BEAUTY BAR: Double Trouble

In the uncomfortable Floridian heat, it is sometimes easier to just throw your hair up in a messy bun, wearing as little as socially acceptable and face the brutal sun. The main focus when you’re getting ready is to somehow find a way to stay cool in the high temperatures, and style, unfortunately takes a back-burner. Fear not, this doesn’t have to be the only choice! There are ways to stay cool and still be your ever-so-stylish self! One such way is the very trendy double braid, which has become especially popular on college campuses.

As the seasons come and go, so do various hair trends. Last summer it was the double buns, and now it’s the double braids. The double braid has come a long way from the traditional milkmaid or cowgirl look. Not only does it work well in the warmer months as a way to pull your hair up, but it adds a high fashion element to any outfit. This Fashionista paired her braids with the essential basic crop top, a statement necklace and high-waisted printed pants. The braids themselves are also very versatile. Depending on the look, you could make the braids tight like what this Fashionista did, or loosen and thicken the braids for a more boho-inspired vibe.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: The best part about this beauty trend is that it doesn’t involve any materials or extra cost, besides two clear hair elastics, making it quite easy and efficient to wear throughout the spring and summer months.
