We had a wonderful 4th of July hanging with friends and family outside in Milwaukee, enjoying fireworks and swooning over amazing hair and makeup looks. For some hair stylists, Independence Day needed to be celebrated right down to the hair root. Here’s a few of our favorite looks we came across that already have us inspired for next year’s celebration.

Braided Star Hair Style by Jill Ehat

Braiding the flag’s stars into hair? Why didn’t we think of that! We love how stylist Jill Ehat transformed these adorable updos into patriotic hair inspiration by adding plaited stars and red, white and blue ribbons.

Red, White and Blue Braids from The Refresh Bar

Braiding colorful hair into a set of Dutch braids is one look we have to try. One stylist at the Refresh Bar added red, white and blue hair to her client’s braids, and we’re in love.

Patriotic Color Blocking by Doug Theoharis

Looking for a more permanent way to show your love for America? Stylist Doug Theoharis gave his client red, white and blue color blocks in her hair, and we can’t get enough of it. This style is fun, eclectic and definitely patriotic.

Black-lit Stars and Stripes Hair by Amanda Harsche

We’re not sure what 4th of July party has a black-light, but we don’t care. This colorful hair by Amanda Harsche looks incredible and makes us want to spend all night under fireworks.
