Summer is HOT, HOT, HOT. Perfecting those beach waves to rock your best summer hair can be a lot of work with hot tools in the equation. If you are looking to skip the hot tools this summer, you’re in luck because a curling iron and/or a flat iron is not the only way to get yourself some bouncy curls, beach waves, or an effortless ‘do.  

Here are our favorite air dry styles and tips for rocking your best hair this summer.

Curls

Braiding is a foolproof method for every hair type to get a wild and pretty curl texture. Want tighter curls? Braid many sections of your hair - the smaller the braids, the tighter the waves and curls. 

Beach waves

You can achieve beach waves by twisting sections of your hair into buns and sleep this way as your hair dries. Hot tip: The smaller the bun, the tighter the wave. 

Effortless braid

A single braid is the ultimate effortless look. Whether you're going for just an accent or a full glamazon jumbo braid, you will feel polished with minimal effort.
