It’s the time of the year where we can let loose and people will still think we’re completely on trend. It’s Boho season - the time for messy hair, natural tans and bare faced beauty. With so many variations of this trend, you won’t run out of looks to try this summer. Comfortable but also chic? Sign us right up. Here are the key styles to try before the sunshine disappears and summer comes to an end this year:

The Wet Look

Nothing screams summer ready more than the infamous wet look. Looking like we've just strolled straight out of the sea Baywatch style, this look has been rocked by Kim Kardashian, Margott Robbie and by various fashion houses on the SS18 runways. With this being a staple look this season, apply a generous amount of styling foam to wet hair scrunching your locks until you achieve your desired waves.

The Plaits

We can’t complete a boho article without mentioning braids. Depending on what style you go for, this can be another effortless hairstyle which you can experiment with. Fishtail, box braids, French plaits, classic - the variations are endless. When you don’t know what to do with your hair, braids are always a good option. For box braids featured in the photo, you may however need to get them done professionally. To keep your locks looking shiny and nourished opt for a good moisturiser (especially to prevent your ends from becoming dry and matted!)

The Loose Curls

Loose, messy curls or even “bed hair” is a very popular style this season, and probably the one that requires the least effort. The most effortless way to create this look is to sleep with your braids in overnight, release those curls in the morning and finish off by spritzing some perfecting spray. For more curl definition, opt for a curling cream. I mean, who doesn’t want to look like a surfer chick on cue?
