Summer Casual

What You Need To Know

This particular style is for hair that is short and spiky. While it might be very short, there is nothing boring about it. Here is just one style that will work for you.

  • Wash and condition hair.
  • Blot hair to absorb excess moisture.
  • Blow dry until barely damp, while ruffling up the hair with your fingers.
  • Coat your fingers with a good styling gel and then pull the hair between the fingers to make it stand up, but on a gentle angle.
  • Work your way around to the back of the head and do the same. If you can find help, do so. If you can't, ruffling it with your fingers will create a similiar look.
  • When you are finished, a few spritzes of your favorite hairspray will keep it looking its best all day.

That's it, you are done.
