Hairstyle tips:the 10 good gestures for a successful hairstyle every time:

It is with the addition of lots of little things well done that we do great things. This is why you will find below a small list of gestures to adopt without further delay and which will considerably change the result of your hairstyles so that they are worthy of the greatest hairdressers. So get your pens ladies!

For a natural effect, curl your hair in opposite directions:

For a more natural look of the curls, it is important not to curl the hair in the same direction. Otherwise it would look too sophisticated. So alternate the strands by curling them once to the left and then once to the right. Then don't forget to run your hand through your hair to "break the curl" and give an even more natural effect.

Hold your iron the right way around:

How you hold your curling iron plays a big part in the final look you want to achieve. If you want a hairstyle with volume at the roots, it is important to hold your iron horizontally. The rounding of the iron will give a lifting effect at the root. On the contrary, if you want a wavy effect, hold your iron vertically instead. This will give a looser effect to the curl, ideal for this type of hairstyle.

Spray your bobby pins:

This is a particularly useful trick if you have little hair or it is fine or very straight. The pins that are put there often tend to slip. This is why it is advisable to spray your pins with hairspray or dry shampoo and then let them dry for a few minutes before inserting them into your hair. The texture of the product will help "grip" your pins in the hair.

Fix your sicstus (flat pins) the right way:

We often make the mistake of not paying attention to the direction of the sicstus when we put it down, or even worse, we think that the undulations of the sicstus are going up. Error ! Indeed the wavy part is used to keep the hair "imprisoned" in the center of the pin while the flat part is used to keep the hair in its place. Thus the hair will have better support and the result will be more aesthetic.

Wash your hair the day before a bun!

This is the ultimate advice of all self-respecting hair stylists. If you want to ensure that your bun stays in place, it is important to wash your hair the day before. Less clean, the hair will be a little less slippery and the pins will hold better in your hair.

Fix your bun always with sicstus (flat pins)

In order to guarantee a good maintenance of the bun, it is advisable to fix it with sicstus and not bobby pins. The latter, with the movements of the head, tend to extract more easily from the bun while the sicstus hold much better.

Always wear sicstus the same color as your hair!

This may seem like an unstoppable logic but it is still seen too often unfortunately. For a successful hairstyle, in addition to flawless support, aesthetics are just as important. And it also goes through a matching color of the pins. So get pins the same color as your hair and position them so that they are seen as little as possible.

Using dry shampoo to add lasting volume to your hairstyle:

Dry shampoo is the nr ally. 1 in terms of volume. To do this, just apply a little on your roots before combing your hair. This prevents the bun from falling down and allows the pins to hold better in your hair.

Lengthen your ponytail… by doing 2!

This is a tip worth considering. In order to give the illusion of a longer ponytail, just make 2 positioned one above the other. So your ponytail will look longer.

Control your little hair with… a toothbrush!

It is not necessary to have to lacquer all your hair to fix the few unruly hairs that you have here and there. To fix only the hair that needs to be, just spray a little hairspray on a toothbrush and come, like a small comb, to fix the hair in the direction of the hairstyle.
