These lush locks are left out to fall over the shoulders showing off the loose waves through the sides and back while the long bangs are smoothed down to frame the of the face for a contrasted look and feel. This hairstyle is easy to re-create at home with the right tools and needs product for shine and hold and shine.

Karrueche Tran goes for a cool Seventies-inspired ‘do here with fabulous results. Karrueche has a heart shaped face with the signature high forehead and dainty chin area. This hairstyle is an excellent choice for her as her high forehead is covered with an eye-skimming fringe and the focus is brought to her eyes and cheekbones. The softly layered waves around the jaw and neck create a nice frame for Kerrueche’s face shape and softens up her overall look. It also balances out her thick hair texture nicely and reduces extra bulk.

As for her color, Kerrueche goes for a wheat blonde tone that compliments her warm skin tone beautifully. She has a warm complexion with golden undertones and dark brown eyes. While she would suit dark brown hair nicely too, Kerrueche looks wonderful in this light blonde tone that gives her a sun-kissed glow. Subtle highlights throughout give this color a natural-looking finish.

Karrueche Tran is an American model and actress.

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

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 3

To blow-dry under, start at the nape/back and place your brush under the section of hair close to the nape. With the dryer held up over the hair, pull the brush from the roots and continue to the mid length's, keeping the blow-dryer following over the top. Once you reach the ends, curve them under. Repeat this step until the section is completely dry.


step 4

To blow-dry the sides, take out a small section of hair from the front and clip the rest of the hair away. Next, place the brush under the section and then pull the brush and hair forward around your face (this curving motion creates body). Place the hair-dryer on top of the brush until you reach the ends and then turn the ends under. Repeat until dry.


step 5

When blow-drying your bangs forward, clip your hair back leaving only your bangs out. Position your bangs evenly in your brush, taking the hair in a forward direction. Blow-dry from roots to ends, keeping the tension consistent, and evenly distribute heat over the whole section of hair that you are working on. Repeat until the hair is dry. This will stop any frizz that may occur.


step 6

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


step 7

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 8

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 9

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.
