Planning a fun beach day or maybe a vacation? You're probably looking for some cute hairstyles that will stand up against the sun, wind, and water. Whatever your hair length or type — short, medium, long, straight, wavy, or curly — you'll want a style that will keep you cool, stay out of your face, and prevent knots and damage. Look no further: We've rounded up the best beach hairstyles for you to try for summer and beyond.
1
Fishtail Braid
Braiding your hair is a great way to keep strands out of your face and avoid tangling. This long fishtail braid is gorgeous and perfect for showing off your balayage tones.
2
Bantu Knots
Bantu knots are a protective hairstyle formed by twisting pieces of hair into small, tight buns. They are both practical and totally cute for a day at the beach.
3
Silky Scarf
Try pulling your hair up into a bright, silky scarf — it's chic, super simple to do, and keeps hair off of your neck and shoulders. Plus, it will help protect your strands from sun damage and color fading.

Ocean Hair Clips
Love finding starfish and seashells in the tide pools? Use them to clip back your hair! This is perfect for those of you who struggle with your bangs at the beach.
5
High Curly Pony
This is a great hairstyle to help keep you cool that's really easy to do, especially if you naturally have small, coily curls: Just tie hair into a high ponytail at the crown. No curls? You can use a skinny curling iron to get those pretty tight spirals.

Long Goddess Braids
If you love letting your hair down but hate brushing out the knots, try this beautiful braided hairstyle. This one is sure to protect your hair from the wind and waves.
7
Double Dutch Pigtails
These adorable double dutch braids can work for long or short hair. You can braid them all the way to the end, or you can stop at your neckline and tie them into loose pigtails, as seen here.
8
Double Dutch Buns
Here's another fun twist on double dutch braids. Start the braids at your neckline and work upwards; once you get to the top, twist them into two loose buns. If you find this difficult, you can also skip the braids and just form the buns.

Colorful Headband
Bring a pop of color to your look with a bright headband. It's very simple but flattering. Better yet, it will help keep your hair back so you don't have errant strands falling in your face on hot, sticky days.

Side Braids
Whether you prefer a ponytail or a bun, you can add small braids on the sides to give your style a little flair. It's also a great way to show off your hair color.
11
Half Up, Half Down
Not sure whether you want to leave your hair up or down? You can have it both ways with this half-up-half-down hairstyle. Just section off the top half of your hair and bring it into a high bun. If you have bangs or just feel like embellishing a little, you can add french braids along the top, as you see here.
