Our friends at Great Lengths Hair Extensions have given us a step by step guide on how to recreate Adele’s look
The only way is up!
Here goes…let’s get the Adele look!
- Start off by making your job easier: set the hair using large rollers or curl using wide plate straighteners. This’ll make the hair more pliable and add volume and movement.
- Get sectioning into 4:
- 1.5″ section parted centrally to create the fringe.
- Top section behind the fringe from temple to temple, including the crown area.
- Below section b, from temple to temple just above the occipital bone.
- From nape to occipital bone.
- Start with section d: tie into a ponytail just above the occipital bone and gently backcomb throughout its length. Wrap the length of the tail around your index and middle fingers to create big barrel curl and secure tightly over the base of the ponytail. Be on bond-watch at all times!
- Section c is next up to form the sides and back of the style. Lightly backcomb the natural perimeter line to create volume at the sides. Take the hair back into a really loose ponytail and secure just below the crown. Don’t pull to tight as you’ll lose volume from the sides.
- Stand back and have a look: make sure the sections are perfectly blended so the look is soft. Allow the hair to sit over the first section line, smoothing over with a soft bristle brush. Depending on how much hair is left, either let the end fall softly over the barrel curl or twist around and pin then let the end drape around in a soft curl.
- Backcomb the top of the hair to achieve height. Bring the top back over to join the ponytail at the crown; make sure is lightly sweeps around the sides, blending with now harsh lines. Pin the ends over the ponytail to disguise the band.
- Voila! The fringe area should be worn softly away from the face. Finish with a light smoothing of Soft Finish Spray to secure.
