Mermaid Hair: the passepartout look from beach to sunset

Mermaid Hair: the passepartout look from beach to sunset  Goodbye brush and blow dryer, this summer hair is shaped only with water

Sexy mermaid inspiration. The ultimate summer styling avoids the heat of blow dryers and straighteners and puts an end to fights with untamable hair with just one product. It is the wet, the wet effect more or less extended from the roots or to the whole hair, as if you had just come out of the water: a practical look from the beach to the evening, but just a stroke of the comb is enough to make it "glossy" and suitable even for the red carpet. It is nothing new that the mermaidcore style has inspired fashion and beauty, a love - that for water - that has always been linked to femininity as well. Much cooler than the now-famous beach waves, mermaid hair is a trend that is all the rage on social media and, from TikTok to Instagram, there is no celebrity who has not been captivated by this new type of blow-drying, which evokes - with its sinuosity - the hair of mermaids. Looking super soft and sensual, they are the result of when we loosen our hair from braids but can be done in a variety of ways.

For this mermaid style it is best to avoid the volume effect on the top of the head, so it is necessary to flatten the hair well with a fine-toothed comb by pushing on the root while it is still wet. Mermaid effect waves are not only achieved with braids but you can also opt for chignons, so as to give movement and volume to the hair without using heated tools. In this case you just need to create small twists with damp hair before going to bed and secure them on the top of the head with small rubber bands. In the morning once loose shape the hair with your fingers using a fluid to give it the movement you want and voila, you will have gotten your Mermaid Hair without using any kind of product.

Alternatively, if you have to go out right away, the most classic method is still braids: divide the hair into two parts and make soft braids with the hair still damp. Proceed with blow-drying; once loose, to maintain the effect achieved even more, you can spray some sea salt spray on the hair, which will keep the hairstyle longer.

Last but not least, you can also lock the hair with decorative clip to make the hairstyle even more special, without pulling the hair too much to maintain the wave-like movement. A nice compromise for those who want curly-not-curly Carrie Bradshaw hair.
