Side Swept Hair– Tutorial, Products and Pictures
Finally back with my latest requested video for side swept curls. This hair style looks equally great neat or messy and is a great way to show off your favourite statement earrings without having to do an up-do. Product wise I used Redken All Soft Argan-6 followed by Nak Heat beat to prep my hair before heat styling.
After my hair was prepped I used my Babyliss Pro Large Conical wand (last seen here) to curl. Once each section was curled I used bobby pins to ‘roll them up and let cool.
The hairspray I used was Herbal Essences Tousle Me Softly Flexible Hairspray but I would probably recommend more of a lacquer style hairspray if you wanted this style to really last (fine for long hair though). Instead of using a plain shine spray I opted to use the Schwarzkopf 10 Carat Shine Gloss Finish Spray as it doubles as a hair spray too!
If your hair was on the shorter side I’d suggest possibly using a small amount of a strong wax to twist the hair to the other side.
Here’s the video…
…and finished look!
So hopefully this was useful for someone, I know this style has been ‘trending’ for a while now but seems to still be a popular choice.
Yes my hair is a bazillion colours right now. Any requests?

to disclose, Redken Argan-6 was sent for trial (not for the blog though), and you already know the wand was too a while back but I’ve already done that post!

Your hair looks gorgeous with those curls. So hot. It’s quite short now that the extentions are gone, but still lovely.

Thank you! Yep I cut over 6 inches off my real hair, still deciding if I want a few more off.

This style is lovely, I don’t think my hair is long enough to do it yet, but I’m working on growing it out! I LOVE your hair and makeup, it’s so rare to see someone be more daring with colour.

So gorgeous! I have the Sultra and I really need to start pinning it like you do so the curls stay better.

The curls are fantastic! How I wish I have the same patience as you have in curling my hair.
BTW, your hair color looks so cute!

I totally love this look (as well as your hair and make-up). I am definitely checking your blog regularly. Mine is in it’s infant stage, but I’m a big fan of crazy hair color and make-up as well and don’t really adhere to any particular fashion genre.
