Here at GLHQ, it’s birthday season­. Over half of our office members have fall birthdays, which means one thing—parties! You know we’ll take any excuse to get dolled up, and we’ve been searching high and low for fab new hairstyles to rock (buh-bye, boring bun) and of course, to share with you! Luckily, celebrity hairstylist Ashley Hanna of NYC’s mizu salon is spilling her fave red-carpet hair hints.
 
Sel’s loose updo
 

Ashley loves this style on girls with natural texture, curls or waves. Begin by applying a bit of dry texturing spray to give the hair a little hold, she says. Pull all the hair up into a very loose French twist and secure with bobby pins (making sure they match your tresses!) Use fingers to loosen hair around the face and add a bit more texutrizing spray, Ashley tells us.
 
 
TIGI Rockaholic Groupie Text Spray, $12, drugstore.com
 
Beyonce’s bouncy side pony
 

Get B’s gorge look by blowing out your hair with blow drying crème applied to your roots, Ashley shares. Once dry, begin wrapping 2-inch sections of hair around a large-barrel curling iron to get that beautiful soft wave. Spray superfine hairspray on each section to lock in the curls. Then, part hair on one side and smooth into a pony. Finish with a light mist of anti-humidity and shine spray.
 

Twisted Sista Blow Drying Crème, $5, twistedsistashop.com

 

 
Kourtney’s glam waves
 

With wet hair, create a side part, then use a tiny bit of serum to smooth over hair, working from the crown of your head down to about ear level. Using a flat brush and blow dryer, smooth hair until desired look is achieved.
 
Then, using a 1 in. curling iron, begin curling hair, changing the direction of each curl you curl to get a loose, relaxed look, says Ashley. Spray texturing spray from below the ear all the way to the ends before curling each section. After all your hair is curled, use a wide-tooth comb (fingers work well, too!) and lightly brush through curls while misting an anti-frizz spray. Spritz on a light mist of hairspray and head out the door!

MOD MOD MOD My besties sweet 16 is in february and i want to make it really special. she says shes going to have a tea party with like 5 of her closest friends(including me). i was wondering if you had any ideas of what to get her? She likes to ice skate so i already got her cheetah print earmuffs that im going to bedazzle the headband part(she loves rhinestoned headbands) she also does ballet and we are in the school play together. Any ideas??? Thanks so much Laughing

 

Hey girl, maybe you could get her a really cute dance bag for ballet. Forever21 has some cute cheap bags. You could get her a journal, nice calendar, fashionable tights, or ipod case. Hope this helps! Smile Smile

so tomorrow i am going to a friend's b-day dinner.
i am planing on wearing this black n' white striped fancy shirt with a robin egg blue color scarf which is kinda puffy.
sense the scarf is kinda puffy, i want to do an up-do with my hair, but i don't know what up-do i should wear, cuz my hair goes to my shoulders. this is a fancy place so please don't say a pony tail.
thanx so much!!!
xoxo sail
PS sorry this was so long Smile




Hey girl,

Try a French twist! See the first 'do (the Selena one) at that link. So gorgeous and super fancy, while also being kinda sassy!

So my school has this dance thats like a prom for sophomores and I have noo idea how I should do my hair. My hair is a little bit longer than shoulder length with layers and side bangs. What are some cute hairstyles I could do? Smile




Hey girlie,

Try doing a cute little updo! It's easy to do but also a little more special than the everyday-ponytail you do for school. Try #25 on this article - I looove it Smile

I want to get a haircut, but I'm not sure what to do. My hair is currently an inch or two above my bra strap, long layers, fairly thick and straight. My face is oval/heart shaped. I don't really want bangs because my forehead is acne-prone. Do you have any ideas? Also, what are some cute hairstyles for this?




Hey babe! 

You can go short - really short, like Emma Watson! I think it takes courage to rock that hairstyle!  I think it's also pretty to get whisky tapered layers or a tousled bob. Let me know what you decide! xoxox

ok so i lovee these hair styles but the only thing is is that if i curl my hair, in the matter of 5 minutes the curls fall out even though i like literally use a whole can of hairspray. Any sugestions?

MOD,MOD,MOD ok my face shape is an oval.....should i get long layers for my hair? i really want to change my hairstyle because its been the same for years so it bores me. if it helps i have long straight hair,.....sooo should i get layers?

 

Hey chica, yup layers would really fit your face nice. They would help accent your facial shape. Smile Smile

Hey girlie,

In my experience, deciding whether or not to get layers generally depends on your face shape.

can u give us hairstyles that are EASY to do before school and don't require a lot of time, rather then curling your hair and french twisting an updo and blowdrying and curling a ponytail?
thank you so much and sorry if i sound ungrateful cuz im really not.

Braids, ponytails, etc. are all quick styles that will look fab!

MOD! I got the lead roll in my school's play, and my character is supposed to be 'Young and beautiful in a gothic way', but I have blonde hair and blue eyes. SOOO the director wanted me to dye my hair (I want to do dark brown, but I think he might make me do black which would look awful on me. Oh well). I don't want to permanently dye it, so how can I dye it without the cheap look that spray paint does?




Hey girlie,

Oy...that's a really big transformation to make! Personally, I wouldn't go with temporary dyes or sprays - they don't look real and are kind of a waste of time/money. Could you go with a wig? There are some really realistic wigs out there that could be perf for this part! Ask the director if this could be an option Smile

MOD MOD MOD!!!!!!! So my hair is really weird..... it's about sholder length and either curly and frizzy or wavy poofy and frizzy....... anyways I can never find anything to do with it since most hair ideas I fid are for longer hair so what should I do for school? I normally just wear it in a bun because I can't think of anything cuter to do..... thanks!




Hey girlie,

Try to mix things up - wearing it slightly different every day will make even that bun feel special once in a while! Wear it down loose and wild, up in the bun, dressed up with a sparkly headband, casually braided in a loose braid, pulled half-up-half-down, clipped back in the middle of your head on top, etc. There are lots of options... get creative and experiment!

I'm going to be a kitty devil on Monday, and I need a cute, but unique style. Help?




Hey girlie,

I think a sassy kitty costume would be totally cool. Choose whether you want to go in an outfit that's brown, grey, or black. Then I'd probably wear a tank top, yoga pants, and cardigan all in those colors. Then I'd pair a kitten ear headband with a devil tail, or wear both devil horns and cat ears together! Your attitude will be the part that seals the deal though!!

Okay girlies! I need some advice! Here's the sitch:
So, everybody thinks this guy likes me (he flirts with me constantly!), but he knows I like him, and always avoids the subject. When it's brought up he quickly changes it or ignores the person talking to him about it. What does this mean? THANKS!
