Have you been watching those red carpet shows, been reading magazines, or watching the fall runway shows and begun to wonder how those celebrities get their hair the way they do? Well look no farther, you asked and we found, here are the top eight hairstyles for the 2008 fall season.
Loose braids—as seen on Lauren Conrad, Jessica Alba, Ashlee Simpson. Get the look by: - Blow-drying your hair.
- Wrap thick sections of hair around a 1.5-in. barrel curling iron for “loose waves” look.
- Create a couple of thin braids in front and then pin in back, using bobby pins.
- Finish by pulling down the curls to loosen.
- Set hair with light hairspray.
The “long” bob—as seen on Gwyneth Paltrow, Kristen Bell, and more. Get the look by: - Prep hair with a volume molding mousse
- Blow-dry hair using a round brush
- Iron hair with a flat iron
- Spritz hair with Wax Spray to hold.
Hippie Headbands—as seen on Ashlee Simpson, Miley Cyrus, Vanessa Hudgens, and more! Get the look by: - Find a headband that suits YOU.
- Wear the headband with pride, either on your forehead, in your hair, or whatever way makes YOU happy.
- The more modern way is to wear it closer to the hairline. If you have bangs, pull out a few strands to soften the look.
Loose waves—as seen on Lauren Conrad, Kate Hudson, etc. Get the look by: - Blow dry hair with round brush.
- Center part hair, then pull up the top portion and clip it.
- Curl hair with a 1.5-in. barrel iron in 2-in. sections, moving from back to front.
- Loosely separate curls with fingers.
- Mist lightly with hairspray.
Low Ponytail - Get the look by:; - Gather your hair and pull it all back, section out a piece of hair at the nape of the neck.
- After you pull your hair away from your face, brush the hair.
- Spray slicked hair into place with light hairspray to prevent flyaways.
- Fasten the ponytail with a clear hair band, then take the hair that’s sectioned out and wrap it around the ponytail, using a bobby pin to fasten.
Bardot Ponytail—the new “sexy” way to wear a high ponytail. Get the look by: - Blow dry hair.
- Comb back sections at the top of your head to build height.
- Smooth hair in the front with a fine-tooth comb.
- After the entire top is done, gather all the hair into a ponytail at the base of your neck.
- Make sure you put some anti-frizz through the tail of the ponytail.
Bangs, Bangs, Bangs! The look that never goes away is staying with a twist. Get the look by:
- Depending on your face structure, there are 3 different bang styles to choose from...
- Thin, bangs at an angle-parted off-center to balance out a sharp chin.
- Profound, side-swept bangs that create the allusion of an arc that lengthen your face.
- Layered bangs kept off your forehead to soften your appearance.
Shoulder-Baring Bun - Get the look by: - The trick to this fabulous style is to loop strands of hair in different directions to create a thick, knotty bum.
- Gather your hair into a low ponytail, and divide it into two sections. Wrap one section around clockwise, and bobby pin it in place (forming a small bun). Wrap the second section around the initial bun, twisting hair counterclockwise, and secure the same way. The more pieces that fall out, the better the look! Remember it is supposed to look like a “messy” bun!
