Ever wanted to get that surfer look? The concept of the surfer look needs the right blend and combination of hair, outfit, accessories, and overall style . The most desirable haircut for a stereotypical surfer will require you to allow your hair to grow. When you are satisfied about the length of the hair, some blond highlights will give you the authentic look surfer wannabes are after. If you have curly hair, you may need some kind of gel or product to straighten it a little, and give it that "fresh from the beach" appearance.

Surfer dress is unique and need to be carefully chosen to look right. Reef flip flips, or canvas shoes are the best option for surfers footwear. It's important that you not only look great, but feel comfortable, whether at the beach or the local mall. Board shorts are an important item, no surfer look is complete without a pair. Consider one of the many surf brand t shirts or polo shirts available. You may want to consider going shirtless or wear a singlet while at the beach. This will serve to showcase your buff surfer body and show off your year round beach tan.

Another important item in a surfers wardrobe is a decent pair of sunglasses. Sunglasses will guard your eyes from harmful Ultra violet rays, while looking great. The sun rays are dangerous, so keep this in mind when heading for the beach. Therefore, it is vital that you take preventive measures to protect yourself, by either using sunscreen or total sunblock, to look after yourself and avoid possible future problems. Consider using fake tan to create the sun kissed look, without any of the dangers of sun bathing or tanning salons. A further option is to wear a long sleeve rash guard and hat.

For that surfer girl look, it might be preferable to wear a bikini. Consider gauzy skirts, sandals and sarongs. Women's board shorts are also a great option. When surfing, avoid heavy make-up. A little waterproof mascara can work really well. The female surf clothing industry is booming at the moment, there are so many looks to choose from, and so many great looks to put together.
