Carey’s pixie can be achieved by applying set and style all over strands and blow dry with a comb, pushing hair back and forth over the rounds of the head. Drying with a comb minimizes volume and gives hair a satiny finish. Mist shine spray on hands and run through ends for added sparkle.
To create Khloe’s ombre, talk to your colorist about creating darker roots and brighter ends. Choose a graduation of color that is not too stark, and that fits with your complexion, wardrobe, and makeup palette. To achieve her style, execute a round brush blowdry. This will give you lots of root lift and body, while bending the brush in ‘C’ shapes towards the ends will create the curve you can see in Khloe’s style. To do….
Step: Towel-dry hair to damp. Liberally apply volume foam and styling whip at roots and work through to mid-lengths and ends.
Step: Blowdry roots to ends with large round brush. Be sure to lift hair off root before winding onto brush to ensure most root lift. Focus on a curvaceous shape.
Step: Use comb to create a center-part. Keep it slightly off of center so the face isn’t symmetrical.
Step: If you need a bit more bend on the ends, use curling iron to add tousle.
Amanda’s wave can be achieved by following the below steps:
Step: To replicate the shimmer in Nina’s style, use shine luxe shampoo and conditioner for a luxurious cleanse that encourages glister.
Step: Cocktail volume foam and styling whip and work through hair from roots to ends. Foam adds body and bounce; whip creates luster and shine.
Step: Blowdry with hands. Dry from roots to ends, and push hair around –– off the root, up and down, round and round –– to encourage natural texture.
Step: Stop when almost dry. Using the arch of the eyebrow as guide, create a side part. Tuck the short side behind ear. Mist the long side with protective thickening lotion.
Step: Starting about halfway down the hair shaft, curl the long side side with a curling iron or wand. Once curled, brush out the curls into cascading ‘S’ shaped waves that tumble romantically down the neck and shoulders.
Step: If desired, curl the short side a little, creating whimsical flair. But be sure to keep this side tucked back.
Step: Mist finished style with primp working spray for texture, hold and grip.
Diane’s top bun can be achieved by following the below steps.
Step: Towel dry hair to damp. Apply detangling gel.
Step: Blowdry hair from roots to ends, brushing down to achieve a smooth look or leave air dry for a loose and un-done look.
Step: For a sleek look, style by working some hair gel through hair, then use a flat brush to brush all of the hair to the top of the head. Pull hair into a tight ponytail at the top of the head and secure with an elastic. Repeat steps without products for a loose, un-done look.
Step: Tightly wrap hair around itself into a bun, then secure with bobby pins. Mist with holding spray.
Blake’s sleek look with a touch of curl can be archived by following the below steps:
Step: Cocktail styling whip and volume foam and apply to damp hair, roots to ends.
Step: Use a 1-inch curling iron to curl hair, and pin-set whole head. Allow to dry naturally, or speed up by using a diffuser attachment on your blowdryer.
Step: Once dry, unwind, and release pin-set. Brush out the set until the curls break up as much as you want.
Step: Make a side-part by using the outside arch of eyebrow as guide. Tuck the short side behind ear. Pin if necessary.
Step: Allow the waves on the long side to tumble down the side of the face, draping sexily over shoulders.
