Visual Story
Description
Jennifer Hudson was spotted rocking a cool short ‘do on the red carpet. Jennifer has gone for some retro styling here. But instead of going for a Fifties crop, Jennifer is flaunting an awesome Eighties bowl cut. This hairstyle is perfect for women with big expressive facial features like Jen’s, and also for those who want to keep one step ahead of the fashion game. Because of the blunt fringe, this ‘do is a no-no for square and round face shapes, but is a winner for oval, oblong, and diamond shaped faces.
Short and simple is the main idea for this hairdo. The back is tapered into the nape while top and sides are layered then smoothed down for a low-fuss finish. Product is needed to keep this look in place and regular trims every 4-6 weeks will help maintain style.

Styling Steps
1. Wax Hair Down at the Back
Apply some wax to your fingertips and then pull through the ends of your hair in a downward motion to achieve a sculptured look. Pinch clumps of hair in different directions for a messier result.
2. Style Sides Down Using Wax
Using a small amount of wax, work it through the mid-lengths and ends in a downward, pinching motion. For added texture, apply more pinching and more wax.
3. Flatten the Top Using Wax
Apply wax to the palms of your hands, and then starting at the top-back area, drag your hands forward, flattening your hair down as you go. For a wetter look use more wax.
4. Style Bangs Forward Using Wax
Apply a small amount of wax to your fingertips, and then using your fingers, rake through your bangs pinching the ends as you go to create a feathered, textured effect.
