Loose waves are added to the mid-lengths to ends of these light brown locks to give the over-all style movement for a soft look and feel. This sweet and simple hairdo is great for those with fine to medium hair and needs regular trims to prevent split ends. Product is needed for hold and shine.
Mel Rodriguez goes for a city chic look here with a wavy shoulder length bob. Mel’s thick hair texture looks great in this blunt-cut ‘do that frames her round face shape well. Having a low forehead and straight hairline, Mel suits a grown out fringe best, as seen here. The subtle waves and blunt cut edges gives her round face shape some structure plus they show off her high cheekbones and eye area. Although this cut would look great worn straight, the large kinky waves give Mel’s 'do added body and volume.
Mel has a tanned complexion and dark eyes with naturally dark hair and eyebrows. She looks best in deep brunette hair tones but thanks to her warm complexion, she can also lighten her locks up to a caramel brown with fantastic results. This color lightens up her look without washing her out, which is something to watch out for when women with dark features and a tanned or olive skin tone go blonde or light brown.

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