Long Wavy Copper Red Hairstyle with Red Highlights


Added: 20 Oct 2011
Red hair is a lovely and fun addition for any girl. The natural color on the ends will soften your look, while the highlights add depth and dimension. It is a great way to try out a bright red color that can still be controlled and manageable.

Our model is wearing this long wavy copper red hairstyle with red highlights. The black streaks, smoky eyes, and pink natural lips tone down the elegance of the look. Long and luscious is the main aim of this look. For this hairstyle, waves and curls are added to the mid-lengths to ends to complement the length and add plenty of movement and bounce. This long wavy, copper red hairstyle perfectly suits women with oval, round, heart, and triangular face shapes. It can give a retro look to the user with natural waves and curls. Using red highlights on formal hair adds volume and enhances the texture of the hair. This hairstyle is the perfect option to create a flattering look. The long wavy copper color, highlighted with red, is beautiful on all skin tones and hair types. It is best suited for those with fine to medium hair. This look is easy to re-create at home and will need a product for hold and shine.

The long wavy, copper red hairstyle is one of the most popular trends right now, and this is one of the most flattering hairstyles to maintain every week. Tint your ends with some lowlights, and then maintain this look with regular trims every 4 to 6 weeks. Use your smoothing shine to add a small amount of gloss and to reduce flyaways.

step 1

Apply a small amount of hair moisturizer to the palm of your hand and distribute it evenly through the mid-lengths and the ends. Moisturizer will help your hair to maintain good condition and protect your strands from heat as you style.


step 2

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your right eye 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 right part. A side part is great for longer face shapes because it creates the illusion of width.


step 3

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 4

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 5

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 6

To blow-dry the top section back you will need to take your brush and firstly make sure that the section is no wider than the diameter of the brush. Next, place your brush on top of your head and under your section. Using your blow-dryer on a medium setting, blow-dry your hair from the roots, slowly lifting your hair up and working your way to the ends. Make sure to keep the blow-dryer in front of the brush at all times. Continue this step until the top section is completely dry.


step 7

A medium curling iron is used to create medium sized curls.


step 8

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 9

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


step 10

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 11

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.
