We’ve
been keeping a keen eye on hair trends in the celeb world and we’ve
noticed that Old Hollywood glamour hair styles have become increasingly
popular on the red carpet with stars like Lana Del Rey, Megan Fox, and
Kim Kardashian being huge fans of this trend! We absolutely LOVE this
look as it looks incredible worn short or long and it just oozes
sophistication, so it’s great to see so many celebs sporting this trend!
Old
Hollywood glamour hair styles need lots of volume for the full effect
so using your HeadKandy hair extensions with this classic style is
perfect for that extra oomph! Start with a deep side-parting, as this is
key for creating an Old Hollywood hair style, then fit your hair
extensions and style them in with your natural locks for better
blending.
You can
choose to wear your Old Hollywood glamour hair style as a down ‘do or as
an updo: both look equally gorgeous! Whichever you choose, you want to
add some sultry waves and movement before you style; we recommend using a
large barrelled tong or a conical wand for the waves and curls in this
style as you want them to be bold and brave like a true Hollywood star!!
Finger waves are perfect for creating this look so pop over to our
Great Gatsby Finger Wave hair tutorial to try this yourself. :)
If
you are choosing an updo as your Old Hollywood glamour hair style then
pull all your hair back into a bun or chignon and then secure your hair
and your hair extensions with a sparkly clip! For a more traditional Old
Hollywood look, keep your hair sleek and off your face, but if you want
to modernise the style a little then you could leave some sections of
hair loose to frame your face. Finish your updo with a little serum for
that Hollywood shine! We think Tigi After Party is just perfect!!
If
you are leaving your Old Hollywood hair style loose then pin your curls
after styling as this will help them stay in place for longer. Once
they have cooled, gently let your hair loose. Try not to brush through
the curls too much as you don’t want them to lose their bounce and
voluptuous shape! A side fringe looks
incredible with this down ‘do, but you have to get the styling right!
Style your fringe with your large barrelled tong so that it follows the
movement of the rest of your hair. Then you can either opt to wear your
fringe loose or slick it back a little so that it stays in place for a
true Old Hollywood hair style.
We
think the Old Hollywood look is the perfect hairstyle to complement any
evening gown; it's just SO classy! If you need a super glam hairstyle for a
special event then this could be just the style for you to stand out
from the crowd . Pop over to HeadKandy to get your full head of hair
extensions to ensure this style is super thick and bang-on-trend.
