Simple Hairstyle Ideas with Elegant Finishes

Use these simple hairstyle ideas to get an elegant finish for your next special occasion look.

If you’re going to an occasion that requires a look with a touch of elegance, but you don’t want to spend hours styling an elaborate look, then these hairstyle ideas are for you!

Beautiful Bun

A beautiful bun hairstyle can be very easy to achieve for those with long hair (and even some mid-length locks) and will suit any occasion where you’d like your face to be the focus. To ensure your simple style has an elegant finish, keep your strands tamed of frizz and fly-aways and make sure the bun is neatly pinned into place. Style on day-old hair for best results and use gel to help mould your locks into place and to add some gloss.

Glamour-filled Ponytail

To take your ponytail from casual to chic, you’ll need fresh looking clean locks, plenty of backcombing through the roots, sleekly styled sides and an elastic-free look. Hide your hair elastic by wrapping a strand of hair from your ponytail around the band once you’ve pulled your hair into place and then pin it with a hair pin that matches your hair color as closely as possible for a seamless finish.

Soft and Simple Blow-wave

While poker-straight locks can look very elegant, a blow-wave that has a little body in it creates a very soft and stunning style. To keep your locks from looking too boring or casual, and to get that elegant finish, add a deep side hair part and sweep your locks (or bangs if you have them) across your forehead. This creates a chic finish with minimal effort on your part. Finish up your look with a nice dose of shine spray to help your straight strands stand out.

Short and Sassy Crop

Making a short crop elegant is very easy, especially if your haircut is in shape. The key is to play to the strengths of your cut and highlight the best features using the right hair styling products. Often the only styling required is to work a shaping product like gel or moulding cream through your short strands to create some hair texture, give your roots a lift and to achieve a more structured shape where the finish looks as if you’ve put some effort into your locks and not just rolled out of bed.

Hairdo Ideas: Everyday Updos

Get a great everyday updo with inspiration from these hairstyle ideas.

Wearing your hair up everyday is a great way to get some variety into your look while keeping your hair out of your face. If the only idea you can think of is to pull your locks back into a ponytail, however, then you're missing out of some very easy updos that are suitable for everyday wear and a cinch to style. Check out some great options below!

Top Knot

One of the best trends this year was the top knot. It's easy-to-style and only requires you taking your lengths and piling them on top of your head and securing them in a bun. The other great thing about this 'do is that styling can be as neat or as messy as you like. This option is perfect for a quick style on the run or for those who find more elaborate styling too fiddly and time consuming.

Loose Bun

Buns tend to look formal when styled sleek and smooth, so if you like the idea of a bun but don't want to look like you're on your way to a wedding, style your bun loosely with hair pins and ensure your roots have plenty of volume in them. Styling your hair so it's not slicked down to your head will make the finish much more casual and suitable for everyday wear to any type of event.

Pretty Plaits

Perfect for a date is an updo that involves plaits or braids. This idea only requires you to create one plait that is long enough to wrap from one side of your head to the other, or two that can be pinned together at the crown if your hair is medium length. The plait or braid is worn like a headband while the rest of your locks are secured into a bun at the nape of your neck or the back of your head. If you need this look to be a little more fancy then add some decorative hair accessories.

Side-Swept Fun

Most updos pull your hair into a style that hides all of your strands at the back of your head. If you want to be able to see your locks then a side-swept updo is the look for you! To keep it casual and suitable for everyday wear, make your updo a cute knot, as seen here, and pull some strands out around your face to make a pretty frame.

Hairstyling How To: Creating Curls with a Curling Wand

If you want gorgeous curls then our step-by-step curling wand guide will show you how to get them!
Curling wands are ideal for creating lovely loose waves and beautiful tight curls. To enjoy a fabulous curling wand hairstyle, follow these steps.

Curling Wand Styling Steps

To get the best results, start with dry hair that is a day old (i.e. washed the day before). This will help your curls to form and stay longer in your hair. If you have really frizzy hair or natural curls that may stop you from getting a nice curl with your wand, consider straightening your hair first so your strands are smooth and flat.

• 1 Pull your hair back like you’re going to put it into a half up half down hairstyle and pin the top sections out of the way.
•  2 Take the loose, lower sections of your hair and divide them into manageable sections. If you want tight curls, create at least 6 sections. For looser waves or larger curls, divide your hair into 3 or 4 sections.
• 3 Use clips to pin away all sections except for the first section that you want to work on.

• 4 With your first section ready, lightly spray your strands with a heat protection spray, add a touch of mousse or use a small amount of curl enhancing product. Whichever is your preference.
  
•  5 Hold the section out from your head and put the base (the thick end) of the wand as close to your roots as possible and then wind the section of hair around the wand until you reach the point (the thinner end) of the wand.
  
•  6 For tighter curls, wrap your hair tightly around the wand. For looser waves/curls, wrap your hair loosely and space it out along the length of the wand.
  
