3 Sexy Summer Hairstyles to Try Now

• The Messy Morning After
• The Half-Up Bombshell
• The Sexy Summer Flip

• The Sexy Summer Flip

  To achieve this punked-out look, add volumizing mousse to damp hair. Part your hair sharply to the side and blow-dry with a boar-bristel brush. To add extra volume, backcomb at the crown. To finish it off, add braids underneath or just flip hair over the top and to the side. Hairspray is the final touch.

• The Messy Morning After

  Start with a volumizing mousse and blow-dry or spray a texturing styling gel on dry hair. Use a one-inch curling iron to create randomly placed waves, then run fingers through hair and backcomb at the roots. The messier, slept-in, and more wind-blown-looking, the better.

• The Half-Up Bombshell

  Hot rollers will give your hair mega volume, like Lindsey Wixson's 'do in Opening Ceremony's spring/summer '11 look book, but a one-inch curling iron will do the trick, too. Once the curls are set, brush hair out and spray on a volumizing, dry hairspray at the roots to add volume. Backcomb at the crown, pull the top half of hair back, and secure into a half-up poof. Finish by spraying generously with hairspray.
Maybe you've had the same hairdo for the past six months, or now that temperatures are rising, your strands are starting to make you overheat. Either way, our friends over at Refinery 29 have rounded up three gorgeous summer hairstyles that require minimum effort but produce maximum effect. Your options: the Sexy Summer Flip, an "alluring mix of punky and sexy" that has been featured on runways such as Charlotte Ronson Fall 2011; the Messy Morning After (enough said); or the Half-Up Bombshell, which involves hot rollers and tons of sex appeal.
