Grad Hair 101


Keeping with this weeks prom theme, here are some amazing styles found my by Amanda Pressner of seventeen mag. Enjoy!

Roman Ponytail

How to Get the Look:
Step 1: Comb your hair back into a sleek ponytail at the crown of your head. Use a fine-tooth comb to help smooth any bumps.
Step 2: Dip your fingertips into Dagger & Arrow Butter Cream, then lightly run them over your hair — it will maximize shine and fight frizz all night long.
Step 3: Tie a metallic piece of silk cord around the base of your pony, leaving two long pieces on either side. Crisscross them down the length of your pony. When you get to the end, wrap them around tightly a few times, knot the cord, then snip the excess.
Tip:
Gently pull sections of your pony with your fingers for a more volumizing shape.

Sleek Twist

How to Get the Look:
Step 1: Blow-dry your hair straight, using Dagger & Arrow Butter cream or GELI to keep it smooth and add hole, then part it on the side.
Step 2: Split your hair into pigtails, and begin twisting each side, starting from your temples and working you way back.
Step 3: As you reach the nape of your neck, twist hair tighter until it coils against itself. Use bobby pins to secure the coils against the back of your head.
Step 4: Mist all over with shimmer spray.

Silky Curls

How to Get the Look:
Step 1: Apply a texturizing product to freshly washed hair, then blow-dry on a low speed with a diffuser attachment — it will help bring out even more texture.
Step 2: With a small dab of Dagger & Arrow GELI on your fingertips, sweep your hair to one side, leaving it loose and flowy. On the same side, separate a three-inch section from just above your ear and roll upward into a twist, and bobby-pin it.
Step 3: Using a boar bristle brush, gently brush out the rest of your hair to loosen the curls and make them look softer.

Crazy Crimps

How to Get the Look:
Step 1: Mist dry hair with a thickening spray. Crimp two-inch sections, clamping the crimper as close to the roots as possible. Hold in place for a few seconds, then move down the length of hair. Crimp the whole head except for the front.
Step 2: To fluff out your crimped strands, tease them with a brush: Hold the ends of a two-inch section straight up, then brush it toward the roots until each piece is majorly full.
Step 3: Brush back the front section of hair, and secure at the crown with an elastic. Spritz the front with Dagger & Arrow Spritz to smooth down flyaways and add shine.

Fancy Chignon

How to Get the Look:
Step 1: Braid a two-inch section of hair at your hairline toward the back of your head, and secure with an elastic.
Step 2: Gather the rest of your hair along with the braid into a ponytail, and secure with a rubber band. Tightly twist your hair into a smooth side bun. Fasten in place with a few bobby pins.
Step 3: Pin three sparkly clips along your braid, then smooth on Dagger & Arrow Butter Cream to add a glossy sheen.
Tip: Tame any frizz along your hairline by smoothing on a dab of Dagger & Arrow Deep Conditioner with your fingers.
