Summer days are for brunches, beach trips, vacations, and last-minute rooftop invites. So, we need hairstyles that are quick, cute, and keep your coils and curls protected all summer long. These 5 hairstyles work perfectly for type 4 hair, take under 10 minutes, and don’t require tons of products or manipulation.

  1. Chunky Two-Strand Twist Crown

    • Part your hair down the middle, create two large twists on each side, and pin them into a crown.

    • Cute, protective, and perfect for high humidity days.

  2. The Puff (But Elevated)

    • Pull your hair into a high puff with a satin scrunchie or a stretched headband.

    • Fluff it out and use a little edge control or gel to polish the look.

    • Feel free to add an accessory to make it pop even more. See my photo below!

  3. The Side-Swept Flat Twist

    • Flat twist one side of your hair back and secure with a bobby pin or cute clip.

    • Add a bold earring and now you’re a fashionista.

  4. Twist out or Wash and Go with a Headband

    • Refresh by misting with water and leave-in conditioner, then top it with a satin headband or scarf.

    • This adds style and protects from sun and friction.

  5. Low Bun with a Twist

    • Gather your hair into a low bun, twist the ends, and tuck them in and good to go.

    • Add a bold claw clip or scarf for a little character.

Don’t let styling slow you down this summer. These quick hairstyles are perfect for work, play, and everything in between. Now go enjoy this summer heat!
