When you want bombshell hair but you’re short on time, you need products that work for you, not the other way around. I have a simple 3-step hairstyle for you today that I achieved by using Suave Professionals® Luxe Style Infusion Volumizing Weightless Blow Dry Spray. I used it straight out of the shower on damp hair and it gave me the perfect “canvas” of blow-dried hair to work with.
Undercuts on women have become a huge trend in the past year or so. An undercut is when you see the side of someone’s head is shaved or taken down to a very short length, while the rest of the hair is parted over to the other side. One of the most alluring aspects of the undercut is that the side of the part that has more hair on it ends up looking very vintage chic and flat out sexy. The hair part mostly lays to one side with a good amount of volume and it’s very reminiscent of retro pin-up hairstyles. I decided to do a Style-It-Yourself in 3 steps today to give you a “faux undercut” look. You will get the same voluminous, sweeping hair part with one side of your part looking sleek and pulled back. It’s a great way to give yourself the same effect without committing to a razor.
GET THE LOOK IN 3 EASY STEPS:
1. Apply Suave Professionals® Luxe Style Infusion Volumizing Weightless Blow Dry Spray to damp, towel-dried hair before blow-drying. I have long hair so I used a generous amount and worked it in from the roots of my hair through the ends. While blow-drying, I love to turn my head upside down and from side-to-side to really lift my hair at the roots for extra volume. This product does an incredible job at giving your hair the extra bulk you need.
2. Give your hair a deep side part (either side works), and separate the smaller side into two sections by twisting them with your hands. Secure these twists with small hair ties. This gives the illusion of super slicked back, parted hair that mimics the effect of an undercut. You’ve now got your “faux undercut” and with this part of your hair out of the way, you’ve got a gorgeously thick, sweeping part of hair in the opposite direction.
3. Using a curling iron, curl 1 inch sections of hair away from your face. Once your curls cool, you can use your fingers or a brush to lightly undo the tight curls and make them looser. Your “faux undercut” hairstyle is finished, and it was all in 3 easy steps!
