How to do this
1. Start by prepping clean, dry hair with a lightweight smoothing serum and thermal protection using the heat protectant spray listed below.
2. Use a large 1.5-inch curling wand to create soft, cascading waves through the mid-lengths and ends, making sure to curl away from the face.
3. Leave out a few delicate face-framing strands around the temples and ears to soften the perimeter.
4. Take a generous 2-to-3-inch section of hair from behind one ear and weave a neat Dutch braid across the top of your head like a tiara, pinning it securely behind the opposite ear using the bobby pins listed below.
5. Gently pull apart and pancake the loops of your braid to give it a full, lush, regal appearance.
6. Slide a decorative crescent moon hairpin or celestial barrette directly into the side of the braided headband.
7. Mist all over with a touch of the flexible hold hairspray listed below to lock in the romantic waves and tame flyaways all day.
This look is the ultimate romantic Dutch braid into a low bun. You begin by carving out a thick section right along your hairline and Dutch braiding it under to create that thick, elevated crown effect. Then, wrap everything back into a soft chignon at the nape, gently pull out the edges of the braid for max volume, and let a few wispy face-framing tendrils float freely.
How to do this
1. Start by prepping your dry hair with the texturizing spray listed below to give your strands enough grip and volume for braiding.
2. Leave out a soft section of hair in front of each ear to act as your face-framing tendrils later on.
3. Create a deep side parting and begin an inverted Dutch braid along the hairline, weaving the outer strands underneath the center strand while gathering small sections from both sides as you work backward toward the nape.
4. Once the braid reaches behind your ear, transition into a standard three-strand braid to the ends and secure it temporarily using the clear mini elastic bands listed below.
5. Gather the remaining loose hair at the back into a low ponytail at the nape, then wrap and twist it into a neat, textured low bun, pinning it securely with the sturdy bobby pins listed below.
6. Wrap the tail of your Dutch braid over and around the base of the bun, tucking the tail underneath and pinning it firmly in place.
7. Gently pull and pancake the outer loops of the Dutch braid to create that wide, voluminous, plush appearance.
8. Soften your face-framing tendrils with a quick touch from a styling iron and lock the entire updo in place with the flexible hold finishing hairspray listed below.
I know going pastel can feel like a total commitment, but honestly, looking at these dreamy lavender curls makes every single salon hour completely worth it! The deep side sweep gives so much natural body, and if you’ve been looking for a sign to lean into fairytale hair, this is it!
How to do this
1. Start by prepping your freshly washed, damp curls using the leave-in curl defining cream listed below to lock in hydration and fight frizz.
2. Gently rake a quarter-sized amount of the lightweight styling gel listed below from mid-lengths to ends, using prayer hands to distribute evenly.
3. Flip your head upside down and scrunch upward towards the scalp using a microfiber towel to encourage natural ringlets and curl clumping.
4. Attach the universal hair diffuser nozzle listed below to your blow dryer, setting it to low speed and medium heat, gently cupping sections until your curls are 80-90% dry.
5. Flip hair upright, create a deep dramatic side part with your fingers to build maximum crown volume, and let it fully air-dry.
6. Once totally dry, break the gel cast by scrunching a couple of drops of the lightweight shine hair oil listed below through the mid-lengths and ends for soft, touchable bounce.
7. Mist with the color-depositing purple toning spray listed below whenever your pastel lilac tone needs a fresh, vibrant boost between salon visits.
This hairstyle is what I like to call the midnight sky constellation look. You start by giving your long dark locks some soft, flowy waves using a curling wand and finger-brushing them out. Then, instead of just wearing it down, you scatter shimmering rhinestone star pins across the crown in connected constellation patterns. It creates the most magical, dreamy vibe that's totally out of this world.
How to do this
1. Start with clean, dry hair and apply a generous mist of the heat protectant spray listed below to safeguard your strands against thermal styling.
2. Using the 1.25-inch ceramic curling wand listed below, take medium sections of hair and wrap them loosely around the barrel, leaving the very ends slightly straight for a natural, undone wave.
3. Once all sections are curled and cooled, gently rake through the waves with your fingers or the wide-tooth comb listed below to soften them into loose S-bends.
4. Mist with the lightweight texturizing spray listed below at the crown and mid-lengths to add grip, separation, and subtle definition.
5. Lay hair flat or arrange your loose waves, then carefully slide in the celestial star hairpin set listed below across the crown to create your constellation design.
6. Finish the style with a light mist of the flexible hold hairspray listed below to lock the strands and delicate accessories securely in place.
