How to style your hair like kristen stewart

Kristen Stewart's hairstyle

If you want Kristen Stewart's hair (aka Bella Swan hair)

If you have wavy hair, this style can be achieved by getting your long hair layered (but make sure you ask your stylist for LONG layers, or you'll end up with something totally wrong! - bring this photo just to make sure you get the right look).

TO style this cut yourself, if you have wavy hair or some wave, towel dry your hair then use a SCRUNCH product in your hair that will help hold or create the curl. there are a ton of these on hte market. The purple Aussie scrunch spray is pretty good (not the best) but it's cheap. You can blowdry your hair on low while scrunching your hair with your hand to create waves. If you have a diffuser for your blowdryer (basically waht this does is take away the wind, but give you the heat to dry your hair) that works even better. Crunch your hair with your hand as you blow dry. Once it gets more dryhairspray it just a bit while you scrunch to hold the waves.                                       

Now if you don't have wavy hair this look can be achieved with a blowdryer and a curling iron. Add a product to had body or volume, then to make your hair thicker if it's not thick, flip your hair over while you blowdry it. And blow dry it from back to front then do the right /left sides with your head upside down. THis will make it look thicker and a bit poufy which you can calm down later.

When dry, run your fingers through your hair, to even out the strands, then use a big or medium curling iron to make spiral curls. Depending on your hairtype, either brush these out or run your fingers through your hair so they are not ringlets. This will also determine how curly you want it, use a brush if you want less curly hair.

TO get the effect of height and some distance from your hair to the top and sides of your hair, put your blowdryer on low then hairspray your hair on top and sides while blowing it just a little bit. Style wiht your fingers.

You can experiment with all of these hairstyles so they look best on you. But mostly, the secret to all the TWILIGHT looks is product. WHile they all look so natural, there's a lot of curling and blowdrying going on behind the scenes.

Oh an if you're hair looks a little frizzy after this and not healthy, you can curl the ends with a curling iron and/or add some finishing cream to JUST THE ENDS of your hair. (not all over b/c sometimes that stuff can make your hair go flat.)

Hope this helps. I think another key to this hairstyle is the cut. Make sure your stylist sees a photo and gives you LONG LAYERS that AREN'T CHOPPY. Make sure you say that to him/her when you get your haircut. TO be really safe say SUBTLE LONG LAYERS. And hope they understand what "SUBTLE" means. AND bring in the photo just to be safe.

PS if your hair isn't thick, dying it auburn will give it a little more thickness because actually the damage dying your hair does, creates a good thickness courseness to your hair, which works nicely for these looks. Her color is an auburn color, but know, when you first get your hair dyed it will be a lot darker, then the color will fade to a lighter auburn. This photo looks as if her hair was a lot darker (say in the movie) and has faded with washing to this nice shade.

Good luck!

Keep Your Hair Healthy

For the best result in any hairstyle, keep in mind that you need a healthy hair. Make sure you have a proper hair care routine and that you use the proper hair styling products. Every hair type needs different hair care and styling products. Always choose the products that match your hair type (thin or thick, Caucasian, Asian, African- American, straight or curly) to avoid damaging it.

Also, when styling, make sure you don't overdo it with tones of products and treat your hair after each occasion. Use masks or any other hair treatments at each washing, heat protecting products before using curling iron or rollers and make sure your hair is completely dry before curling. Never style your hair while is still wet because that's the most damaging way for your hair follicle.

Get Highlights

Highlights help you get volume and shine into your hair. It is also a great way to update your hairstyle without any drastic changes and it adds a touch of glamor into your whole look. It is more than enough to get slightly visible highlights without any strong contrast. Some soft caramel or honey shaded highlights will make the perfect look without overdoing it.

For curly hair, you have to straighten first, than use hot rollers to get this texture. Then fix with some hair spray.

How to Curl Hair Like Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift, (with that beautiful head of long curly hair every gal envies)

Taylor Swift is just 21 years old, looks like a bohemian princess and has a voice to match . . . don’t you just hate her?

I didn’t  r e a l l y  mean that now, but some girls have all the luck. I mean like that naturally beautiful long curly blonde hair that looks just shy of perfect, and somehow effortless and wistful.

Back in the 70′s and 80′s, when spiral perms were the big thing, the long curly Taylor Swift hair is exactly what every long haired women wanted. The problem was that with long, spiral curly perms came frizz and sometimes uncontrollable volume. You’ve seen pictures . . . think Rosanna Rosanna Dana. And since we all want the Taylor Swift hair we haven’t got, salons were full of straight haired women paying their dues and trying to wrestle their hair into submission. If you have naturally straight hair you would be better to stay away from chemical treatments that try to take your hair to the opposite extreme.

If you have hair with some wave and body in it, you can get the Taylor Swift hair look. One easy fix is to invest in hair extensions. Hairuwear by Ken Pave’s and Jessica Simpson are hot right now. They are easy to put in and take out with just three clips, they look real and they are priced right. Price ranges from $45.00 for synthetic to $200.00 plus for real hair. If you want long soft cascading curls or long curly hair see how easy it is to do here.

If you have long wavy hair with body and are willing to do some hair styling, this method works great!

Use a volumizing shampoo and follow with a conditioner you like.

• Spray a root lifter on roots and use a volumizing mouse, styling spray or gel if you like.
• Blow-dry smoothing the cuticle
• Mist with a thermal active spray
• Starting at the nape, clip hair up dropping 1″ horizontal sections down at a time. Using a 1″ or 1 1/4″ barrel curling iron, wrap hair around barrel starting close to the scalp in a spiral motion leaving ends out to curl last. This will allow the hair to be curled evenly throughout its entire length.
• Gently drop without pulling out the curl.
• Mist curls lightly with finishing spray before dropping down next section to be curled.
• Drop down sections repeating above till done.

