STEP-BY-STEPS
Step one
Prepare the hair using the ghd straight and smooth spray to create a straighter and smoother base whilst protecting from heat damage.
Step two
Starting at the nape, blow dry the hair using ghd air® hairdryer and ghd ceramic vented radial brush size 3. Work in 1-inch horizontal sections directing the air flow away from the root towards the ends of the hair.
TIP: Keep the ends of the hair wrapped around the brush for a few seconds and use the cool shot button to set the hair into the shape of the brush, to achieve a soft bevelled finish.
Step three
Using the ghd platinum+ styler, create a high shine finish and bevel the ends by rotating the styler 90⁰ downwards towards the head.
Step four
Place the accessories intricately into your desired areas to finish the look and add some sparkle.
TIP: Keep the accessories to the side of the head and gathered around eye level
Don’t go for perfection with this look - a little mismatching style and a collection of different pins will add to the drama and glamour of this look. Keep all the clips on one side of your head and don’t worry about spreading out evenly, to create a much more edgy look.
Adorn your locks with glittering, colourful pins or make a statement with a gold feature clip – whichever style you choose, hair accessories can enhance your look. Discover how to include these stunning extras into your straight hairstyle with the help of this ghd guide.
