Cute summer hairstyles

[marie]

I have been wearing my hair in a bun since it is so hot in Houston! But, I am tired of that style and want something new and easy for the summer months. Any ideas? I have BSL length relaxed hair.

You should try different types of up-do's. I'm sure some of the ladies will chime in with other suggestions.

Oooh, I can't wait to see the replies.

As for me, I will be sporting half wigs (only if I can take the heat here in SoCal) and bantu knot outs.

Maybe we should have a thread or challenge on how to create cute styles for relaxed hair :scratchch

Bantu knot outs are really cute for the summer. I tried the style for the first time last weekend and it came out good even on my NL hair. It was a short sassy look. It is going to be one of my summer styles for sure!

I rocked it this weekend and got so many compliments. My hair wasn't completely off of my face though...the front was looser and swept across my forehead a little (it was very sexy!)

Okay I have been stuck in a bun rut, I need to do more braid outs, twist outs, bantu knots, etc. Thank you for sharing that youtube video AVE One. I'm gonna have to try that one but I can't french braid my own hair.

Very pretty! Last week, I got my first Dominican Blow out and it's been holding up well in the Houston heat.

You can aslo pull a Neisy (sp) Nash, and put colorful flowers in your hair.

H-Town in this piece! LoL... um...i really just wanted to say that...

Braid-outs are cute, and they look cute pulled into a high pony or loose bun with a head band or a flower...you should at least be able to get 5-7 day hair with it too

@ Pink Pearls
What dominican salon (or any salon for that matter)do you go to in Houston? I'm on the southeast side but I don't mind driving.

I think curly updo type styles are best for the summer because of heat and humidity. The curls help reduce the frizzy look. I posted styles that I think can be imitated on natural or relaxed hair.

Ok I didn't post the pics right, they're in the next post.

Thanks so much for this idea- I have been rocking it shamelessly ever since.

i'm natural but you should be able to do this style on relaxed hair. the braid out will be less frizzy since you're relaxed. here's a tutorial

Thanks!!!!!
