3 Sexy Summer Hairstyles To Try Now
Summer fever has officially descended. And since you've already broken out your flirty, skin-baring, hot-weather wardrobe, why not turn up the heat even more with another spicy little number—a sexy summer hairstyle? The look is completely attainable: Amp up a simple, understated look with some big-time sex appeal by adding movement, texture, and volume. Showcase your extra-sultry wild side (that's far from trashy) and attempt a Brigitte Bardot-inspired bombshell look. Try the effortlessly disheveled morning-after 'do, or go for some easy beach waves with an alluring flip. Whatever your fancy, we've found some easy tricks for cranking up the heat in your hairstyle.

The Sexy Summer Flip—An alluring mix of punky and sexy, this style plays off an undercut but is easy to recreate and requires zero commitment. First, add a volumizing mousse to damp hair. Make a deep side-part and blow-dry hair with a boar-bristle brush, pulling hair to one side. Backcomb at the crown to for extra volume, and add braids underneath the hair or french braid the back, à la Charlotte Ronson's fall '11 show, or just keep it simple and flip hair over the top and to the side. Finish with hairspray.
