Summer 2003 is the time for the very simplest of hairstyles, hairdressers say. So let your hair fall into place naturally. It's a mistake to fight the natural texture of your hair. It's more modern and practical to accept the texture of your hair and to play it up. In the long run, doing so is always more flattering and less time-consuming.
Summer is also the time to moisturize your hair with masks. Before jumping in the pool also protect your hair from chlorine by rubbing in a moisturizing agent. Stylists even recommend applying a little olive oil to revive hair. You can apply olive oil to dry hair and wear a hat all day or cover with a scarf.
No matter how long or short your hair is, you can use a headband for a quick and easy style. Add some styling gel to damp hair and comb through. Use your fingers to smooth the hair and use a headband or wraparound to hold the style.
If your hair is fine and straight, add texture and shape with defining wax. Apply the wax to the ends of your hair with fingertips (avoid the root area or the style will be weighed down). This will give you a piecey, textured look.
Anyone with thick, curly hair should start with smoothing balm to reduce frizz. Then simply pull your hair into a high ponytail and secure with an elastic band.
For shoulder-length and long hair, try a sleek upsweep. Apply hair balm on damp hair, gather at the nape of your neck and twist upward. Secure with pins and allow ends to flow free. Finish with hair spray.
