Taylor Swift has always been known for her signature hairstyles from her early days as a country singer to her current reign as a pop sensation. Professional stylist Issac Ng gives a breakdown on how to create iconic looks of the pop sensation Taylor Swift with the help of Dyson’s Hair Care range. Whether you’re a fan of her classic curls or long bob, follow this step by step by guide to create stunning hairstyles.
1. Speak Now: The singer embraced more structured hairstyles, often seen with elegant updos, moving onto larger, more voluminous curls during her Speak Now Era, with Airwrap multi-styler 40mm barrel now being the attachment of choice.
To achieve this look:
=Begin with clean, dry hair. Use the Round Volumising Brush attachment to build volume around the crown area.
= Use the Airwrap multi-styler with the 40mm barrel attachment for styling for loose, bouncy curls. End with a Cold Shot after curling each tress to set the style in place.
= Gather all of your hair, and secure it with a hair tie, making sure to leave a few curls to frame the face. Smooth out any flyways or frizz with the Supersonic Flyaway Smoother attachment, which uses controlled airflow to tame unruly hair, or swap the attachment on the Airwrap out with the Coanda Smoothing Dryer to smooth out flyaways.
= Finish with a light mist of flexible-hold hairspray or finishing spray to keep the style in place for a longer period while maintaining its soft, natural movement.
2. Red: This Era saw Taylor Swift saying goodbye to her curls and hello to volumized tousled, barely-there waves which of course, brings the Corrale straightener into play.
To achieve this look:
= Start with clean, dry hair. Use the Corrale straightener to straighten each section of hair. Begin at the roots and slowly glide the straightener down the length of your hair, ensuring even heat distribution and sleek results.
= To accentuate the layers in your hair, use the Corrale straightener to flick the ends outward slightly. Take small sections of hair and gently curve the straightener outward as you reach the ends, creating a soft, layered effect.
= Use the Supersonic hair dryer with the Gentle Air attachment to lift and volumize the roots. Flip your head down and blow dry your hair in sections, focusing on the roots to create maximum volume and lift. This will add dimension to your layered hairstyle.
= Set the style with a light mist of hairspray to lock in the sleek, straight look. Use your fingers to tousle and fluff up the roots for added volume and texture.
1989: Taylor Swift embraced a shorter hairstyle during this Era, unveiling a lob with gentle waves throughout, while also reintroducing her iconic side bang. This symbolized her transition to pop music and marked a new chapter in her career.
To achieve this look:
= Start with clean, towel-dried hair. Apply a smoothing serum or cream to damp hair to tame frizz and add shine. Use the Supersonic hair dryer to completely dry your hair followed by using the Corrale straightener to straighten your hair. Pass the machine down each tress slowly for a natural straight style.
= Part your hair to the side, allowing a section of hair to fall across your forehead as side bangs. Use the Corrale straightener to straighten the bangs, gently curving it to the side for a soft, face-framing effect. Use the straightener to lift and volumize the roots.
= Once your hair is straightened and styled, set the look with hairspray to keep everything in place for a longer period.
