Short Asymmetrical Dark Red Haircut With Orange Highlights

Short hair is a beautiful way to express your personality and stand out from the crowd. However, if you go for longer hair and limit it to one side of your head, you will be sure to stand out!. Short straight hairstyles are an excellent alternative for those who want to show off their tresses without the hassle. You only need a few minutes in front of the mirror with this unique short, straight, dark red Hairstyle with asymmetrical bangs and orange highlights. This short, straight and dark hair color is a must-try. The striking highlights add drama to your look, especially the asymmetric bangs that give you a cute 19th-century look. The back of this fantastic look is tapered into the neck with layers cut up to the crown for shape. The sides are angled down to form this asymmetric shape, perfect for those with long face shapes. The bangs are swept over to one side to soften the overall style and complete it magnificently.

It is a classic short hairstyle and works well with most face shapes. If you have an oval or round face shape, this style accentuates your features and works great as an alternative to the typical "longer" hairstyle. This straight hairstyle has a slight wave on top for some femininity and texture, making it more versatile in styling options than your traditional short straight hairstyle. Regular hair trimming can make any hairstyle last longer and keep it in shape.

Styling Steps

1. Apply Straightening Balm

Squeeze a small amount of straightening balm into your palms and then rub your hands together before smoothing the product evenly through damp hair.

2. Part to the Right

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.

3. Use a Medium Radial Brush

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.

4. Blow-dry the Back Under

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.

5. Blow-dry the Sides Under

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.

6. Blow-dry Hair Under to the Left

Take a section of your hair no wider than the diameter of your brush. Place your brush under and at the roots of your section. Then with your blow-dryer above, drag the brush up through the mid-lengths and ends of the hair following with your blow-dryer and pulling the hair to the left. Repeat until your hair is completely dry.

7. Blow-dry Bangs Forward to the Left

To blow-dry your bangs to the side, clip the back and side sections up, leaving just your bangs out. Place your brush beneath your bangs, holding your hair to the side and remembering to hold the tension between your hair and brush. With your blow-dryer on a low setting, apply heat by starting at the roots and make sure to stretch your hair out to the ends. Repeat until your hair is dry.

8. Apply Smoothing Shine

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.

9. 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.
