The Look: Wispy Bob
Ideal for: Straight or wavy hair
At the salon: Ask for a long bob with choppy layers, a side part, and long, sideswept bangs.
At-home styling: Flip damp hair upside down and blow-dry. When hair is dry, use a texturizing pomade or wax to make the ends look piecey.
The Look: Uncoventional Updo
Ideal for: All hair types
At the salon: Ask for a tousled bob on layered hair with wispy bangs.
At-home styling: Take random pieces of hair and secure with bobby pins to the crown of the head. Pull out pieces of bangs and side layers to frame the face, and smooth them with a flat iron or blow-dryer to finish.
The Look: Long on Layers
Ideal for: Straight or wavy hair
At the salon: Ask for long layers with face-framing angles.
At-home styling: Work mousse into damp hair to add volume and texture. Give hair a low side part. Blow-dry hair with a round or flat brush, and tousle lightly with fingers when dry
The Look: Curl Girl
Ideal for: Curly or wavy hair
At the salon: Ask for layered, midlength cut with long, angled bangs.
At-home styling: Apply frizz-control styling gel or cream to damp hair. Twist 1-inch sections around fingers and dry with blow-dryer with diffuser attachment. Break up curls and separate them; apply finishing serum for finish and shine.
The Look: Contemporary
Ideal for: Straight or wavy hair
At the salon: Ask for a layered cut with long, sideswept bangs that start at the cheekbones
At-home styling: Add a light mousse for some volume before styling. Blow-dry hair with a round brush, lifting at roots and making sure to make ends smooth and straight (to avoid a bubble look)
The Look: Long on Style
Ideal for: Straight hair
At the salon: Ask for a long, angled cut with long, wispy bangs angled around the face.
At-home styling: Blow-dry with flat brush (add volumizing mousse first if hair is fine) and finish styling with a flat iron. Use pomade on ends to texturize and add definition.
The Look: Pixie
Ideal for: Straight hair
At the salon: Ask for very short layers with very short bangs.
At-home styling: Blow-dry with fingers for a tousled look. For a more polished look, use a small, round brush to smooth hair around the face and crown. Finish both looks with a texturizing paste or pomade for definition.
The Look: Swept Away
Ideal for: All hair types
At the salon: Ask for a shoulder-length, texturized, layered cut with angles cut around the face, starting at the cheekbones.
At-home styling: Use a round brush to flip hair out as you blow-dry. Work hair wax or pomade into dry hair for a wispy, piecey look.

The Look: Siren
Ideal for: All hair types
At the salon: Ask for long layers throughout with long and low angles around the face, and layers in the back.
