Loose Boho Curly Hairstyle for Summer


Undefined, relaxed Boho curls are the hottest look in texture for hot summer days (or nights).
Let’s see how to get this beautiful hairstyle for the beach, for shopping or even a night-out!
This is so easy, you’ll be laughing – the secret is to use the right products and tools.

How to Get the Style

To get your curls off to the right start, towel-dry without combing or brushing your hair and be sure to use the right curl enhancer products – cream-based formulations are best. Work the product with your fingers, concentrating it at the ends.

They key to this look is not styling your hair very much – just twist your hair as you do when you get nervous. If you have natural wave in your hair, it will take on that soft, Boho type of curl.

If you’ve got straight hair, towel-dry and apply product as above, then put hair into a large ponytail – or two pigtails if it’s super-thick – and instead of placing the elastic near the scalp, twist hair into one or two buns. Hit it with a diffuser or let it air-dry – you can even set it the night before and sleep on it!
