Bobs, braids, & buns -- oh my! Summer's hottest hair trends

The modern "bob" is just so girly I could faint. I just love them. And there are so many different styles: edgy and frayed, pixi-like and whispy, wavy and longer, etc. etc. etc.! There really is a bob for every personality whether you're a rocker or a housewife, I kid you not. It is the perfect hairstyle to kick off the summer with, and if you have super long hair (like me), then it's a perfect excuse to chop the locks and donate them to Locks of Love. Plus, it'll help keep you cool, get a little breeze on that neck. I've collected some inspiration for you from Pinterest. Hope you find something just right for you:

Braids, braids, braids ... where to begin with braids? Any occassion, any style -- just throw in a braid and you're good to go. Effortlessly sexy and and feminine, I have been smitten by the braid. It's my go-to when I'm in a rush. Here's some gorgeous inspiration:

 Leave the braid(s) in overnight with a few spritzes of Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray. Take out in the morning for laid-back waves.

I've been a fan of buns for a long time, from years of ballet classes and plenty of mornings when I didn't have time to dry my hair so I threw the wet hair into a messy bun. They are so simple and take only a few minutes -- and a loose, care-free bun is sizzling hot right now. Being hair lazy and being on trend? I'm definitely OK with this! You like?

 Summer lovin, had me a blast...
