Allison Williams’ Straight Long Hairstyle

Allison Williams’ Posh Straight Long Hairstyle

A straight hairstyle is good, but a straight mane with a good sheen is uhmazing!..

A straight hairstyle is good, but a straight mane with a good sheen is uhmazing! To create Allison Williams’ hairstyle, you need to have these: anti-frizz with shine-boosting cream, wide paddle brush (preferably with boar bristles), and a blow dryer. Now, do these:

  1. Warm a quarter size of cream in-between the palm of your hands before gliding it all over your damp strands…
  2. Rough-dry your hair, directing the blow dryer downwards from the roots…
  3. Once hair is thoroughly dry, gather a section (2” wide) then place the brush below that and the blow dryer above it. Aim the blow dryer in a downward position to keep the cuticles flat and to eliminate frizz…
  4. Continue blow drying the rest of your hair…
  5. Create a deep side part then tuck the sides behind your ears.

If you’re looking for an eternally chic way to keep your locks away from your face (or just simply want to show off your face because it’s just too gorgeous to hide), look no further than this! Your best friend for Odette Annable’s super sleek ponytail is a good smoothening spray (we love Sexy Hair Straight Sexy Hair Smooth & Seal Aerated Anti-Frizz and Shine Spray). Use it right after a blowout. Slice hair evenly at the center before pulling them low at the nape and securing with elastic. Wrap an inch or two around the elastic to tidy up the look.

Her blond hair is pulled back neatly, keeping the top slightly lifted. Notice the small patch of greys on one side? It’s saying: “Look, I’m aging but I’m fab so deal with it.”

You have to admit, Lady Gaga looks extra pretty when she is at her simplest. Such was the case when she arrived at the 2014 Oscars with her hair slicked back into a low updo paired with a bouffant top.

How-to:

  1. Prep your hair with a heat-resistant, smoothening balm while it’s still damp
  2. Blow dry hair flat using the right kind of tool (large paddle boar bristle brush) from the roots until the tip while constantly moving so as not to make your strands crispy
  3. Rub a small amount of anti-frizz serum in between your palms before you glide it over your locks to smoothen it further
  4. Create a 4-inch section in the middle until the crown and tease. Smoothen the top then push it forward to create a pouf. Mist with hairspray
  5. Separate a thin section near the nape before you pull back the rest of your hair neatly into a low ponytail
  6. Cover the elastic with the thin section and pin the end under
  7. Brush the end of your ‘tail then slightly roll it inward (towards your nape) and secure with pins

Instead of blending in her cheek-length bangs with the rest of her mane, it is swept slightly back for a cool contrast. Doesn’t Mrs. Timberlake look gorgeous?

Oh, Angie! How we adore thee! She kept her elegance in top form by pairing a gorgeous Elie Saab gown with a muted hairstyle. A super sleek mane should be avoided when you’ve got a strong jaw line such as Angelina Jolie’s. It will emphasize the width of the lower half of your face further. Give your hair a good body during a blowout. Curl the ends lightly for a soft and sweet finish.
