Piper Perabo Long Wavy Light Blonde Hairstyle


Added: 05 Sep 2016
Loose waves are dressed through the sides and back of these blonde locks to give the over-all style subtle movement and bounce. This casual style is easy to re-create at home with the right tools and needs a little product to tame fly-away hair. Regular trims is needed to prevent split ends.

Piper Perabo looks lovely here in a cool, casual wavy hairstyle. Having an oval face shape and high hairline, Piper's face looks best in ‘dos with a grown out fringe and longer layers around the face. This simple cut creates a nice frame around her cheekbones and allows her hair’s natural texture to do its thing, adding body and bounce all over. The longer layers softens up her jaw line area and gives her tresses some movement. A center part finishes this ‘do off nicely and works well with her high forehead.

Piper has a peaches and cream complexion with golden undertones and amber eyes. This makes her suited to hair colors that have a yellow or gold base to them, like the light honey blonde seen here. This natural-looking shade is ideal for Piper's complexion and it brings out the intensity of her eye color. It also completes her hair's beachy look.

Piper Perabo is an American stage, film, and television actress. She may be best known for playing CIA Agent Annie Walker on the spy drama series Covert Affairs, which ran on the USA Network for five seasons between 2010 and 2014.

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

Tilt your head forward and then run your fingers through, scrunching as you go, until dry. Once your hair is dry, place the strands into the desired position.


step 4

Use your blow-dryer and your fingers to dry the back of your hair by moving your hair around to allow the heat to pass through it.


step 5

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


step 6

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 7

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


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.
