Added: 30 Aug 2012
Autumn is having a party, and this caramel brunette hairstyle makes the perfect statement. End this season on a high note with our sexy fall hair color trends. This style gives you the warm caramel look without the commitment. It is perfect for those who want to add length and volume without the use of styling products.

Our model with grey-colored eyes is drawing attention with her straight caramel brunette hairstyle, complemented by side-swept bangs. The light blonde highlights bring more saturation to this hairdo. Her contoured face matches her deep-tanned skin tone. Soft and sexy is what this highlighted hairstyle is about. For the hair styling, this look is blow-waved smooth from root to tip, with movement added to the ends for shape and style. The bangs are smoothed over to the side to soften the face and complete the overall 'do magnificently. This gorgeous hairstyle is a great pick for a shorter face shape. The high cheekbones, thin eyebrows, and thin hair define the oval or oblong face shape. The bangs add more length to your face while still keeping it soft and smooth. You can easily modify this look by using a darker shade of blonde highlights and adding extra light to the ends of your hair.

This long straight caramel brunette hairstyle with side swept bangs and light blonde highlights is ideal for a confident, professional look. Direct your hair into position while applying the finishing products. Regular trims are needed every 4-6 weeks to maintain a healthy look and feel.

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

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 to the side, section your hair up and clip your hair back to leave only your bangs out. Remember to make sure that your bangs are damp to make blow-drying more effective. Next, take your brush and place it underneath the hair and then blow-dry starting from the roots, adding tension to the hair as you go. Slowly pull your section down to the ends and continue until dry.


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 wax to your fingertips then drag through your bangs, sweeping the hair to the right as you go. Pinching the ends will create soft texture.


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.
