Straight Stands and a Boater
Wherever you go, consider the ghd Gold Styler, $199 your ultimate travel companion—the super light hot tool straightens, curls, and fits in your beach bag. And don’t forget to protect your locks – a boater hat does wonders (and makes mama proud).

Beach Braided Bun
Is there anything more IG worthy than braids on the beach? Beads add even more oomph.

Natural Hair Vibes
Rock your natural hair when you’re on Spring Break–there’s no faking it here.

Go Rosegold
Rose gold adds standout dimension to shorter locks. Whatever style you sport, don’t forget your hoops

Ballerina Bun
Pull it up but leave your baby hairs out. This ultra-cool Cali girl style will take you from the beach to out dancing.

Casual Pony
A ponytail is always a great look, especially because it’s so utilitarian. Hair is out of the way so you can devote your full attention to pizza.

Dark Brown
Be mysterious with long, dark, straight strands.

Bubblegum Pink
Channel your inner Kim Kardashian West Bubblegum pink + that flash tho = c’est magnifique!

Piece-y
Keep hair undone, piece-y and off your face if you’re going for avant-garde beauty.

Blues the Hue
If a blue hair bob doesn’t get you ready for festival season, what will? The best part is that you can wash it out in time for your next class—try Splat 30 Wash No Bleach Formula in Midnight Indigo, $10.99

Sleek Center
Georgia O’Keefe vibes are yours with slightly off-center gelled back hair that is doubly face framing. We like Aveda confixor™ Liquid Gel, $21

One Side Braid
A one-side braid does wonders, especially when hair is strategically pulled out for depth and draamaaa.

Poolside Headband
A hairband adds chic poolside—we can’t get enough of this does-it-all accessory, especially when it’s just too hot.

A casual, sleek up-do is everything while sailing the Bahamian blue seas.

Staying Slaying in the French Quarter? Say no more because that beret isn’t going to wear itself.

Feeling like an earth mother goddess? If not, just add extensions.

Kick your ponytail up a knotch and unleash your inner glamazon in piece.

Rooty
Stay sun-kissed—grown out roots are chic and totes appropriate for vacay.