  
  Hair Tip: For a natural looking finish, take one section and wrap it around the curling wand towards your face. With the next section, wrap the strands away from your face. Continue wrapping your hair around the wand in alternate directions until all of your hair is curled. The different directions will create a curling look that isn’t too structured or defined, resulting in a finish that looks much more natural.
  

•  7 Hold your hair in the wand for up to 10 seconds. If you have fine hair or are only wrapping small sections of hair, you may only need to keep your hair in the wand for 5 or 6 seconds. Because curling wands get so hot, they don’t take long to form a curl. Remember to mind your fingers/hands and use gloves to protect your skin.
  
• 8 Release the end of your hair from the tips of your fingers and then gently pull the wand from your hair. Don’t unwrap the curl or you’ll damage the shape.
  
•  9 For extra staying power, coil the curl back to your head and then gently pin it in place and allow it to cool while you continue curling the rest of your sections. Pinning your curl back also keeps your curled sections safe and out of the way while you continue styling.
  
•  10 After you’ve curled your bottom section, move to the top sections of hair, leaving the areas around your face until last.

•  11 Once you’ve curled each section and your hair has cooled, gently remove the pinned away curls and shake your hair loose.
  
•  12 Check that each section is curled to your liking and then touch up any curls that need it.

And there you have it! A beautiful curly hairstyle with the help of your curling wand.

Styling Ideas: Deep Side Hair Part

We show you how to make the most of your hairstyle with a deep side hair part.

One way to ensure that your hairstyle ends with fantastic finish is to style it with flattering touches. A deep side hair part is the type of styling touch that suits pretty much everybody, and as you can see from the great examples below, will give you the ability to create a range of different looks!

A Deep Side Part and Side Styled Locks

A deep side part is so universally flattering because it ensures your hair falls across your face, adding softness and helping to minimize features such as a high forehead. When you team a deep side hair part with a side styled hairstyle, you get a look that is subtle, elegant and timeless. 

A Deep Side Part and a Half Updo

A half updo that uses a deep side hair part will create a look that is more chic than casual, so you can use this option at work, on a date or any function that needs a hairstyle that looks effortlessly stunning and stylish.

A Deep Side Part and an Updo

Updo's can be harsh on some face shapes, especially if all of the hair around your face is scrapped back. To keep it flattering, use a deep side part instead.

A Deep Side Part and Loose Lengths

For a simple style that looks great, just add a deep side part to your loose lengths and then style the rest of your hair any way you want. Curls, waves and poker straight hair textures look great with a deep side hair part, and so will you!

Beautiful Bun Hairstyle Tips

If you’ve been seeing a lot of buns lately and also want to achieve such a simple and stunning style, these hair tips are for you!

While it might seem simple enough, you are after all only pulling your locks on top of your head; a bun does require a few tips and tricks in order for you to create a successful look. Keep reading to find out what they are…

Bun Hairstyle Tips

•  The key to a great bun hairstyle is ensuring your ‘do will hold its shape. For that, you need to style with day old hair. If you have washed your hair the day you want to style a bun, however, you can cheat a little and use dry hair shampoo to add texture and grip to your locks.

•  Don’t pull your hair back too tight. It will tighten the skin around your face, and unless you want to look like you’ve just had a face-lift, it’s not a great look.

• Hair gel is the ideal bun forming hair styling product because it has plenty of hold and really helps to slick your hair back. Just don’t go overboard with it or you’ll end up looking like you’ve dipped your locks into a vat of oil.

•  Keep a spray bottle filled with water on hand to spritz over your locks when you’re pulling them into place. It will help keep all of your strands together and make them easier to mould. The water will then dry, leaving your strands with a natural finish.

• If you have fine hair, or need some extra oomph for your locks, add clip in hair extensions, braids, bun enhancers or tease your locks to inject the type of volume and thickness required to create a nice, full finish for your bun.

•  Using hair pins is a great way to keep your bun in place and won’t show any tell-tale hair accessory signs like a hair elastic will. To make your pin placement extra strong, crisscross two pins together like an “X”. Need even more grip? Spray each pin with a spritz of hairspray before sliding them into your strands.

•  If you want your bun to be the only part of your ‘do that looks messy, cover a small natural bristle hair brush or clean mascara wand in hairspray and then smooth through the locks around your ears, the nape of your neck and your forehead (if you don’t have bangs). This will put any stray strands back into place.

•  For a bun that stands out, or if you plan on wearing your bun for a special occasion, using decorative pins, flowers, chopsticks, headbands and other colorful hair accessories to liven up your ‘do and finish off your look is the only way to go!

Hairstyle Ideas: Modern '80s Inspired Looks

Modernize some great throwback looks with inspiration from these hairstyle ideas.
While there are some hairstyle trends we're happy to see the back of, there are also just as many that deserve- at least in part- a bit of a revival, if only for the nostalgia!

If you're a fan of big hair and the crimping from the '80s, but don't want to look dated, these hairstyle ideas will give you the feel of the classic looks while still keeping your finish modern.

