10 go-to hairstyles for beach and pool days

As the sun-kissed days of summer are here, it's time to hit the beaches and poolside spots for some fun under the warm rays. However, maintaining beautiful hair while indulging in water activities can be a challenge. Fear not, sunseekers! Olla Bella Beauty is here to present the top 10 go-to hairstyles for beach and pool days, ensuring you look fabulous and effortlessly chic all season long.

1. The Mermaid Braid:
A timeless favorite, the mermaid braid is perfect for keeping your hair off your face and neck while exuding an enchanting aura. Start by gathering your hair to one side and braid it loosely, pulling out a few strands for that carefree look. Secure with a cute hair tie, and you're all set to make a splash!

2. Beach Waves with a Twist:
Enhance your natural waves by spritzing on a sea salt spray before heading to the beach. If your hair is straight, use the Olla Bella curling wand to create gentle waves. Then, take a few strands from the front and twist them backward, securing with bobby pins for a playful and romantic touch.

3. The High Bun:
The high bun is a classic beach and pool day hairstyle that keeps your hair off your shoulders and looks effortlessly chic. Gather your hair into a high ponytail, twist it around the base, and secure with bobby pins. To make it even more fashionable, leave a few strands loose to frame your face.

4. The Scarf Wrap:
Add a touch of vintage flair to your beach look by tying a colorful scarf around your head like a headband. Whether you opt for a bohemian or retro vibe, the scarf wrap not only protects your hair from the sun but also serves as a stylish accessory.

5. The Fishtail Ponytail:
Upgrade your regular ponytail by creating a fishtail braid. Gather your hair into a low ponytail and braid it using the fishtail technique. Pull it apart slightly for a fuller and more relaxed appearance. This hairstyle is perfect for a beach volleyball game or a refreshing dip in the pool.

6. Half-Up Half-Down Twist:
Achieve an effortlessly chic look by parting your hair in the middle and taking small sections from each side, twisting them towards the back, and securing them with a clip or a decorative hairpin. This half-up half-down style keeps your hair under control while maintaining a breezy vibe.

7. Braided Crown:
Channel your inner beach goddess with a braided crown hairstyle. Create two loose braids on each side of your head, then wrap them around like a crown, securing them with bobby pins. This ethereal hairstyle is perfect for adding a touch of romance to your beach ensemble.

8. The Wet Look:
Embrace the "just out of the water" vibe with the wet look hairstyle. Comb a high-shine gel or serum through your hair, slicking it back away from your face. This trendy style is both practical and fashion-forward for a day spent lounging by the water.

9. The Boho Headband:
For those who love bohemian charm, opt for a boho headband. Choose a band that matches your swimsuit or beachwear, and position it across your forehead, securing it at the back. This laid-back style keeps your hair off your face while elevating your overall beach look.

10. Tropical Hair Accessories:
Bring the essence of the tropics to your hair with floral clips, shells, or other beach-themed hair accessories. These vibrant and fun additions instantly transform a simple hairstyle into a beachy masterpiece, showcasing your care, add two thin braids on each side of the head, for that effortless look.
