Deconstructed Braids—A Low Maintenance Summer Hair Style
With one of the hottest summers we've seen in years, Ross Bartolomei, owner of Salon Hype in Burr Ridge, is giving us tips on how to survive summer in style.

Style Tip: Deconstructed braids - a hairstyle that will beat the summer heat
With your hair wet, create two braids with a part down the center. Let dry completely (even overnight) before taking out the braids. Once the braids are out, loosen gently, but do not comb. The result is a fantastic, beachy summer look. This look can be casual or dressed up for a special occasion or party.
