Going Out? Glam Up Your Long Hair With One Of These Styles!

I love my long hair, but sometimes I feel like I get stuck in a rut and only wear it one way (down and straight), particularly when I go out. If you’re like me and desperately need a change, glam up your tresses with one of these chic hairstyles, perfect for a fancy dinner or night out on the town with your girls.

THE ROMANTIC PIN-BACK

1. Start by applying a thickening product, like Bumble and Bumble Prep, throughout your tresses.
2. Using a round brush blow-dry the ends of your hair under and create a side part down the middle of your scalp.
3. Apply a dime-size amount of finishing product, like the SILK Protein Treatment from Salon Grafix, to the ends of your hair, working your way up to your scalp. Be careful not to apply too much product though as your roots tend to be much oiler than your ends. A little should go a long way!
4. Next, grab a 2-inch section of hair from each side of your head (near your temples) and brush until smooth.
5. Loosely twirl the strands until they resemble ribbons.
6. Finally, pull back both sections of hair and secure them with your chicest clip near the center of your head.
