When the summer sun hits hard, there’s a ton of things for straight haired girls to do with their lovely locks. For the curly haired girl however, there’s only a basic bun that comes to mind. That’s why BeBEAUTIFUL summoned TIGI Hair Expert Rohit Solanki to show all you girls with curls the easiest and chic-est summer hair dos. Read on.
The Faux Bob
How to:
- Let your hair loose and pull it back (just as you would while making a pony tail) with the TIGI Moisturising Spray.
- Near the nape of your neck, divide your hair into different sections.
- Take the tip of the hair from each section, roll it inwards along your fingers and pin it down as if you were tucking your hair in.
- If your hair gets unmanageable, try the Spoil Me Spray that’ll help tame the frizz.
- Do this all along the sides and at the back of your hair till you have what appears to be a bob.
The Messy High Bun
How to:
- Comb all your hair back in a high ponytail and use the Masterpiece Shine Spray to settle flyaways.
- Secure the high ponytail tightly and have the end of the ponytail go around the base like a bun allowing the tips of the hair to fall on either side loosely.
- Secure it from the front and the back of your head using bobby pins.
- Let the tips of your hair fall near your front hairline (depending on how messy you want it to be).
- Hold your base hair in place (the one that goes into the ponytail) with the Magic Stick and add volume and shine to your curls using the Foxy Curls Hi-Def Spray.
The Mohawk
How to:
- Prep your hair with the Totally Baked Hair Meringue to give it a good hold.
- Next, part your hair into three ear-to-ear sections and tie each section into a pony tail that sits bang in the middle.
- Let the TIGI Bed Head Stick work its magic by patting down the hair that goes into the pony tail.
- Hold the pony tail up straight and start back combing it to create volume.
(Back combing: Combing your hair from the tips to the roots, in the other direction, usually done to add volume.) - Once you’ve backcombed the pony tail, shape it and allow it to sit on the top of each section just like a Mohawk would.
- To add some texture and hold, be generous with the Hard Head spray.
The Quiff
How to:
- Part your hair into three sections.
- Concentrating on the section in the middle, comb your hair straight up and pin it a few inches at the back to make a voluminous quiff.
- Add some thickness and volume to the quiff using TIGI’s Superstar Queen for a Day Spray.
- Once you’ve secured it in place with bobby pins, run your fingers through the sides of your hair to get rid of tangles.
- From the sides of your hair, twist your curls neatly in place with the Foxy Curls Mousse.
- Finish off by applying the Bed Head Stick on the hair near the base of the quiff to make it appear even more pronounced from the sides.
The Curly Cascade
How to:
- Get the tangles out of your hair with TIGI Glaze Haze and let your hair loose.
Start twisting a few strands of hair all over the sides and the back. - As you twist, apply the TIGI Bed Head Stick to add some shine and prominence to your curls.
- Once you’ve done enough strands to cover your head sufficiently, hold the curls back and pin them lightly.
- Leave a few strands from the sides loose and allow them to cascade down.
