Long sleek locks

2/11

Take your cue from Bella Hadid and ask for an ultra-sleek, straight blowout. Though seemingly simple, it still makes a great statement as it flaunts healthy hair perfectly. To repel humidity, make sure you have some hairspray and shine spray at home so you can just give your tresses a quick mist before heading out the door to keep the style locked in all night long.

Voluminous blowout

3/11

If you are all about that fuss-free life but still prefer something with more volume, ask for a voluminous blowout like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s. Suitable for all hair lengths, it instantly gives the illusion of thicker, fuller hair. For those with super fine hair, your stylist might have to tease the roots slightly to get that root lift.

Wavy bob

4/11

There’s probably no style that you can’t achieve if you have a long bob like Chrissy Teigen. For those who like a little extra texture, ask your stylist for curls that start somewhere around where your ears are. Easy to maintain, you can easily refresh the style by scrunching the curls to revive them any time throughout the night.

Take a bow

6/11

Simple and elegant, another way to embellish your look is with an understated black bow. And since this is such a pared-down approach, opt for a ribbon in a luxe texture like lace, velvet or tulle.

A touch of Japan

Reference the way geishas and samurais used to keep their hair tidy and ask your stylist to create a simple yet striking graphic look using Japanese paper string. We just love how the white string stands out on black Asian hair!
