One Example of a Refined Hairstyle on Straight Hair
REFINED STYLING
For Medium to Longer Straight Hair, Wavy:
For Volume: use a blow dryer and blow-dry your hair in the direction you want it to go. Apply the product. Reuzel and STMNT are both great products for this look (ask me about them). Blow-dry your hair into the desired shape, and direction.
For the front, take the brush and twist your hair away from your face and towards the back of your head, and the direction you are wearing your hair. Make sure you rotate your brush with your wrist.
TEXTURED/MESSY LOOK
For Medium to Longer Straight Hair, Wavy:
For Volume: use a blow dryer and blow-dry the front of your hair back with tension. You’ll take your product, I recommend STMNT, they make a spray powder (pumps out powder by pushing nozzle down) or they make a wax powder that you sprinkle on your hair. Rub it through your hair, it helps create volume on your hair root. Then take a Matte, Shine, or Fiber pomade. Apply the pomade through the hair until its spread evenly. Ruffle your hands through your hair again to create a messy texture. Repeat the process until you achieve desired results.
