We love the freeing nature of a more casual, messed up look, especially during the lazier summer days. Here are some tips for achieving the oh-so-fun bed-head trend!

  • No washing! The easiest way to achieve the bed head look is to do just that: go to bed, wake up, and work with what you have…no washing your hair! You want to let your hair’s natural oils do some of the work, which means you don’t want to wash away all that oily goodness.

  • No crazy brushing! Your hair is probably flat in some places after having slept on it all night. But brushing it out will also brush out all that existing bed-head goodness. Instead, do this: flip your head over and run your fingers through your hair, starting at the bottom of your neck. Just shake your fingers and hair out. This helps build volume without losing the fun, casual “messy” look.

  • Don’t fight nature! If your hair wants to go in a certain direction, let it. So, for example, maybe you always part your hair on the side, but your natural bed head look has a part down the middle. Go with it.

Bonus! If you’re allowed to use hair products, a styling product called hair wax can help you keep your bed head look all day long. You can find it in most drug stores.
