4. Straight Traces …

Do you prefer straight hair? Well, I have fantastic news for you: classic straight traces are very “IT” this year!

Parted in the middle, this hair style looks even more fabulous!

DYI:

Wash your hair, preferably give it a moisturizing treatment before styling. Air dry it well, make sure there are no damp hairs what so ever, otherwise you will make a major damage while straightening it. Then spray some heat protection on it and get to work with your hair straighteners.

First, split your parting down the middle, but try to keep it shallow. Then, straighten the hair in small strips, so that the hair is more heated and likely to stay straight for longer. Work your way from the back of the head to the front, and from the bottom to the top. Take your time.

Make sure you put the same pressure on the straightener all the way when you pull it through your hair, don’t linger on one strand if you do not want to damage your hair. And make sure your straightener temperature set on minimum, so that your hair doesn’t get fried. When you are done, put a little bit of a leave-in moisturizer (or oil) in your palm, brush your hand through your hair.