Your ends shouldn’t be frizzy if you make sure to get them cleanly covered with your curling iron. But a light smoothing serum used by rubbing it into your palms and coaxing the ends down with your fingers will also do the trick

How to perm your own hair

Perming your hair at home is not as easy as some people think. There is a lot involved in this than just applying a perm solution and you think you will have a great curl. You have to remember you are applying a chemical to your hair and have to think about what type of curl you want to achieve before doing this or you will end up with a head of frizz and no curl.
Also you have to think is your hair in good enough condition to do this. There is different types of perm solutions to perform different jobs and uses. There is a alkaline perm which I recommend for hair that is very resistant, stubborn, lack of elasticity, and resistant gray hairs. A elasticity test can be performed by taking a piece of hair from underneath, cut it off, and pull on it to see how strong it is. If it breaks easily that means it's very porous and lacks elasticity. Then there is a acid perm which I recommend for someone who has colored treated hair, damaged hair, frosted hair, hair that's in good condition, relaxed hair. This is a milder perm and not as strong as the alkaline one.Now you have to decide what type of curl you want. Do you want a tight curl, loose curl, body wave curl, spiral curl or a ringlet curl? There is many different techniques used in perming a persons hair. There is different ways of rolling and also different sizes rollers to determine the curl. So I suggest to discuss this with your hairdresser to see what method is for you. A hairstylist will give you many choices to choose from if they are experienced with doing perms. They will tell you there is a body perm, which is a soft curl and basically just putting a slight S wave in your hair. This is done to add volume to your hair. They will use a much larger roller like brown or orange or may even suggest using rollers they use for a set. A stack perm they may suggest if you don't have any layers in your hair and it's all one length. This is almost like a piggy back perm. You have to use different size rollers and alternate them, but your top isn't permed of course. Just the sides, length, and ends are. They could also suggest a root perm depending on how much volume your hair has and if you need that lift or not. A root perm is great for someone to add volume and lift to their root area only so your hair isn't flat. This will be great so when you style your hair it would hold without having to tease the root area. If they really know their stuff about perms they might suggest a pain curl perm. I loved doing these types of perms. They are really fun and create a wonderful curl. This is done by taking very small sections at a time and almost making them into a pin curl. Then applying the perm solution on top of them. What I love about this procedure is it gives you such natural looking waves almost like you were born with them. When I was in my salon I also liked doing weave perms, where I would only perm certain areas of the hair leaving some parts straight on purpose to create different textures to the clients hair. This is great for someone that just wants their sides and top permed. Some hairdressers don't know about some of these procedures, but there is a few differences between. You will get different curls from these techniques. So this is certainly a lot to consider before jumping to this and just curling away.
Next step is you need to make sure you have all the right equipment to do the perm. The products you need are rat tail comb, shampoo, shampoo cape, Vaseline, cotton, gloves, perm solution, timer, perm rods, towels, hair clip, end papers, water bottle, and processing cap. Next make sure your hair is free of all hair spray, gel etc. Shampoo and condition your hair preferably the night before. Do not use a real heavy conditioner or this can cause the perm not to take too well or slow down the process. Next comb your hair using a wide tooth comb and not a brush. Get all the tangles out. Try not to irritate your scalp too much by scratching your head or vigorously combing it. If you do it can cause scalp irritations when the perm is applied on and will burn. Now set yourself up with your hair wet, plastic cape around you with towels underneath you, and one on top of cape. Then if you know what size rollers you want to use start by taking your comb and sectioning the hair into four sections. I suggest starting with the crown area by taking your comb and take a thin section and pull straight up. Place a end paper to cover the hair making sure all the ends are in. Then roll straight down and secure the perm rod. Please make sure you don't pull too tight or it will result in Major hair breakage. When your hair is all set up with the rods and you get to the nape of the neck wrap the sides down from the top to just above the ears. Do this for both sides and then you are ready for the top section. Start from the crown area and pull up the first section. Pull it straight up and wrap with end paper. Roll it towards your forehead, Next step is to apply and prepare for the perm solution.
Protect your forehead, ears, and neck with either Vaseline or baby lotion. Place cotton to these areas. I suggest using double layers of cotton for better protection. Then making sure you have all your towels on and place some gloves on and mix the perm solution. Some perms have two parts to mix and some only one depending on which one you choose. Start at the bottom and apply the perm lotion to every rod making sure they are saturated enough. If you have thick hair or long hair it may take two bottles even if your hair is short and thick. After the lotion is on place a processing cap on top and secure it with a clip of some sort. I suggest doing a test curl after about seven minutes or so. If your hair is tinted or grabs quick this is a great way to test. Take a rod out and see if there is a slight bend or a curl more like a wave. Most people usually process for about 15 minutes or so on a average. Then you need to rinse the perm solution out with warm water for about ten minutes making sure it's all out. Towel blot it with paper towels till there is no more water on the towel. Now you need to apply the neutralizer to all the rods. This is applied the same way, but only left on the head for six minutes total. Rinse out with cool water and then take all the perm rods out and rinse the whole head for five minutes with cool water to close up the follicles. Always remember after a perm do not wash your hair with shampoo for two days and try not to use a brush on it. This will cause a lot of frizz and you will stretch out the perm.
