This sleek 'do has minimal layering around the face to show off the hair's natural texture and shine. A small amount of finishing products is all that is needed to complete this style.

Ellie Goulding looks sleek and sophisticated in this simple straight ‘do that falls just past her shoulders. Ellie has an oval face shape with a low forehead and straight hairline, making her best suited to simple, center-parted ‘dos. Her hair’s straight natural texture is highlighted here with this blunt cut, which has soft layering in the front to give it some shape. The rest of the hair is one length, giving Ellie’s tresses a thick, healthy appearance.

As for her color, Ellie is a natural dark blonde but prefers to wear it lighter. Here she is sporting a wheat blonde tone that looks great with her tanned complexion and brown eyes. Instead of going for a highlighted look, Ellie has chosen one monochromatic color which makes her dark eyes pop. A toner may be required to manage excess brassiness in her hair, and regular root touch-ups are also required to keep this color looking freash.

Ellie Goulding is an English singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.
