The season of love is upon us and we couldn’t be more excited. Valentine or no valentine, any excuse to get dolled up and try out a new hairstyle is fine by us! Today, we’re talking 3 of our favorite Valentine’s looks for all hair lengths. Whether you have super short baby-fine hair, a cute bob or shoulder-length cut, or long locks with tons of volume, we’ve got a style that will suit your look (and most importantly, your cut). And we promise…you’ll absolutely LOVE them!
A Lovingly Textured Pixie
There’s nothing quite as effortless chic as a gently tousled pixie cut. Ideal for gals who don’t want to deal with a lot of styling, a slightly choppy pixie with piecey layers allows for a tousled, lived-in look that still feels cool and elegant. Better yet, it’s never going to be a hairstyle that takes attention away from anything you’ve got going on makeup or outfit-wise. A chic pixie with full glam and a stunning red dress is just about as beautiful a V-Day look we can think of.
How to Style It: Use a styling paste like Embellish Texturizing Definer to bring out your natural texture and create a subtle piecey look.
A Romantic Tousled Bun
Can’t go wrong with a classic! If you’ve got the length to do it, a low bun with a few hair pieces hanging down is a simple, tasteful way to keep it casual while still changing it up from your every day look. A tousled low bun gives a taste of playfulness without being over the top. Depending on your length and hair density, you may even be able to get away with just using bobby pins to tuck the hair rather than using a hair tie – how simple is that!
How to Style It: This will largely depend on the texture and length of your hair, but a surefire way to get that tousled look is to give your hair a bit of curl or volume before tucking it into a bun. We recommend using our Ion Hot Rollers or AirGlide Pro to get those loose waves in place. Set the style with Embellish Flex Spray so that you’re infusing hold while keeping the strands pliable for shaping. For something extra, add a little curl to the pieces you pull out to frame your face!
A Heart-Clad Half-Up Twist
At Calista, we love to keep it simple, but we also can’t help but feel like a holiday like Valentine’s Day calls for a little embellishment. Pull your hair into a half-up style (no matter how short! Maria always says that ladies with bobs often think this look isn’t for them, but that’s not true! A half-up look can work on many short cuts!) and add a little décor. Whether you put in a tasteful flower, a decorative clip, or a sparkly broach, we love the idea of giving your look a little something extra.
How to Style It: We’ve got a super simple solution for this one: the FlipClip. Our newest hair accessory is perfect for adding a little ornamentation to your style (and it’s easy as can be)! You can even match your clip to your outfit for a more special tie-in. Adorable!
