How I Style Short Hair - Long Bob Haircut Voluminous Straight And Wavy

Hey guys welcome back to my Channel today, I'm gon na be showing you one of my most asked questions ever since I've had my hair cut is how do I style it, and I get these questions while I have my hair straight and also when a habbit Wavy as well in today's video, I'm gon na show you how I style it both ways. It'S really not that hard, but it does involve quite a lot product and a hair straightener. So this is my freshly washed hair. As you can see, it's got quite a lot of volume already, and that is thanks to you a few products so to get to this point where my hair is nice and clean and quite full Luminess, already I'm going to show you what my hair it's bit Quickly, but I'm gon na show you what I use to wash my hair and how I get to this point. So basically, I start off by washing my hair with philip kingsley body building shampoo, and this just gives my hair some volume and makes it really nice and clean. And then I go in with the bumble and bumble serve conditioner which looks like this and again conditioner. Everybody needs it after I've washed, my hair, I going with bumble and bumble invisible oil on the ends of my hair. Just to you know, make it a little bit more soft, and so it's not as dry. So after a few use the oil I go in with the bumble and bumble great body blow dry cream, which is a thickening hair, blow drying cream. So what I do is take like a just a bit bigger than a pea-sized amount, and I just massage it in my hands and then I just spread it evenly all over the roost. I do not put it on the ends just on the roots in there. Last but not least before I, you know blow-dry my hair, I use the Aveda thicken it tonic. I'Ve been using this one for years now, and it is honestly one of the best thickening experts that I have tried and it doesn't smell too great. Well, it smells very like heavily yeah, but it is such a good thickening spray in that I brush my hair through in an hour blow-dry my hair upside down. So, instead of just blow-drying like that, I flipped my head over and I find that it actually blow dries a lot quicker and also when I kind of like threatened my hair back up. The volume is actually insane. So now I'm actually going to talk you through the hair styling process and show you exactly why I use. First of all, I always use my trusty tangle teezer and I always always brush it through my hair before any styling, because I don't want any knocks and I'm gon na start with my strict hair style after a blow drying. My hair doesn't look that great. So I'm gon na go ahead and straighten it, but I do do certain things a certain way and I'll show you, but first of all, I'm going to use Bumble and Bumble: x', invisible oil, heat protective primer to protect my hair because it's quite dry. So I just throw that quite generously lifting up my hair so that it gets too old areas and it smells amazing. It smells like that freshly washed blow-dried hair when you come out of this hair salon, but I do prefer my partings that be quite centered but not fan on in the center. Sometimes I have it more toward this side and today I'm just gon na have it centered but kind of slightly off-center. So it's not like exactly Center. I have my hair straighteners. These are by ghb. I'Ve been using this set for years now, four or five years. Maybe I just haven't had a new parent and these have been serving me really well, so I haven't had a problem with them. First thing I do is split my hair down the middle at the back, and then I do it in four sections. So but on section top section and then I say my liver side and this one thing that I do differently than what I used to do. Is she fingers and then through the hair, and I managed to return the middle and ends. I do not straight under boots because when you straighten the roots, that's when I find that the volume of the hair just like goes flats because you're literally clumping, it's the hell out of your hair, and you don't need to do that. Like just leave that, for you might have lose, it naturally has some volume just leave it there. So what I do is just from the middle to the ends, and I don't really use a comb or you know, be too precise. No effect, I literally just want to straighten the ends really to make it look more straight and uniform, and also for the malignus of the haircut to show up a lot better, because when hairs nice and straight, it looks so much more blunt than say like that. That you can see that was really quick and it really took me like 10 seconds and then that's what I do on the top layer as well. So not a lot of clumping, because I don't like to rush through it in my hair, I just washed it and it in the air in in the earliest. I need it, which is the middle and the ends, so we are due to save. On the other side, and then I shall get back to you so once my hair is nice and straight, you can leave it like this if you want to, but I find that my hair becomes quite flat here and because it is quite a blunt cut, I Feel like I just need a little bit of volume to balance it out. Take a brush like this. Is it that common brushed us, you know being chewed up by my dog uh-huh, but it's still usable. So what I normally do is take this top layer and flip it over solve it. If I keep looking in a few finer, I'm actually doing this without a mirror. So I'm using the few finder as my mirror and what I do is take thin, leaves like this and tease it. You need to back it because that's how we're gon na get a little bit for you and a little bit of this in there. So once the hair is back, come to God, but I'm going to tick this laughing. It'S a Charles Wellington, volume and bounce roots. Lift that come in powder if it is a little bit of a shake and then I'm gon na go ahead and just tap some of that into my roots and then give it a good massage. I'M not sure if you can see already, but there's already so much more for you and it really makes your hair like grippy, and it really adds texture to the hair and you should be able to see instantly the difference in the for you. And it just looks a little bit more textured and a bit more styled on this side. So this is what my hair looks like now, with the root powdering and then the last thing I'm going to do is put some texturising spray into the mid to the ends of my hair and I'm using again another Charles working to improve it. This is a texturizing spray, so I have to do, is shake it up and then literally just spray. It into the hand. It'S all just skip it, a little bit of grit and a little bit of fan texture. So it's not as sleek and flat. You know the final thing I do is take a comb like this in then just brush it through the top. They are not being tire hair just to topically a twist and move it back out a little bit, but you know it's still got that for you and it still got that grit in them. So now, let's move on to the wavy hair. I section it exactly. The same way that I did at the beginning of styling this hair - and that is in four sections. I just took quite big sections like this, and then I just tell them away from my face and it doesn't matter. If we do it, I love it. You can me because what we're gon na do is we're gon na brush it out late, a stage at the end, so you just wan na whack on and those curls, and then you want to make sure that they're smooth there's no like kinky bits. You want to make sure that all the cows are smooth and flowing like, so so what I basically do is clamp it at the root. In then twist us I'm going down the hair, and that normally gives me a really nice smooth curl like so. I'Ve got nice loose curls here. This is my hat slightly curl, as you can see, there's a lot of volume, so I don't need to put in any root powder or any extra thickening products into the roots. I think it's got enough volume, I think, and then what I like to do is because it is quite like Hemmingway tree. I just take my hands and I will fill it all out like you really want to get in there and just like will fill it up, because what I'm going for is a textured wavy. Look, not a textured carême look! So that's what I'm doing just in them. What I do is, let me just flip my head upside down, and this is where I in a flip it back up and then normally I don't have the center part in if my hair is gon na be wavy. So what I do is I take out my parting. The best way to get rid of a parting is to push your head to the left in men to the right and then keep doing that, and then that kind of just confuses to hair. And then you don't have that parting, where your help will always fall into that party. So, just to my right, it will fill in it, keep giving it texture and then oh my flowers and then to the left and then again, if it texture - and this is where I explain some texturising spray into the ends - not the roots, the roots doesn't need It just into so, if you have to candy for your liking, you can just always push it out a little bit and that will help the curls to soften and for this hairstyle actually like to do a zigzag pattern. So taking the pointy end of my brush here, I just took it up the temple in and do a six up, lift it up. And then you have your zigzag pattern and I find that helps. Make the hairstyle look a lot more flattering, because you don't have that just one line there and yeah. So this is my kind of like big wave, three yeah and if you want to dress up with an accessory, you always can do. I always put it on the side where I have less Hara, so yeah it's up to you, so I hope you enjoyed this video. I hope it was helpful to some of you, even if you have shorter or longer her.
