These highlighted locks are pulled back, braided and pinned to the back of the head while the top has been backcombed and smoothed high for a voluminous finish. This fancy upstyle is best suited to complement a triangular face. This look can be re-created at home with the right tools and needs product for shine and hold.

Lady Victoria Hervey goes for an eyecatching up-do here that is ideal for a formal night out. Victoria has a triangular face shape and a wide, high forehead that looks great with most hairdos, especially up-dos like this one. Her medium-fine tresses have been teased to create maximum volume at the crown of the head and front hairline while the rest of her locks have been braided to the back. Overall, this hairstyle works well for her face shape and high forehead, and makes the most of her hair length.

Victoria is a natural dark ash blonde and looks best in shades of medium to light blonde, thanks to her warm skin tone and bright green eyes. This particular shade of blonde has golden undertones to it that gives her strands a glossy finish. Her roots have grown out a couple of inches which creates a gorgeous two-tone look which giving her tresses extra volume.

Lady Victoria Frederica Isabella Hervey is an English model, socialite, aristocrat, and former "It girl".

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 your blow-dryer, dry your hair using your fingers, separating the hair and allowing it to dry at the roots first then the mid lengths and then the ends. Making sure the roots are dry first will ensure that your hairstyle does not fall flat.


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 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 5

Pick up a small selection of hair from your mid section no bigger than your tail comb. Place your comb at the roots and then comb up and down until the hair is standing up by itself. Continue to the crown and finish at the sides. Repeat this step if you require more volume.


step 6

Once your hairstyle is complete, hold your hair into place and then pin your hair into your desired direction.


step 7

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.
