Chrissie Fit Long Wavy Black Hairstyle


Added: 26 Jun 2015
These gorgeous dark locks are blow-waved perfectly to smooth down the top while adding subtle waves through the ends for movement and bounce. This hairstyle is easy to re-create at home with the right tools and great for any occasion. Product is needed to tame fly-away hair.

Chrissie Fit looks gorgeous here in a vintage-inspired ‘do that is full of body and bounce. Like most women with naturally thick, curly hair, a blowout takes time and patience, but the results are worth it! Chrissie’s hair looks sleek and elegant, and provides the perfect balance to her oblong face shape. Ladies with a narrow face like Chrissie benefit from big, voluminous styles that add more visual width to the face. The soft curls at the ends contour her jawline nicely as well.

Color-wise, Chrissie is staying within her hair’s natural color range and goes for a glossy black tone. This works well with her tan skin tone and dark features. Dark hair looks especially good when it is one uniform shade (rather than highlighted), as highlights can sometimes dull dark hair and break up that nice glossy finish.

Chrissie Fit is an American actress and singer who is best known for her role on the medical soap opera General Hospital.

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 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

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

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

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.
