The Summer Rebel

Comb away the sleek pony tails. Ditch those done-so-many-times pretty updos. Weave in a liberal flavor of luxe grunge in those braids. Go graphic with your fringes and bobs. It’s time to push out the babydoll pinks and pastel brights, embrace the flamboyant blacks and whites, and pack in a feisty punk punch, to come up with your own definition of summer-cool. We dare you to wear your hair differently, this season. We dare you to be the fire that fights the sun.