Crimped Locks

Crimping was huge in the '80s, and the fact that you can still buy crimping irons today proves getting curls this groovy is still as popular as ever. The key to ensuring your crimped locks are more modern than dated, however, is absolutely eliminating any frizz and keeping your locks down and loose. The moment you sweep your crimped strands into a half updo or ponytail is the moment that you step back in time, so put down the scrunchie and keep it in this decade.

Multi-Color Volume

While multi-color locks aren't new, teaming them with a short, sassy, volume filled hairstyle can look very '80s. Make it modern by choosing vibrant hair colors to mix and match and get them expertly applied so they blend seamlessly into each other. Then, while at the salon, ensure your short and sassy haircut is clean, neat and newly trimmed. There's nothing more dating than a short cut that is overgrown and messy looking.

Curls

Perms were a hallmark of the '80s, and you can re-create the glorious feel of those fabulous curly looks by using a curling iron or hair rollers. To keep those curls modern, make sure they are well defined and are free from hair frizz. You can also add an extra touch of nostalgia by incorporating the curls into a hairstyle that packs some volume, as pictured.

Big Hair

Teasing and backcombing wasn't limited to the '80s, but it certainly was around. Big hair is still just as sought after today - as the number of volumizing products available prove! To achieve a modern big hair look, go easy on the teasing and only add volume in the key areas where it will enhance your style, not take it over the top.

Flirty, Fun Short Hair Ideas

Spice up your short locks with one of these great hair ideas.
With a short length being one of the quickest hair lengths to style, it gives you plenty of time to play around with some awesome new looks, so here's some inspiration!

Waves

Who says waves are for long hair lengths? Texture is always a great way to create a new look, especially if that hair texture goes against how you normally wear your hair. Large, loose waves like the waves shown here can be added with a large barrelled curling iron. Keep the waves soft and only slightly defined for a casual finish and feel.

Funky Finish

If you have a dynamic short cut, show it off by using hair styling products to highlight the best angles. This cut has a unique fringe and really benefits from product through the roots to lift and add volume to the back sections of the hair. A funky finish like this not only draws attention to your hair, but also your face, so have your makeup on point too. 

Short and Sleek

Sleek strands look fantastic in short hair that has a little length to it. If your locks are similar to the strands shown here, get out the hair straightener and some straightening balm and give your strands a sleek finish.

Bangin'

If your short haircut already involves bangs, or you're thinking of adding bangs, then styling them in a similar way to this eye-skimming fringe is a must. It's not just the glossy sleekness of the strands that makes this finish appealing, it's also the eye catching hair color. Using a temporary hair color mascara can get you this great look for the night, and it will also work just as well for side-swept bangs.

Retro Hairstyle Inspiration

Popular and timeless for a reason, these retro hairstyles will inspire you to try something new.
Old is the new new when it comes to hairstyles, and these classic retro-esq 'dos are the perfect inspiration for a fancy look.

Vampy Vixen

These waves are a beautiful take on a classic finger wave inspired hairdo and will leave you with a beautifully soft finish. Don't forget the hairspray to combat fly-aways and to keep your style in place. A vampy deep red lipstick color is optional, but will kick the retro feel of this lovely look up a notch.

Gorgeous Glamazon

Sometimes the simplest of styles is the best. A deep side hair part and some large hair rollers or a large curling iron will get you this old Hollywood look. Team it with a strapless dress and no necklace to allow your hair to garner all the attention.

Beehive Babe

It doesn't get more retro than this! The beehive is a staple hairstyle for those who love classic looks and isn't nearly as hard to achieve as you might think. The key to keeping the retro glam of this style is to ensure you sweep your front sections or bangs sideways across your forehead, and that your 'hive isn't full of hair frizz.

Platinum Princess

While the style of this mid-length wavy 'do is very retro-esq, it's the fabulous platinum blonde hair color that gives it the trademark retro feel. If your hair is already this shade of blonde, curl your locks so that your hair length sits just below your ears and enjoy a throwback look- retro sunnies optional.

Big, volume filled locks are just made for a party atmosphere and allow you to get all the attention focused on your hair. This great option teams teased roots with a side-swept front section and some beautiful soft curls through the lengths for a great hit of texture.

Updo

Unless your party is big on sophistication, you don't need an elaborate updo with delicate styling or an elegant finish to create an great look. Often, just pulling all of your strands up so they are out of your face is the best way to go- and a great option for dancing! This hairdo playfully pulls the locks to one side so the finish is very fun and flirty. Try this look with any hair texture.

Hair Color

If there's ever a time that bright colored hair is welcome, it's at a party! We suggest opting for spray in temporary hair color if bright pink hair isn't a look allowed at your workplace come Monday. Mix and match your shades as seen here, or try strips of clip in colored hair extensions for a splash of color between your strands if you can't color all of your hair.

Something Simple

For those who need a party look that isn't too time consuming and is easy to set and forget, go for something simple. Straight strands that are big on hair shine will suit any hair length and is easy to achieve with the right hair products and heated styling tools.
