Overlapping Braids

Embrace bouncy ringlets and wear them down and au naturel by simply creating a headband out of tiny, overlapping braids. This is hands down the easiest style to create (hint: no cornrowing skills are necessary) and the result is beautiful. Leave it to our friends at Buzzfeed to nail a braid hack.

Half-Up Side Braid

For curls that are on the large side or if you’re were blessed with lots of luscious locks, a half-up style is a no-fuss way to keep hair pulled back without going for a full-on ponytail (which can fall flat mid-day). The thick braid along the hairline completes the style effortlessly for a fun summer look. Get the step-by-step break down at Loxa Beauty.
