The simple ponytail is definitely back but with a less fussy approach to styling. Up-hair should not look contrived, even a sleek ponytail should look as though you have tied it up as naturally as possible. Practice twisting or coiling your hair using styling chopsticks or big jewelled pins allowing some pieces to tumble down. If you whip up a good lather during your first wash you probably do not need to repeat - if the bubbles disappear quickly then you do. If its 'big hair' you are after, set your hair using large heated rollers after working in some volumising mousse. Do this just before bedtime but do not disturb the curls at all until you wake up. Run fingers through the style the following morning and spray on my Shining Star Spectacular Glossing spray to finish. A high forehead or overly-long face will always benefit from a fringe. Long., side swept flicks are very now but if you want something less retro go for heavier, stronger shapes. Bold, vibrant colours are the thing at the moment. If you are brunette try Hot Chocolate or Caramel shades. If you are a redhead try rich russet colours, ivory or oatmeal if you are blonde. If you want touchy-feely silky soft hair know your products. Soft-hold mousse will give flexible bounce, serum for a silky shine and shine spray for a truly shimmering finish. To give soft movement use heated rollers or Velcro rollers and use a soft bristle brush to stroke the hair into shape. Brush lightly and tame flyaway ends with a touch or serum. For a curly-girlie full of volume look try using tongs or a hot brush such as my Big Hair Airstyler. Simply spritz with styling spray before winding, hold the style in place for no more than ten seconds, release and repeat three times. Allow to cool and arrange as you like. Simple! Rollers can create too definite a curl on short hair. Do not curl all over - concentrate on the crown or you will end up looking like Doris Day! With naturally curly or frizzy hair always use larger rollers, smoothing serum on before winding. Do not use hairspray on this type of hair as it can be too drying. To get hair as smooth as possible when blowdrying aim the heat directly at the parting, with the airflow downwards. Keep the hairdryer moving and once the roots are bone dry, dry the mid-length then ends. Try the Body-Booster Silkening Mousse from the Results range.
