2. Apply a dollop of lightweight smoothing styling cream listed below through the mid-lengths down to the ends to ensure frizz-free shine and hold.
3. Using a large ceramic round brush listed below, blow-dry the hair in horizontal sections, pulling upwards at the root for volume and rolling the ends under and outward for that bouncy bend.
4. For the front money piece and curtain layers, wrap the strands around the round brush directing them backward away from the face, setting them with cool air or popping them in a velcro roller for 10 minutes.
5. Gently remove any rollers, shake out the blowout with your fingers, and warm up a drop of nourishing hair shine oil listed below in your palms to glide over the ends.
6. Lock in the bouncy shape with a light veil of the flexible hold finishing hairspray listed below so your face frame stays perfectly in place all day.
The braided high ponytail. So edgy and cool! I love how the tight side braids give it a fierce rocker vibe while keeping all your hair securely pulled back. Perfect for concert nights or when you want your ponytail to have that extra punch of attitude.
How to do this
1. Prep dry, clean hair with a light texturizing spray using the dry texturizing spray listed below to give your strands extra grip and volume.
2. Section off the sides above the ears into two to three distinct diagonal parted rows using a fine-tooth rat tail comb.
3. Braid each side section into tight Dutch cornrows moving backward and upward toward the crown of your head, securing each with a tiny elastic.
4. Gather the remaining hair along with the ends of the side braids up into a high ponytail at the crown, securing firmly with a strong elastic.
5. Take a small 1-inch section of hair from underneath the ponytail and wrap it around the base to conceal the elastic band, pinning it discreetly underneath with a bobby pin.
6. Use a 1.25-inch curling wand to add loose, undone bends through the ponytail lengths, then finger-comb to break them up into effortless waves.
7. Finish the entire style by misting with a flexible hold hairspray listed below to lock in the edge and keep flyaways controlled.
Going bold with your cut and color doesn’t have to feel intimidating! A rich wine or burgundy hue paired with a shoulder-skimming lob gives instant rocker-chic energy without needing hours of styling. The blunt micro bangs bring all the focus to your eyes and cheekbones, while loose, undone bends keep the whole look feeling casual and effortless.

How to do this
1. Start by prepping your freshly washed hair with the heat protectant spray listed below to shield your strands and keep your deep red vibrant.
2. Blow dry using a paddle brush, making sure to dry the bangs straight forward and flat against your forehead with the concentrator nozzle.
3. Using a 1.25-inch curling iron or flat iron, add subtle, irregular bends through the mid-lengths, leaving the very ends straight for an edgy, lived-in texture.
4. Shake out the waves with your fingers and mist the texturizing spray listed below through the lengths to build effortless volume and separation.
5. Define the tips of your micro bangs with a tiny amount of the matte styling wax listed below to give them that cool, piecey finish.
6. Finish with a spritz of flexible hold hairspray listed below to lock your style in place all day.
Are you completely obsessed with the 90s and early 2000s revival like I am?! This two-tone lob is giving the ultimate cool-girl nostalgia vibes with that bold blonde top canopy sitting over a moody brunette underlayer. The soft eyebrow-grazing bangs frame the eyes so beautifully, while those playful flipped-out ends add just the right amount of retro bounce. You can wear it sleek and straight or flip the ends even higher with a round brush for extra drama. It's edgy, fun, and totally effortless for everyday wear!
How to do this
1. Start by sectioning the hair horizontally from ear to ear, separating the top canopy from the underside nape area for the color placement.
2. Lighten the entire top canopy and fringe using the hair bleach lightening powder and developer listed below, while applying a rich brunette gloss to the underneath section.
3. Cut the perimeter to hit just above the shoulders, adding soft feathered layers throughout the crown and razor-cutting the ends to allow them to flick easily.
4. Cut a soft, brow-skimming fringe with subtle piecey texture across the forehead.
5. Prep towel-dried hair by applying a generous amount of the thermal blowout heat protectant spray listed below from mid-lengths to ends.
6. Blow-dry the fringe forward and smooth using a mini round brush, gently curving under at the tips.
7. Using the medium ceramic round brush listed below, blow-dry the lengths by rolling the ends outward and upward to create that signature playful flip.
8. Mist the ends with the flexible hold hairspray listed below and finish with a drop of smoothing hair serum to keep the two-tone colors ultra-glossy and frizz-free.
