Last Minute Valentine's Day Hairstyles
Posted by Margaret Barnhart on 14th Feb 2017
Valentine’s day is upon us! Our nails are done, our outfits
picked out, reservations made, and we can’t wait to try out
our new lipstick, but
if you’re anything like us you haven’t decided on a hairstyle!
With so many hairstyle options, the struggle is real! Lucky for you, we’ve scoured
the trends and put together 4 styles that will make you swoon on the most
romantic day of the year.
Classic Curls
Show off your layers, and add volume and bounce with the
classic date night style, curls! Begin with an anti-frizz spray to keep
flyaways to a minimum, separate hair into layered sections for a fuller effect,
use a barrel iron or the Env by Kenchii slim iron to create lively curls. Soften the look by running your fingers through
the curls, then finish with a medium hold hairspray for a pretty and feminine style!
Accessorize
Don’t ignore your accessories! Your style may not be as bold
as this floral crown, but adding a decorative headband, vintage style comb, or
hair jewelry can dress up everyday styles and turn them into enviable date night looks. Hair jewelry is a fast growing trend, we're seeing it on our beloved celebs and on the runways. Adorn your strands with crystals, metallic hair tattoos, or smooth decorative chain for a unique and dramatic look.
Braids
From casual to high class, braids are so versatile! The half
up waterfall braid pictured above is stunning and simple. Deeply part your hair
and start this style like you would a classic French braid, create a few braid
twists for a secure start, then as the top strand twists to become the bottom
strand, drop the hair and gather another section of hair from the bottom to
build up into the braid, move down the head and gather another section from the
top. Continue alternating between dropping and gathering new hair sections to
weave into the braid. Work the style along the edges of your head and secure
with an embellished bobby pin for a perfect finishing touch.
Sleek & Straight
You can’t go wrong with sleek, straight hair. Flaunt your fabulous
highlights or show off your length by smoothing your tresses with the Env by Kenchii Slim Iron. For touchable, shiny hair
blow dry wet hair with a boar and nylon bristle round brush. The Rapide brush from Kenchii Professional has boar and
nylon bristles to enhance shine and a ceramic coated barrel to smooth hair as
you dry. Plus, we can’t get over the candy apple red barrel!
This Valentine's day love is in the air and the hair!
Love yourself, love your style! xoxo
