When it comes to hair trends there are only two words that matter this year: Messy and Embellished. Combine the two and you have a winning look.
From the runways to the red carpet, everyone is wearing their hair imperfect and adorned.
The Dolce Gabanna winter show sported florals and crowns adding a feminine and whimsical feel to undone hairstyles. Pulled back into easy buns or braids, embellishments elevate the hairstyles.

To get the look, start with dry hair. Mist a beach styler like Pureology’s Sea Kissed Texturizer all over and scrunch until product is dry for added volume. Pull hair back gently allowing for flyaway strands. Secure an elastic band in a low pony.
NOTE: Use a gentle touch so style doesn’t look too sleek or stark.
Braid the remaining hair and secure with another elastic band at the ends. Hold the tips of your hair and push elastic band towards your scalp (To get a visual of this effect, watch the tutorial link below) This will give your braid an imperfect effect. Wind braid into a loose bun and secure with a bobby pins.

Fringes are a front-runner in 2015’s haircut category. We’re seeing them worn on short, medium and long lengths. Whether worn wispy, full on or side-swept, bangs can flatter every face shape.

What hair trends will look best on you?
Wide face – A longish, side-swept fringe will add length to your face.
Oblong face – Try a full-on or blunt fringe to cut the length of your face.
Oval face – Since this is the ideal face shape, any style can flatter. Go bold and try a mini-bang. They are hotter than ever when worn with hair longer than shoulder-length. Think, Beyoncé meets Audrey Hepburn.
