The Style Profile: How to Get Photo-Ready Hair Without a Stylist

Looking for the perfect hairstyles so you can look like you have been to the hairdresser salon every day, but without the cost? Want to be ready for a selfie at any time? Below are a few hairstyles you could try.

Perfect Hair Needs the Right Hair Products

If you want hair that shines, that is free of frizz and damage, or a style that holds, you need to make sure you are using the right serums and products for your hair. To find a great selection, check out Muk hair products.  

Below is a list of products and their uses:

• Beach Sea Salt Spray for achieving beautiful, natural curls
• Ultra Soft Leave-in Conditioner for hair prone to knotting
• Smoothing Serum to reduce frizziness
• Thermal Protector to prevent damage when blow waving, straightening or curling hair with a curling iron
• Hairspray to hold the style

Stylist-Perfect Curled Hair

Achieve this stunning look from home with less effort than you would expect, and have hair looking like you have just left the stylist every day. These loose curls are incredibly fashionable, especially on long hair.

Step 1: Spritz wet hair with a thermal protection spray. Apply the appropriate leave-in serums for your hair if you have dry or damaged hair, or if your hair is prone to frizziness or knots. 

Step 2: Blow wave and brush thoroughly. Heat up the curling iron. 

Step 3: Section the hair by tying up the majority of it on the top of the head. Take a small amount of hair and wrap it around the hot barrel of the curling iron and hold. Twist the hair first for a tighter curl. When one layer of hair is complete, let down the next layer and repeat the process. 

Step 4: Finish with a generous amount of hairspray. 

Side Plait

Looking for a style that is both comfortable and unique? A side plait is incredibly comfortable, as it keeps the hair out of the face, and is very cute and chic. 

Step 1: Apply a thermal protection spray and a taming or shine serum.

Step 2: Blow-wave the hair dry, and if you have a fringe or bangs, style them as usual.

Step 3: Tie the hair to one side beneath the ear lobe and plait. Mist with hairspray. 

Beach Babe Waves

Do you have naturally curly hair, but find it is often dull and flat? Or does it just turn into a mane of frizz? What you need is the right process and products to bring out your hair’s natural beauty. 

Step 1: Apply an anti-frizz or taming serum and a beach sea salt spray to wet hair.

Step 2: Scrunch the hair with her hands while still damp.

Step 3: Fix the style with hairspray.

Half up, Half Down, with a Bun

The perfect hairstyle for maximum style and comfort. With this hairdo, a professional woman could wear it to the office by day and to the cocktail bar for after-work drinks at night, without worrying that her hair could be out of place or the style would drop during that time. If you have a job that is more physical in nature, you won’t need to worry about constantly brushing your hair out of your face or putting it behind your ears.

Step 1: Mist wet hair with a thermal protector spray. Apply any of the serums in the above section that are required by your hair type. 

Step 2: Blow-wave your hair with a hairdryer, making sure you run the brush through any section you have the dryer on. Heat up your hair straightener as you do this step.

Step 3: Straighten your hair. You want to do a thorough job, to ensure there are no flyaways or missed curls.

Step 4: Run your pointer fingers through your hair, starting from just above the ear to the back of your hair, and collect the top half of your hair with your hands. With an elastic around your wrist, now tie up your hair in the way you would a ponytail, but don’t pull your hair all the way through on the last pass.

Step 5: Spray with hairspray. Do not miss this step, as it will keep your hair picture-perfect throughout the day and night!
