Description

Height and texture is the main idea for this hairstyle. The back and one side is tapered into the head, leaving the opposite side longer sporting jagged cut and layers for an symmetric look and feel. The top section is teased at the root adding plenty of height and lift at the crown making this fab 'do best suited for those with round face shapes.

Styling Steps

1. Pin Hair

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

2. Style Hair Down at the Back Using Moulding Cream

Apply some moulding cream to your fingertips and then pull it through the ends of your hair in a downward motion to achieve a textured look.

3. Style Sides Down Using Moulding Cream

Using a small amount of moulding cream, work it through the mid-lengths and ends in a downward motion. For added texture, pinch the ends as you go sparingly.

4. Lift Roots Using Moulding Cream

Apply some moulding cream to your fingertips and then rub it into your roots while lifting your strands for added body. Be sure not to use too much moulding cream at the roots as this can result in a glugy and thick uncomfortable feel.

5. Style Bangs to the Right Using Moulding Cream

Apply moulding cream to your fingertips then gently rake through your bangs, sweeping the hair to the right as you go. Be careful not to use too much product as it can become sticky and clumpy.

6. Apply Hairspray

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.
