Wrangle that mane! Here’s how to make your hair look totally amazing (and frizz free!) for the entire season.


Condition at the beach

It sounds kinda weird, but slather on some conditioner to your damp strands and twist them into a braid of bun. You’ll protect your tresses from drying out in the water or under the sun.
 
 
Suave Family Size Conditioner Tropical Coconut, $3, cvs.com


Rock a poof
No, not like Snooki. We’re talkin’ about bold ‘n’ bright hair accessories. Swap your standard elastics for crazy colorful ones. It’s an easy way to light up your locks, without putting in any effort.

Tame flyaways
Shine serum is officially our new strand-saver. This bitty bottle can go in your carry-on and zaps frizz on contact.

Keep your comb handy

Seems obvious, until you climb outta the pool with a tangled mop and no way to get rid of it. Pack your wide-tooth in your beach bag or pool tote and use it when your hair is still damp. This particular one was baked with frizz-fighting olive oil, to help keep crazy curls under control.

Remember: Braids are your BFF

Keep your hair off your neck by spritzing on some leave-in conditioner into damp hair in the a.m. Then, braid you hair however you like. At night, undo the braids to reveal pretty waves. Sooo easy.

I can't bring an entire bottle of conditioner to the beach. That'll be ridiculous.
4/5 still pretty good
Btw about that Snooki reference, I'd never want to look like her. I actually think her whole image is photoshopped.

im DEFFENETLY freaking out!!!!!!!!!!!!! okay so here it goes, my hair used to be medium - dark brown but before school starts, i decided i wanted , very fine,small , honey colourd highlights through it.BAD IDEA!!!!!!!! my grandmother did it for me at home cause it was gonna cost 95$ at the salon. But she COMPLETLY RUINED my hair!!!! im SO upset now cause the bleach came out REALLY bleach blond and to make it worse, she put it on too much of my hair so now the whole top of my head is BLEACH BLOND!!!!!! i HATE it!!!! ill put it this way, instead of my hair being my natural medium-dark brown, it looks like im a dirty blond color except the blond in it is SUPER bleachy blond!!!!!!!!!! I dont know what to do caus i absolutly HATE my hair cause now i litterally look like im wearing a witches wig!!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!Cry




Hey girlie,

Yikes! Sounds like a major hair nightmare. The best way to fix this, honestly, is to go get it professionally taken care of. I know it may be pricey, but it's worth it to do damage control. The stylists will know what they are doing and can get your hair back to normal. Good luck!

MOD i put sun in on my hair and i have medium brown hair and i was unsmart and put it on the top of my head too so the top of my hair is a light brownish reddish so my hairs staring to grow out so it looks like i dyed it and my roots look bad and i really didnt dye it. My mom said i might be able to get a hair color kit thing from like target or walmart that is closest to my hair color. Is that a bad idea or is there anything else that i can do? ThanksSmile

 

 

Hey girl. Sun in bleaches out your hair, so coloring is a good idea. Have someone help you dye your hair. I would suggest going to a stylist. It sounds like it might be a lil difficult to do yourself.

MOD MOD MOD. i need like a new hair style. My hair is a little longer than my shoulders. with side bangs. but its straight as straight can get and REALLY had to curl. I have looked on youtube for hair tutorials and most of them are like with a curling iron. i think those are really cute but my hair wont let me curl. and i pull my bangs back in the middle, braid them, twist them to the side, and pull them to the side but i want something different. Any ideas? thank you so much in advance. Smile

 

Hey chica, some simple changes you could try are hair accesories, like sparkly clips or headbands, and switching up your part (like, to the side if you usually keep it in the middle).  You might also consider asking the person who cuts your hair if they can show ya how to curl it.  They might know the best way to do it for your hair type!
