The luxury trend which has made deep inroads in fashion and beauty has made its mark on hairstyles as well, especially because one can make locks more expensive and that too on an average budget.
When you think of luxury, high-end brands come immediately to mind. Though these may be out of reach for ordinary people, you can still look the part by simply enhancing your hairdo while sitting at home.
Here are some favorite hairstyle ideas that can upscale your look and give the old-money allure without having to delve deep in your pocket.
Sleek Bun
A classy middle-part low bun provides the quiet luxury frenzy to elevate your everyday attire in a minimalist way by using clip-in extensions to impart a snatched bun for a cleaner look.
Moreover, this hairdo is so versatile that it goes perfectly at a formal event or in elevating your everyday attire. It begins with a strong center part followed by deep-conditioning treatment with a hair mask to keep the flyways in check, give instant shine and provide deep nourishment and repair.
Mixie Cut
If you want to steal the Princess Diana look, go for the maxie cut as this hairstyle does not require much upkeep and can be easily styled by using a thickening mousse or a moisturizing spray to provide lasting hold and texture to the styled hair. It also prevents frizz and reduces the risk of flyways.
Today’s version is a bit more modern than the 90’s look as it is a bit shorter on the back and the shape is also more clean-cut and has minimal layers to provide added texture.
Smooth, shiny blowout
Just as actress Gwyneth Paltrow does blowouts regularly to keep her blonde hair straight, you can achieve the same results cheaply while sitting at home. The key is to dry your hair and then use a round brush to hold the hair dryer face down.
Next run a flat iron through the strands and apply a nourishing hair serum to give the healthy and polished finish. The serum provides the hair and scalp with intensive treatment and also helps combat hair loss, soothe or renew the skin. Don’t forget to apply a heat protectant, to form a barrier that minimizes hair damage, before blow drying your hair.
Braided Ponytail
If you are looking to embrace the quiet luxury trend without making expensive salon visits or use high-end tools, then the ponytail look will fit the bill. All you need are a few hair ties and lots and lots of hair spray. Choose one that works best for your look, offers versatility, lasting hold and soft texture, without causing any damage to the hair.
Begin by brushing the hair thoroughly and coating the crown with a styling gel that suits all hairstyles and gives the desired look. Use an anti breaking shampoo and a sulfate-free conditioner to reduce frizz and split ends. Secure the pony tail with an elastic band and create a simple three-strand plait before securing it with another hair band.
