How to Hack Your Date Night Look
February 09, 2020In the month of love, there’s loads of styling that need to be done. But with your busy schedule, there isn’t a lot of time for you to set an appointment with your stylist. In the pursuit of great style, we went on the hunt around the world for some of the most inspired hairstyles that are easy for you to recreate. So whether it’s for a date night on Valentine's day or getting ready for prom season, here are some awesome tutorials we found to get you started.
#1 Criss-cross Half-Up Hairstyle with a Twist
If you’re running late for your date then this style is perfect for you. Simple, elegant and best of all effortless, with just a few pins you can get your hair up and ready in a few easy moves.
If you have medium or short hair, try this style instead. The trick to these styles begins with smooth frizz-free hair. Use the Davines Liquid Spell , it strengthens and compacts the hair fiber while adding volume and body. Plus, it has the right amount of light natural hold.
#2 Hollywood Waves
A style that's easy relaxed but still offers a lot of class to a special night out is this self-styled Hollywood waves. All you’ll need is your curling wand and some professional styling products to get this curled hair to last all night long.
#3 Textured Bob
Not all dates are slow romances. If you’re looking for a fun style, we love this textured bob by Bed Head. It’s the perfect match for a fun carefree date. Youthful with some serious volume, this look is for those ready to party.
Get some easy volume and texture for this look with Bed Head by TIGI Small Talk: 3-in-1 Thickifier, Energizer, Stylizer, ₱ 1,300, that adds body and volume while defining curls and separates strands for noticeable texture.
#4 No Heat Curls.
Sleep while you style? For a style you can start way in advance, these romantic curls can be done the night before your big day and offer a no-heat solution to curling your hair.
Don’t have a curler set? Try this one by Marcela Tumas who uses just bow on a bathrobe to achieve her long lush curls.
We do recommend you hold it in place with Schwarzkopf Silhouette Super Hold Mousse, ₱ 1,330 that provides maximum volume and hold while maintaining great shine.
#5 Braided Ponytail
There are a lot of curls on our list. So we decided for this final look that we would do a braided updo that's the right amount of class and fun. Among the romantic styles we've selected though, this may prove to be a bit of a challenge for those who don’t have a lot of braiding experience. Fret not, as this look is meant to look messy chic.
For this look get your favorite hair serum. Ours is L'Oréal Serie Expert Absolut Repair Gold 10-in-1 Perfecting Oil, ₱ 1,700, an iconic oil for damaged hair that instantly softens and shines. To add just a bit of hold you may also want to use L'Oreal Tecni.Art Savage Panache 250ml, ₱ 930, this will help hold your braids and soft waves.
That's it. From all around the world we looked for some great styles that are sure to make you feel confident and relaxed for date night. Just remember, a great attitude (plus nice hair wouldn't hurt either) is what it takes to enjoy your romantic night out.
