1. Vampy: Big heatless curls
In the shower, wash your hair and rinse upside down with cold water. As you apply your styling product, scrunch close to your head to promote natural volume. For big heatless curls, you can use flexi rods or Curlformers for big hair, no heat necessary. Use the Praying Hands Method to separate curls and encourage clumping without adding more frizz. Pin some hair to the side behind your ear to show some neck–he’ll be tempted to kiss you at the end of the night. Remember to allow yourself a few hours before your date to prepare this hairstyle.

2. Sultry: half-up, halfdown ponytail
Not sure about letting all of your hair down for the night–figuratively and literally? Try the half-up, half-down hairstyle on your curls. Take the top half and create two-strand twists with hair from both ears. Use bobby pins to pin them in the back, middle area of your head where they meet. Create a cute design with the twists. For the rest of your hair, tousle your natural texture and allow the bottom half to flow effortlessly in the wind. Scrunch DevaCurl Spray Gel into damp hair with your Curly Tee Towel to enhance the natural curl pattern and give the style long lasting hold.

3. Elegant: high bun
This hairstyle is always an option if you are in between trims, or if it’s too hot and humid outside to wear your curls down on your back. Simply run a light blended oil like Blended Beauty Natural Hair Oil through freshly washed hair, wrap up in a high pony (not too tight”>, twist around into a large bantu knot and bobby pin the end down. Play with your options for bedazzling your bun to be date night appropriate; add a cute headband and let pieces fall down for more appeal. Use an edge tame like CURLS Blueberry Bliss to slick your baby hair down and a hair donut for a more uniformed look.

4. Flirty: Fishtail Bun
Who doesn’t love a chic, easygoing bohemian look? Especially if you are on the beach or are having an outside picnic date, the elements will play your curls up even more. Try a Dutch side braid or a fishtail braid-out so your hair stays out of your face but still is sweet enough to make him want a taste. On freshly washed hair, braid into two low ponytails and leave them in overnight. Saturate with a defining leave-in like L’Oreal Evercurl Hydrating Leave-In for hold and volume. The next day, either leave the braids in and tuck them up, or unravel and wear your hair down.
