Fourth of July hair is all kinds of amazing

There are tons of great ways to celebrate the Fourth of July (like making some epic food and beverage combos), but one new celebration in particular has caught our eye, and it involves any pairing of three simple colors in your hair. You guessed it: Red, white and/or blue.

If you click on the tag #4thofjulyhair on Instagram, you can find all kinds of hair inspo for your own Independence Day celebration — from wearing red, white and blue ribbons to styling your braids in the shape of a star (what? yes, really!) to even using hair chalk or temporary hair dye to pay tribute to the colors of the holiday in style. Check out some of our favorites below!
