Trending Now: Easy Air Dry Hairstyles
1. Air Dried Wave
First things first: Back away from the salt spray! You won’t be needing it for this effortless wavy look. What you will be needing, is a product that helps to hold your wave in place without the crunch factor. In this case, try using a gel, like Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Curl Defining Gel Serum. The gel works to help define your wave as your hair dries. After washing and conditioning your hair, comb your hair using a wide-tooth comb in the direction you want your hair to fall. Apply the gel to the ends of your hair then create two to three braids. Allow the gel to dry for about 20 minutes just for the texture formed by the braid to set, then release. Once your hair is fully air-dried, you’ll have an effortless-looking wavy hairstyle.
2. Air Dried Slicked Back Bob
We love how the classic bob haircut is styled into an edgy ’do in this look. To recreate this style on short hair, start off with freshly-washed hair. Starting off with a clean slate is best as you’ll be needing some product to help create the slicked-back look. Since the point of air-drying hair is to cut down on styling and heat styling tools, use a shampoo that’ll save you some time, too! Wash and condition your hair with TRESemmé Cleanse and Replenish 2-in-1 Shampoo Plus Conditioner to remove residue and cleanse your hair in just one step. After washing your hair, detangle and gently comb it back. Apply Nexxus Exxtra Hold Sculpting Gel from the hairline to mid-crown only, and leave your ends free from any product. After a few hours of air-drying (could be about an hour depending on how thick your hair is), you’ll have an edgy slicked-back bob hairstyle that’s perfect for making a fashionable statement wherever you go.
