This elevated bubble pony looks much harder to create than it really is. Since this style is a bit more advanced, head over to beauty influencer Missy Sue's YouTube channel for the full step-by-step. You'll look every bit the pro after following her instructions.
"For longer hair, consider a relaxed braid," says Romine. Knowing just how windy days at sea can be, she says that this type of style helps keep your tresses under control while still looking relaxed and undone. "For more coverage, you can also accessorize with an accent scarf or a headband," she offers.
To score the low-maintenance look, spritz your hair with a texturizing spray (such as the Amika Bushwick Beach, $25) for added texture. Gently tease your tresses and weave away.

Messy Top Knot
We live in a world where messy buns are considered to be anything but unkempt. Spritz in some dry shampoo (we especially fancy the IGK First Class Charcoal Detox Dry Shampoo, $27), flip your head over, pull your hair up, and call it a day. For an added romantic touch, pull a few face-framing strands out in front of your ears.

Braided Messy Half Up Knot
Another option is to add a braid to a messy half-up knot. No fancy French braiding skills? No worries. Simply divide an inch or two on each side of your head and weave a braid from your roots down to your ends. Pull them back with other hair into a half up section and wrap it into a bun. The more messy ends, the better.
If you love romantic styles that look both messy and whimsical, you'll love this windy-day-approved half-up 'do. Divide a two-inch section of hair on each side of your head and tie it together with an elastic at the back of your head. From there, wrap hair loosely around the sections to create a messy twisted look.
