on hairstyles

If you are an old reader of the blog and you have seen my outfit posts, you may noticed or not that I don’t so much stuff to my hair. I’m kind of low maintenance when it comes to hairstyles, mainly because after a couple of hours, like one, it stays how he wants.
I do use a hair straightener, I even bought a rotating drying brush, no luck. Remember the mess of a hair I had at that wedding a couple of weeks ago? I looked like I didn’t wash my hair in ages, ohh here comes  the hobo bridesmaid. That’s that, I’m not good with any type of brush; make up, styling , painting and so on.
I was browsing the ghd website the other day, talking about hair straighteners, and I discovered they have a new section hairstyle guide, fun right? They feature videos and step by step tutorials on how to achieve different hairstyles. My favorite is the glamorous waves one.

Here are the steps:

 Step 1 To section the hair, place your thumbs above your ears, draw a line around the back of your head until your thumbs meet. Gather the hair above your thumbs and clip it out of the way.
 Step 2 Split the lower section into 2. Turn your head to the side. Insert the ghd IV styler horizontally at the root. Hold the styler at both ends for greater control. Begin to create the glamourous wave using the ghd IV Styler by rotating the styler upwards 180° and pull down through the hair.Then rotate the styler in the opposite direction and pull down again another inch. Keep this rocking movement until you reach the hair that has been clipped away.
Step 3 Release the top section of the hair, and repeat the technique using the ghd IV Styler. Continue through the side section until you reach your desired parting.
Step 4 To finish the look, rake your fingers through the waves to smooth and define.

Waves for me consist in having my hair up in a bun all day, and then let it loose; after that it looks something like in the first picture!
