Staycation Summer: Let's Talk Hairstyles

There’s one thing we can all agree on: 2021 is the year of staycations. With travel restrictions making it a chore to travel abroad, local holidays have surged through the roof. And whether you are surfing the salty waves in Cornwall, walking through the cobbled streets of Edinburgh, or relaxing in a cabin in the Lake District, your hair needs to be effortlessly chic. I mean, who has time to spend hours on hairstyling when summer is nearly over?

Take a look at some of our favourite staycation styles below - there just might be one you’re itching to recreate.

Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales, so you're going to need a gravity defying fishtail braid to keep your hair out of your face. Spray any fly aways down with some hairspray and you are good to go! Our 'Fix Your Quiff' All Round Hairspray is great at weightlessly locking in your style to protect it against the elements. You can also try it with one full braid rather than two.

Edinburgh is considered the best city in the UK and it's easy to see why with its scenic views, cobbled streets, and award winning Scottish whisky. We've created a simple but elegant side braid tutorial so you can spend more time exploring and less time prepping. Remember: spray your look with hairspray to keep flyaways and your braid in place, and pull your braid gently to the side to achieve a less organised, more effortless look. 

BUBBLE PONY FOR BAR HOPPING IN MANCHESTER

London is great but Manchester was voted the best city to visit in the UK this summer. All you need is a hairbrush, some hairbands, and a couple sprays of 'Fix Your Quiff' hairspray to achieve this sleek city look. With Manchester's endless array of beautiful restaurants and funky bars, this bubble pony is effortless, chic, and matches the champagne which will be flowing all night! 

BRINGING THE WAVES FOR THE CORNWALL SURF

You can't travel to Cornwall, take in all its beauty, paddle board or surf its waters... and not have beautiful waves in your hair while you do it. The look which we've created for you below is super simple, lasts all day, and looks beautiful. No seriously, it's only 3 steps! Finish off with the Duck & Dry 'Blow Dry in a Bottle' to add the texture and mega volume needed to make your waves last all day.
