Side Braid-
This is the breakaway star of all the summer hair trends. To achieve Leona Lewis' funky fishtail braid, pull skinny sections of hair from the right and left alternately and add them in to your regular braid. The best part about this look is that it's okay to be messy! The more undone, the sexier.

Summer is all about having fun and experimenting with new styles. Temperatures rise and we're forced to find creative ways to look cool while feeling hot. I've already broken out my mini dresses, rompers, flat sandals and denim cutoffs, and for hot summer nights I love to add a little red lipstick and not much else. This summer, why not try a bunch of easy hair and make-up ideas that will take your wardrobe to the next level? Click through the gallery below for the hottest trends for right now.
