One way to wear long hair to the beach is by creating a high ponytail secured with a stylish scarf. Here’s a breakdown of the steps:
Steps to a Beach-Ready Hairstyle
-
Pull your hair into a high ponytail. This gets your hair off your neck and shoulders, helping you stay cool. Secure with a hair tie.
-
Fold your scarf into a long, skinny shape. This creates a band that's easier to work with. A silk or cotton scarf works well.
-
Wrap the scarf around the base of the ponytail so that both sides are even in length.
-
Tie the scarf into a knot or a bow. A simple knot is secure and stylish, while a bow adds a touch of elegance. If you have enough material, a double knot is extra secure.
-
Secure any loose pieces with bobby pins. This will ensure your hairstyle stays in place, even on windy days.
This style offers a practical and fashionable way to manage long hair at the beach, keeping it off your face and adding a touch of style. You can also adapt this by using a scrunchie instead of a hair tie, or by braiding sections of your hair before putting it into the ponytail for a more detailed look. Consider using a leave-in conditioner or hair oil to protect your hair from the sun and salt water.
