  The Modern Farrah Fawcett 
     
    We are seeing a lot of soft, textured, romantic curls on long and mid-length hair in the media right now. This look is inspired by the famous Farrah Fawcett style which has been interpreted to complement today’s trendy fashions. 
       
    HOW TO ACHIEVE THIS LOOK:
    1.
Part your hair on the diagonal, on either side, into 3 sections.
    2.

Start with the first section by curling the hair away from the face with the Babyliss Pro Professional Ceramic Curling Iron with Pointy Barrel ($89.95). This curling iron gives the soft, flowing curls that have a different diameter throughout (traditional curling irons tend to make curls more barrel-shaped and even).
    3.
Move to the second parting and again curl the hair away from the face.
      4.
Repeat with the third parting OR you could choose not to curl this section at all for a more casual look. If you would like a more formal style, curl this part under or towards your face.
       
     
     
  Note: Do not hold the curl in the iron for more than 10 seconds. If your desired result is more textured vs. curled look, hold for less than 10 seconds.
   
  Another very popular style we are seeing being worn by young celebrities is mid-length or long hair that is down and framing the face with soft waves and curls. It can be worn tousled and bit messy for a casual day look or, for a more formal presentation, with defined curls.
   
  HOW TO ACHIEVE THIS LOOK:
  1.   Spray hair with a light to medium hold spray such as Aveda's Air Control ($34). 
  2.
  Starting from each ear, part your hair in diagonal sections working back to the nape. You should have three sections on each side.
  3.   Curl your hair away from the face.
       





 

Braids 
    One style highly favored by young celebrities right now is mid-length to long hair that is slightly textured with individual parts braided for added interest. A spiral curling iron is recommended as it is much easier to use than a conventional curling iron.
     
    HOW TO ACHIEVE THIS LOOK:
    1. Part your hair in diagonal sections.
    2. Using the curling iron, wrap hair around the barrel and roll away from the face. Hold for 5 seconds, release, and move to the next section. Bring the back sections to either side to make curling easier.
    3. Spray the hair with Bumble and bumble spray de mode ($32.75) for flexible hold. To give hair a softer texture and separate the curls, run your fingers through your hair.
    4. Part the hair, either in the middle or to one side.
  5.

Separate a 2-inch wide section from the part to your ear. Do this on both sides. Make a braid starting from the part and stop just before the ear. Secure with small elastic. Take a few strands and wrap around the elastic and secure in place with a pin.
  6. Spray the braid sections with more spray and pull a few strands along each braid to soften the look.
 





  Boho Chic
    Single plaits are another version of the braid trend.
   
    How to achieve this look:
    1. Spray your dry hair with Bumble and bumble surf spray ($29.50).
    2. Part your hair to the far side (you are creating a deep side part).
    3. Brush the hair with your fingers (you want to keep the texture you created by using the Surf Spray).
    4.
Pull all of your hair to the opposite side of your parting and, starting at the nape of the neck, make a loose braid. Use a small, invisible elastic to secure the braid.
    5. To create texture, run your fingers up the braid to loosen up the finer hairs. 
   
   
   





  Accessorize
    Hair accessories are perfect finishes for any look.
   
    How to achieve this look:
    1. To dampen the hair slightly, spray dry hair with Bumble and bumble tonic($24) and then layer over with Bumble and bumble does it all styling spray ($32.25).
    2. Section hair in six sections and braid.
    3. Leave the hair to dry, about 30minutes.
    4. Undo the braids and loosen the hair by running your finger through it only a few times.
    5. Take your hair accessory and pin to one side.
