BEATING THE HEAT (in style)

Ok, so really nothing can take away from the opressing heat and humidity we're experiencing here in jaaawwjuh. But we try right? In these blazing summer days it's hard to dress/ style your hair accordingly while still looking cute. I'm a hairdresser, and even I will tell you that a sexy blow-out is just not worth your time right now. I've found some cute ways to put my hair up that sure beat a measley ponytail, and can get you from grocery store to wedding attendance no problem. I'm obsessed with the messy bun, and anything involving braids (growing out the bangs).

Here's your how to. For Destiny Hope Smiley Miley Cyrus' look (that's her full name y'all.... for real) All you need to style is your bangs if you've got them. They curled her hair which is totally optional. Since we're going for easy, we'll just say we're not curling the hair.

Put your hair in a low pony. I would suggest it slightly to one side so you can see it a little from the front.

Then pick up a chunk of hair (about 1/4 your pony) and lightly tease with a wide tooth comb. This is NOT your grandmother's teasing! Just enough to add some texture and volume.

Take your chunk and wrap it around your pony-tail holder until you can't go any more. Secure it with a bobby pin, and maybe one more on the other side for security.

Keep going with you next 3 chunks. Have a look at the back and secure any really loose pieces with a couple more bobbies, but don't pick up everything, it's supposed to be a little tossled.

For some extra pizaz go with SMG's look. Start with a deep side part (end of eyebrow, anything further is a comb over, yes I'm talking to you EMO girls) do a french braid to just behind your ear and then free braid the rest. From there, continue with your low pony and follow the previous instructions.

I hope that gave you guys a little inspiration to try something fun with your hair, it's not hard to dress up that pony-tail!! Have FUN!
