7 Stylish Ways to Wear Your Hair This Season ...

1 The Soft up-do

This hair style is great for complementing a feminine outfit. It’s a bit of a more elegant take on the messy up-do. Twist back sections of your hair in different directions and secure them into place with bobby pins. To encourage natural movement, which is what this look is all about, apply a texturiser to damp hair before blow drying. Leave plenty of flyaways to create a relaxed, soft silhouette.

2 Slicked to the Side

This is possibly one of the most elegant looks this season. Simply part your hair to the side, and comb down over your ear. Gather hair in a low ponytail and then curl over your shoulder. Use a styling mousse to create a glossy finish. This look works best with longer hair, but can be adapted for shorter lengths as well.

3 The Faux Bob

If you’ve toyed with the idea of cutting all of your hair off, but are not ready to commit, then you should try the faux bob. If you are wondering how to wear your hair like this, simply tie the majority of your hair at the back and let the shorter layers frame your face. This should give the effect of a bob haircut. You can wear your hair sleek and sophisticated or tousled and messy, depending on the particular look you’re after. Ideally, this look works best with layered hair.

4 Wet Look

A popular look on recent runways was wet-look hair. It is a bit of a divisive style, with some thinking it looks ‘greasy’ while others think it is quite fashion-forward. To achieve this look, style your hair using gel or mousse. Slick your hair back and create waves by combing through with your fingers. You can comb all of your hair back or wear it parted to the side, depending on personal preference.

5 Thick, Intricate Braids

Bold braids and corn rows took centre stage at the Sass & Bide and Peter Pilotto shows during London Fashion Week. This sleek, tight hairstyle is great for balancing out feminine and flowing silhouettes. For tips on how to wear your hair this way the first thing you need to be able to do is braid, or at least know someone who does!

6 Up and Tucked

For a sculptural take on new season hair styles, you can’t go past this particular look. For visual aides, look at the hair styles at Fendi and Jil Sander during Milan Fashion Week. To achieve this look, add height to your hair by backcombing and then smoothing over with hairspray and a fine comb. Tuck the ends under and secure with bobby pins to complete the look. While the runway looks were very exaggerated, you can definitely tone this down for a polished every day affair.

7 Glossy Waves

This hair style is perfect for completing a glamorous 70s inspired outfit. If you want to know how to wear your hair this way, this look simply involves curling your hair and then smoothing it down. To achieve a more flattering and fuller curl, use a straightening iron with wider plates and twist hair away from the face. For flawless waves, and to minimise frizz, apply a curl holding spray beforehand.

When it comes to how to wear your hair this season, there are a range of different options. For fashion-forward hair, you can’t look past the latest runway looks. What are your best tips on how to wear your hair this season?
