Festival Hair Styling Tips

With festival season among us, it’s your chance to embrace the freedom of expression through hair. Whether you're rocking out at Coachella or dancing at Stagecoach, your hair is your opportunity to showcase your unique style. Discover the hottest trends and styling tips to complement your look this festival season.

Bohemian Braids

Raquel Negrete, Global Educator for R+Co, twisted waterfall braids into a beautiful cascade pulling them all together for day-long wear. For this look we recommend starting with SUN CATCHER Power C Boosting Leave-In Conditioner, the protective leave in that will shield your hair from UV damage while nourishing strands and fighting frizz. For some extra hold, follow up with TELEPORT Fleixble Control Hydra Gelee. This styling gel provides a lightweight texture with a buildable hold that adds a smooth, subtle shine.

Slick Back Spikey Bun

For a chic look that keeps your hair out of the way for a day of festivities, this iconic look is always a go-to. The key to ensuring the sleek look lasts from morning to night is the right balm. On damp hair apply a small amount of GRASP Intense Hold Shaping Balm from root to end. Slick hair back with a fine-tooth comb and twist the bun in place with a hair tie or pins leaving out the ends. Add additional GRASP as needed to smooth fly-aways and mend ends of the bun for a flawless look.

Mermaid Waves

Channel your inner sea goddess with mermaid waves that are perfect for dancing the night away. Achieve this look by using a curling wand or hair straightener to create loose, tousled waves throughout your hair. Be sure to protect your strands from heat damage with CHAINMAIL Thermal Protection Styling Spray. Not only does it shield strands with 450°F protection, it also adds flexible hold and a voluminous finish. Finish with a spritz of ROCKAWAY Salt Spray salt spray for that beachy, just-off-the-sand texture.
