Layers are cut around the edges of these tresses to help encourage the bounce of the waves added to the mid-lengths to ends.

Antonique Smith glows here in a wavy layered hairstyle that makes the most of her hair’s natural texture. She has an oval face shape so pretty much anything goes, but the side part and loose curls are especially nice features that soften up her strong jawline, while creating a frame for her face. The side part works well with her high forehead and creates a nice angle. Antonique has bold and expressive features so a soft and simple ‘do like this one is just what she needs.

As for her color, Antonique has gone for a striking dark gold shade that looks fabulous with her medium-dark skin tone. Her complexion is golden/warm based so any color that has gold or yellow tones to it will work nicely for her. This is a good shade for ladies with dark skin and eyes to try out if they want to lighten up a few shades.

Antonique Smith is an American Broadway, film and television actress, and a Grammy nominated singer and songwriter.
