32 new hairstyles for 2012


Who says you have to stop playing with your hair? Here are 32 new styles—for every length and texture—to try in 2012.

SMOOTH WAVES

Being a bombshell is easier than you’d think. For these gorgeous Marilyn waves, just prep your hair with mousse such as Paul Mitchell Flexible Style Sculpting Foam, then blow-dry it upside down for volume. Create a side part, then set the hair in pin curls. When your hair is cool, gently brush it out to create a swooping wave near the crown and soft curls at the ends.

BAD-GIRL BLOWOUT

To give your blowout an edge, try adding volume. Start by combing a volumizing mousse such as Garnier Fructis Style XXL Volume Thickening Mousse through wet hair, then blow-dry it upside down, using your fingers to rake through the strands. Flip your head upright while the hair is still warm, part it in the middle, and wrap two-inch sections around medium-size Velcro rollers. After ten minutes, take out the rollers and spray dry shampoo (we swear by Klorane Gentle Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk) from the ears down for a rough finish.

PULLED TOGETHER
Three-dollar Goody Jenna Barrettes were all over the fall runways, including Prada’s (shown here). While we don’t recommend piling on over 100, adding just one gives the hair a smooth, pulled-together appearance. Pull half of your hair back and secure with a clip, or add one above your ponytail.
LACY CHIGNON
First, comb a thickening lotion such as Bumble and Bumble Really Thickening Serum through damp hair from mid-shaft to ends and blow it dry with a round brush. Gather the hair into a side ponytail, back-comb it to add volume, and use pins to secure it in a bun. Then, place a long piece of lace at the hairline and tie it around the elastic. Fold one end of the material over the bun and pin it underneath with bobby pins, cutting off any excess lace. Don’t stress about making it perfect—”the less time you spend, the better,” says hairstylist Ken O’Rourke.
EASY WAVES
Spritz clean, dry hair with leave-in conditioning spray (we like Aveeno Nourish + Condition Leave-In Treatment), then wrap random sections of the hair around a half-inch curling iron, starting two inches from the roots and leaving a few inches of hair untouched at the ends. Loosen waves with your fingers, then smooth a curl-enhancing cream such as Bumble and Bumble Curl Conscious Calming Creme over the hair for added shine.

FRENCH TWIST

To create this elegant style, hairstylist Garren set the top layer of hair in pin curls, then brushed them out for voluminous, soft waves. After teasing the hair at the crown, he gathered it at the nape, pulled one side taut, and rolled the other side over. Voilà.

BOUNCY BLOWOUT

Give your blowout a makeover—and some movement. First, apply a setting lotion such as Lea Journo La Forme Styling Lotion to damp hair and blow-dry upside down to build volume. Once your hair is 80 percent dry, separate it into four parts and roll each section into extra-large Velcro rollers. Take out one roller at a time and dry that section using a round boar-bristle brush and the nozzle attached to your dryer. Finish drying each section by smoothing it with the dryer and brush, then winding the brush up to your scalp like a roller and leaving it there until your hair cools.
SLEEK TWIST
Perfect for those days you wake up late, this wet style takes three minutes. First, mist damp hair with leave-in conditioner such as Nexxus Botanluxe Nourishing Botanical Leave-In Conditioner, then brush it into a high ponytail and secure with an elastic. Twirl the tail until it becomes a tight coil, pin into place, and tuck the ends underneath. Finish up by rubbing a drop of serum such as Redken Shine Brilliance Glass 01 Smoothing Serum over the top for shine.
HALF-LOOPED
To get the ethereal style seen at 3.1 Philip Lim fall 2011, hairstylist Odile Gilbert gathered the top half of the hair into a ponytail, pulling it halfway through the elastic in a loop. She used a three-pronged iron to create rippling waves on the remaining half of the hair. (A good one to try: Hot Tools Gold 3 Barrel Waver Spring Iron.)
HALF-FULL
For this soft, sexy look, like the one at Nina Ricci fall 2011, set the hair in large pin curls, then remove after ten minutes and tease the roots at the crown for volume. Take a section above each ear, crisscross them at the back of your head, and fasten with pins. “It’s very French—very Bardot,” says hairstylist Guido, who created the look, shown here.
HALF-UP SIDE PONY
Smooth the upper half of the hair back as if you were going to tie it in a basic ponytail, but instead of securing it at the back of the head, pull it to the side. “In the middle, it’s just too normal,” says hairstylist Orlando Pita, who created the look for Giambattista Valli fall 2011 show, shown here.
LOW CHIGNON
This updo is neat without looking too obsessive. For the soft style, Garren set the hair in medium-size hot rollers. Once the rollers had cooled, he brushed the curls out, teased the hair at the crown, then swept everything to the side to create the dip in the front and used pins to secure the ends in a tight chignon at the nape.
BASKET WEAVE
Here’s a fun twist on the old scarf-tied-in-a-ponytail trick (and a great pop of color). First, pull your hair into a low ponytail and attach a bright scarf to the elastic. Then, braid the scarf into two sections of hair and loop it into a bun.

ACCESSORIZED PONYTAIL

Just as jewelry dresses up jeans and a T-shirt, hair accessories—like this headband at the fall 2011 Nina Ricci show—kick a basic ponytail up a notch. Start by lightly teasing the roots at the crown of your head, then smooth hair back and secure with an elastic at the nape of your neck. Slip on the band, keeping it no more than one inch back from your hairline.

FULL PONYTAIL

The secret to this textured style is shine. After applying mousse (try Tresemmé 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse) to damp hair from roots to ends, blow-dry your hair. Create a center part and fasten the hair into a ponytail at the nape. Wrap one-inch sections around a quarter-inch curling iron and tease the length of the ponytail with a paddle brush. Use a silicone-free shine spray (we love Aussie Spray Gloss) to smooth your hair from your hairline back to the elastic. Add a jeweled accessory behind the ear for drama.

TEASED PONYTAIL

Give your ponytail a boost—with volume. After spritzing salt spray (we recommend Biosilk Beach Texture) at the crown for texture, mist the rest of the hair with a volumizing spray such as Sebastian Professional Volupt Spray and rough-dry it with a blow-dryer. Then, create a deep side part with the first three inches of hair from the hairline and section that part off. Set the rest of the hair at the crown in Velcro rollers for ten minutes. When you remove the curlers, tease the hair and spray all over with a dry shampoo like Sachajuan Volume Powder. Brush the front section off the ears and secure with an elastic at the nape of the neck. Pull the rest of the hair back and tie it all together into one low ponytail.
TOUGH HAIR
You (thankfully) don’t have to skip the shower for this grungy, wet look, seen at the spring 2011 Prada show. After curling dry hair from the ears down, rake mousse (we love L’Oréal Professionel Texture Expert Lift Extrême Mousse) from roots to tips to add “an edge,” says Guido. Skip hair spray, which tends to make wet-looking hair stiff and crispy.
