Hello everyone!

I need your help on something. I'm going on holiday in August at a beautiful Greek island so there'll be lots of swimming. I don't want to mess up my hairstyle while at sea (I have short blond hair in the style of Marilyn Monroe), but I'm too embarrassed to wear a swimming cap. I could simply not dip my head into the water, but that's a pity isn't? What do you girls usually do?

And also, what type of shoes do you wear at the beach? I think heels are a no no....

I can't wait to read your replies and if you have photos as well that would reeeeally help a lot!

I usually braid mine but yours is too short for that. What if you try just curling it really tight, and then just letting it be when you go swimming?

Thank you for your reply! I suppose that if I go into the water it'll go straight again. Maybe I will just skip it or else I'll have to curl my hair everyday! :(

Actually, I think if you roll it to your head and pin it (a la a Gibson style, which is do-able with shorter hair, I promise cause I used to do it!), when you go to release the pins, it'll retain some of the curl (as long as you wait a few until it's almost dry to unpin it)... that way, you can finger style it on the beach, and it still has some curl in it. And I understand that the sea salt in the ocean is a great style "product." Have a great vacation!

I hadn't thought of that, it's a great idea! Thank you so much. You too enjoy your summer!!! 

For shoes, you could wear espadrilles (they come in different heel heights and styles. Espadrillesetc.com has some cute styles. They are are expensive, but there is a sales page on the on the site. They are located in Spain, though. You could also wear a sandal with a flat or small wedge heel and an ankle strap.

You are right, espadrilles is a good choice and are comfy to wear during the day as well. They have nice things but they are quite pricey for espadrilles. I'll try ebay or any local stores. Thank you for the suggestion Audrey! :)
