Now that 2013 has arrived, many women will seek out a new hairstyle. Remember to choose a style that reflects your personal look. So what’s next for hairstyles for 2013… the biggest trend is the effortless look for spring. 

Undone bun: Loosely curl the hair, this is great for second day hair. Use hairspray when curling then use hair powder to give a more matte finish. Pull hair into a high ponytail.  Back brush the ponytail, this creates a softer look than back combing, then wrap into bun and secure with bobbi pins.  To make it even more undone, lightly pull soft hairs around hairline out with hairspray or hair powder.

Side ponytail:  Lightly curl all the hair in the same direction using hairspray while curling.  Backcomb the hair at the roots then smooth the hair with a natural bristle brush to keep the hair soft and smooth with a little volume.  Pull the hair to either side and secure with a hair bungee. Use the same natural bristle brush and smooth ponytail.  Take a little bit of hair from the underside of ponytail and wrap around the bungee using hairspray as you wrap it around and secure with a hairpin.

Faux bob: Using a curling rod, curl the hair all in the same direction using hairspray while curling.  French braid the nape of hair securing with bobbi pins. Then take the hair in three sections.  Starting with the center, secure the ends with a bobbi pin and roll the hair under and pin the hair into the braid. Repeat with the other section using a mirror to check balance.

Textured waves: Begin with some hold products in the hair, and blow-dry the hair with some volume.  Backcomb the hair before curling each sect of the hair with a curling rod, this will ensure volume and a bit of airiness. Use hair powder all over after the hair is curled to keep the hair light and a matte texture.  Finish the look with a balm like grooming cream to smooth the ends a touch.  

The makeup in all four looks is neutral with a pop of bright color liner under the eye, such as blue, green and purple. The look was finished with a glossy lip. These looks are simple yet stylish that anyone can do.
