When it comes to women’s hairstyles, I’ve found that people generally fall into one of two camps: Those who love straight hair, and those who prefer waves and/or curls. My personal taste, however, is somewhere in the middle: I like it when women have gorgeous mostly-straight-but-kinda-wavy hair. Not sure what I’m talking about? Check out America Ferrera on the red carpet! This ‘do is exactly what I’m talking about, and women everywhere can replicate the look at home with ceramic flat irons. Even though ceramic flat irons are hugely popular styling tools, not everyone knows that they can be used to create waves or even curls in addition to giving your hair a smooth, straight appearance. If you want America’s hair, start by blowdrying clean hair and applying a shine serum with heat protectant. Then straighten your hair with a ceramic flat iron in 1″ sections; when you get near the bottom of each section, a simple flick of the wrist will give your hair a little wave! Then give yourself a side part and tie your hair back in a low ponytail at the nape of your neck. You will love this look! It’s so easy to do, and it can look both casual and fancy, depending on how you accessorize and what you’re wearing.
