It is getting to that time of year when many of us revel being outside in the warm weather, especially when you can spend some time on the beach. On top of the beach being so enjoyable on its own, the combination of the sun and salt water can do something magical to the hair. It is no wonder that beachy hair is so coveted!

Now, as you plan your own summer adventures (and season of good beach hair), have some fun looking at a few of the most iconic beach babes of all time, thanks to the archives at Harper’s Bazaar.
