Greek style short hair

The hairstyle in the Greek style gives the image incredible femininity and romance.

An indispensable element of Greek hairstyles are a variety of hair accessories:

• shoelaces
• dressings
• chains
• tapes
• flowers
• hoops.

Accessories should be narrow enough and not lurid in style. Before styling, the hair must be washed, dried and curled, giving the curls a slight waviness and volume at the roots. Then the hair should be separated with a straight part, combed a little on the back of the head, adding volume, and put on a bandage over the hair.

The hairstyle will receive additional grace if the lateral strands are released over the bandage, partially hiding it.

Another version of the hairstyle is a roller. To do this, put on a bandage and tuck strands into it so that you get a roller. You can do without a bandage. To do this, a strand at the temple is folded into a flagellum, gradually tucking other strands towards it, folding a roller along the line of hair growth to the back of the head. The strands tucked into the roller are fixed with studs and varnish.

Laying “waves” with volume

The “wave” hairstyle for short hair can be styled in different ways, with or without heat treatment of the hair. An easy way to styling at home are curlers. For laying “wave” it is necessary to choose a curler of medium diameter. To give the hairstyle volume, it is necessary, twisting the strands, to raise them perpendicular to the head.

It is possible to get the waves with a hairdryer and a round brush, but the strands will have to be wound individually. The upper strands are lifted and fixed with clamps, the lower strands are screwed one by one onto the brush, treated first with hot, then cold air. Having processed the lower strands, the same thing is done with the upper strands.

In a similar way, you can make laying “wave” with the help of a curling iron . The upper strands are stabbed with clamps, the lower strands are wound in turn with a curling iron, while curls must be wound to the roots. Then the upper strands are wound with a curling iron, but not to the roots, but by two-thirds. As soon as all the strands are processed, the hairstyle is fixed with varnish.

Short hair styling

Using a diffuser you can get a very magnificent hairstyle. For short hair, a wide nozzle with short teeth is suitable. On the washed hair you need to apply styling and dry the hair with a diffuser, from the roots. Air flow of medium intensity. If you slightly rotate the diffuser, you get a light wave.

Laying a round comb for short hair

Round comb with proper use allows you to make a variety of styling. You can wind straight hair with the same comb and straighten curly hair. For short hair, it is necessary to choose combs with the smallest diameter. First, the hair must be washed and dried so that it is not wet, but moisture remains.

After that, apply styling mousse to the hair. The hair is divided into zones and in turn are wound on a round brush. The strands are pulled down from the face and treated first with warm air, then cold. When the hair dryer is set to high temperature, its nozzle should be located no further than 3’9 inch from the hair.

Styling with a hairdryer

For short hair, the brush should be as small as possible. Most effectively, the hair dryer twists the ends. To do this, slightly wind the ends of the hair onto the brush and hold for a short time.

If the hairstyle needs to be given extra volume, then you need to start with the roots and brush along the entire length of the strand. An even more convenient modification is a hair dryer with a rotating brush.

Short hair styling with bangs

Stacked bangs can be a highlight of the hairstyle. A very short haircut will look very feminine if you put the bangs with a hairdryer and a round brush upward.

A high forehead can be emphasized by laying the fringe back and giving it an extra volume of hair. Laying with a pile back is well suited for special occasions. On the contrary, a low forehead will correct the volumetric bangs. A bang of medium length can be curled in different ways or vice versa pulled out with an iron.

Side parting

Laying with a side parting is well suited for a face of almost any shape. For this styling you will need a comb with a long sharp end and a hairdryer. Lightly mousse styling must be applied to washed and dried hair. The sharp end of the comb marks a parting, the hair is combed on two sides along the parting line and is dried in this position.
