There are days when your hair refuses to do as it is told, no matter the weather or your busy schedule. Instead of battling with the blow dryer, volumizing mousse, and curling iron, take a different approach. The smartest and fastest way to a sleek updo takes two tools: a straightening iron and barrette clip. Looking at the minimalist hairdos spotted backstage at the Whistles Spring 2015 show at London Fashion Week, we are reminded that a blunt cut and straight lengths can be seriously pleasing to the eye.
Hair guru, James Pecis, and his team crafted exquisite ponytails that shimmered down the catwalk under the spotlights. In humid conditions, a curl doesn’t hold and frizz can be hard to tame, but if you have naturally straight hair or go for a Brazilian blowoutregularly, then this style is an achievable one.
After blow-drying your hair straight, split it into one-inch sections and run a comb through, followed by a straightening iron. Create a precision center parting with a pintail hair comb, pull your ponytail together at the nape of your neck, and fasten with a metal barrette hair clip. Add this hairstyle to your beauty repertoire and see how smart and sophisticated you’ll feel. I guarantee you will get a compliment or two on your new chic hairdo.
