Look 2: The Undone Bob

 


Model Karlie Kloss proves that cute can be sexy too with her playful, layered bob. The key to this style is mastering the "undone" style.

Best on: Most face shapes.
Best hair texture: Medium.
Favorite product: Pureology Curl Complete Uplifting Curl and Colour Stylist Cuticle Polisher shine serum.
How to style: Spray Pureology Curl Complete Uplifting Curl on damp hair and scrunch in. Apply a dollop of Colour Stylist Cuticle Polisher shine serum, evenly distributing throughout. Blow-dry on a medium setting and scrunch a natural texture into the hair. If hair looks too undone and messy, use a 1-inch barrel iron on every other section of the hair. Point the tip of your iron towards the floor and wind hair in a spiral fashion away from the face (tip: just the ends is fine when curling hair at this length). Scrunch ironed curls and natural texture together to get a more polished yet not-too-perfect wave.

Best hair texture: Fine to thick with a slight wave.
Favorite product: Pureology’s Colour Stylist Nourishing Nectar sculpting gel and Colour Stylist Piecing Sculpt high-holding sculpting fiber paste.

Look 4: Classic Long Layers

 


The always stunning Blake Lively wears her golden locks in classic long layers. Be sure to add dimension to hair color, whether blonde or brunette, to make this style look its best.

Best on: Most face shapes.
Best hair texture: Medium to thick hair.
Favorite product: Pureology Colour Stylist Cuticle Polisher shine serum.
How to Style: Apply a generous dollop of Colour Stylist Cuticle Polisher shine serum from mid-shaft to ends. Flip head over and blow-dry while scrunching until dry. Using a 1 1/2-inch barrel curling iron, grab large pieces (about 2-3 inches in diameter) and wrap around the iron in a spiral fashion. Change direction on each section and change the height at which you start the curl. For example, only curl the last 6 inches on some sections, the last 3 inches on others, and some all the way from the root. Rotate all options to create a natural-looking texture. Scrunch all sections together once done and, if necessary, flip head back over and add heat from the dryer to loosen curls. For added shine, add a touch more of Colour Stylist Cuticle Polisher.
