Long Sleek Multi-Tone Hairstyle


Added: 17 Jul 2017
The ends and of this style are blunt cut and blow-waved perfectly to smooth down the top for a sexy look and feel. The long bangs are parted in the center to complete the over-all hairstyle brilliantly. Product is needed to tame fly-away hair and add shine.

Our model goes for a cool, casual look here with a center parted blunt cut that falls just past her shoulders. This hairstyle might be simple but it is anything but boring. She has a triangular face shape which has a wide, broad forehead and narrow cheeks and chin is flattered nicely by this ‘do. The grown out fringe and center part works well with her straight, low hairline and frames her eyes nicely. This ‘do can also be pulled back for extra versatility and is a great option for ladies with medium to thick, straight locks.

Our model has a neutral complexion and can pull off both warm and cool colors. Here she is rocking both warm and cool tones, with cool espresso brown roots and lengths and a dark golden blonde at the tips that looks fantastic with her fair complexion and green eyes. This is a chic and fashion-forward way to add highlights to the hair without going the traditional route. This color technique is ideal for thick, straight hair like our model.

step 1

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 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

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the nape/back. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends.


step 4

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the sides. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends. Repeat this step on a new section directly above the dry one.


step 5

To blow-dry the crown/top sections, take a section of hair no bigger than the diameter of the brush and blow-dry the hair placing the brush under the section of hair. With your blow-dryer in front of the brush, follow the brush in an upwards direction at the roots and an outwards position at the ends for volume and softness. Continue until the section is dry.


step 6

When straightening your hair, first make sure that your hair is completely dry. Then, section your hair off starting from the back/nape using a comb. Straighten your hair starting from the roots and working your way down to the ends using your comb as your guide. Make sure not to leave the straightening iron in one spot for more than 3 seconds.

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.
