Valentine's Day is approaching ... You already know exactly where and with whom you will meet, you bought a dress, signed up for a manicure and thought out the makeup... But what about the hair? What hairstyle should be done for Valentine's Day? Leave the everyday styling that your man is used to, or surprise him with something unusual and festive? We offer the top 5 win-win options for the most fashionable hairstyles 2020 for Valentine's Day.

Perfect smoothness

The main trend of modern fashion is the pursuit of practicality and versatility, simplicity and brevity, comfort and convenience. And this concerns not only clothes and accessories, but also makeup, manicure and, of course, the creation of beautiful festive hair looks. The easiest styling you can do yourself at home is perfectly smooth straight hair that will make it look beautiful and well-groomed.

In this case, it does not matter how long the curls are - up to the shoulders or to the waist. It is also not too important whether they are straight to the very ends or slightly curled at the bottom. The most important thing is to create perfect smoothness and mirror shine. The easiest way is to dry the curls with a hairdryer with an air guide nozzle and using a special brush. Remember to keep the hair dryer away from your hair to avoid drying it out. And don't ignore thermal protectors.

If you wish or if necessary, you can stretch your hair with a wide iron or a narrower curling iron. Here, too, you will have to use a spray with overheating protection. After styling is complete, you can apply a conditioning oil to the ends of your hair. Just don't do this BEFORE using a hair dryer or iron! A high-gloss finish spray or a light hairspray without strong hold is an excellent option.

Hollywood curls

Even those who constantly wear straight hair or pull it into a ponytail or bun, from time to time strive to make beautiful curls. Especially when it comes to a holiday, and you want to look not just romantic, but stunning, like a Hollywood star. Well, it is the "Hollywood styling" in the form of large curls that will be just right for Valentine's Day - simple and seductive at the same time!

Options for curls that start not from the root, but from the middle of the hair length look especially impressive. In this case, you need to try to create sufficient volume at the roots. In some cases, if the hair is thin and lacking in volume, you can make a light bouffant and fix the roots with varnish. Smaller and lighter waves can be used on shoulder length or shorter hair. They do not "remove" the length as much as voluminous and large curls and curls. To create them, you can use not a round curling iron or curlers, but a triple curling iron for light waves.



But Hollywood styling does not imply small curls, but namely voluminous large curls. The strands should go one to one - this is a variation of perfectly smooth and neat waves in a retro style. These can be done using a narrow iron or a special curling iron. You can also wash your hair, towel dry, apply styling foam or mousse, and roll individual strands into curlers. It is convenient to use velcro curlers or heat rollers to which you can direct the warm air of a hair dryer.

Ponytail and bun

Accustomed to the fact that your hair is collected and does not bother you? Then your option for Valentine's Day is a high ponytail or bun. The pony tail hairstyle is relevant no matter the situation, the season, or the clothes you wear. It is appropriate in the office, and in training, and on a date.And yes, for Valentine's Day, you can also make a high ponytail and look very elegant at the same time.



You can opt for perfectly smooth, slicked back hair. It is worth laying them using styling foam (use it on wet curls) or using a gel that gives smoothness and shine. Conversely, you can comb the bangs slightly and lift them up to create disco-style volume. Or you can even leave the bangs and front strands around the face, not gathered in a tail. This will add playfulness and deliberate negligence.

Braids and weaving

Braids, braids and a wide variety of weaving have not gone out of fashion for several seasons in a row. You can create a very spectacular hairstyle when the hair is completely pulled up and braided into curly braids. And you can use braids on loose hair, taking only the bangs, upper or side strands into the braid.

One of these options with loose curls is the "waterfall" braid. It weaves, starting from the bangs and encircling the head in a circle. And loose loose strands seem to "pour" down from it - hence the name. Loose hair under the pigtail looks spectacular if curled into light weightless curls. The braid itself around the head can be single, asymmetrical, or you can braid two identical braids on both sides so that they "meet" in the middle of the back of the head.



The French braid also looks beautiful, but not ordinary, but "inverted", it is much more voluminous and festive. In this case, the strands are braided not under each other, but over. After you fix the braid with an elastic band, you should additionally "disassemble" the braided strands, fluff them up, and make them more voluminous visually. Braiding two French braids can create an innocent and playful country look - checkered shirts and dresses, jeans and denim sundresses are perfect.

Use hair accessories

Don't forget about hair accessories: they can turn ordinary everyday styling into a bright and festive one in an instant. Today, beautiful "twigs" for styling are considered the most fashionable - they are suitable even for wedding hairstyles, and even on Valentine's Day they will look especially romantic. They can be made of pearls, beads and beads, rhinestones and stones, artificial flowers.

By the way, about flowers: if your look for Valentine's Day is delicate and feminine, insert a flower or even several into your hair. Will it be a bright red passionate rose or delicate snow-white daisies - you decide. It also depends on the outfit you choose and the place where you celebrate on February 14th.



From hairpins, volumetric snap-on options with spectacular decor: rhinestones, pearls, beads are definitely suitable. They resemble "school" hairpins, and therefore are very convenient to securely fix naughty strands or create a beautiful decorative accent in the hairstyle.



For the tail, use invisible thin elastic bands, and tie them with ribbons on top. In favor - strips of lace and guipure, ribbons of shiny satin or iridescent velvet, fabric cuts in sequins, beautiful silk multi-colored shawls and scarves. The longer the piece of fabric, the more effective, and the ribbon can also be woven into a braid.



And another mega-relevant accessory in 2020 is a headband and a hair hoop. If earlier the bezel was worn in order to keep the naughty bangs, now it is a bright accent in any image. Headbands can be inlaid with rhinestones, stones, pearls, beads, sequins, or they can be covered with a beautiful fabric in the color of your outfit.
