Freida Pinto Medium Wavy Black Hairstyle


Added: 13 Dec 2015
Large loose waves are dressed through the mid-lengths to ends to give this formal style plenty of volume and bounce. This is easy to achieve at home with right tools and needs product for shine and hold. Regular trims is needed every 4-6 weeks to prevent split ends.

Freida Pinto looks gorgeous here in a curly chin length bob. This hairstyle shows off her thick, glossy tresses and frames her oval face shape well. Freida has strong features and a low forehead, so a simple uniform cut like this bob is ideal for her. The grown out fringe is just right for her too, as it works with her low forehead and with this particular cut, creates a sexy peek-a-boo effect. This graduated cut shows off her fabulous bone structure and her thick locks effortlessly.

Freida has medium-dark skin tone, brown eyes and naturally dark hair and eyebrows. She is best suited to black and dark brown hair but could also pull off caramel and golden brown tones too. Here, she goes for a glossy black base with subtle golden brown highlights throughout the ends. This gives her complexion a warm glow and makes her amber brown eyes stand out.

Freida Pinto is an Indian actress who has appeared mainly in American and British films.

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 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 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 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

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush on top of the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in a backward direction with your blow-dryer following in front. Be sure the section is dry and then repeat the step on a new section of hair directly behind.


step 6

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush on top of the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in a backward direction with your blow-dryer following in front. Be sure the section is dry and then repeat the step on a new section of hair directly behind.


step 7

A large curling iron is used to create large soft curls and can be used to add body.


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

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 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.
