3 summer hair trends inspired by celebs

Check these out, too...

  • 5 safest sunscreen picks of the season (and serious dos and don'ts)
  • The biggest OMG celeb moments of the week
  • Get perfect beach waves without setting foot on the sand
The red carpet may be synonymous with glamour, but even the A-listers know to keep it a li’l more low-key once the warm weather strikes. Here are three mane trends we just can’t get enough of. Hint: You’ll be sporting these pretties far into fall. Hurrah!

Beachy waves
Surf-inspired tresses have officially taken over and, um, we’re totally OK with it. It’s perf for girls whose typically in between hair (you know: some parts are wavy and others are straight) is impossible to wrangle. Click here for the how-to.

 
Psst: How rad are Leighton’s highlights? We’ll be craving those streaks come autumn!

Short strands
OK, we nearly died when Dakota Fanning stepped out with tiny tresses last week. Luckily, the unflattering cut was just a fake-out for a movie. But close crops are beyond hot right now and will keep you cool during the hottest of summer days.

 
Center parts (with plenty of shine)
A coif that’s parted straight down the middle always brings cheesy movies and TV shows from the 1970s to mind—in a good way of course. Luckily, today’s celebs have taken the best parts of the look (like the serious shine and low-maintenance style) and brought it right up to the present. All ya need to make the look yours is a comb and some shine serum. Cinchy.

In a few hours i will be going to this sports day camp. And i'm terrified. I have my gym clothes and gym bag prepared, but i'm still nervous. Any advice?




Hey babe,

You're just nervous because you don't know exactly what to expect at camp. You've got all the essentials in your bag, so now all that's left is to take a deep breath and have fun! Just be yourself and I know you'll have an amazing time Smile

I know a lot of girls freeze up around guys. I am the total oppisite! I talk just to keep the convo going. I am afraid i talk 2 much and that i will seem 2 flirty and im usually just trying 2 b friendly. how can i talk less without making awkward pauses?




Hey girlie,

Talking a lot is just a reaction to the nerves you're feeling at the time, so take a deep breath and slow down. Calming yourself down in this way will make your brain calm down too, so you won't be tempted to blurt out every single thing you're thinking. But it's ok to be talkative! If you're an out-going and bubbly personality, talking more than "normal" is totally fine. It's you - and if the guy is gonna like you, he should see you exactly how you naturally are. 




And hey, awkward pauses aren't necessarily bad! You can use that brief moment to think about what you'll say next so you don't talk too much, say the "wrong" thing, or make a random transition.

I don't know if you can help me with this but I am so bored with my hair. I have a roundish face so I can't go short. Personally, I love my long hair. It's almost midback length. It is a brownish color. I dyed it black once so I don't want to do that again. Any ideas? Everyone says they only way to change up long hair is layers :/ I need something different for the new school year Smile




Hey babe,

No need to sacrifice the length for a new look! Instead, try a long side-swept bang. A set of long layers (not short or too choppy - start mid-neck or lower) can also help to bring some angles to your face's round shape. Soft curls are also super sweet with your face shape! Smile

ok, this is gonna be a long question,hahah.
i do basketball & dance.i hated my old dance studio, so i wanna go to this new one. its an amazing dance studio, & if you do dance there, thats about all that you do.
so basically, i have to pick between dance & basketball.
i would just do basketball this year & dance in my freshman year next year, but im going to a private school for hs! so if i dont do basketball this year, ill never do another team sport with all of my bestfriends again.
& plus, if i go to the new dance studio, ill meet tonsa new girls for high school.
but im nervous, cause what if i pick the dance studio & i end up sucking at dance (because i quit for a year.) & i hate it there? but what if i pick basketball & dont meet any new people?
basically,
im confused.
what would you do if you were in my situation, or if you dont wanna say,what advice could you give me?
thanks a ton, and sorry its such a long question!




 Hey girlie,

This is definitely such a tough decision, but unfortunately I can't make it for you. You have to think about what you actually like doing more, rather than the friends you'll make or have doing it.  Yes, of course it's great to have friends there, but you'll definitely make them no matter what you do, so don't worry about that. You just have to think about what would make you happier--dance or basketball--and then pick that one! Good luck! x0x0
