Is anyone else ready for a vacay? Whether you’re traveling far or just planning for local day-trip outings this summer, chances are, you’re looking for some cute hairstyles to help you switch it up for the occasion. We’re here to help bring you some inspiration!
Here are our top 7 vacay hairstyles for summer ‘18:
This style is low maintenance too, which is always a plus!
2. FULANI-STYLE BRAIDS! Fulani braids can add a little twist to traditional box braid styles. They allow you to get creative with the design.
Add accessories (beads, cuffs and etc.) for a little extra embellishment as well.
3. TOP KNOT WITH BRAIDS! You don’t have to add hair to get a Fulani-inspired look. Just add a couple braids at the front of your hair and you’ve captured the vibe! This style is super cute, simple, and quick to achieve.
4. BANTU TWISTS! What a fun and creative way to mesh different styles together!
Bantu knots in the front, two-strand twists in the back, finished off with metallic beads – we love it!
The best part is, this style, though it appears intricate, can be created right at home and should last a few days at a time!
Tip: While installing this style, apply a sealant to your ends to ensure they’re well moisturized and protected!
5. HEAD WRAP! Wanna keep your hair protected from the sun/elements entirely? Wrap it up! Head wraps can be stunning, not to mention they provide the hair with a break from exposure and manipulation. Pick a wrap with a fun pattern or bright colors to help spice up the look as well! The best part – if you really wanted, you could even multitask: deep condition underneath and no one will know!
6. PUFF PONYTAIL! If you’re up for adding extensions, this look will really amp up the average ponytail.
It’s fairly quick and simple to style and it adds some glamour to your vacay lineup!
7. FAUX/GODDESS LOCS! These are the perfect go-to for an island getaway… or any getaway, really!
If you love the look of locs but aren’t ready to make the long-term commitment, give these a try.
Have some fun with the color too! Be warned though, this look can be very time-consuming to install, but well-worth it.
