Downsmooth Hairstyles

The overall beauty of a downsmooth style is its simplicity . This style is achieved when straight hair is left down (not pulled up) and styled in various ways.

Method

This style is quite difficult to achieve so consult a professional. Products that increase hold need to be used on straight hair. But if your hair is wavy or curly, it'll need to be smoothed-out first then straightened with a hot ceramic iron. The shape should depend on the dress/gown worn and the hair accessories (eg. tiaras) that will be used.

Benefits

Downsmooth styles look soft, free falling and casual- yet they have a great elegance about them too. When created with straight hair, downsmooth styles are quite durable.

Beware

If you've got a downsmooth style and it's windy, your hair can become messy and get in the way; or in rain or fog, curly and wavy hair types could frizz.

Tips

Pull the front, top or side areas away from the face and then pin into place. And remember: the best way to find something that suits you is to use TheHairStyler.com's virtual hairstyler.
