Hairdressing is one of the most popular for decades. Today it’s easier to name a Hollywood star or a famous singer who never wore a square than to list all who wore such a hairstyle. And this is not surprising, because quads are for almost everyone.
Preparing hair for styling at home
The most important thing to do before styling is to wash your hair. You can use special products that give them shine and ease of styling or shampoo to add volume.
Since almost all of the caret styling options require the use of a hairdryer, ironing or trowel, a good product with thermal protection properties will be required. To fix the styling and make the hair more supple, you will need to apply foam or mousse on them.
Do not rush to dry your hair immediately. Some installations require them to be wet. Therefore, carefully consider your plan of action.
Perfect smoothness
This is perhaps the easiest option for laying a square, which is suitable not only for an evening out, but also for a casual look. Perfectly smooth shiny hair, laid hair to the hair, will undoubtedly adorn any solemn image.
To do this styling, you will need:
- Mousse medium fixation with thermal protection.
- Wax for tips.
- The iron for straightening.
To style your hair, wash it and dry it slightly with a towel. Then comb and blow dry. On clean, dry hair, apply the mousse with your fingers or a comb, spreading it over its entire length. Also now is the time to think about which part you want to do:
- In the middle - suitable for a square with and without bangs, requires perfectly smooth straight strands.
- Side - it can be either slightly offset from the face to the side, or made completely on the side, closer to the ear. In this case, the hair combed on its side can be stabbed with a hairpin or fixed with varnish.
If you want a structured evening styling on a square, when all the strands will lie flat and perfectly smooth, then choose a straight part. It suits the owners of regular features, making the image very elegant and sophisticated.
With a direct parting, it is important to give the hair a moderate volume at the roots. Too much volume will make the image doll-like and shift the emphasis from perfect smoothness, and the lack of volume will make shiny elongated hair the way it looks on the second day after washing, that is, not fresh. A side part is less demanding, but it is not too suitable for smooth styling.
So, having done a straight parting, pull the hair strand by strand with the help of ironing. Do not hold the iron for a long time, slide them through your hair so as not to dry them. Twist the strands at the ends slightly inward or leave them straight if the image requires. At the end, draw some wax on your fingers and run them over the tips to make them clearer.
Curls
Curls or curls are able to make the image playful or romantic. It depends on what the curls will be - tight or slightly twisted. To create them, you can use a curling iron or ironing. You will also need foam or mousse for volume and varnish for fixing styling.
To begin, apply a little styling agent to the hair, and then divide it into parts and proceed to wrap, separating small strands. Move from the back of the head, twisting the hair in the right direction. You can twist all the strands in one direction, for example, to the face or from the face, or you can make curls in different directions to get a more romantic evening styling on the square.
You can also create light careless waves. To do this, use styling foam and a hairdryer with a diffuser. Wet hair with a blow dryer with a nozzle, tilting your head forward. Spread the strands with your hands, twisting them with your fingers, and do not comb. At the end, styling can be lightly sprayed with varnish.
Hollywood wave
This is a special way of curling and styling hair, in which they look like a wave laid on one side. Such a styling of a square will allow you to create a bohemian retro look that perfectly complements a chic evening dress in the style of old Hollywood.
For hairstyles you will need:
- Hair foam.
- Fixing varnish.
- Clamps.
- Large diameter conical curling iron.
To begin, comb the hair in a straight deep parting on the side and apply modeling foam on them. Separate one strand and wind it on a curling iron to the face with a spiral. Carefully remove the curling iron and fix the lock with clamps in those places where bends have formed. Proceed to the next strand. All of them must be wound in one direction and fixed with clamps in order to maintain a single wave. When the hair has completely cooled, sprinkle it with varnish, remove the clips and comb with a comb with rare teeth.
On the side
We have already noted that the styling option is perfect for a caret when the hair is laid on its side. At the same time, on the other hand, they are maximally retracted back and open the ear. Such a styling will suit beautiful massive earrings or a set of one long bright earring (it will be clearly visible) and a small second earring covered with hair.
For this styling, do a parting on one side and comb all the hair on the opposite side. From the open side, braid your hair in a pigtail from the temple. Fix the tip of the braid at the base of the neck with an invisible one, hiding it in the hair. If you have a bang, comb it on the other side, even with the bulk of the hair.
Loose hair from the other side can be ironed or curled. You can also fix a beautiful hairpin on the open side.
A bunch
If your square is not too short, then you can make a beautiful bunch out of it, which is perfect for an evening look. The bundle can be smooth or disheveled, can be combined with weaving or plaits, or be complemented by a hair ornament.
For such a hairstyle you will need:
- A styling product that gives your hair smoothness and shine.
- Scrunchy.
- Studs and invisible.
- Roller for the beam.
Previously, the strands can be wound onto a curling iron, so that laying on a square with volume is obtained. You can also comb the back of your head slightly to get extra volume. Next, collect the hair in a ponytail and twist it around the elastic, pin it with hairpins. If the volume of hair is not enough, you can put a special bagel or roller on the elastic band and twist the tail around it. Short knocked out strands can be pinned with invisibility. The bundle can be made both on the crown, and on the back of the head or on the side.
Babette
This is the name for a retro-style hairstyle, very popular today. This is a high pile over the forehead, which can be done using a special roller or lining. Such styling is also suitable.
To do this, with a horizontal parting, separate the upper part of the hair above the ears. Comb this hair from bottom to top with a comb with frequent cloves. Place a roller or chignon under this hair, and top your combed hair. Pin everything with studs and sprinkle with varnish. The remaining hair can be left loose, to do this, pull them out with an iron.
You can also take two strands on the sides of the face and chop them back under the babette, covering the place where it is attached to the hair.
Kare back
This is an option for laying a square without a bang. In it, the bulk of the hair is removed from the face and combed back. On moist hair, apply a little foam for volume. It is especially important to distribute the foam on their basal part. Next, take a round brush with a large diameter and blow-dry your hair, moving it back and up with a brush. Fix everything well with varnish.
If hair falls on your face, lock it on the sides with invisibility. In this hairstyle, it is very important to create volume on the top of the head, so when laying, lift the strands with a comb.
In approximately the same way, you can create a more extravagant laying of a square at home, in which the crown rises up.
To do this, the hair needs to be dried by lifting and creating volume, and the strands remaining behind should be pinned up and fixed well with varnish.
