Is it summer yet?
These Instababes Are Embracing a Classic Beach Beauty Trend
Recommended for you
It’s hard to believe that May is almost over — what? — but one thing we’re looking forward to once the temps rise is a summer full of beach adventures. Style-wise, almost anything goes when you’re beach-bummin’, but there’s one beach beauty hack you need on your radar this summer (and every summer, TBH): salt-water locks. We’re talking surf-babe waves all day long, whether you use your favorite texturizing product or let your messy tresses do their own thang. If this look doesn’t give you enough reason to visit the beach ASAP, then we’re not doing our job. See how these 10 Instababes rock the summery trend below.
1. Blonde-tastic: Give lighter locks some sea-shore love after taking a dip in the salt water. Spritz textured spray all over and let it dry while you lay out under the hot sun.

2. Beach Bum: Who needs a Panama hat when you can let your strands soak up the rays? Opt for air-dried tresses to get stylish textured waves that will last you all day at the beach.

3. Deep Side Part: Nothing is better than chilling with your friends at the pool, and West-Coast strands are required for days spent lounging. Take your lazy-girl look to new heights with a deep side part, and finish it off with a California-girl pink lip.
