Chic Hairstyles

January 14, 2009


Want to look hot, follow these tips for hair that spells fabulous. Celebrity style hair is now within your reach, all you need is a hair dryer and protective hair serum. We share with you simple steps to get those gorgeous locks.

1) Towel dry freshly washed and conditioned hair. Apply a small quantity of heat protective serum with your palms and comb through for an even distribution from roots to ends.

2) Starting at the nape of the neck, divide hair into sections of two inches. Using a paddle brush, blow dry hair straight with slight tension. Work your way down the lengths of each section, concentrating the heat at the ends to get a smooth finish.

3) Part hair in centre to achieve better control. Now bring out the irons, begin at the scalp and work your way down three quarters of the lengths of the hair, stopping before to get to the ends.

4) Using a large-barrel curling iron, roll ends of hair from each section under, continuing upwards to where you stopped with the flat iron. Hold for 10 to 15 seconds, allowing heat to penetrate; then release. Follow the same procedure with each section.

5) Loosen out the waves with a tail comb to give it an even look and then work your fingers through the hair to separate and define the waves.

You can create another look with the same style, the flat irons need to be replaced with curlers. Follow the steps up to blow dryer, thereafter use a medium-barrel curling iron. Begin to roll hair under, up to the base of the head. Hold on for 10 t0 15 seconds, allowing heat to penetrate each section, then release. Secure each section with a pin and allow hair to cool. Once the hair is set, remove pins and rake fingers to loosen out the curls. This hairstyle is suitable for medium to long hair.
