5 Hair Styles to​ Insta-Glam Your Day at The Beach

​Salty hair, don’t care. Summer days bring beachy hair waves, sea spray texture and the chance to insta-glam your sun-kissed locks. Celebrity hair stylist, Joseph Chase shares the simply perfect styles to look hot at the beach.

1. Beach Waves
There is something romantic about these waves. Done but undone, casual flirty, and they are super easy to achieve. My favorite product to use when creating this look is Bumble and Bumble surf spray. Spritz this product on damp or dry hair, use your hand to scrunch to desired texture, Let air dry and you are now a beach babe. Yes! that simple. Now for those who crave a little more fullness to their look, use a 1 inch curling iron after hair has dried. Curl ​sporadically and then use your hand to separate pieces and tease at the root for more lift.

2. Textured Pony
For the active gal, this is a great way to keep that hair back while paddle boarding or playing some beach volleyball. Simply pull your textured beach waved hair back loosely in a high or low pony and secure with a elastic or fabric tie. *fabric ties are so much better for the hair causing less breakage and holding your pony soft but strong.

3. Braids
Another great look for the beach are braids. There are a few to choose from but my favorite for this occasion are fishtail braids. After you pull your hair back loosely in a pony, split the hair into two sections. Start braiding by taking a small piece of hair from one section to the other back and forth till you reach the end of the braided pony. Secure with a small elastic then spread the braid with your hands to create a more textured look. this is such a fun alternative to the textured pony.

4. Braided Bun
After all that beach fun, you may want grab a refreshing spritzer at that hip new restaurant with your friends. A braided bun is a sure way to go from casual to elegant. Take your braided pony and twist around the base clockwise until you have established a bun. Bobby pin the bun in place making sure you tuck under the elastic end and securing as well. Use your hands to spread the braid for a fuller bun. Casual to elegant in under 5 min​utes.​

5. Scarfs
No matter what look you choose, scarfs are a great way to glam up any style. Perfect for the beach restaurant, or for the top down on the ride there.
