Paget Brewster Long Wavy Black Hairstyle


Added: 16 Aug 2015
A combination of medium to long layers are cut around the sides and back of these dark tresses to enhance the bounce and movement of the large waves added to the mid-lengths to ends. This hairdo is easy to re-create at home and great for those with fine to medium hair. Regular trims is needed to prevent split ends.

Paget Brewster looks glamorous here in shiny black locks that have been styled up for a night on the town. This is a simple hairstyle that is easy to create and shows off a great color, like Paget’s raven black hue. Paget has straight, layered hair and by adding curls throughout the ends she instantly amps up the volume in her hair and adds some texture. She has an oblong face shape and high, broad forehead which looks great with long layers that frame the face, but in this case a side part or fringe would be better suited to her high forehead and straight hairline.

Paget has classic porcelain skin, which is very fair and cool with pink undertones. Her eyes are dark brown and paired up with black hair, this creates a striking contrast. Her jet black locks bring out her eye color nicely and gives her a pretty Snow White look combined with her fair skin. If Paget wanted to lighten it up a bit, she would also suit light reddish brown tones as well.

Paget Brewster is an American actress. Her best-known roles are Kathy on NBC's Friends and Emily Prentiss on CBS's Criminal Minds.

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

A medium radial brush is used on medium to long hair types to smooth out wavy or curly hair textures or to add body to straight hair. 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

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


step 5

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


step 6

Apply a small amount of wax to your fingertips and then lightly piece and pinch the ends of your hair.


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.
