Three simple hairstyles to try on Saturday night
If you’re anything like us, a planned night on the town comes with its own military-levels of organisation - outfit prepped, itinerary scheduled, makeup look practiced in advance. But when it comes to the hair, it can often all fall down - quite literally.
If you’re heading out on the tiles tonight, for a dinner date or a night out dancing, we’ve got you covered, with three super-chic hairstyles that are simple to recreate and will take you less than ten minutes to achieve.
The fake blow-dry
Not everyone has time to go all-out with the rollers or make a trip to the salon– so fake it instead. Add volume and texture to the hair with a thickening spray (even a dry shampoo will do - this one is our favourite) and use a wide-barrel tong to create loose, bouncy curls and waves through the mid-lengths. Part the hair in a deep side parting, mist with a glossing spray for just-been-the-salon shine, and add in a glitzy hair slide. Quick, easy, and seriously glamorous – we’re in!
Ribbons and bows
Give a simple half-up, half-down ‘do instant festive flair, by adding a chic ribbon tied into a bow. Mist OUAI’s Wave Spray into damp hair (or dry if you’re at your desk), and scrunch to active some soft waves. Separate the hair into a top and bottom section, and brush the top section back loosely – no need to be too neat here, texture is chic. Fasten securely and then add a beautiful ribbon (or a pre-tied one attached to a scrunchie for ease!), for instant French-girl chic.
The messy bun
A messy bun is the perfect partner to a glamorous party outfit – relaxed yet chic, and luckily for us, it’s super easy to style. Mist the hair with a texturizing spray, and backcomb lightly at the roots. Fasten the hair into a low ponytail, and then tease out some strands around the face for a more relaxed look. Twist the hair into a bun, then secure with Kirby grips. Spritz with hairspray and ruffle the bun lightly to create more of an undone look, and finish with a glitzy headband to up the glamour factor.
