Lea Michele Long Wavy Mocha Hairstyle


Added: 24 Aug 2015
These gorgeous brown tresses are parted down the middle, pulled back and pinned to the head to create this half-up look best suited to complement a round face. The length and long layers are draped over the shoulders showing off the loose waves and movement. Product is needed to tame fly-away hair.

Lea Michele is sporting a funky half up-do here with a bohemian twist. This hairstyle is perfect for women like Lea who have long thick hair. Her long wavy locks look gorgeous with a center part and a twist on either side. Lea has an oval face shape with a strong bone structure, which are both highlighted with the center part and the layers cut around the face. Lea also has a high, straight hairline, which looks great with a sharp center part. This hairstyle is an excellent option for women who want to keep their hair down but off the face at the same time.

Lea has olive skin and intense brown eyes, making her suited to brunette and deep red shades the best. Here, Lea is wearing a rich chestnut brown hair color with caramel highlights throughout. This warm, vibrant hair color looks fabulous with her tanned skin and brown eyes.

Lea Michele is an American singer, actress, and author, best known for her performance as Rachel Berry on the Fox television series Glee.

step 1

Apply styling mousse to damp hair, using your palm as a measuring guide, and evenly distribute it along the hair shaft. Styling mousse will add hold and can help achieve better results.


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

Using your blow-dryer, dry your hair using your fingers, separating the hair and allowing it to dry at the roots first then the mid lengths and then the ends. Making sure the roots are dry first will ensure that your hairstyle does not fall flat.


step 4

A large curling iron is used to create large soft curls and can be used to add body.


step 5

Take a small section of hair and place the ends at the base of your curling iron barrel and then wrap the hair up around the barrel until you reach your mid-lengths. Hold the hair for 5 to 10 seconds and then release the hair by unwinding the strands backwards.


step 6

Once your hairstyle is complete, hold your hair into place and then pin your hair into your desired direction.


step 7

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 8

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.
