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 best haircut for a stereotypical surfer will require you to allow your hair to grow. If you do grow your hair long and actually surf, consider tying it back during your surf session. If you have curly hair, you may want some kind of gel or product to straighten it a little, and give it that "fresh from the beach" appearance.
In general, dress for the surfer is very comfortable and essential for the beach lifestyle . Reef thongs, or canvas shoes are a functional 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. Consider wearing a sleeveless t shirt, or even lose the top completely, while at the beach. This will serve to reveal 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 crucial that you take preventive measures to protect yourself, by either using sunscreen or total sunblock, to care for 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 likely that you'll want to wear a bikini. Consider gauzy skirts, sandals and sarongs. Women's board shorts are also a great option.
