beachy waves (without the beach)

I have heard so many girls say they are scared to cut their hair because then they won't be able to put it up or do anything cool with it. Definitely not true! I have had short hair (an angled bob, to be exact) for almost five years now and I have experimented with more hairstyles than when I had long hair.

Recently, I've been inspired by Julianne Hough. Not only is she super-talented, but she is g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s. She has been sporting a shorter 'do for a while now and I am totally obsessed.

Her barely-there waves look effortlessly cool.

If you always sometimes wake up feeling too lazy to get ready like me, try this! I let my hair air dry while getting ready, eating breakfast, etc. then rubbed a tiny bit of volumizing mousse in my hair and blow-dried what was still wet. I made barely-there waves by using my straightener and twisting it around a piece of hair. That's it!
Around lunchtime, when my waves had fallen out slightly

Perfectly messy
Pulled back 

It took all of five minutes, looked great, and is perfect for Summer!

P.S. beachy waves make for the perfect texture for the post-work/happy hour ponytail!
