August 22, 2022

THE SLEEK ONE.

 

If you’re styling a bob super-smooth and straight, the goal is to get it sleek. Take note of the glass hair trend and replicate it with the right mix of gloss-boosting hair stylers. For this look, we recommend starting with damp/just-shampooed hair, applying Kevin.Murphy ever.smooth & Kevin.Murphy Young.Again treatment oil through the mid-lengths and ends, with a misting of heat protection (we recommened Sebastian Trilliant Spray). Reach for a paddle brush or round brush, place it underneath your hair, then grab your hairdryer and position it so the nozzle is pointing down the surface of strands. Blow-dry while using your brush to tame your hair into a smooth and sleek style, then when the hair is 100% dry, apply another layer of heat protection. Your next step is to use a straightening iron to achieve a slick finish.

GET WAVY.

For a similar style, prep damp, just-shampooed hair with the Kevin.Murphy Beach Texturiser, then blow-dry smooth by pointing the nozzle of your hairdryer down the hair shaft. Once hair is dry, add a little extra heat protection, then wrap two-inch wide sections of hair around the curling-ion, but leaving 1-2cm of the ends smooth, Hold for 30 seconds. Continue around the whole head until youve done all sections, once the hair has cooled down, use a wide tooth comb and gently comb your hair to loosen and create that amazing wavy look. Complete the look with Kevin.Murphy Shimmer Shine for a dose of radiance.

That’s one of many reasons we love this crisp copper Opens in a new tab melt, which tumbles into the gentlest, glossiest curves. For a similar style, prep damp, just-shampooed hair with the EIMI Velvet Amplifier Opens in a new tab, then blow-dry smooth by pointing the nozzle of your hairdryer down the hair shaft. Once hair is dry, add a little extra heat protection, then wrap two-inch wide sections of hair around the Pro Curl Colour Curling Iron. Hold for 30 seconds. Continue around the whole head until you’ve got a mane of tight curls, then use a paddle brush to gently loosen. Complete the look with EIMI Glam Mist Opens in a new tab for a dose of radiance.

The LOB.

 

A simplistic but also very elegant straight lob shows off its choppy layers. With a creative zigzag parting and a touch of carelessness, as you can see in this picture this lob hairstyle looks so fresh. Firstly - Blowdry with the nozzel facing downwards this will help you get the smooth look & help tame flyways, using a round brush - this will help you create that perfect turnt in look. If your not great with a round brush thats fine once the hair is 100% dry you can then go in with your irons gently curve towards the neck to create facial framing. P.S. Don’t forget about the heat protectant before applying a flat iron. Here at M-A we recommend NIOXIN thermal protection.
