If you think summer is a time to get stylistically lazy, Jodie wants you to think again. Just because you'll be sweaty and gross doesn't mean you can let your coif go to shit, so here's what to do:

DO keep your hair real: "Go with your natural hair texture, don't be too contrived. Don't get your hair straightened or flat-ironed."

DO wear your hair messy: "Just air-dry or blow-dry your hair with your fingers. Use product, like different creams for dry hair to give yourself that 'lived in' look."

DO wear your hair long if you're a guy: "Over the ears, long in the back, but not quite like a mullet."

DO get razor cuts: "They grow out well. They last a long time. Even if you don't know what it is, ask for one."

DO wear bangs: "It's the 21st century version of bangs that's in. They're shaggy and long and can be swept over, plus they frame the face."

Portland is proud to own this almost-famous snowboarder/painter/photographer. He's graced the pages of Vice magazine and flies to Iceland to host his openings, so who better to school us on fashion faux pas?

DON'T blow your fashion load: "Don't wear all your good clothes at once--space it out a bit."

DON'T wear skater shoes: "Dumpy skate shoes on girls, all laced up tight like a football--that sucks."

DON'T rock anti-Bush Ts: "It's like wearing an 'I hate cancer' T-shirt. No shit."

DON'T have big tits: "Jungers are done. Also, if you're a guy, don't work out."

DON'T have ironic hair: "Mustaches, mullets, rat-tails. These are all so tired. Please don't wear them anymore. It hurts. I'm so very tired. Zzzzzzz."
