Rainy Day Hair

It's raining today and if you are like me, spending time on your hair is an effort and having it get wet is no fun. However, who said you still can't look cute in the rain. Here are some cute weatherproof styles that will be safe in the rain, wind or humidity. 

Braids are an easy solution when the weather is wet and icky. It keeps the hair from frizzing and stays in place.
Start by parting your hair in the center or on the side, depending on your preference, and then separate your hair into pigtails. Braid each side and secure it with a metal-free, fabric-covered elastic band (this reduces damage done to your ends). Next, take the braid on your right side and wrap it across the top of your head, using two to three bobby pins to fasten it directly behind your left ear; repeat the steps above with the opposite braid.

This cute, casual bun is great for wet and humid weather. It's really simple to do... just follow these steps:  
1. Use some serum to smooth your hair of any frizziness
2. Pull it up into a ponytail on top of your head using your fingers or a comb to smooth out the hair.
3. Secure with a snag-free ponytail holder
4. Twist the ponytail in a circle and secure with bobby pins
5. Finally spray it with a strong hold hairspray to make sure it stays 

This is an easy style that can be achieved anytime, anywhere.  Caught in the rain? As long as you have an elastic band you're set!
First, bring your hair to either the left or right side of your head so it lays on your shoulder. If you're all about volume at the crown, tease hair until you've reached the desired lift using a comb. Then, begin braiding your hair and secure it with a rubber band. VoilĂ ! 





Here's another quick and easy updo you can do if you are caught in the rain. 
Just create a  side part, and using a boar-bristle brush  smooth your hair and gather it to one side. Then, start braiding your hair down to the ends, securing it with an elastic band.  Finally, wrap the hair around itself (into a bun) against your head. Secure with bobby pins and U-pins to keep the braided bun from unraveling.



I hope you try these fun hairstyles and let me know if you have any questions or comments!
