Halle Berry Long Straight Brunette Hairstyle


Added: 15 May 2018
The ends and of this style are layered and razor cut, then blow-waved perfectly to smooth down the top for a sexy look and feel. The 'do is parted in the center to complete the over-all hairstyle brilliantly. Product is needed to tame fly-away hair and add shine.

Halle Berry goes for a cool, casual look here with a center parted layered cut that falls to her chest. This hairstyle might be simple but it is anything but boring, thanks to the colorful hair wrap that she has added for extra style. Halle has an oblong face shape which has an overly vertical silhouette to it that is flattered nicely by this simple hairstyle. The grown out fringe and center part works well with her rounded hairline and frames her eyes nicely. This ‘do can also be pulled back for extra versatility and is a great option for ladies with medium to thick, straight locks.

Halle has a medium warm complexion and can pull off both golden and brown colors the best. Here she is rocking a duotone look, with dark golden brown roots and lengths and caramel blonde at the mid-lengths and tips that looks fantastic with her glowing complexion and dark eyes. This is a chic and fashion-forward way to add highlights to the hair without going the traditional route. This color technique is ideal for thick, straight hair like Halle's.

step 1

Apply a small amount of hair moisturizer to the palm of your hand and distribute it evenly through the mid-lengths and the ends. Moisturizer will help your hair to maintain good condition and protect your strands from heat as you style.


step 2

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your nose and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even middle part. A middle part is a great way to make small, round face shapes appear longer and thinner.


step 3

A large radial brush is usually used on long straight hair types or to smooth out wavy or curly hair textures. When selecting a radial brush, always use one with a pure bristle as this will not tear or damage the hair.


step 4

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the nape/back. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends.


step 5

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the sides. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends. Repeat this step on a new section directly above the dry one.


step 6

To blow-dry the crown/top sections, take a section of hair no bigger than the diameter of the brush and blow-dry the hair placing the brush under the section of hair. With your blow-dryer in front of the brush, follow the brush in an upwards direction at the roots and an outwards position at the ends for volume and softness. Continue until the section is dry.


step 7

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush underneath the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in a forward and downward direction with your blow-dryer above. Be sure the section is dry and then repeat the step on a new section of hair directly above.


step 8

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush underneath the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in a forward and downward direction with your blow-dryer above. Be sure the section is dry and then repeat the step on a new section of hair directly above.


step 9

When straightening your hair, first make sure that your hair is completely dry. Then, section your hair off starting from the back/nape using a comb. Straighten your hair starting from the roots and working your way down to the ends using your comb as your guide. Make sure not to leave the straightening iron in one spot for more than 3 seconds.

step 10

Apply a very small amount of smoothing shine to the palms of your hands and then run it through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. Be careful not to add any to the roots or a large amount to any section of the hair as smoothing shine can be very heavy on the hair, weighing it down and making it appear oily.


step 11

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
