Popular Hairstyles with a Twist

Hairdos with twists and twirls are easy to style, easy to adapt, and easy to maintain. Best of all, the twists and twirls provide opportunities to develop your personal hairstyle and go from casual to elegant in a few minutes. We hope you like the hairstyles in our gallery. Our styling tips help to be creative with twisted and twirled hair elements.

Popular Twirled Hairstyles

Even though you may have found the perfect hairstyle for yourself already, you may welcome learning about ways to invent subtle variations for special events. This usually involves using the tools of the styling trade like bobby pins, hair slides and scrunchies. Experienced hair stylists use their hands and creativity to braid or twirl. Twirling requires less skill than braiding, and the results can be just as appealing and impressive. You may like to twist the hair over your forehead and pin it back or twirl your side hair to create a semi-updo. Hair can be twirled into long rolls or piled into chignons of all kind. The style is yours to create. The twirled hairstyles of the stars and models in our gallery are meant to inspire you.

It’s time to try your hand on twirling your hair! In his video, Armin Morbach demonstrates how to style three chignon variations; one of them includes a twirled hair element.


Bob hairstyles
With soft waves are ideal for women who want to change from casual to elegant on the drop of a dime. Cameron Diaz for example may go surfing all day and attend a premiere in the evening. Her soft wavy bob quickly and easily adapts to both activities. The nonchalant and feminine bob hairstyle does not look overdone during everyday activities and not too casual for official or festive events. Michelle Dockery (see the photo above) shows that the bob is also suitable for gala events.

It is easy to create wavy hair for a bob using a curling iron. Work mousse or curling mousse through your hair and roll wide individual strands of hair over the rod of a curling iron. Allow the curling iron to warm the strand of hair for a few seconds and release the newly formed curl. Merely pull these curls into place if you prefer well-defined curls for your bob. Otherwise, use a wide-toothed comb or brush to create soft casual waves or the undone version of the bob.

Retro Hairstyles

Now this Hollywood glamour style is back again! Stars and models once again wear the giant curls. Find out below how you too can create the style

You probably know the style from old Hollywood movies with female stars wearing large glamour curls. Have a closer look! You may fall in love with the graceful feminine look. Actresses like Rita Hayworth and Veronica Lake with their glamorous hairstyles were the style icons of their time and their style still inspires women worldwide. Today’s stars like Julianne Hough, Dita Von Teese and others walk in their footsteps but put a new very feminine face on the old Hollywood glamour style. The TV series 'Mad Men' also played a big role in reviving the giant waves. The series is set in the New York of the 1950s and 1960s and the very attractive actresses in the series have done their part in drawing attention to the elegant feminine hairstyles of this period. Especially the blonde January Jones alias Betty Draper gave the style a big boost.

If your hair is long enough sweep it to the side and over one shoulder. This looks particularly glamorous.

The best make-up to complement the retro hairstyles involves bright red lipstick and black eyelashes, which are also borrowed from the Hollywood playbook of the Golden Era. Dependent on your style, you may like to use dark smokey eye liner or rosé eye shadow.

 

Quick & Easy Styling - Rush-Styling Your Hair

The rush is always on, whether time is running short early in the morning or between work and the evening date. Still, the hair needs to look great. We present to you our five favourite tips for a marvellous hair style without shampooing, elaborate use of the blow dryer or complicated styling

    Tip 1: Basically New and Fresh

    Does your hair still look great but there is a slight oil crisis in the making near the roots? Relax, shampooing is not the only solution. Instead, firmly work some alcohol-containing styling mousse into the hair near the scalp and then blow-dry the hair using a skeleton-type brush. Working short hair near the scalp with your fingers while it dries is also a viable solution. The alcohol in the blow-drying mousse will dry out your hair ever so slightly, which is ideal when combating fatty hair near the roots. Another solution involves gently massaging a little baby or body powder onto the scalp with both your hands. You need to brush your hair well afterward to remove any greyish powder residue. The powder has a blotting effect and leaves the hair like freshly washed, well almost like washed.

   
Tip 2: From Wild to Tame

    Your first look in the mirror early in the morning shows your hair standing up in all the wrong directions. Oh and where did all the cowlicks come from? This calls for a hair taming. Simply spray some styling tonic into your hair or use a leave-in spray conditioner for long dry hair. Then style your hair using a large round brush. In lieu of the styling tonic or spray conditioner you can also use regular tap water. The method works in any case. In order to keep your hair from getting really wet and to avoid a long blow-drying session, it is best to moisten your hair by pulling a wet comb through it from the roots to the tips. Hold the comb under running water between strokes.

    Tip 3: Hot Roller Tip

    The bounce has left your hair overnight and your hair keeps clinging to the scalp. Heated rollers will bring new life and volume back to your hair in almost no time at all. Just put the pre-heated rollers into the dry hair and leave them in while you brush your teeth or enjoy your morning Espresso. You can take the rollers out after ten minutes. Brush the cooled hair briefly and spray it with a hint of fastener if you wish. Done!

    Tip 4: A Genuine Revival

    It is quite possible to quickly revive a short haircut, which has been created using gel or a wax-containing gel. However, do not reach for more gel. This would make your hair as stiff as bristles. Rather than using more gel, simply use your wet fingers to bring the right style back to your short hair.

    Tip 5: Weight versus Volume

    If you have styled your hair using mousse or hair spray you should first thoroughly brush out the previously used products. Only then is your hair ready for new styling aids.

Building Volume into Your Hair - Here is how!

Almost one of two women (48 percent) would like their hair to have more volume. Are you one of them? Don’t worry, help is on the way. There is a solution even though your hair may be rather fine or limb. We are going to share with you our secret about giving hair a real boost using a hair dryer and rollers as well as the proper care and styling products

The end of flat heads is here! Special care series for fine and limb hair are going to help you build up a full head of hair.  Shampoo, rinses and lotions containing a collagen complex will give more substance to your hair near the scalp and immediately produce the appearance of more volume. Using silicon-free hair care formulas keeps your hair from going limb again.

For best results you should use an alcohol-free mousse before blow-drying your hair. This gives your hair more volume without drying it out. Simply towel your hair dry and then work a tennis ball-sized portion of mousse through it. You need to work the mousse only through the hair near your scalp if your hair is longer.

Blow-drying your hair against the grain creates volume

Your best allies in the quest for big hair are a good hair dryer and the proper brush. First dry your hair until it is only slightly damp using the medium setting of your hair dryer. A hair dryer with diffuser attachment works well for curly hair. Simply guide the hair dryer in small circular motions over the hair closest to your head. Using a round brush gives volume to longer straight hair.

First gather the top layer of your hair and hold it with a clip on top of your head. Then start pulling the bottom portions of your hair over a round brush while blowing some warm air against the strands. Give your hair style the final polish by leaving the brush in your hair for a while. Allow your hair to cool and then take the brush out of your hair without disturbing its shape. Use the same technique to style the top layer of your hair.
