Style #12: Get the Wet Look

The wet look is a fun yet sexy hairstyle to try out especially with short hair.

First, begin with damp hair because if you start to apply your products on dripping wet hair the style will not last for long. Then part your hair into your desired style, whether this is a middle part or side part.

Next, use a product that should help you maintain the look such as a curl cream, apply it in your hair starting from the roots till the end of your hair. Apply a generous amount as the more product you use the wetter your hair will look.

Then use some hair clips that will keep the roots of your hair flat so that you can maintain the flatness that comes with wet hair. Once this is done, use a volume and matte hairspray to add volume and texture to the rest of your hair.

Be sure to apply it evenly throughout your hair by lifting it in sections and spraying your hair from the roots to the ends. After this use a regular hairspray applying it in the same areas as before for some extra hold that won’t compromise the wet look.

Finally, leave the clips in your hair for 10-15 more minutes before removing them from your hair. Vóila, you should have a chic wet look!

Style #13: Half Up, Half Down

As you are most likely unable to style your hair by putting it in a bun, the perfect alternative is to take the top half of your hair and tie it up, either loose with a small pony or in a bun.

Begin on freshly washed and blown-out hair. Then use a cream to add moisture to your hair before separating the top half and the bottom half of the hair.

Gather the top half and tie it with a ribbon to achieve the look.
