This is a perfect hairstyle idea for women. It will give you the unique look of a smart, stylish, and confident person who will stand out in any crowd. You can be creative with your hairstyles and make them look different according to the event you are attending. This is a short and straight hairstyle with deep brown highlights, the perfect hairstyle for an alternative look.

Our model is flaunting a short dark copper blonde hairstyle with light blonde highlights that contains textured layers, and it looks uplifting. Overall, the model looks gorgeous in this hairstyle! The back is tapered into the neck to contour the back of the head, blending into the textured layers through the sides and back which create height and lift. This short hairstyle is for women with oval, oblong and diamond face shapes, with hair of thin or medium density. If your hair is of fine or medium texture, you can wear this hairstyle easily. The height of the root area and jawline will also play a major role while selecting the right length. This style is a great choice for women who like their hair short and layered, but prefer a little texture to it.

This elegant hairstyle is ideal for people who want to enhance their natural beauty and create a look that compliments their face. The hair can be straightened with a hairdryer in between trimmings after 4 to 6 weeks to maintain the style. Fluff the styling products into the ends of your hair and pinch as you go to create textured edges.

step 1

Apply styling mousse to damp hair, using your palm as a measuring guide, and evenly distribute it along the hair shaft. Styling mousse will add hold and can help achieve better results.


step 2

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your left 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 left part. A side part is great for longer face shapes because it creates the illusion of width.


step 3

A small radial brush is used on shorter hair types to add more body or in longer hair types to create curl. When selecting a radial brush, always use one with a pure bristle as this will not tear or damage the hair.


step 4

When blow-drying your bangs forward, clip your hair back leaving only your bangs out. Position your bangs evenly in your brush, taking the hair in a forward direction. Blow-dry from roots to ends, keeping the tension consistent, and evenly distribute heat over the whole section of hair that you are working on. Repeat until the hair is dry. This will stop any frizz that may occur.


step 5

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 right. Repeat until your hair is completely dry.


step 6

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.


step 7

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 8

Using wax and your fingers grab the mid-lengths of your hair and then drag it out and upwards for a full and messy result. Remember not to overdo the wax or your result will be a flat and greasy style.


step 9

To finish the look, apply wax to your fingertips, making sure to smooth the wax over all of your fingers, then simply pinch the wax onto the ends of your hair, applying as much or as little as needed.


step 10

Apply some hard wax to your fingertips and then rub it into your roots while lifting your strands for soft volume.


step 11

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.
