Long And Smooth Hairstyle For Thick Hair


Added: 10 Nov 2010
This long straight hairstyle is gorgeous and easy to style with just a few simple steps. Just keep it clean and dry, then use any hairspray to make it sleek and smooth. Whether you want a full head of shiny blonde locks or just one side for a more dramatic look, we've got the right cut for you.

Our model is wearing a gorgeous long straight hairstyle with a glossy white smile on her pouty lips. She wears a black and gray striped top cropped on one side which is perfect for this model's stunning straight hair. This slick and smooth hairstyle is cut at one length to maintain a solid edge. Long bangs are swept over to one side to complement the face and complete the sleek look superbly. The long straight hairstyle is suited for women with medium to fine hair texture. For round faces, the long hairstyle will work best with a side part; for oval faces and heart-shaped faces, the hair can be straightened all the way down to the shoulders. Thick hair will require more care during the application of the product and styling. It's perfect for formal work events and weddings.

This hairstyle is perfect for those with long and thick hair. You can maintain this hairstyle with regular trimming after 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your desired style. Use the straightening iron to give your hair a dead straight finish.

step 1

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


step 2

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 3

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the nape/back. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends.


step 4

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the sides. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends. Repeat this step on a new section directly above the dry one.


step 5

When blow-drying your bangs to the side, section your hair up and clip your hair back to leave only your bangs out. Remember to make sure that your bangs are damp to make blow-drying more effective. Next, take your brush and place it underneath the hair and then blow-dry starting from the roots, adding tension to the hair as you go. Slowly pull your section down to the ends and continue until dry.


step 6

To blow-dry the crown/top sections, take a section of hair no bigger than the diameter of the brush and blow-dry the hair placing the brush under the section of hair. With your blow-dryer in front of the brush, follow the brush in an upwards direction at the roots and an outwards position at the ends for volume and softness. Continue until the section is dry.


step 7

When straightening your hair, first make sure that your hair is completely dry. Then, section your hair off starting from the back/nape using a comb. Straighten your hair starting from the roots and working your way down to the ends using your comb as your guide. Make sure not to leave the straightening iron in one spot for more than 3 seconds.

step 8

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 9

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.
