really similar, but instead of tying pieces back I use a flower hairband. Thanks for the idea!!
Missy says
I am always on the look out for new ways to get my hair out of my face! Gotta try this!
Erin Ashley says

Example 6 and 7 doesnt make much sense…are you looping it through? Maybe you should write to us with each pic and explaining better.
P.s theres a much easier way to do the same style.

Sorry it is confusing- my dark hair makes it difficult to see. Here is a post I did on my blog with my friend who had red hair and it may be easier to tell http://trulymodlydeeply.blogspot.com/2012/05/my-new-summer-hair-creation-in-just.html.
Also, check out the video that goes along with this post here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx-uguylQwU&feature=youtu.be it once was embeded so it was easy to click on and watch.
There are several ways to achieve this look- here is just another idea that works the best for me. 🙂
